I loved Spyro 2, Jack 2 and 3, and Astro Bot. Also enjoyed how punishing and challenging Crash 1 was.

I think Jak is better and more enjoyable than Astro Bot which I for some reason forgot about as soon as I finished it. But I voted Astro Bot because while I don't think it's the better series, it is the better and more pure "platformer".

Astro bot is Sony's Mario.

Astro Bot is a bit of a cheap shot. Astro's Playroom was superior to anything non-Nintendo that came before. Otherwise I would say Ratchet & Sly, though neither one is that much of a platformer when you really think about it (except for probably Sly 1).

Astro's Playroom is the game that comes with every PS5, it's great but quite short.

Yes that's the one I meant. I prefer it over Astro Bot actually, though both are great ofc.
