BACKER
inaccurate controls combined with okayish level design make this game not the best platformer
A bit better than the first game but still eh. The new mechanics are fun, especially the new board levels but still unprecise controls. The story is alright, I think I prefer the story of the first game.
Movement and soundtrack top, everything else a flop. The world kinda sucks, it is too shiny and the story was so boring, I stopped caring after a while. The new movement gimmicks are fun, and so are the dashes.

My Game of the Year.
Such an improvement on the other two great games. First of all, the story. Kraven the Hunter is an amazing villain and I think the arc is great BUT the whole symbiote/Venom arc is top tier. We don't need an Eddie to make a great Venom arc, Harry made totally sense here. It's a refreshing take. I thought the venom arc was slow at first (but they focused on Kraven which makes sense) but it picked up pretty fast. All the boss fights during the story are amazing, especially the last venom fight but also Miles vs Peter. Peter ripping off the symbiote is a top moment in this game. Also playing as Venom???? HELLO????
The gameplay is a lot of fun. Nothing can top SM2 when it comes to movement. It feels so smooth, you can feel every swing and the wing suit is a great addition. Also the combat is a lot of fun. I am glad they reduced the gadget wheel because it felt kinda bloated in the first game and only four gadgets are great. The different abilites are well animated and just fun to use.
The side stuff is not repetitive like in the first game. The flame sidequest ties in very well with the story of this game and the first one. EMF one was very emotional. What surprised me was the Spiderbot quest... Great tie-in to an amazing movie series!
The only miss the game has are the suits. While Miles suits are mostly great, Peters aren't. There are too many MCU suits and a lot of them could have been variants of others.
If you liked SM1 and MM, you will LOVE this one.

Nostalgia blinded me
2005
i don't know what they were thinking about when creating this racing game but they made sure it's worse than Jak 2
2023
Great premise aged well but the controls didn't. The cars are pain in the ass to drive. The levels are well designed but too big sometimes, the AI doesn't find you. All the endings are cool but I wish they were actual cutscenes.
2004
Better than Jak 2 but it's just not Jak 1.
The Wasteland is a much better place than Haven City. The guns are fun to use, the story is alright. Kinda hate Ashelin. The villain is very weak. Different cars are fun to drive. I still think the series went into the wrong direction, I do not like this open world mission style. I much prefer the style of the first game.

What a downgrade, holy shit. Trying to be inspired by GTA 3 is what makes it worse. While the story is good, the gameplay and everything else isn't. No checkpoints, huge unnessary map and very boring linear structure. Music good. Jak 3, please be good.
2021
Charming world with cool characters and well designed bosses/dungeons. Difficulty is alright but I had trouble with the final boss. The adventure part is cool and rewards you with going out of the way. Story is simple but interesting.
2018
I think the gameplay loop gets boring after a while but the story islands are the parts that kept me going.
2021
Hot messy shit.
I played it in coop and I encountered so many glitches. Sound bugs, gameplay bugs, my game even crashed a lot of times. Trophies are glitched too.
The gameplay gets very stall after a while, the story and characters are totally forgettable. Only good thing about this game is the music and looks.

I don't know how to feel about this game man. the enemy placement is weird. Maria plays way better than Richter. Multiple routes are cool. Soundtrack is a banger, Castlevania music always slaps. Bosses piss me off.
1986
probably good back then but now just annoying. Bosses are so easy but the stages are quite hard, just because of the knockback. Music is a bop tho.
