Best Side-scrolling Platformers
Please add more games to this list. There are tons and tons of side-scrollers.This will be the greatest ever. This is like Tom n Jerry cartoon; no matter how old, always the best
This started side-scrolling platformers pretty much.
One of the best games, no wonder it's number 1 spot.
What a classic. Would play it a lot.
This should be on top. My favorite side scroller is the first Sonic game, but this is technically the "best". At least way better platforming than New super Mario Bros and Little Big Planet.
This was absolutely beautiful!
Xander VERSUS The World: The True Story is a phenomenally underrated series of levels created by me on LBP2. Go play them to remind yourself of the days when this game actually had some interesting, quality platforming and originality left in it.
This is a great game inspiring creativity and exploration. Too bad the 3rd one sorta ruined it.
Should be number one. My first videogame. And one of my favorites
Just to list some of the things that are absolutely amazing about it:
The graphics, the boss/enemy/area designs, the secrets, the music, the sound design, the atmosphere, the story (for its time), the hacks, the speed-running community, the absolutely INCREDIBLE amount of freedom offered by the controls, the nostalgic references to previous Metroids, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera
Hard as heck man with very interesting, varying levels
Creepy and atmospheric game. Reminds me of my uncle's basement.
How is this not in the top 10?
