A little monolouge, skip if you wanna KEEP your braincells
Que Passa!!!!
Well, I currently don't play Jazz as much as I did before. But heres the way I think about it;
Currently the gameing industry is making cell-shaded 3D games, and games that are so violent that they disgust me (Example; Grand Theft Auto) while, 2D games are seen as unrealistic (I say, if your trying to get realism, turn off the game and get a life- Oh GOD- I'm starting to sound like my MOTHER in this... I play unrealistic games for the same reason I watch unrealistic movies- they are both cool.)
But as you know, fads come and go, then return- heck, A couple of months ago, I saw an icon from my childhood being sold to the next generation: My Pet Monster was one of the coolest plushtoys I ever saw. Just last week, I found out that Maya the Bee(An old kiddy book/cartoon I liked- may have been the cause of my fasination with insects.) has made BOTH a game boy advenced game AND a game boy color game (Sadly, both are only available in Europe, or I would have bought them.).
And what have Game Boy advanced games mostly consisted of? OLD SNES AND NES GAMES. Seriously, do you think the 3 stooges game was designed this decade? They just took the same code, and added sounds.
Where am I getting at? Well, when the people start noticing that all 3D games are looking the same(Not to say that they all do now, but they will eventually- mark my word, especially with this current thing in which 'all games must be inventive and cover new teritory'. Heck, we never get to explore the territory we're already in.) where will they flock? 2D games. All the classics like Maui Mallard, Commander Keen, the boy and his blob, Aero the Acrobat,
And yes- Jazz Jackrabbit.
