    Best platformer ever! Beats the hell out of Mario Bros (though made at a later time, to be fair...)

    I plan on writing a full review of this in the future sometime, but I need to play through it again in order to give it the time it deserves. This is probably my favorite video game of all time. I love the soundtrack, I love the graphics, I love the characters and it's just a fun game overall. Leaps and bounds better than the first. I always felt guilty of liking a Donkey Kong game when Donkey himself was not a playable character, but let's be honest. I never liked playing as him in the first one. Again, always felt weird not enjoying playing as Donkey when he's the main protagonist of the series, but he's just so fat, slow and stupid (hence the name Donkey Kong). Anyways, a must play if you've never played it or if you enjoyed the first one.

      Editing … I hear you, Pape. This isn't the case here, as this game isn't just a long lost memory that I haven't played since my early years. I've played many games in my day, and I always return to this game amazed in all its glory. :)

    I kind of skipped this one at the time, thinking it was more of the same. In retrospect I think it's a more creative and challenging game in terms of level design, but I dislike how the presentation has a 'market engineered for '90s kids' vibe to it and how there's more focus on pointless collecting (DK coins). Backgrounds often have garish colours and seem geared towards making a strong first impression but lacking in detail and moderation. Character design is all over the place, some mounts in particular look pretty silly and out of place. As with the original, control is not as tight as in Mario nor Sonic and the camera does cause a few cheap hits here and there, but it's fast and allows for a decent flow when learned.

    While the original DKC had a big impact with fancy graphics, the sequel had superior level designs, bosses, and soundtrack. A sentimental favorite.
