Great controls (which we will get into later), great music (which we will also get into later), and colorful levels with enjoyable backgrounds sets this game apart from all of the other 2D platformers of recent times (although it is nice to see them making a comeback)

When I first played New Super Mario Bros. Wii, I thought it had flawless, unbeatable controls

I don't know if controls can even be charming, but something about holding the jump button on your second jump and making your character flutter around for a couple

, Rayman Legends was a great time, with amazing controls, sweet graphics, and unmatched charm

The controls and play are intuitive enough for younger kids and there is replayability for all ages via the chance to attempt levels repeatedly using different characters with unique attributes

This game has it all...great graphics and colors, easy controls, 80+ awesome levels, mini games, X-box live compatible, and 4 player co-op

One of the best things about Origins was that it looked like you were controlling a cartoon, which resulted in terrific animations, slapstick comedy, bizarre spectacles, and OODLES of SMILES

Simply the best 2D platformer controls seen in recent years
