Banjo-Kazooie for Nintendo 64
The three dimensional platformer was pretty much pioneered by Mario 64, and since then, it’s become a pretty standard type of game. But, in my opinion, the game that took what Mario did, only better, was Banjo-Kazooie. Already known for their quality games, RARE created one of the greatest …

Chicken Shoot (Nintendo Wii) reminds me very much of Duck Hunt for the Nintendo Entertainment System. Duck Hunt came out way back in the mid 1980s and here it is, the late 2000s, and this game barely does anything to expand on the concept of “shoot the duck” or …
