!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.

Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.

2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.

I should not need to explain this one.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

MegaMan Legends.

25 years and counting that our blue boy got stuck in space

It’s ok. Rayman Legends is better than any other game from the pictured IPs. Can’t improve on perfection.

Rayman legends ran so Mario Wonder could flounder (specifically on the music levels).

But there IS a new Rayman game coming. I think this is an old meme from before Crash 5 got cancelled?

  1. It is an old meme

  2. I had no fucking idea

  3. My hype is both dashed and recreated. this is a weird day

Meanwhile, Jak & Daxter and Sly Cooper languish as distant memories

While true and sad, I did just learn about OpenGOAL. The team has created a new engine to run the original code of Jak1 and Jak2 (working on 3), so you can now play them natively on PC! Jak1 has been working great, its a lot of fun to revisit!

No Sly Cooper remakes yet sadly, stealth games always get ignored.

Missing Zool and Earthworm Jim

I'd add Bubsy, but that cat did get a new game in 2017

On the other hand, Zero the Kamikaze Squirrel and Awesome Possum are right there!

I thinks it's time to admit that Rayman might have won the battle, but the Rabbids won the war 😔

[–] kadup@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago

The Rabbids game for the Wii was actually a fantastic party game for one or two afternoons of fun with family or drunken friends.

They just didn't have to shove Rayman in there at all. The game would've sold the same, and Rayman fans wouldn't be mad.

I've been playing Rayman on my Miyoo Mini, it's been a great throwback!
