Nope, you can't, reasons:

>strafing was an improvement but keeping the fire button to O was bullshit and taking into account the game was more action-oriented than R&C1, this was even shittier

>That new thruster-pack had only one good section (the highway), the rest were pure garbage, hold X down and move forward woooooo so difficult.

>Horrible weapon upgrade balancing, blitz shotgun was OP as fuck at the beginning but then it becomes absolutely useless even after the upgrade and that's just one example.

>Worst HUD ever, the health bar is just a joke to look at.

>Sniveleak boss sucks shit.

>Yeti planet, kek, just kek.

Sony platformers in general are overrated as fuck. Spyro as well was mediocre at best but gets a free pass due to nostalgia and the "comfy" meme.
>>
FEEL THE PAIN
>>
Yeahhhh no
>>
>>339935629
think the weapon balance vs enemy power creep is bad in 2? Try ToD lmao
>>
>>339935629

Those are all minor blemishes on a brilliant game.
>Worst HUD ever, the health bar is just a joke to look at.
What a fucking joke of a complaint
>>
Also no distinct villain, a real disappointment after chairman Drek.
>>
>>339937902

Drek wasn't that good a villain.
Nefarious was great though.
>>
>>339937902
not to mention Angela being retconned out of the plot after 2
>>
>>339937902
>Needing a distinct villain

You a retard, son?
>>
>>339937791
If a game has that many blemishes it's definitely not "brilliant"
>>
>>339938537

Two bad levels and subpar weapon balancing - so what?
Every other complaint is completely insignificant.

>Sony platformers are overrated
I can agree for Crash and Jak but Ape Escape is great
>>
>>339938816
It was good but nothing special. Better than anything by Naughty Dog or Insomniac though, I will give you that much.
>>
>>339938741
And the shitty controls.
>>
>>339939393

>shitty controls
What, because circle is your attack button? That's standard. What kind of shitter struggles to press circle?
>>
>>339935629
Yeah, 3 is clearly superior.
>>
>>339939770
Sasha was the better girl anyway.
>>
>>339939770
and Crack in Time is the best in the entire franchise overall while the remake has the best combat.

No it doesn't. It's the same combat as the PS3 games but it since it runs at 30 fps it's automatically worse since it's less responsive.
>>
>>339939770
3 is much better, but a bit too easy.

really the only thing it was missing was the upgrade system from ToD

>>339940069
30fps fucking sucks but everything about the combat still feels better

Deadlocked was good.

Absolutely awful on the first playthrough
Fucking great on future playthroughs once you admit that you're not playing a ratchet and clank game.
Doing a new game 100% playthrough on 5 star difficulty was fun as fuck

You're going to have to be a bit more descriptive than "feels better" if you want anyone to have any idea what you mean.
>>
>>339940273
Well of course it's not a Ratchet&Clank game. It's a Ratchet game.
>>
>>339939219
I'd honestly say that Ape Escape 1 and 3 are my two favorite "collectathon" platformers. A hell of a lot better than. Anything Naughty Dog, Sega, Rare or other publishers put out to compete with Mario 64.

The premise of your collectibles being quirky monkeys that attack you and run from you while all being distinct fixed the issue the genre has with feeling like a slow scavenger hunt, and the series has enough charm and replay value to back it up. It's more action oriented than something like Banjo, Croc or Jak, and the game is so much better for it.

Go to /vr/ if you want to do that
Every console in the 6th and 5th gens had their own selection of great games.

I actually haven't played it
I've been meaning to pick it up for a while
>>
>>339941326

The Jak series is massively overrated.
>>
>>339941430
Yeah it's really good I emulated it not too long ago with the only problems being some minor texture glitches the only real complaint I have is the music not being as good as AE1 or AE3 but that's a given since Terada didn't compose the music for it but it's pretty decent on its own still.

lol
>>
>>339937791
not really, stuff like weapon variety is quite important in a game all about shooting things so weapons constantly becoming redundant is a pretty severe problem especially since you can get attached to certain weapons only to find that they don't do enough damage or w/e to be really useful

iirc this was less of an issue in ng+ but that doesn't really redeem it
>>
>>339942961

The weapon balancing did detract from the feasible weapon selection, which is a shame, but even then the weapon variety puts most games to shame.
>>
>>339942961
I don't think it's a severe problem at all when the game is never hard enough to justify needing to have the highest damage output possible. Of course, trying to defeat the last boss with just the Spiderbot Glove for example isn't gonna work, but it's obviously not meant to be used for bosses.

GC's only big screw up on the weapons is the Lava Gun's upgrade.
