I sure hope you're not trying to say that any Jak game past the first one was good.
better level design, better bosses, better everything.
Whats the best way to play the Jax and Daxter series now? Is the HD PS2 Collection any good or does it emulate well?
>>336829182
Pic unrelated, but 3 was the GOAT.

>>336830237
Bet you loved DMC 2
OPs that are faggots
>>336829748
I'd say they were decent, but they really ruined the formula they had by adding guns.
>>336830362
The HD collection is OK, but there's no point playing more than the first game.
>>336830362
Don't listen to this faggot,>>336831023. Play and enjoy all of them
>>336832674
Is HD version or emulate?
>>336830449
I never take anyones opinion seriously when they say they prefer jak 2/3 over 1
>>336833104
From what I hear, they emulate fairly well, but the HD versions are just fine on PS3 and broken on Vita
>>336833258
Word thanks man.
Never appreciated Jak 2 or 3 as a teen but I want to try 'em again.
>>336830449
>STRIPPED IT OF ITS HUMOUR
>>336829182
>Pic unrelated
>>336834057
Jak 2 had far less humour, proportionately, than J&D - and it was by and large more cynical and snarky in tone.
>>336830449
>>336834682
No it didn't. I played it a long time ago, but even in the most desperate situations Darxter was still cracking jokes. Or that time the explosion happened in the Fort and Jak hjit his balls on that shop stall. Or when the tower collapsed and Daxter hit his balls on the wire. Or that time Daxter hit on Ashline. Jak 2 is pretty much a laugh a mission.
>>336831023
>>336834682
The only real difference is that Daxter won't go in your face every time you die.
>>336835347
this
>>336834682
Nah, Jak 1 and 2 are equally comedic.
That said, I found neither of them funny. And the immense cynicism in the second game made the world far less enjoyable.
>>336829270
No.
Just, fucking no. If i have to dig the sidequest to actually get enjoyment and satisfaction (or hell, anything but angst/characters being dicks to each other and the player) from a game, there's clearly something wrong with it. This shit didn't happened with the first Xillia.
>>336829182
Jak 2 and 3 are just edgy, not as good Ratchet and Clank games. Jak 1 isn't even that spectacular of a platformer either.
I only played the trilogy on the HD release though, so if anyone's nostalgia knows something I don't- please tell me why I'm wrong.
>>336836003
>Jak 1 isn't even that spectacular of a platformer either.
I disagree, Jak 1 was pretty great. It was Crash Bandicoot, except now instead of everything being linear as fuck you've got a completely open world with no load times or anything.
>>336836003
fuck off
>>336829182

>>336829270
why is this guy dressed like twoface
how does that shirt even work, like is it just half a shirt that just happens to be symmetrical with his nanomachine half or does the shirt also use nanomachines
why isn't the tie or his pants in half like the shirt though
>>336830449
>CRINGINGLY EDGY
Nothing was edgy about jak 2
>>336836379
Are you for real?
>>336830597
They're called episodes anon meaning all the episodes are PSO as a whole. Though Xenoblade X is the true PSO2
Jak 3 was the best game in the series. I played through it probably like 8 times. It's simply perfect.
>>336836463
Are you? If you think Jak 2 is edgy I'm not sure how you can think anything isn't.
>>336836379
Anon do you even remember the first thing Jak said in 2? Do you even know how that game was developed?
>>336836572
The game was so bad to begin with I gave up before I reached any of the good levels.
It's far from perfect.
>>336836813
It's lightyears better than 2
>>336836643
>get tortured for years
>it's somehow edgy to want revenge
yeah okay, spic.
>>336836857
Did you actually enjoy riding buggies for half the game?
>>336836643
Do you remember how the scene turned out to be later? Context, nigger.
>>336836643
Name more edgy things in Jak II
>>336836881
It's edgy to have your protagonist endure years of torture, yes.
>>336836881
Being edgy on purpose is still being edgy. The set-up for it was no less hamfisted.
>>336837103
>>336837124
was it also edgy when literally 1 mission later he was making jokes with daxter?
>>336837269
It was edgy when he spent the entire rest of the game scowling at people or shooting cops.
>>336837370
Did you actually play the game? Because he stopped being angry ONE MISSION LATER!
>>336837531
You mean when he met Torn, the guy who talked shit at you for the whole game in the most cringeworthy "What a 12 year old thinks a cool tough guy looks like" fashion?
>>336837757
>>336837091
>Jak literally has a psychotic alternate persona fueled by Dark Eco, the fucking EVIL TOXIC SUBSTANCE that corrupted the villains of the first game
>Takes place in a brutal police state in a post-apocalyptic future where no other major human settlement is said to exist (until 3, anyway)
>Jak literally got tortured for two years straight and the devs gave him a goatee to signify his new bad boy personality
>A sizeable segment of the map is built on the ruins of your old hometown
>Everything to do with the Metalheads and the dying world narrative
>Violent smuggler and mob boss is a core ally
And then there's the things that are edgy when compared to J&D
>Guns guns and more guns
>Aesthetically based on fucking Mad Max of all things
>Your main enemy are the totalitarian police and twisted demonic creatures from another dimension
>Generally more dark and sarcastic humour aimed at a teenage audience instead of a family one
>>336829182
Pic not related.
>>336837884
MGS2 played worse than MGS1.
I guess you could call it intentional with the whole theme of misdirection but I came away from the game feeling like I wasted my money.
>>336837957
>>Aesthetically based on fucking Mad Max of all things
hahaha what? It's orwellian distopia if anything.
>>336838429
I can see why someone would say Jak 3 is Mad Max, even though that's wrong.
Jak 2? That's such a dumb statement.

Remember when you could safely state Jak 2 was a shit game and everyone would agree with you before all the underage mouthbreathers who actually played it grew up and got old enough to post on 4Chan? We truly are on neo-/v/
>>336838905
The thing is, I actually did play it when I was young.
And I didn't have the first game.
And it's still shit.
>>336838592
>>336838429
Mad Max is more than just deserts and cars m8s.
The clothing, the styling of the dilapidated urban setting, fuck even a lot of the tech in the rundown shithole part of Haven are reminiscent of MM1.
>>336838098
Say what you will about the actual content of the game but mgs2 has mechanics and controls lightyears ahead of mgs1 and the hardest guards in the series
The game really comes together during the vr missions in the re release
>>336838905
win was that never
>>336829748
But they were all good.

Keira is muh fucken waifu for laifu
I used to pause with the select button and fap.
Too bad they ruined her in jak x
>>336840674
How so? She at least got to fucking talk again instead of being silent like she was the scared spouse in a domestic abuse story every scene she appeared throughout Jak 3.
Now Lost Frontier... god they fucking destroyed everything good about her.
>>336840674
My first actual crush. I used to roleplay Jak and Daxter at school with a girl at elementary school and she'd be Kiera. I wonder what she's up to now?
>>336840795
this
>>336840795
Well i seem to remember her voice changed and it sounded worse. wasn't it the voice actor from rugrats or something distracting?
And here's a perfect example
>>336841118
>>336841121
Just something about the face was off-putting.
>>336841118
>he didn't pursue
YOU FOOL!!!!!
>>336841370
I believe it was Tara Strong, and she was ok, just not as good as the original, who was Palmon from Digimon. Still, better she got a voice again instead of being silent for no reason.
>>336838905
They grew up with the PS2 as kids, what did you expect? It's same as the autist who grew up with Sonic 2006 and thought that was a good game.

Well, I was only 9-11.
>>336842196

>>336842304
>>336842445
>>336840175
Much better
>>336842472
I don't know. Its too late now anyway. She was middel class and a normie and I'm so autistic I became a borderline tranny. During highschool I lost contact with her because our school was 55% not white, and to fit in I tried to be ghetto. I failed misreably andstarted skipping school and reverting back to myold love of boats, sea creatures and geology. By the last 2 years of school, I was skipping virtually every class with some wierd guy I didn't like and at the age of 18 got the compulsion to be a tranny. My soul is irredeemaqble and I've accepted that now. She probably does still live in Manchester, but I'm a different person and I don't even know if I like her anymore.
>>336830095
sequel to what? It certainly wasn't better than Heretic.
>>336842895
>She was middel class and a normie and I'm so autistic I became a borderline tranny.
Well then...if you cannot have Keira you must BECOME her.
Good luck, anon
And then the third game had to go and screw up the fisticuffs, have a rushed story because Sony wanted the game out super quick, and SHRUNK Chloe's ass.

Rehash bandisloot, shy pooper, ratshit and stank, ballsac and haxtar, and so many other shitty franchises are complete ass and the only reason anyone thinks they're anything close to not the functional equivalent of a heaping mound of garbage is because they were the few games that took more than 20 minutes to beat among the mountain of shovel ware shit that got dumped on the wobbleststion 2 which is all you played with when you were kids because your family was to fucking poor to buy anything other than some two bit nip cuck mediocre DVD player

>>336852154
>>336852267
I like MGS3 too, probably more than 2. But saying 2 is bad, or even suggesting it's a bad sequel when it perfectly deconstructs what it means to be a sequel (albeit arguably in a 2deep4u way), is literally r/atheism-tier fedora.
>>336852494
>it perfectly deconstructs what it means to be a sequel is literally r/atheism-tier fedora.
>>336852574

Meaning you have no logical defense for the mess known as MGS2
>>336853016
Where's your logical critique of MGS2 outside of greentext, "it's bad", or saying it's fedoralord then?
>>336853381
Big shell is poorly designed
Raiden & Rose are horrible characters
the entire game goes pants on head retarded at Arsenal Gear
Poorly designed boss fights (with Solidus being one of the worst due to only being able to use the sword)
you will likely strawman my complaints with ">muh Snake" because I bitched about Raiden. You MGS2 fags always do that.
>>336851305
Mgs3 is my favorite for story and gameplay
Mgs2 is pretty good if you aren't constantly listening to rose apart from the king kong story.
Mgs1 is kino
Mgspw has good game play but story is kind of retarded and those shitty ai fights suck. I did enjoy the audio logs same goes for phantom pain apart from quiet and skull girls boss fights those were awesome.
Mgsv has good gameplay awesome licensed soundtrack shame about putting own music in though. (yes I know you can mod files). Story is meh wish we got island of flies. Still a good time to be had, I love Micky D Miller because he had the hardest fallout with boss.
Haven't touched gb mgs wish i could and haven't got around to giving mg1&2 a play will soon though.
FUCK HUEY
Still hurts even though they just stood there and saluted but dammit they had good dialogue and the music playing when I had to do it choked me up.

>>336853607
>Big shell is poorly designed
It doesn't have the sense of exploration that Shadow Moses or Tselinoyarsk had. But you at least have more freedom with moving around it.
>Raiden & Rose are horrible characters
I hate the muh April 30th shit too but Rose fits with Raiden's character so much. On top of being so pathetic he's also whipped as fuck.
And yeah the ">muh Snake" is all correct and you've already heard it so I won't repeat it.
>the entire game goes pants on head retarded at Arsenal Gear
MGS2 is pretty much the definition of plot twist. When everything you know turns out to be wrong.Was Solidus actually the villain? Was Rose even real? Was the whole thing VR?
>Poorly designed boss fights
Some, like Fatman and Vamp are pretty lame, but the rest are cool. It's also a nice touch that Fortune is the first boss Raiden fights and he can't kill her.
>You MGS2 fags

Where did this Jak 2 is bad meme come from?
>>336857412
from the game being bad
>>336857412
from idiots that think the game is to hard
>>336842550
Best Jak girl
>>336858239
People thought jak 2 was hard?
I hated the forced edginess, the pull away from fun colourful island plaforming, the focus on vehicles and a semi-open hub area with police who chase you for being naughty and stealing vehicles, the focus on magic powers and supercool dark emo jak with his super powers. It was blatantly trying to cash in on the success of the gta 3 open world formula but it was horseshit. The levels felt disjointed, the story sucked, you didn't care about the characters, the vehicle control was clumsy.
>>336830449
The worst part of Jak 2 was that there was no reason to explore the city. You have this massive open world, but the only thing to do in it are the missions that are marked on your map and there isn't even anything to collect otherwise. Even the first Jak & Daxter was just a watered down Banjo-Kazooie.
>>336856250
>using objectively wrong
>>336858673
Jak 2 was hard in the sense that you could only realistically be hit four times and the checkpoints were retardedly far apart.
In contrast I think Jak 3 was slightly too easy.
>>336859005
this game is one of the main reasons I got a ps3 instead of just playing infamous at a friend's house.
>>336856556
I wish I could find my copy of Sly 2. Easy the best of the trilogy.
>>336859350
I went into that series thinking the first game was a kind of post-apocalyptic survival sandbox thing that just happened to give you superpowers.
And then all the enemies turned into weirdos with ink powers and I lost interest because fuck super hero games.
>>336859506
you sound stupid
>>336829182
Thank you dude
/v/ wanks over Jak 1 so hard but it was just a mediocre crash bandicoot reskin
Sure, Jak 2 was a GTA 3 ripoff but at least it was way better than Jak 1. Jak 3 is the true gem of the series.
>>336859506
>all the enemies turned into weirdos with ink powers
the reapers? oh man, you missed the second area, where all the enemies are people with garbage bag suits that can chuck around reanimated pieces of garbage.
the second game might be more to your taste: the three factions are a hillbilly militia, a guerilla commando team of enemies given ice powers through experimentation, and mutant abominations.
>>336830237
