That alone would tell me they aren't serious.

Just preordered Starhawk from HMV, I wasn't going to get it just yet, was going to wait a month or two, but Sony emailed me earlier today (While I was at work, just seen the email now) with a discount code if I preorder from HMV, so I got it for a fiver cheaper, yay me! Not to mention I'd have missed out on the preorder content too, such as the soundtrack, I love videogame soundtracks :D
So today I finally opened my copy of The Jak and Daxter Trilogy, and started playing through the first game...
Wow, they did a good fucking job with making the graphics prettier, that's for sure, it looks really nice, I mean, it's not amazing, but it's still REALLY nice to look at, and the 60fps makes it all seem so fluid! (I've heard Jak II and Jak III look tons better than this too, can't wait to check them out and see!)
The controls are still a little awkward with the camera and stuff, but I didn't think they'd have fixed that anyway... doesn't matter though, it's still a fun as fuck game, and from the trophylist will be easy to platinum...
Talking about the collection, I've just ordered the Devil May Cry Trilogy, got it for only £18 (It's between £25-30 everywhere else...) and that'll be here on Tuesday, and I also bought Dark Void, yeah I've heard it's terrible, but I sort of like the idea of the game, besides, I tend to disagree with most peoples opinions when it comes to "bad games", and to make everyone feel better, I paid a grand total of £0.00 for it... yeah, I used my points to get it entirely for free, it was only meant to be £3.85 anyway, and I've still got around £45ish worth of points I can use on anything... (Actually gonna' use £30 of it to get Diablo III for free, yay!)

So I've just finished Jak And Daxter on the HD collection disc, it was as great as the first time I remembered it, and I COULD get the platinum since I'm pretty close, but /effort...
I started Jak II: Renegade about an hour and half ago, it's my first time playing the game (I'll admit, I own the first game, never played the second or third, this is probably why I rate the Ratchet series above it... maybe it'll change after Jak II and Jak 3?)
One word to describe my feelings so far: DAFUQ?!
It's gone from a bright and colourful platforming adventure game, to a dark and grimy GTA style action game... it even has a free roam around the city (Well, the first was SORT OF free roam) with multiple missions you can do at once, and then there's the ability to kill civilians and police... and theres guns... AND SWEARING?!... seriously, the fuck is going on here? And I really dislike Jak's voice so far, it's too... gravelly for his appearence... not sure what to think, I mean, a lot of people have praised the games for their direction, but so far I'm not liking it, I mean Jak isn't the kind of guy to steal a hover car, fly low and run people over, then crash it into another car to watch the explosion... and yet I've done that multiple times, it's just so... different.

Yeah it's freaking me out so much, like, the game isn't bad at all, but it's just... it's not Jak And Daxter, y'know? And playing the second game literally 30 seconds after finishing the first... it's just an awful transition! And there's NO FUCKING WAY Jak would look THAT much older, and talk the way he does, after just TWO YEARS in prison! DAFUQ NAUGHTY DOG, Y U NO KEEP JAK SAME?!
I can't say much regarding Jak's growth and such without revealing some spoilers, but there are some plot devices in effect that explain everything, if I'm remembering correctly. As for your platforming, you will get plenty of that later on. The environments in Jak 2 keep pretty gritty, with the exception of two I think, but Jak 3 has a lot of variation and a fuckton more platforming.

I just orderd my racing wheel today :D i got back the 300 bucks rogers owed me... so i just need to run to the bank and put that money on my credit card before they charge me... oh god i want the wheel NOW gonna be epic
Well I'm about halfway through Jak II right now, and so far, Ratchet > Jak, like SO much... Jak and Daxter: TPL is a BRILLIANT game (Always have loved it), But Jak II is just... dear god I don't want to carry on but I must... and the shooting sort of sucks balls to be honest...
