Guinness World Records has awarded Okami with the title of "best critically acclaimed game staring an animal." This is a completely serious award.
The original PlayStation library has dozens of classics long since forgotten - TechStomper unearths five of these gems which have been lost to time for one reason or another.
Disruptor PS1, a pre Goldeneye console FPS from 1996 (with Command and Conquer type FMV cutscenes) and the first game by a pre Spyro Insomniac Studios directed by Mark Cerny. A good game for its time, and pre Bioshock use of telekinesis type powers. A game sadly almost completely lost to time
I have never even heard of it, so that must be a deep cut. Sounds really interesting and I might dig it out :-)
First one was so good but second one on another level!!!
Still hoping to see a next gen version..
@Cacabunga Yeah, I preferred II for the real-timier combat. I would love to see both remade or remastered.
We need to bring back the golden era of ps1 & ps2 .
We need to see quality games developed with alot of passion to make gamers satisfied .
We need to benefit from new AI technology to bring something new to games something like " nemesis systems " that used in shadow of morder and upgrade it to next level
The economics of games has changed a lot since the PS1 and PS2. As much as I would love a return to those days, it's not not at all likely.
OVERRIDER is a new sci-fi roguelite about hoverboarding and smashing robots, and there's a Kickstarter campaign to help get it funded.
Cinnabunny and Time is Honey are currently up to be crowdfunded on Kickstarter right now. They're both adorable.
Not to many games where you play as an animal, for the most part or entire time. Spiro, Sonic, Gex, Earthworm Jim, Ecco, and Altered Beasts come to mind.
These could also be contenders as well for this award.
Only 1 logical winner should come to mind
Goat Simulator.
But how about Mr. Mosquito on Ps2? that was quite a little gem.
You could make a million Guinness world records if you think hard enough. Game with an animal protagonist with the lowest rating. Game with a female protagonist with the highest rating. Game with the most green. I mean, come on. I do have to play Okami though, I have it remastered for PS4.
Why does the description say “staring an animal”
