only the first Jak and Daxter is good.
And even then it sucks compared to any of the Crash or Spyro games on the PS1
>>11440723nah ps1 platformers are pretty crap
>>11440717Jak 1 AND Jak 2 are good.Jak 3 is the shit one.
>>11440724Were they really? I haven't noticed. I thought late 90s were the only time when 3D platformers were actually good
>>11440724t. Vexx fan
>>11440725Jak 1, Jak 2 AND Jak 3 are good. Lost Frontier is the shit one.
>>11440774I feel really mixed about that promo poster. It's great but the game kinda doesn't have that atmosphere
>>11440725They are all good, but all have different issues.
>>11440761clunky controls, bad camera and really shitty graphics. Aged horrible
>>11440717Dexter is the best game.
>>11440717
Nah. It might be better than the sequels, but it's still not good.
Jak 2 is not bad. It's just fucking weird and I can't tell if I like it or not.
>>11440897It's really gay how they ported this shit to PS2 and not Daxter, Daxter is so much better.
>>11440786Looks like it’s supposed to be in forbidden jungle
>>11440717This is how everybody who never played the trilogy when they first released feels about the series, including the guy who's going to post otherwise to try and start an argument.
>>11440725Jak 1 is shit, Jak 2 is peak, Jak 3 is decent
>>114407171 and 2 are good haven't played 3 , x, or lf yet
>>11440717jak 1's character animations, art direction, and most importantly the environment art are top notch and extremely comfy.The platforming and "combat" are so bare bones and dull though. There is no momentum or any of the cool physics from Spyro or Mario, it just feels so basic... thank goodness they animated the facial expressions for every cutscene though! As is typical of Naughty Dog, it's all style over substance.
>>11441603> There is no momentum or any of the cool physicsMaybe the way Jak feels to control is intentional but it's just not how I like my platformers
>>11440717aren't Jak 2 and 3 just GTA clone games? not saying there is something wrong with that but not really my cup of tea. I still need to play this, slept on it since it came out.
>>11441285True. I could maybe see not vibing with the tonal shift if you were just really into that: "running through treehouses in a tropical forest" thing that was super popular in the late 90's and it's sorely missed (Diddy Kong, Jak, Tak, Ty the Tasmanian Tiger, etc) but for the most part everyone was hyped as fuck for Jak 2 and Dark Jak was the shit.
Do any of you ever get tired of having the same repetitive conversations regarding everything on 4chan? It's always the same handful of topics in Jak threads.>Jak 1 was better and more SOULFUL!>Jak 2 was BADASS!>Jak 3 was mediocre.>Why'd Naughty Dog make such a drastic shift with 2?>I wish we could go back to having sexy babes in vidya again, bros...>These games had so much SOVL! >They sure don't make'em like they used to! People on here are more concerned with gossiping and arguing about the hobby, hardware and tech than interacting with it, on top of using /vr/ as a springboard to blog about nostalgia with their oversharing Reddit-tier theatrics. It's a lit like what an anon said a few days ago:>I feel like people come to this board to not talk about retro games but about the world surrounding them. In a way they think this is a "my life's personal childhood moments" board instead of a video games one.
>>11442345first time on reddit I presume?
>>11442345Obviously a board like this is going to be ~70% nostalgia circlejerk/regurgitating opinions on popular retro games, it's inevitable
>>11442345What kind of conversations are you expecting exactly?
>>11443039Deep discussion's about jaks gameplay
That anon was clearly talking about mods for the PC port, not you. Don't be so quick to judge.
>>11443039I don't expect anything worthwhile to come from this site anymore, janny.You would rather huddle in your ERP ivory towers telling US to "ignore/filter" shitposters/spammers/problems and to "get a life" if we care to give a shit about the sanctity of this site anymore.You're actively killing 4chan because of your cynicism and have refused to permaban the most heinous and pervasive shitposters/spammers, unless it offends YOU personally, ruining boards/threads with their retarded shit. There's absolutely no reason to come here since everything's so played out and mundane that you'd have to be willful ignorant or a newfag tourist not to see it, on top of your 15min post timer cope, killing any motivation to post anything, even the most simplest, benign things.Fuckin' place has run its course and is only for autists and the mentally-ill flamewarriors with an ax to grind and/or people hopelessly bored and addicted to the hyperbolic insincerity the place has wrought.>Be the change you want to see in the worldFuck you, you insincere, power-tripping bastard. You'll always be miserable.
