Ooh. This along with the Jak & Dacter HD + the oddworld HD thingies coming out this year... my nostalgia games are gonna be all nice and new and shiny again just need Spyro HD now.
Most of these packs seem to contain 2-3 games, so that's one reason. Can't have us having TOO much bang for our buck, right Sony?jdogtwodolla said:So I have to wonder why Deadlocked isn't coming out in HD.
...Your asking for an IP owned by Sony to be released on 360...TizzytheTormentor said:Sigh...why can't this be for Xbox 360 also...
I loved ratchet and clank and would buy this in a heartbeat, but of course this whole exclusive bullshit is more important than sales numbers.
I suspected the reception of it's mechanics might have had something to do with it. I barely saw any footage of the game but I could tell it was turning into a more dark franchise than when I was playing it. Also, at a demo kiosk I saw the weapons and I kinda got that feeling of the motions when seeing someone else playing.Raggedstar said:Most of these packs seem to contain 2-3 games, so that's one reason.

Also, Deadlocked is somewhat the black sheep. The reception among fans is somewhat polar because of how different the game was to the others. Might be a similar reason that Jak X wasn't on the Jak and Daxter collection. There is a greater focus on combat than collecting and platforming. The tone is also a lot darker without a lot of the light humor. It also had co-op and multiplayer and I hear a lot of people weren't as pleased with it compared to UYA's. With a few exceptions (like the scorpion flail), the game lacks any meaty weapons. Mostly it's your classic blaster-shottie-bomb-rocket-turret affair.
Though personally, I liked Deadlocked. One of the weaker ones, but still good. Miles better than All 4 One. At least Deadlocked was still functional and enjoyable alone.
Captcha: Giggy goat? Yes, indeed I am a giddy goat to soon have my Ratchet games in HD.
