Very simple games
This topic is about games that aren't so deep as Rayman ones, for instance, but are relatively easy to learn and play.

Re: Very simple games
The original Super Mario Bros. was the best platformer ever made. Not a very good story, and not really a deep world, but very fun to play, and it is very, very easy to learn how to play.

Re: Very simple games
I'm actually really enjoying the Zatcka game. It's simple, it's great fun, and it supports multiplayer (in case of clones, up to 9 players on 1-9 PCs).
Re: Very simple games
I'm with Sam here. Although my personal favorite remains Donkey Kong : country. It is quite simple too. The kremlins steal Donkey Kong's bananas. And it is set in quite many locations, for example, the mine, the tropical jungle... and it is great fun.
And gotta love the Kong's. Cranky Kong is one of my favorite characters.

Re: Very simple games
The sequel remains my favourite. Again, no really significant storyline (Save someone who has been kidnapped...that's a first) but one of my favourite game.

It took me years to beat Kirby 64, but it had an amazing ending. Epic. The literal definition of Epic. It's crazy. You unlock one more star after you collect all the shards, and it's one literally epic world, and the boss twists the whole story around.

Re: Very simple games
The Legendary Starfy. it is basically the descendant of the old Crash Bandicoot games (When they use to be platformers and good).

No, you must be thinking of the Jak & Daxter and Uncharted series.Henchman1028 wrote:The Legendary Starfy. it is basically the descendant of the old Crash Bandicoot games (When they use to be platformers and good).

Re: Very simple games
Nyah, Jak and Uncharted are very different, and there is no spinning (Well, Jak has it, but it is more shooting than spinning).spiraldoor wrote:No, you must be thinking of the Jak & Daxter and Uncharted series.Henchman1028 wrote:The Legendary Starfy. it is basically the descendant of the old Crash Bandicoot games (When they use to be platformers and good).

Re: Very simple games
They are the direct ‘descendants’ of the Crash Bandicoot series. Of course certain signature conventions (spinning) have to be left behind to move from one series to another, but the inheritance is clear. Even in the recent Uncharted games you can find echoes of Crash Bandicoot. The jungle ruins in Drake’s Fortune, for example, strongly resemble the crumbled architecture of N Sanity Island, and there are even similar set pieces (the sequence where you ride down a river while avoiding floating explosives is quite similar to some Crash 3 levels, and there are moments in both Uncharted games where your’re running straight towards the camera to escape from an approaching danger, something that happens in every Crash Bandicoot game). I haven’t played much of the Jak series but I do remember a boss-fight in the third one with similarities to the N Tropy fight and I’m sure there are a great many things I’m not aware of, considering how Naughty Dog had much less time to change between Crash and Jak than they did between Crash and Uncharted, as well as Jak being closer to a true platformer than Uncharted is. If Starfy has similar gameplay to Crash Bandicoot, I’d be more inclined to think of it as copy-cattery than as descendancy or kinship.

Re: Very simple games
Sadly, it seems that all people care about these days are FPSs.
Go play a platformer, morons!

Re: Very simple games
So platformers are an inherently superior genre to first-person shooters and anyone who disagrees with you is a moron? Okay.Henchman1028 wrote:Sadly, it seems that all people care about these days are FPSs.Go play a platformer, morons!

Re: Very simple games
It is true that most people these days play FPSs which are obviously bad and overrated (MW2, for example), and are all the same. I might just be living in the past, though.spiraldoor wrote:So platformers are an inherently superior genre to first-person shooters and anyone who disagrees with you is a moron?

I would make a snail and frog legs joke, but I know you and Hunch would probably kick my ass if I do.

Re: Very simple games
I think I am taking myself too seriously, I am sorry about that. Its just... I don't like FPSs. I hate those American guys who talk like they are in some sort of gang and yell USA! USA! (Newsflash, you are NOT the kings of the world!
) and those annoying kids who play those types of games when they really shouldn't, and bash everything else because of the lack of blood and gore and graphics!

Re: Very simple games
I'm american as well. I totally understand you man. Theres way too many MW2 addicts. And theres a bunch of stupid gangs, rednecks, gangsters, etc...Henchman1028 wrote:I think I am taking myself too seriously, I am sorry about that. Its just... I don't like FPSs.

But there are plenty of nice people and plenty of nice games. However I want to live in France...
And not ALL americans are idiots. Plenty of us are rather nice. Theres just places you wanna stay far away from... Worcester, Chicago, etc...
Nice peaceful places such as charlton, oxford, and southbridge are GREAT places.
Also I play modern warfare 2. It's not like I'm addicted to it, like I am with Rayman, it's just a very occasional game I pick up, like when my friends come over.
Just watch what you say on some posts. It sort of upsets and irritates people at times (yes this includes me). And saying "go play platformers morons" I agree with spiral, just because they like shooters doesn't mean anything wrong with 'em. It's what they like. Almost ALL of my friend have NEVER played a platforming game, and hey I get over it. If you can't beat 'em join 'em. Or just screw that and be your own person, I love platformers. Shooters I like meh... 75% I guess? I suck at them a lot. The only thing I hate about mw2 is online mode where 6 year olds come up and start screaming in the mics. It's totally obnoxious and annoying. Which is why I play with my friends.
