What do you think is an underrated platformer? I think Jak2 is, that game blows Super Mario sunshine out of the water, yet it didn't get the credit it deserved. Made by Naughty Dog (one of the best when it comes to platformers) This game was huge, I loved the missions, great replay value, setting ground for other games. Another game I really liked which wasn't a platformer was Crash Team Racing, wow. Soo underrated. It beats Mario Kart 64 anyday, but nobody really gave it the credit it needed.

Damn....Mario Kart 64 is my favorite racing game out there...

Banjo-Kazooie is definetley one. It was always treated as a Mario 64 wannabe, but in my opinion it was better than Mario 64 in basically every way!

Another one would be Vectorman, for Genesis. That game was just too cool for its time, but again, always overshadowed by similar games like Megaman and Metroid.

Yeah right MK64 was better but CTM was a little underrated.

Fully agree with you. I played both games and I found that CTR was better.

Mario Kart 64 was the best sellin game of all time at one point. It was far superoir to Crash in both Gameplay and graphics. Multiplayer too.

Diddy Kong Racing>>>> Crash Team Racing and Mario Kart 64
I liked Crash Team Racing's single player better than Mario Kart's, but I liked Mario Kart's multiplayer way better.

Was Crash Nitro Cart (or whatever it was) anygood?
