Blinx: The Time Sweeper (BC) |OT| Swept Under The Rug

[Dark1x]

I've always loved this game. Reminds me of Nights (perhaps for a good reason) with a different style of play. Really solid and beautiful platformer. Never understood the hate it received. I actually like Blinx more than Jak and Daxter!

Gonna post here now that I know it exists and let my LTTP die, but yeah this game is actually really good, I think it just came out at the wrong time, when people wanted everything to be super serious and grimdark

First 9 minutes

Still love the soundtrack.

The hate Blinx gets always confuses me. It isn't terrible.

Loved this game back in the day. I gotta go through it again and see how it holds up.

Fun fact: Apparently IGN Unlocked actually tried to go through the process of buying Blinx from MS. They didn't realize it was gonna be so much of a hassle and be so expensive I guess. lol

So happy to be playing this again and that it actually holds up (art direction ftw). So what do ppl think the odds are of blinx 2 coming as well?

I'd say it's pretty inevitable tbh, I don't see any good reason why not. They were both BC on 360.

A lousy character design, weird bonus videos, and a brilliant idea for the time made it a really strange taste for me as a person who loves video games.

A definitive 6/10 game if I ever played one.

I tapped out at World 7 (Everwinter)

Holy fucking shit this is bad, just frustrating all around.

And yeah, your reward for collecting those stupid cat medals is a 5 second "funny" video of the pig enemies stacked on top of each other.

I finished this back on the OG Xbox.
That last boss.....
I had given up. Then I came back a couple of weeks later for a final shot. On one of the attempts, I fell off the edge just as I'd put some damage on the final boss. His death animation commenced before I hit whatever flags my death, and I beat it. Holy shit the celebration. One of the toughest bosses I ever beat. No doubt.

Although Blinx wasn't great back then, it has not aged well either.
