    Ty’s return doesn’t bring anything new to the table, but it doesn’t have to. This is a warm reminder of just how much fun classic 3D platformers were and is the perfect game for anyone with fond memories of the genre.

    Simply put, TY the Tasmanian Tiger HD will make you feel like it's 2002 all over again. For fans of retro 3D platformers, this is a wonderful thing although modern gamers may find it to be a bit too old-school to thoroughly enjoy.

    Bonza!
    Ty the Tasmanian Tiger hd is an HD remaster of a 2002 3d platformer where you play as a Tasmanian tiger set in the Australian wilderness.
    With one goal, get the talisman and save the mamals from being wiped out, and to aid you in this quest is your trust boomerang.
    Ty the Tasmanian tiger is an 8 and a half hour long collectathon, youre put onto a map, and your goal is to run around, find tasks to complete and by doing these various tasks such as racing the clock, or just simply figuring out how to get to a spot amond other things youll be rewarded with a thunder eggs, items you need a certain ammont of to move onto that sections boss battle… and each of this games maps are fun and varied, they all feel different with hteir own personality, really stopping this gme from ever feeling like a bore or a chore, its actually quite satisfying going over every inch of a level, collecting all of its orbs, finding the 5 rodents, swimming through its waters, dodging its crocks like my good ol buddy steve Erwin, collecting cogs to unlock new boomerangs… ty the Tasmanian tiger is a blast from start to finish,
    That being said this is a 2002 3d platformer and feels like such, floating and stiff feeling platforming at times, awkward controls when swimming, awful camera controls.. everything that plagued most games from this time, and no way to go into and fix to bring them up to todays standards…
    another thing that wasn’t fixed was the cutscenes… this is again a remaster, not a remake.. so you have to deal with the awkward grainy transitions of yesteryear.
    Even with these problems, ty the Tasmanian tiger hd proves to be just as fun to playthrough as it used to be and game I highly recommend to collectathon fans.
    I give Ty the Tasmanian Tiger HD

    It doesn’t have quite the level of polish of something like the Crash Bandicoot N-Sane Trilogy, but it plays faster and better than it usedIt doesn’t have quite the level of polish of something like the Crash Bandicoot N-Sane Trilogy, but it plays faster and better than it used to, and either way is a solid, under-appreciated little platformer. This really took me back! If you haven’t played the original, I’d recommend this as the way to best experience it.… Full Review »

    Really good 3D platformer. I’ve only found 2 glitches which is a miracle for a PS2 port. It’s not Banjo on Switch or Odyssey 2 but it’s stillReally good 3D platformer. I’ve only found 2 glitches which is a miracle for a PS2 port. It’s not Banjo on Switch or Odyssey 2 but it’s still gonna satisfy your 3D platformer hunger.
