Spyro would be good, but I bet you already plan on doing that one. You could branch out a bit and check out the Bloody Roar series! It was a really fun fighter with a goofy animorph gimmick. I always wondered what happened to that series.
The fact that Ty was able to raise not one but TWO successful Kickstarters to rerelease the first two games on modern consoles shows that he could EASILY have an amazing comeback. He needs the KAO the Kangaroo treatment.
@@coochie8670 I have to respectfully disagree. I think the reboot succeeds in almost every department, without being anything extraordinary. It is a good game, even if is still far from being a masterpiece.
@@gonzalot.605 I'm glad you enjoyed the game, I really wanted to enjoy it myself but after playing the demo it just felt off. The voices of the characters felt like they didn't match, and the gameplay just didn't feel smooth to me. Just happy that KAO is getting more recognition though.
I'm not exaggerating that I say that Ty 1's levels made for one of the most atmospheric games that I've ever played, only rivaled by Breath of the Wild. Thank you for this fantastic retrospective on the first game series that I ever played!
I'm just gonna be honest, as an Australian this game and the series make me really really fucking proud. Seeing so many people outside of Australia knowing about and loving a game born and bred here is such a great feeling. Hell, I remember back when I went to Melbourne's ACMI as a kid and saw the stop-motion zoetrope with all the Ty characters, it blew me away, since it was so great seeing something I recognised as a gamer in reality - and I'm sure some international fans would have been the same way back then.
Well as a 11 year old from Texas back im the day I used to LOVE THE SHIT out of Ty 2. Had it on my gamecube as a kid and man I really loved it. Tbh I dont think I ever finished it or got far I would just explore the world around me it was definitely a highlight in my childhood
Wow. I saw that same stop motion display when I was a kid, tho I thought I saw it at the exhibition center. It was super exciting 'cause I had played Ty 1 for the first time just a few months prior.
i find it absolutely hilarious that thylacines are well known for being able to open their mouths a full 120 degrees, but ty, sly, and fam are constantly grimacing and talking through their cheeks
In fairness for Ty, in his biting animation he does open his mouth super wide for it. It's just that it's only for a split second so it's really hard to catch.
I think its even funnier in the original you can see with Sly there is like a slit for his mouth that isnt on Ty so it makes him look like hes got an underbite or a massive nose
Ty the Tasmanian Tiger was actually one of the first games I was gifted when I got my PS2. It's a game that has stuck with me for two decades, and I'm so glad that it's getting more recognition now!
Same here its well loved and It was my first owned game. I played it so much that right now I can pull the soundtrack into clear memory long after not being able to play it
What I love about this series is that it may not be groundbreaking or anything new, but it doesn't try to- it's just a charming platformer series that you can tell the developers pour their heart and soul into.
I'm one of the folks who was lucky enough to have the original TY be a part of my childhood, right alongside those like Jak, Ratchet, and Sly. Thanks a ton for giving this series a chance and waving it about in front of folks who might've never heard of it. I'll admit it's been a long, long while since TY was on my mind, but I've got more than plenty of fond memories with him and I'm glad to hear that Krome is still alive and apparently still so passionate about all this.
Ty deserves one more good chance and one more good game with people While I mostly had the 2nd & 3rd games that i happily dumped HOURS into as a kid, I've seen plenty of those whom have such a love for this series and it genuinely is a fun time to have
FUN FACT: the 'dreaming' place ty's parents go to is actually a terminology used in aboriginal culture(native australians), it is a place of ancestral beings and involves connection with spiritual power.
I am HUGELY passionate about speedrunning Ty 2, but speedrunning the series as a whole has been getting a surge of popularity (relative to what it was like before, it's no Mario 64 or anything) so it's been awesome that the casual gaming world is also starting to appreciate it more. It's been so underrated for so long and always been top tier for me :) Also worth mentioning we have an entire category "Steve%" where the goal is just to find Gooboo Steve all 10 times ASAP as we bow down to his infinite wisdom and power 😂
Steve% actually sounds pretty interesting, he's got some good hiding spots. I'm kind of surprised 100% is only 2:42:33 I would have thought all the collectables would take _much_ longer, but I guess that's why i'm not a speedrunner.
I have to be clear. I never comment on videos, but when I see this game get recognition it feels like seeing my childhood friend on TV. Ty the tasmanian tiger will always have a special place in my heart and I appreciate the coverage bro. 🤙🤙
Crazy timing, I recently started a job at an indie VFX company down here in Sydney and after working here for a month I learnt that some of the older guys I work with actually worked on this game, they worked at animal logic as animators for the prerendered cinematics, crazy meeting the people partly responsible for making games that began my journey as a game developer and inspired me from the beginning!
This is gonna sound a little silly, but I feel like you could show a little kid who LOVES Bluey (an Australian cartoon that has blown up in popularity worldwide in the last couple of years) this game and they'd love it - both Ty and Bluey are unapologetically Australian, and I feel like kids now would appreciate it more than some did 20 years ago.
@@Rexdrinkredbull I was just thinking that. I feel like half the reason I live Bluey so much is because Ty was my first video game ever and I never stopped being obsessed with it.
Oh god TY 1 was one of the games i loved as a kid. I never put it down on the ps2 and was one of the first games i actually %100. TY is such a goofball and i think adds to the charm of the game.
I think TY 5 following 1's formula would be the best option with current trends. Keeping the old boomerang system would be safest for combat, but I think they should go the ambitious step of giving every minor enemy diplomatic immunity to spice things up.
Personally, I think the combat should be a mix of Ty 1/2 and Ty 3. Give us separate buttons for melee and ranged attacks, with some kinda combo system that lets you chain them together seamlessly. Actually this just sounds like Devil May Cry with more platforming.
Oooh, the memories of playing Ty 2 - I was so amazed by the giant map, the different biomes and cruising along the beach (to the east I think), was some of my favourite memories - what a fun surprise to see this
Fun fact: Back in, I think 2013, Krome Studios tweeted that they wanted TY to be in PS All-Stars. If another was made, somehow, I wonder if they'd still be down for TY to join.
Thunder eggs are a real thing!! I only just learned this a couple weeks ago. They are stones that can grow a bunch of crystals inside. I had only ever heard of them while playing this game, so I was really excited to see that they are real gemstones
This series is honestly something special to me, 'cause alongside SpongeBob Revenge of the Flying Dutchman, Crash: Wrath of Cortex & Spyro 3. Ty 1 was one of, if not my very 1st games I ever played! So seeing these games become relevant again in recent years, it's truly amazing to see! And being given the chance to finally play Ty 4, is gonna be interesting for sure. While I still find some enjoyment with Ty 3, and oddly enough I recently found out a couple months ago that Krome actually put in a post credits scene teasing the next game at the time. I did wind up shifting views & came to the same opinion that Ty 2 was the best game in the trilogy, while still enjoying the others just as much! Also, there was apparently a TV show in the works when Ty 2 released. Since it was long believed to be cancelled, I asked Krome themselves about it on Twitter a few years ago, and this is what they said - "We stopped trying to find a distributor for it because there was no interest for it at the time and we moved on to other projects. Nothing to do with EA or Activision, It's just that TV networks were the only options back then." It's sad it didn't come to fruition, but it's an interesting piece of Ty history regardless. So here's hoping a Ty 5 can finally happen someday! Awesome video by the way! :)
Flying Dutchman was one of my first games as well! I remember the construction site being crazy frustrating! Shame about the Ty show, honestly. Didn't Tak and the Power of JuJu get a TV show adaptation around this time as well? Heck, they were throwing around ideas for a Kingdom Hearts TV show too! Almost makes you wonder where video game media would be had more of those actually panned out.
@@qrowing Tak actually got a show shortly after the 3rd game released. As for Kingdom Hearts, it has been reported that a show was happening in 2020. But no other updates as far as I know. I never played Kingdom Hearts, so I don't really keep up with it. Whenever I do hear about it, it's usually from VTNVIVI's channel. :)
As a kid one of my aunts gave me the trilogy for PS2 as a gift. Most of my memories are with the first game as I got stuck on one of the first missions in the 2nd and would basically just always get lost in the 3rd.
Not going to lie, Ty was my first real experience learning about Australia and Australian culture. As an American, I’ve been referring to the toilet as the dunny pretty much my whole life now. It introduced me to a whole new way of life, so similar yet so different. I have been studying Australian history for years and to this day, I keep up to date with current events, and I am very close to submitting a job application to a job in Brisbane. With Bluey on the air it occurred to me recently that my daughter very well may have a similar experience.
Im so glad Ty is making a comeback, this was the first game i ever played and it shaped my childhood. Ive been praying for a new game for over 10 years and thought there was no chance but seeing videos like this of bigger youtubers talking about my favorite childhood game gives me so much hope❤ thank you so much for making this!
I had Ty 1 for gamecube, and for the life of me, I dont know how I got it, but I remember spending hours in the island level just trying to go past the boundary an glide from island to island as well as the river down the tree. It was just a cool place to explore!
Bro, what is it with RU-vid showing me all these awesome channels I haven't heard of before that are posting EXACTLY what I want to see? I love Ty so much, can't wait to watch this when I have time! Edit: Holy crap, that intro got me so ridiculously hyped. It's such a good feeling to see my favorite series from when I was a kid getting all this love so many years later! These games really deserve it, and it makes the possibility of a fifth game feel more possible than it ever has.
Fun Fact: I heard about this guy on Bitchute back in 2018. Yeah, some creators actually went towards bitchute for content when youtube wasn't helping the new creators get a jumpstart into their platform...Man how the days have changed since 5 years prior.
@@SuperFlashDriver That's so wild, I'm really glad that RU-vid has at least seemingly gotten better for some of these underrated content creators who really deserve a hell of a lot more attention. Weird to think of a time when RU-vid wasn't necessarily the best place for that kind of thing!
i remember as a kid playing this on the PS2, the thing that stood out for me was just how impressive and clean the water rendering looks with the flora. to me it was so vibrant
I remember playing this as a little kid, but ended up losing it somewhere along the way, and thought this was just a game I made up in my head because I never saw anyone else talk about it
I was the only one of my friends who ever played this as a kid. I remember the first one very fondly. I'm gonna go back and play the remasters now and recommend them to my friends. I can't wait to see where this serious goes. My little nostalgic heart can't take it.
I remember driving home from the gamestore with my dad and seeing my best friend on the street as we near our house, I remember putting this up against the window and him coming along to play it together. Good times.
I had the first game and adored it as a kid. We ended up getting the second, I think, too. Played less of that one just on account of me probably being more interested in other, much bigger, titles at the time. I honestly had no clue there was a resurgence in interest in the game/series, or that it ended up being a cult classic, so this video was the first I'd heard of that. Sure, I'm four months late, but hey.
This channel is criminally underrated I havent even watched this video and already know its going to be a banger. This guy only puts out quality Edit: Just finished watching it. Did not disappoint. Tons of great facts and history of the game, the game studio, and the industry at the time.
I got Ty 2 as a lend me down from one of my cousins and will always be a personal favorite game of mine as I spent hours exploring and collecting everything the game had to offer. Anyone I ever see cover Ty will always bring warm feeling to my heart as I also see them becoming fans of this game as well.
WOW, WHAT TIMING!!! I actually JUST bought the games on Steam a little while ago, and I've been having fun playing it. I'm halfway through the game already reliving through my childhood, and seeing this pop up in my recommended feed is something else! I'm going to have fun watching this. :)
I really loved this series growing up, and I don’t think I realized how special it was that I was even able to play it as a kid. But it’s really something that people don’t talk about- but I remember enjoying the story, gameplay, and visuals a lot
i'm not entirely sure about the collectables cause I've never played it. But they look a lot like geodes rather than grapefruits. I think the implication is that they're like gems of Ty's world.
Great video but One correction. The Legend of Spyro was published by Sierra. They wouldn't be merged into Activision until their parent company Vivendi acquires Activision in 2008. Now this doesn't change the core of the part of the video where this is brought up, as Krome would still have their hands full with trying to make Ty 3 the same time as a high-profile game that was definitely draining more workmen hours than their own IP, but thought of mention it for before someone "Well actually" and dismisses the whole video because of a minor factual error in a theory.
Yeah wait, I knew that like a hundred times over - why did my brain just let that part slip by? Good shout! Like you said, it doesn't matter beyond being a dumb little supposition, but even if I was being generous, the Activision-Vivendi buyout wasn't in the works until I wanna say mid-2006 at the earliest so there's no world where that works out!
@@ericvandenavond8748 Yes. As well as King's Quest. They were bought by Vivendi-Universal Interactive Studios(the owners of Crash and Spyro) in the mid 2000s. And since Sierra was a bigger name publisher, Vivendi rebranded the parent company as Sierra(ala Infograms with Atari)
Talk about an underrated series with a dedicated dev behind it. So much charm and enjoyment they always made me smile. That said, I know I'm gonna freak the hell out when Ty V gets announced.
Ty two and three are the games that hold the majority of my childhood gaming memories. Sitting half a foot away from our old crt, feeling the cancer causing screen snap and crackle as I curiously run my hand across the screen for the 100th time. The feeling of my legs losing circulation from sitting crisscross applesauce for 4 hours straight. Ugh what I wouldn’t do to go back it time even for a day…
I grew up with the original and never knew that there was more. You never stop in bringing illuminating and quality content. Definitely a RU-vid hidden gem that deserves much more attention.
As someone who played the original game on his old PS2 as a kid back around the time it came out (and got the remaster of it on Steam six years ago), I thank you for doing your part in exposing this series to more people. I never really _beat_ the game my first go-around, though-- just found cheats online, got to the later parts of the game early, and didn't have a fair playthrough until I got the remaster. It was certainly a good way of exposing me to Australian culture, however. As for the other games, I just never got around to picking them up the first time around, but I intend to do so with their remasters at some point, even more so after this video reminded me that I still have to. I realize you didn't have the most glowing appreciation for TY 3, but I'll get it anyway, if only to further support Krome's future efforts. They still seem to believe this ol' thylacine has life in him yet, and with their Kickstarter successes and the ongoing platformer resurgence, I kinda can't blame 'em. I may not be a fan of this series the way I am with Sonic or Ratchet & Clank, but it still had a hand in my formative years, and I did wind up playing some of Krome's other projects (their Legend of Spyro games and Blade Kitten, namely), so I'm certainly rooting for their future success.
This game is such an absolute gem and I'm so happy to see people still talking about it and covering it. I played it as a preteen, I played it again in my late 20s and it's just as good as I remembered.
Something to point out: the rail grinding minigame in Ty2 was originally from a "running away from something" perspective, such as some of the Sonic or Crash stages. We're actually supposed to be seeing the giant beetle behind us, I don't know why Krome didn't fix the camera perspective for the HD version
I still have the second game in the series. It's a good one. Something of fun note btw; Ty is voiced by the guy who does the "That's gotta be the best pirate I've ever seen" from Pirates of The Caribbean.
I was telling my husband about this game,because I just realized after watching this the first time that the game shared the nickname his parents gave him.... and not once did it click in ten years. I remember reading about how the game was made in Australia in a gaming magazine. Had to be Nintendo power, though I remember picking up a nother magazine here or there so can't really remember... I actually remember loving the game. The Sonic style of the main character caught my attention, and I loved how the slang didn't feel... stereotypical? My only real exposure to Australia outside of the game had been crocodile dundee, and people quoting it, paroding it....yeah.... Get the same vibes from a kids show called Bluey as I got from this game. Even if my only exposure to the Ty series was the first game, charming is definitely the word I'd use. Had no clue it had so many sequels! There's a whole lot I missed when I entered the workforce in the height of the recession. The fact I know I filled a sketchbook full of characters from the game at the time shows it stuck with me for a while at least. I lost most of my drawing books in moves and this was sadly one, but considering the only other series to get that level of love were Mario, sonic and Zelda..... that really says something, too.
I actually played the first Ty the Tasmanian Tiger game when it came out and I remember it being a really decent platforming game with some actually good content like the racing minigames. I had no idea it went on to have more games down the road. This is definitely one of the rarest gems people overlooked with Kao the Kangaroo and Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg being extremely rare.
Makes me happy to see the series getting so much love. I grew up shouting SUUUUUUIEEEEEEEEEEE and none of my classmates got it. but more than that, it left an impression and that part about "we want american kids saying Aussie slang" couldn't be closer to exactly what happened.
Super fond memories of this game. I didn't know people hadn't heard of it. This and The Dog Island were probably the two biggest games of my childhood, neither of which got very popular at all.
I absolutely adored Ty when I was a kid. It was the first GameCube game I actually beat, since as a child I'd gotten stuck on a lot of other games. I remember blasting through Bush Rescue and Night of the Quinkan and loving them both to bits. Glad to see someone talking about these games. They were for me what Banjo-Kazooie was for so many others.
I do love how ridiculously Australian tye is. As someone who lives in Australia, I love how it feels like I’m playing a game in the places I grew up in. It’s not a masterpiece, but the character of it all is what makes the series special
This is fascinating! I may have heard of Ty.. sorry, TY.. before but had no idea about its history. But I'm also someone who still wants to but hasn't played some classics like Sly Cooper and Ratchet & Clank. Great work buddy!
I loved ty so much as a kid! To me it was always right up there with Ratchet and Sly, but looking back, i think i was the only kid who actually had it. Guess i was lucky my dad had a talent for picking out games
This made me very happy. I always adored this franchise. Never played 3 in full or 4 whatsoever, and I think that if Krome can get a fifth game that they can do whatever they want, and I think I will immediately buy them on digital storefronts because this franchise is so cute and wonderful.
i have such good memories of the first ty game!!! we grew up with the gamecube version and i loved the music and characters. i didn't even know there are sequels til i found the remastered on steam a couple years ago! 3 was still in early access but i immediately bought 1 and 2. it's so fun being able to return to that childhood and have more to enjoy as well. we had so much fun with ty i found it weird learning the game's not more popular
I am so proud to admit that I am an OG Ty fan. I remember seeing it on shelves when I was young and I absolutely loved the game. So happy to see it getting some love.
Glad this game series is getting what it deserves by a golden bolt video. Ty 2 was a huge part of my childhood and I go back to the re-release on steam semi often for my nostalgic needs. Krome was underrated.
As a kid I loved the 00s era of platformers and had several of them, but TY 2 was always my favorite. It might be twenty years late but I'm glad to see the series finally earn some wider traction.
I remember renting this game a bunch before ever owning it and it's pretty nostalgic for me. Random fact, this was the first game to make me start using the analog stick; up until that point I was still just using the D-Pad in every game, but specifically remember being surprised when Ty wouldn't move and I had to use the stick instead :P
Mannnn my childhood… These games stuck in my mind more than I think any others have… outside of another game I don’t think I’ll ever see again.. Psi-Ops The Mindgate Conspiracy… I can’t explain how many years I wished to see these games again and was over the moon to see them brought back.
If I were to revive TY it'd be first game mechanics and style, but the hub and cast of 2. I really enjoyed the fact that TY has this ridiculously large cast of original characters who dont do anything. They're just all unique and weird and that makes me smile.
Ty had been a part of my life when I was just a kid and now being an adult and being able to replay this passion project has my hopes up that well get more.
Ty 1 was one of the very first games I with my PS2, and the whole series has a very special place in my heart. Ty, Ratchet & Clank, Sly Cooper, and Kingdom Hearts defined the PS2 era for me.
Ty and Kromes story reminds me of Oddworld and Oddworld Inhabitants story. Love the Ty series. Never finished the first game cuz of my Thalassophobia but I played the beginning of that game over and over as a kid. Im Australian but besides TY i've never played a game that explored Australian mythology and culture like this. Its a series I've kept a close eye on throughout the decades to make sure I'm up to date.
Something tells me you didn't like playing levels like Ship Rex or Rex Marks the Spot. I hated levels like that too especially when you got something big like sharks swimming around in there giving you a hard time. It was one of the reasons I HATED water levels in general, that and Jolly Roger's Bay from Super Mario 64. That Eel, man (shudders)
@@BlazeHeartPanther Yup, those levels exactly. Its gotten better now that I know what the cause was, but as a child I just got this overwhelming sense of dread and I didnt know why. Underwater sections in ratchet and clank, spyro (the robotic sharks in 2 and the big whale in 3). It wasn't until Monster Hunter Tri that I had a game where I could comfortably play underwater, and that game took me 100 hours before I even attempted it and even then it had to be in co-op.
Ty 1 was the first game I ever owned for the Playstation 2 and now I desperately want to get it and Bush Rescue for the Switch! These games are fantastic through and through even if they aren't the longest ever, and if you're from Australia and you're reading this, you should 100% be proud! 😁👍 Y'all made something that was a huge part of my childhood
I rented TY from a movie gallery back in the day and it was love at first sight. Such a fun game to play with memorable characters and funny dialogue. I later got all three original games for GameCube and still have them to this day. I bought HD remasters on switch and managed to be a backer for Bush Rescue. Just from the dev updates on the Kickstarter you can really see their passion for TY and the love for their fans.
This series does not get enough love. I'm Australian but I grew up most of my younger years overseas, and as a result this series kinda was the Australian stereotype exposure that kept me attached to my homeland in a way. But beyond that they're just solid as games that in my personal opinion outclass the competition of the era.
Still haven't beaten Ty 2 yet but I'm hyped for the Ty 4 port also lets face it Ty isn't getting the remaster treatment unless Krome REALLY did some serious work on it and please please PLEASE do a retrospective on Viva Pinata next!
I've been putting off watching this for a while (No real reason, just had it on my watch list and never got around to it). I'm glad I finally watched it though since I did learn a fair bit about the series, despite loving the series (Well, the first two games anyways lmao), and still having the PS2 versions of them, I'm glad that TY is getting some love again, a classic game that's hella underrated and could be so much more. If we do get a true next TY game, it could be so much more considering how far technology has come in the last 15 or so years. Here's hoping they are working on something new for him and here's to further hoping it'll be amazing. Thanks for the video Golden, ya helped me learn more about a series from my childhood. Keep up the good work.
Ty was my first game EVER! I was so little I didn’t even listen to the characters say I had to get enough thundereggs to go to the next zone. I thought it was like when I watched my brothers play megaman/mario and just reach the end of the level so I never saw beyond the 1st three worlds. Coming back to the HD remasters has been so satisfying that I finally 100%ed them!
7:36 - I gotta be 100% honest right now... when you said "this boomerang mechanic MAY be..." as it was fading to goddamn _Darth Vader_ gave me severe flashbacks to the Croc video. I spent that entire section waiting for the joke, and was pleasantly surprised (and a little shocked) when it was just... no no that's a real story, they really did work on that game and it DOES have a boomerang blade mechanic
I'm not really into platformers, but I admire and respect the tenacity and passion of the devs to keep their project alive. Even better, to see it become more and more successful as the years roll on. Happy for the devs! They definitely earned it!
Thank you for covering a very old game series in my childhood, it says a lot when even at 6 to 7 years old I still vividly remember Ty and Sly despite how simple they are and the gameplay loop just being incredibly fun, boomerang combat was such a novelty and even to this day I still remember the messy sfx mix it had. I spent an actually unholy amount of hours as a child just bearing with my terrible sense of direction (that I didn't know I had at the time) for all 3 games and I still somehow made it to the finish line, and now that I know there's Steam remasters I may get them one day once they're on sale, I want there to be a Ty 5 and see this franchise become something bigger, which is what it honestly deserves.
What a blast from the past. I nearly forgot about this series, but this video unearthed memories of playing Ty 2 on Xbox when I was in elementary. Never beat it, because I just wasn't very good at paying attention to dialogue and the like, but the charm definitely left an impression. I'll wishlist the remakes. Probably worth checking out.
every year i'll pull out my old xbox original and play the TY the Tasmanian Tiger series. My fav being 1 but the 2nd being great to explore once again. It's a great game, the controls were good, great music i still remember to this day, the characters were cool, and it is by far one of the most unique games i've ever played. I hope i can play them again in a remastered version and if it exists i've heard nothing about it. Truly a gem of the older video game eraa.
It is worth pointing out that Ty3 never released outside of North America so here I was in the UK, a massive fan of Ty 1 and 2 and I still to this day have hardly been able to play 3. I played it a little as a kid when I used my friends pirated copy but I thought the game was like some unfinished prototype or something (I was a kid, I wasn't smart) as it was hard, glitchy and kinda weird. I awaited the eventualy official release but there was nothing. I aodre the orignal two so much, Ty 1 was the first game I decided I wanted that wasn't appart of a known franchise as I just thought the boxart of him with fire boomerangs looked cool. When I head it was coming to Switch I bought it immediatly. I had 100% the first two games on gamecube but I wanted to support them. I have waited for Ty 3 to arrive on Switch because I felt it was a matter of time but I honestly didn't know its history and it sounds like I am not missing much. I will still get it if it arrives to try it for myself but I am not too hard broken if I never play it. But Ty was important for me as a kid in the early 2000's. I had a gamecube and besides my neighbour, everybody else I knew at school has a PS2, playing games like Spyro, Ratchet and Clank, Sly while I has Mario and Zelda. I think I won out to be honest and don't feel envy for them but I could never talk about games with the friends at school until Ty the Tasmanian Tiger and Sonic Heroes came out. I got my friends at the time into Ty and later down the road Pokemon and then the series dropped off in the UK with only two games.
Ty 3 is okay at best. It’s just a weaker version of Ty 2 in my opinion. It’s not a “unplayable” mess, it just feels like a lazier and shorter version of Ty 2.
@@njnjnjom2278 From my limited experience from when it first came out that tracks. I have played it to aome extent but I remember if being kinda bad. But again, I haven't played it since 2005
I played Ty the Tasmanian tiger 1 on Nintendo Switch and it was a great game to play and I enjoyed it. I am glad this game is getting its recognition because I believe this game is underrated and also a hidden gem.
This channel keeps covering all the games I played as a kid and letting me know that somehow my parents bought me the less recognized, less successful titles that were actually kinda golden. Except R&C, that was recognized and my all time favorite.
THANK YOU for bringing more eyes to this series, especially with the remasters coming out somewhat recently. This was one of the first games I ever got for ps2 as a kid, and a favorite. I've always thought it was a shame how little attention it ended up getting. I didn't even know there was a potential Ty 5, or even a *resurgence* happening! I thought the remakes through kickstarter were going to be it, so I haven't kept my eyes on the franchise
I never grew up on this game, but I recently found out about it after realizing there was a game based around my favorite animal. Bought the first game on my switch, beat it, and loved it enough to buy and complete the second game. Thanks Ty for getting me through my freshman year of high school and giving me a peek into Australian culture. Edit: I actually ended up 100%ing both games in both normal and hardcore difficulties because I liked them so much.
