Weird. Tuesday is almost always New Game Release Day (at EB and maybe a few other stores). But maybe there was a shipping problem......

Tuesday is the SHIPPING day... Around here stores like EB and Gamestop don't get theirs in until Wednsday, and Best Buy and the like don't get it in until Thursday or so...

1) I'll be picking up Jak 2 by the end of the month. I'll probably go pick it up when SSX3 comes out (along with SSX3

)

2) Ratchet and Clank is AMAZING

The game comes in tomorrow at my local video game rental store. Sweet.

I have many complaints.

The levels are dull and uninteresting. The lighting is severly lacking or non existant (can't remember now). It gets very repetitive (not the fun kind of repetitive, but the boring kind). The amount of weapons is good, but most of them I found once again uninteresting . I like the weapon where those mini robots attack.

It just didn't interest me. I'd like to say it did, but it didn't. I still have it, and nobody wants to buy it from me

Jak II got a 9.1 from Gamespot.

That's very good.

Here it is...

I know usually Tuesday is a shipping day (although lately it seems that Nintendo ships games on a Monday and EB gets them on a Tuesday) but when Joeiss posted yesterday (Tuesday) that the game wasnt going to be in for 3 more days, all I said was that its weird that he has to wait until Friday to get it.

So I know which day is the shipping day for a game and which day is the "selling/release" day for a game.

Ah yes, Jak 2 has arrived. I played it for about 2 and a half hours straight. Lots of good stuff, very hard to put down. I got frustrated with one mission, so I decided to play Megeman X7 (good game, but TERRIBLE voice acting, bleh).

I'm quite impressed with this game. Lots of fun.

Joeiss · 10-15-2003, 09:25 PM

I just picked the game up too! It is great. It turns out that they weren't getting the game in on Friday, lol... Stupid new employees.

The game is really fun, and I like how the world it big. Driving is great, and I love weaving in and out of traffic (both side to side and up to down). Very fun. Just don't piss off those guards!

I'm 5% complete! Oh yea, you can't stop this, lol.

Me too...same story, store got it in like 5 minutes before I called. The game is gorgeous, eh? The animations (especially in the cutscenes) are amazing. Voice acting is very good, the story is pretty generic right now, but there are a few interesting characters that haven't really been introduced yet that I'm looking forward to. Love Jak's attitude, love Daxter's humour. Perfect combo there...gameplay is good so far, the city isn't as bad as some reviewers claimed it is.

More impressions later.
