3D Platformers, preferably 5th Gen style. Sadly those are being avoided like the plague since halfway through the 6th Gen, so today I'll take anything.

I agree. From the N64 collect-a-thons (SM64, Banjo) to PS1 Spyro, Crash, Ape Escape. That gen had the best collection of 3D platformers, nowadays 3D pure platformers like Galaxy which I liked, are few and far between.

Ratchet & Clank is good too, though it has more emphasis on weapons than platforming.

My words exactly .

Have only played Ratchet & Clank (I think it was the first one for PS3) a single time, briefly, maybe I should take a further look someday. I usually think a 3D Platform/Adventure hybrid like that works out well so those games might work for me.

I like 2D platformers but haven't really played 3D platformers except Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Galaxy. They were good games.

I'll go with 3D platformer, though I like 2D marios more, except for Mario 64 which is still my all time best platformer.

2D usually. We don't really get too many 3D platformers nowadays.

Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

2D by far. Enjoy both arcade and puzzle platformers. Don't really like 3D platformers at all.

2D platformers hold a slight edge for me.
