I really respect the fact that Parappa the Rapper was a milestone for rhythm games on console and I kinda appreciate the uniqueness in visual presentation, but for me it was really quite obnoxious to play: a rather confusing timing of the inputs completely disconnects the sound track, Parappa's key sounds, and the visual cues, leading to an extremely messy and disjointed experience that is especially annoying in a genre that is supposed to be truly precision-oriented. Interesting from a historical point of view and certainly a unique object, but for me no longer sufficiently valuable anymore in this day and age.
