Yes, it's called Jak 2.

Am i the only one got all the of the secret car keys?

jak 2
ratchet and clank: going commando
Sly 3

and 3. People who say Precursor legacy is the best are contrarian hipsters.

environmentally i think precursor is probably the best. actual platforming and gameplay, its sub par

Mario 64

So now that Uncharted is over are there still no plans for another Jak game?

...

Would you really want one at this point? Look at what happened to the Ratchet and Clank series and Sly Cooper and Crash Bandicoot. Tbh, I think it's for the best that there is never another game. Would gladly take a downloadable remaster of Jak X with online play though.

They'll probably wait until they're all out of ideas, and no one cares anymore.

banjo kazooie was the best

they will probably remaster first, at the most.

Jak 2 is god tier 3D platformer

Damn, haven't thought about Jak and Daxter in a long ass time. The running and jumping felt so damn smooth. A shame the other two went the edgy route.

>you can never go back to 2002 and spend all day attending 6th grade and all night playing Jak and Daxter, Ace Combat 04, and Gran Turismo 3.

just end me

>contrarian hipsters

I don't think you are using that correctly.... everyone I have ever talked to that played the games agrees that the first is best. Just checked metacritic and the scores agree with that (barely)

>all ages family platformer
Neither Sony nor Naughty Dog want this.

Geez, I forgot to check metacritic.

yeah, everything does feel really smooth in that game. extra credits has a long video series on how the animation accomplishes this fluidity (and how it is just generally great), if you are into that sort of thing

>Contrarian
>noun
>a person who opposes or rejects popular opinion, especially in stock exchange dealing.

metacritic is a preeeetty good indicator of the 'popular opinion'

Sounds cool. I'll check it out. Thanks for the heads up, dude.

>Jak and Daxter, Ace Combat 04, and Gran Turismo 3
holy shit, are you me?

Mario Galaxy. Also have there been any recent platformers out or on the pipeline besides Skylanders or Yooka Laylee?

Yeah, for career gaming """""critics'""""".

>Sly 3
Why the fuck wouldn't you say Sly 2?

user scores

>Extra credits
>the fucktards who have virtually no experience making games
Why are you giving those dipshits clicks?

Because Sly 3 doesn't suffer from literally any of the issues that two does. Tow is by no means bad, but it has problems.

Can anyone play this shit on an emulator yet without it looking like death?

because the video I am reffering to is actually very insightful, whether you like the channel or not.

>whoa, someone else played these popular games

Well, you're right, because Sly 3 lets you replay missions and that's literally the only flaw in Sly 2, but the thing is 3 has several issues that 2 didn't.

yes, use the devbuild

Got all 100 power cells 2 weeks ago.

THAT'S THE FUCKING SECRET ENDING? REALLY? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?

>the only flaw in Sly 2
>guards randomly spot you even when youre behind and not touching them
>pressing circle in any level after Rashan can send you flying halfway across the map to some random interactable that you couldnt even see instead of the thing you wanted to jump on
sly 2 had real technical issues. 3's only flaw is that its kind of short

The 15th anniversary of this game is in a few days. Make sure thrers a thrwad up that dau guys.

I felt it too user. I had no idea there was a secret ending until earlier this year when I 100%'d it in the HD Collection

Like holy shit. It would've given me NOTHING to speculate on between it and Jak II if I'd seen it way back then. Playing the game to completion was a reward in itself though. Just end me because, not to be that guy, but they just don't make games like this anymore.

Doesn't look bad at all. It's a shame though about the black eye crap. What is it with the eyes that can't be rendered properly?

>Jak and Daxter
>3.34 million sales
>AC04
>3.17 million sales
>GT3
>14.98 million sales
HOLY FUCK WHAT THE FUCK ARE THE CHANCES

JumpAndHitTheCircleButton makes platforming awful. You already have double jump. The characters already DON'T have jump momentum. They top it off with magnetism to ropes and spires and shit and it feels awful to move around. The Sly games are not good platformers. Compare them to jumping around in Mario 64. It's no good.

just buy the HD Remaster it's like 15 bucks for three games.

>the same day as PSX

hmm really gets the brain going

>looking through Jak and Daxter lewds on deviantart
>it's all gay shit

Then again this was like 8 or 9 years ago so maybe times have changed.

Wooow, I hit the button and the horn honks.

just think of the porn possibilities...

Jak 2+3 sure ruined the original models didn't they

Reminder that pic related killed the franchise for good and Naughty Dog was always about catering to the current market and whatever's "in" right now. Since day one they've always been trend followers not setters, and now that fun and colorful platformers are "lol kiddy shit :P" you should abandon hope of them ever making one again.

This. Say what you will about that game as a whole, but no one can deny the platforming was objectively better than Jak 1.

You think that's bad, try experiencing it the year it came out and not knowing if there was even gonna be a sequel to explain that shit

I literally never knew this game existed.

>Playstation Experience starts 3rd December
>Jak and Daxter 15th anniversary on 3rd December

IMAGINE

>show about to end
>screen goes black
>'Make way for ORAAANGE LIGHTNIIING'
>Daxter slides across the screen
>some classic Dax bants about being in HD and having amazing fur textures or some shit
>new game is announced

Also, posting the trailer that got me into it all the way back then; youtube.com/watch?v=35xZDaGI8cY

It will probably just be a remaster, same as what they did with Crash at this year's E3.

They already remastered J&D

Naughtydog tried to do some concept art for Jak4, but they realised they couldn't make cool and fun stuff anymore, but just shitty, realistic action movies, so they scrapped the idea

At least they had the balls to go 'Yeah we can't do this shit, fuck it'

...

Psychonauts

It's sad when a company responsible for your childhood memories comes out and says that they forgot how to make fun things.

The problem with "realism" in videogames is that devs always change the proportions and character design in general, to make the game look realistic. Which results in an unrecognizable character that usually looks bad, too.
Instead, they should use modern graphics technology to make the games look more realistic, without sacrificing art direction and stylization, which were great in older games

More like they just don't want to make fun things anymore.

Videogames started as:
>original
>challenging
Then they became:
>fun
>cool
Now they are:
>cinematic
>realistic
How will they be in 10-20 years?

I feel they're breaking off into different directions. AAA will stay the "cinematic" course because that pulls in money where as indie will produce a mix of the other four but never to the right degree that the midrange used to.

Made bad ironically and insulting

>I'll never get to be grown up Jak
>The game could have been a masterpiece

Kill me

Gex is bexst

>Jak is now an adult and the girls are, too, so they do all kinds of lewd stuff
>He has settled down, formed a family, and leads his own city
>New threats appear, and the adventure seems promising
>But it's 2016, and Jak is a straight, white male, so he can't be the hero
>Instead, his wife's daughter, who is black and identifies as a pansexual metalhead takes the role of protagonist
>But guns, vehicles, combat, and exploration is soooo lame nowadays. And gameplay is so videogamey
>So the game ends up being a rpg where the girl proves to be a better leader than his white old father, and takes over the city to change its old traditions, and promote diversity (the oposite of Baron Praxis, trying to keep the metalheads out of the city. That was very racist)
>Oh, and even though it's a rpg, the game is pretty much on rails, and there's no story branching (don't want the player to choose a different path, and miss that cool explosion cinematic)

I'm glad Jak 4 will never be a thing

There are several

10 years they will be
>dead
>gone

>actually provide a half decent run at 2 in the morning
>laughs and memes the entire way through
>get banned from running by soccer moms

Why?

>Jak
>White

You know how God of War is now a cinematic experience and Kratos now has a son for "muh feels"? Yeah that's what would likely happen if there is ever a Jak 4.

This was definitely the last straw for pushing me over the edge to totally boycott GDQ, fucking pricks

What is he then?

Wait, what happened?

Why has nobody put together a different one?

ESA. NASA. Nobody watches them because no twitch advertising.

Gone Home was truly ahead of its time

...

Any Mario platforming game.

Bonesaw got banned for his Jak & Daxter run, which was easily the best run at the event but there's no fun allowed there any more.

Tell me why he got banned.

>We don't divulge that information
And then if you ask if it was because of anything specific
>No, he was not banned for that; we don't ban people for that and never have
Repeat as necessary

Do yourself a favour and forget about its existence.

He said fuck like 3 times and made fun of Owen Wilson a bunch. Apparently they told him to stop making the jokes but he kept pushing it
Basically they banned him for being fun

>literally a video about animation
>not about video games even though it uses a video game as an example

Did your disc have scratches or something?

I've played a shitload of Sly 2 in my life and never had those problems.

I did have a LOT of circle-tracking issues in Sly 3, though.
A lot.

Him and Patty were dishing out the memes like it was their job

Best run of the entire marathon but GDQ staff hate fun

Yes, it stars this beauty.

Brown.

Jesus Christ what the fuck happened

The Sony of today is quite different from the Sony of our time.

Well, that s rank isn't going to get itself desu.

You can honk the horn outside of the car! amazing! wow

epic meme

Wasn't a 4th uncharted the result of running out of ideas?

An elf.

Confirmed for literal retardation

there are hundreds, the jak and daxter trilogy are bland at-best, fucking awful at-worst.

*Heartbeat

>elf
>still call themselves humans
