    I wouldn't bring any of those back.
    Sly is mediocre kids 3d platformer
    Rapper game was product of it's time, no need for more.
    Never got in to jak and daxter, it's just mess.
    Ape escape well the first game was fun novelty but the sequels were lame. Spin offs were better. In any case no need to bring it back unless it's some party game spinoff

      I agree.
      Sly 1 was the only good one, the others were all unfocused kids garbage. Sly 4 came and went
      Jak 1 was also the only good one
      Parapa wont sell for shit, even if we get both on 1 bundle, its a 3 hour game.
      New ape escape would be nice.

      I'm just sick of remasters, even more so since they have been remasterd all on the ps3.
      A new ape escape would be rad

        jak 1 is the best one? damn I just platted it and thought it was terrible. if your wondering why I platted it it's because it took me like 3 hours to do so on my first playthrough.

        I couldn't imagine paying 60 bucks for that as a kid.

          Not that guy, but it's safe to say ND would be deeply embarrassed by Jak today.
          [...]
          2 is the best one, it's just needlessly difficult and makes everybody butthurt. 1 is just a charming tech demo.

          Jak 1 and Jak 2 are so hard to talk about in the same conversation because they're so different.
          Jak 1 is a light hearted collectathon about trying to help Daxter and stopping the bad guys, Jak 2 is a gritty platformer shooter about Jak being tortured for 2 years only to fight as a one man army against 2 warring factions the moment he's free.
          I wouldn't call Jak 2 a sequel to Jak 1, but I also wouldn't call it a bad game by any means.

    So it looks like Sony is working on PS2 and PS3 emulation for PS5
    >A Sacred Symbols+ podcast (paywalled) with Tom from Moore's Law is Dead — someone who told TrueTrophies all about the PS5 Pro two years ago — and well-connected journalist-turned-pundit Colin Moriarty, elaborated a little on a previous leak about PS3 emulation on PS4. Previously, Tom has mostly reported on PS5 Pro, though has clearly got an insider somewhere at Sony chatting about PS3 emulation too.

    >"I talked about a leak or some information I had that I stand by to this day: [Sony] have it working. It's just that it's working in like half the games." Tom goes on to reiterate and expand on the leak he'd heard previously: "Actually, what I heard is that they got [PS3 emulation] working at a playable state on about a dozen games even on the PS4, but then there'd be like a hundred games that can't even run [using the same emulator]. It's still got work to do.

    This was the beginning of the year, so by now they would probably have some tangible progress to show this week.

    Successful IPs never should've left in the first place.

    Only one with seriously good remake potential is Jak because you can do away with the IPs identity crisis by having the games be consistent with each other in tone, gameplay, artstyle, etc. and through that Jak won't alienate certain markets.
    That being said, I don't trust Naughty "we don't use the word fun" Dog to do it, I wouldn't even trust Insomniac to do it because of how they've been treating Ratchet in recent times, just get a competent and properly funded team that cares about Jak to do it in a reasonable timeframe.

    You could remake any of the others, but at best you'd end up with something like the N-Sane Trilogy and at worst something like Ratchet 2016.

    Eh. All of these franchises had there time in the sun and for the most part, had their stories told.
    If they are to bring something like Sly or Jak back whether as a new game or mostly likely a remake, a few questions should be floating around especially after the mixed reception of the Crash and especially Spyro's remakes. Questions like "With our current team are we up to task to polish up a great from a prior console gen?"
    "Are we able to accomplish anything with this franchise beyond going "LOOK "x" IS BACK" and capitalizing on nostalgia?"
    "Are we going to have to butcher aspects of said franchise in order to mesh better with modern sensibilities? As someone who replayed the Jak games like a month back I can say Daxter specifically would have to be neutered for the zoomies"

          I do think they could probably adjust the controls. Although part of the reason the controls are what they are, is cause of the dual stick stuff. I think it would be a shame to make the gadgets simple button presses, though it would free up the right stick for the camera.

              Maybe they could tie camera control to the right stick, using a toggle with, say, L2 or something. Might alleviate some of the issues without sacrificing everything else. Then use the Dpad to change gadgets, and the face buttons could be opened up. And just leave an option for classic controls as well.

        I couldn't imagine paying 60 bucks for that as a kid.

      Technically, it did, in the same way parappa did.
      With a port to the PSP, and it's not too unlikely if it did come back yet again it'd return similarly as a port of the PSP version to the current home console.

          Huh? the presentation is great. You should actually give Astrobot a chance. It's the one thing Sony has put out in a while that is actually worth a damn and it feels very similar to something theywould have put out during 6th gen. Both Rescue Mission if you can track down a PSVR headset on the cheap, and the pack in game Playroom on every PS5 are very good. The studio behind that one are pretty talented devs

          Ape Academy 1 and 2 are basically you taking the minigames out of Mario Party and just making a game around playing them.
          Ape Quest is that but you also fight bosses and stuff as you go around a map doing the minigames.
          Million Monkeys is the one I'm least familiar with, I've played like an hour of it but everyone says it's pretty good.
          Big Adventure is awesome and feels like a slightly slimmed down main game with a different gimmick (You controlling the monkeys).
          Racing was awful and I keep trying to play it every few years but each time I hate it.
          I don't own a Move but everyone who I've seen mention it say it's underwhelming.

      It’s sort of a platformer collectathon, where the collectibles are monkeys you have to catch in a net. You also have other objects that can help with traversing levels or fighting.

    • 10 months ago
      Anonymous

      So it's an non-linear level platformer where your objective is to capture monkeys. Within stages you use gadgets to solve built in puzzles or to disarm monkeys to then catch them with your net. Each game features a myriad of gadgets that you make use of such as a hulahoop that allows you to dash, a slingshot for hitting distant objects, a double bladed fan that you use to hover over long distances.
      People generally don't make threads to actually talk about Ape Escape on Ganker largely because of the pedophiles shitting them up.
      Amusingly, the character they shit up threads with is for the easy mode of Ape Escape 3.
