Im ashamed to admit that Donkey Kong Country Returns was my first Donkey Kong game, because its so good, I wish I had played the others. Donkey Kong returns was so nastolgic and I remember I borrowed it from my friend and played through almost everything. The soundtrack, the enemies, the gameplay, the bosses, everything was basically perfect. It felt so much different than a Mario game in a way I couldn't explain. I loved the tropical vibe and it felt faster pace. I love Monke.
