If you were an avid player of the original Xbox back in the day, there’s a good chance you came across the notoriously difficult Xbox exclusive Blinx games.
First released in 2002, Blinx: The Time Sweeper received fairly decent reviews, as did its 2004 follow up.
Unfortunately all six people still waiting on a third installment will be disappointed to learn that Microsoft has since dropped the Blinx trademark, effectively killing off the franchise.
It’s a shame really, they were possibly some of the best action-platform games available on the original Xbox, something the current generation of console could benefit from.
Still, if you do have a hankering for some Blinx action, the second game is actually playable on the Xbox 360 through backwards compatibility.
Rare are currently working on a AAA Xbox One game, though whether the rumours that it’s another Banjo Kazooie remain to be seen.
Do you have fond memories of Blinx? Or did the difficulty piss you off a little too much? Share your memories/nightmares down below.
