Forums - Gaming - 2d to 3d Transition: The Best and Worst of

Best: Already said a million times in this thread. (Also Mega man legends....I am pretty big fan of the series even with bad camera)

Worse: I didn't really play that many bad ones besides Castlevania.

Well, Mario, Zelda and Metroid worked well and........hang on a minute, this thread is 2 years old. -_-



2.5 year necro! I summon thee, from a time before David Cameron, from a time before Barack Obama! The dim year of 2008!

 

On topic: of course Mario 64. I mean, that we're even talking about games with "camera" problems owes entirely to that game, when it was literally meant to be a little dude with a camera



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Best I'd go with Zelda (no losses at all in transition) ,Metroid (super is fantastic, so is Prime get over it),Shining Series (holy ark or Shining force 3, both are great) or Missile Command (unfortunately almost none of you have had the chance to play the superb missile commando 3d on the Jaguar, one of its 15 or so good games) and Maybe Flashback, I haven't played Fade to Black in years and forget if it is great or just good

Worst Bubsy-take a terrible 2d platformer, poorly bring it into 3d and you get an explosively terrible 3d platformer,

also SOnic colors does finally break the sonic cycle, they dropped the butt-rock, massively decreased grinding, brought back multiple paths, slowed the game down to be more managible pace, brought back momentum platforming,  restructured the game worlds to smaller non-frustrating levels, and delivered visuals that call into question what 99.9% of other developers are doing on the wii.



I HAVE A DOUBLE DRAGON CAB IN MY KITCHEN!!!!!!

NOW A PUNISHER CAB!!!!!!!!!!!!!

everyone can agree 

Grand Theft Auto was the best transition 



Of Course That's Just My Opinion, I Could Be Wrong

Around the Network

Good: Virtua Fighter, Mega Man , Rival Schools and SFEX A,  FF, BoF, 

 

Bad: Mario, Metroid, Contra, Castlevania, Mario Kart, NBA games, NFL games, Spiderman games, X-men games, Ninja Gaiden games,  Oddworld  games 

I think most content that clicked with me in 3D was made that way for the first time. Most existing franchises and i.p. really transitioned badly for me.  I do miss the feeling of adventure the 5th generation had.  Lot's of new concepts that really felt new for me.   



Ewww, empty post!

 

What I was saying was:

I think it's very appropriate that this is a 2 year old necro, when the thread was started by BringBackChrono.  Nice time travel.

@OP, HOW DARE YOU INSULT BOMBERMAN 64!?!?  BEST BOMBERMAN EVER!!!!!!!!!!1111



Best - Mario

Worst - Castlevania
