Those of us with memories not too faded by the purgatory that has enveloped us all since the halcyon days of the 80's and 90's may recall a game vaguely reminiscent of
Mario Brothers that appeared on the
ST in 1988, called
Great Giana Sisters. Despite
slanderous and untrue allegations by Nintendo, the franchise has continued healthily to today.

Introducing the latest
2.5D iteration in the franchise, Great Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams
Thanks to your post I bought the game for the PS3. It's nice, and I will enjoy me for a while.
ReplyDeleteWhen TGGS came out it was so cool to have the game for the ST, cause it was a big hit for the C64. First of course it was a big frustration, that it does not scroll, cause you could not talk about the game in public when C64 and Amigians were around, but later I loved this feature cause it make the game unique and it's damned playable. That the ST is captable of a Mario Brother like scroller, other games showed later.
