I just thought it would be interesting to make a thread about Tomba since it is one of the greatest games in history. I wanna start a discussion about it.

Oh, and is asking questions about ISO's if you own the actual game against the rules?

While Tomba is a great game (vastly underrated) talking about ISO's and emulators is not allowed ;)

Fantastic game, too bad it's one of only two games that WhooPeeCamp developed. The only other being the sequel.

I never could find the 2nd game in any stores, but I heard that it was pretty good. I liked the unique adventure, side scroller, platformer, rpg

hybrid that game was. I would still play it today if my ps1 hadn't died (after almost 15 years).

Tomba is amazing, neck-and-neck with Klonoa for my favorite original PlayStation game. As for the sequel, I didn't like it as much. I think the move to 3D visuals actually hurt the game.

My original Playstation recently died on me as well, had it since 96. Luckly i have the PSone remodel that still works just find. I've been having trouble finding the second one also. Tomba was definaitly a fresh take on a pretty generic genre at times. I would love to see something similar come out today.

I actually didn't like Klonoa the first time I played through it (I bought it because the back of the case reminded me of Sonic for some reason).

But everyone says that it was really good I still have it. I should try it again, since it works on the ps2, unlike Tomba.

I actually just picked Kolona back up again when I saw the news of it comming west again. That's such a great game that had a decent sense of depth in the game. I remember grabbing a character that is going from foreground to background for the first time thinking that it was one of the most interesting ways to grab something. I mean there were 3D games before, but still it was awesome and did a great job of implementing 3D into a platformer.
