Though the 3D platformer genre is in decline, it's far from permanently dead.
Both Rare classics will feature widescreen and twin-stick support.
Surprised to see so little activity when it comes to evercade news... its been a great retro platform. I know its emulation, but they still believe in physical media. I'm hoping they will do something special with the Doom release later this year.
Rare's 3D platformer, Banjo-Kazooie has been fully decompiled, and a native PC port with dual analog controls is now available.
Jim Ward, the voice of Ratchet & Clank's Captain Qwark, has died aged 66.
Such a great, recognisable voice, from Captain Qwark to Doug Dimmadome Owner of the Dimmsdale Dimmadome, rest in peace Mr.Ward
Been replaying the R&Cs lately & the Qwark moments are guaranteed smiling ones.
A dark day. Rest in peace captain.
It's time for a Donkey Kong Country but in 3D. Or a sequel to Donkey Kong 64. Nintendo can let Playtonic make it.....exclusive of course. ;p
Ratchet & Clank '16 & Mirror's Edge: Catalyst were great 3D platformers this year
I own a WiiU. Trust me, 3D platformers are still going strong. The only reason they are in decline is Sony and Microsoft all but gave up on them, knowing Nintendo owns this genre and any 'competition' fell way short. Also, I prefer the mix of 2D and 3D. It shouldn't all be just 3D.
Were they ever gone ? XD
Ratchet & Clank (PS4) is amazing. Can't wait for Yooka Laylee
