Either way, good or not, Sony shouldn't be breaking games when they port them like this. Jak 1 was shoved out in an unworkable state too, and combined with the glacial pace that PS2 Classics seem to come out, Sony just comes off as being the worst at re-releasing their back catalog out of any of the big three these days.

No, Jak II is bad my dude, and I'm even a fan of 1 and 3. It's a game that feels like staff at Naughty Dog were going in and out the door in perpetual transition (which is basically what was happening at the time), and therefore has almost no concrete identity. It's ambitious, sure, but at this point only serves as a set-up for Jak3: Fury Road

GTA3 might be the single defining game of the PS2 gen, and Vice City was such a perfect refinement of its design that even San Andreas felt like old hat by the time it came out.


Bloodsouls.

Jam II is better than both 3 and Vice city but that is more because GTA is trash outside SA the one good game.

Yeah with the exception of color pallet I can’t think of anything Vice City does better than San Andreas, and GTA sucks because the combat is balls rear end, every gun is the same, every game

Jak 2/3 have lots of different toys in the toy box, it’s more fun for me than any amount of GTA “Drive here, shoot fitty men, drive home”

I am SO glad I never jumped in on the season pass. I stopped playing about a month ago, and I still managed to fully max out three characters in that short time frame. Bungie is just not giving it's hardcore playerbase ANY incentive to keep playing, mainly because all the best end-game loot is trapped behind loot boxes.

In EDF5 picking up the same weapon drop gradually improves the stats of that weapon, and you can pick up weapons for other classes. Also, completing a stage on a difficulty level marks it as complete for lower difficulty levels too. Still can’t tell if armor collecting is the traditional bullshit or not though.

I really liked the Division, which plays similar. And crazy enough, they are still producing content for that game.

There's plenty to criticize og Destiny for but the "x hours of gameplay per dollar" is a really dumb one. it had a campaign that was roughly similar in length to a Call of Duty or other peers and plenty of coop and comp multiplayer content for people who wanted it. Granted the campaign sucked and was nonsensical but it was plenty of game.

Yeah they just dropped a new expansion yesterday. Offers a new PvE and PvP mode, changes to the PvP zone to make it less rear end, and updated one of the paid expansions. If you're not attached to spacemen it's a good shoot n' loot. It too had a crapton of problems at launch, much like D1/D2 but they've kept working on it.

I'd care more about The Division if the loot I got was cooler and not literally stuff I'm wearing as I'm playing the game. I put a bunch of time into that game last year and it's all purple tactilol stuff and jeans.

Pretty much. I played through the main campaign in the first game and then just traded it in because the end game stuff was loving dire but i have a friend who is obsessed with the series and takes days off work and poo poo when new content drops.

He complains about how poo poo and lightweight it all is after a couple of hours every single time.

There's something about it that makes me bounce off it. I like the setting, the guns but the shooting doesn't feel great. Destiny has awful movement and other flaws but shooting is fun at least (not talking about 2 since I didn't play it).
