It's always tough for me to differenciate and separate when it comes to my "all-time favorite" games; with regards to the personal bias of my fond memories vs an OBJECTIVELY outstanding game. But in the case of this iconic platformer from Rare, both equally apply. Yes, Donkey Kong Country holds some of my best gaming memories and nostalgia - having loads of fun and laughs with my sister, cousins, and good friends while zipping about on rickety mine carts, riding rolling barrels, and plowing through Kremling foes with Rambi the Rhino.
But at the same time, this is just an objectively awesome side-scroller - between its sleek, atmospheric visuals and music, novel pre-rendered models, tight-yet-deep level design, solid controls, and loads of memorable moments. The game doesn't overdo it with loads of collectibles with branching pathways - it simply immerses you in a variety of lavish biomes as you venture forth as Donkey and Diddy to get your stolen banana horde back, by way of hopping, rolling, and trekking through tons of colorful baddies.
