Sunshine was the best platformer of 2002, IMO. It wasn't the huge leap Mario 64 was, but then again, the GameCube isn't a time machine...;)

IMO, it was only a tad better than Ratchet and Clank/Sly Cooper, which is enough said all its own (both games are excellent on PS2). Thing is, nothing compared to Mario games back in the day, so methinks there's some work to be had within Nintendo if they want to keep that "classic" image with their greatest franchises...

I liked it. Getting all the shines got tedius, so I never did get them. But it was a good game no less.

Shine Get!

exactly :D

The game was fun, but not fun enough to complete it 100%

It was a great adventure to go through, but the mounds and mounds of people bitching about crappy textures and whatnot really gave it a bad reputation. But, I enjoyed it. And, that's really all that counts.

:p
