jak x is better

i was going to gibe at this post for even entertaining such an idea, but then i looked the game up and discovered that it was actually quite well received

why, i thought it sucked

its really fun

idk naughty dog really excells at racing games if nothing else

the driving itself is like a MUCH faster crash team racing in that it still relies on drifting for boosts, so it retains that satisfying feeling plus it adds a pretty deep weapons system and an awesome industrial rock soundtrack

hmm, maybe i should give it another try

i only played it once, knowing you could play as ratchet, but i don't know if it's because i picked a shitty vehicle or something, or if they intentionally made ratchet shitty as a joke, but the driving just felt really stiff to me

i also had a pretty scratched-up disc so idk maybe that made it play shittier or something

i mean, it's not a cart racer so the vehicles aren't going to handle the same way

but there are upgrades for each vehicle you're supposed to get through the story mode that help alleviate that weird feeling

idk i didn't like it much either growing up but i'm really having fun with it replaying on the ps4. in mario kart it feels like you're punished for being in first but in jak x there's only one "cheap" item that kills you instantly, you actually have defenses and maneouvers to combat those items
