@Rooster It takes zero hands to count the number of YouTubers that know you can run, crouch, or glide without a fan in Furbitten Planet. Watching one of them slog like a brick is painful. IMO, the game ain't great, but it's good for what it was developed for, since it was a 32x game awkwardly shunted to PS1 and not given time to be reworked after Super Mario 64 preempted it. The amount of ways history could have been different for this one game is stunning.

Furbitten Planet is one of those game's I'd like to see get a "Project 06" type remake. Preferably with better controls and less soupy a draw distance.

@RoosterGamer420 If you ask me, Busby entirely was just wasted potential. They really should've made him more than just an obvious Sonic clone. You have a race of aliens obsessed with fabric materials, a crooked TV executive pig, and a snooty rich female Persian Cat (From the failed TV pilot) as his rogues gallery.
Out of the clones back then, Awesome Possum was way worse than Bubsy. He was so blatant of a ripoff it's shocking Sega didn't sue Tengen for plagiarism.

Personally, I absolutely adore the original PS1 Bubsy 3D. It's such a great and unique game, even though the controls may take a little time to get used to at first. It's crazy fun, with great level design and platforming, great cartoon graphics and a fantastic musical score. Too bad critics hated on it just because they sucked at the game and it wasn't like Mario 64.

Then there's this abomination. The creators of this game knew NOTHING about the PS1 original, only "haha checkered color world spiky mountains haha". They didn't even know B3D took place on an alien planet heavily inspired by the BGs in Looney Tunes animations like Marvin the Martian and Wile E. Coyote. And they probably didn't care anyway. James Turrel Retrospective is a horrid parody of a criminally underrated gem of a game with an underlying message of "haha whoever developed Bubsy should stop making games lmao rofl brrr", and it pisses me off. You know what other games the B3D devs developed? Syphon Filter, Days Gone and Uncharted Golden Abyss, etc. And Bubsy 3D is, in my eyes at least, one of their bests.

Ironically, this is the best Bubsy game made, and it isn't even official.
