tiredofsametab, in Why aren't modern 3D platformers as good as the PS2 era of 3D platformers?

Can you give us better lists of games that fall into both your good and bad categories?

My hot-take answer was going to be that it's all nostalgia and there haven't really been any good ones (at least that I ever was aware of). Given your edit on nostalgia, maybe it's not nostalgia for an individual game or games, but rather a a time and a style?

For some reason my wife’s family calls them “hobo eggs”

Ratchet and Clank had at least three good games on the PS3, and Rift Apart definitely counts as a modern game. I wish Insomniac (and other game devs) woul devote more resources to making hybrid shooter/platformers, but the devs who made those great PS2 games are being replaced by newer devs who want to make different things. Also publishers want to cash in on big money-making trends like live service games.

Dr. Oetker. The doctor was literally a Nazi and the family hide it.

I thought Tinykin from last year was really good. A bit short, and certainly not the hardest game on earth, but still fun.

You’re remembering the cream of that era and comparing it to all of the current area. It’s natural, but misleading.

I loved the 3D platformers from back then, including the ones based on whatever movie was out at the time

Nemo, in Edit: (What do you call this dish?)

Mom called them egg-inna-basket.

Scoutmaster called them buckeyes.

Other scout dad called them toad-inna-hole.

Another scout called them one-eyed-jack.

I don’t make them, so I don’t call them anything.

PrinceWith999Enemies, in If many extraterrestrial civilizations were nearby but trying to keep quiet, how would you suggest drawing them out?

Invent a warp drive.

Cue the T’Plana Hath landing.

ElderWendigo, in Edit: (What do you call this dish?)

Flying saucer, especially when you balance the little cut out piece of bread on top of the egg.

StephniBefni, in Edit: (What do you call this dish?)

Eggy in a basket for sure!

Sho, in Edit: (What do you call this dish?)

Chicken in a basket

Writing.

I would probably call it a piece of bread with an egg on it.

Apart from the hole, that could be chicken on a raft, an old Royal Navy dish.
