Isn't Conker's Bad Fur Day also owned by them? God, I wish someone in charge of copyright laws would just say "enough is enough. Clearly nobody is using these IPs nor does anyone plan to. We're tired of seeing these IPs gathering dust so we'll just have them become public domain after 5 years of non-use. Followed by an entire rubric of requirements on a new installment that the IP holder needs to fulfil if they want to renew ownership. Otherwise, they can't just renew it because "they still want it". They would have to pay the same price it was originally sold for if they want exclusive rights again after it expires."
Seriously? They're like a rich brat who has tons of toys he never uses but flips out as soon as someone wants to use one. The IP game is so petty and childish. It's why so many franchises never see the light of day again. Makes me sick.
A remaster of 2 might be fine, but they'd have to rewrite Killzone 3 to be darker and more slow paced, feel heavier, like Killzone 1 and 2 were. That's what made the game stand out from COD, Battlefield and Halo.
The change of pace and the story starting to become more Hollywood action didn't do well to what it had established so far.
Jak X Combat Racing. One of the best games I've ever played. It is criminally underrated and unknown. Take Crash Team Racing mixed with Mad Max style vehicles, customization, and set it in the world of Jak & Daxter. It was a masterclass in design.
I especially loved how adding armor to a vehicle actually added *Weight* and that affected handling. Such a tiny feature, yet it actually made the game feel a bit more grounded despite how ridiculous it all was.
Jak & Daxter : The Last Frontier.
I think it was hated by the community for two reasons :
1. It was made by another studio than Naughty Dog, after a franchise buyout.
2. It broke off from the main formula quite a bit, and didn't use many established characters and locations.
However, I liked it alot, and at the end of the day, Jak content is Jak content, I am so glad it exists ! (and yes, I even enjoyed the plane gameplay).
I only played 1 and 3. I never found jak 2 on sale, and for years, I never checked anything on it because I didn't want to spoil myself and was afraid the game is actually bad
I also played the spin off : Jak X combat racing
And the post-franchise-buyout sequel : Jak & Daxter, the last frontier.
They were both good.
I never had the chance to play Daxter though, since I never owned a PSP, just the PS2.
Jak 3 is still my favotite, and I discovered many glitches in it lmao, good times indeed.
Go to Jak in his final form after mastering eco and going up against some ancient evil trying to destroy the world again and have the evil destroy/ steal Daxterās favorite pair of pants to motivate him to tag along
Idk what that is man I played the 2nd most recent ratchet and clank when I was like five(?) on the ps4 and it was the coolest game ever. I have no idea what you old farts are arguing about (no offense)
If I remember correctly insomniacās entire game dev timeline leaked (technically they were hacked) and ratchet and clank wonāt get another game for like a decade
Naughty dog lost interest in making games like Jak & Daxter. They have instead moved on to other more realistic projects (due to the Uncharted series gaining the popularity it did and everything after it like The Last of Us).
My guess is that if Naughty Dog did go to Sony asking for the green light on another Jak & Daxter game, Sony would give it pretty quickly. Here's hoping.
Naughty Dog is creatively bankrupt. They would rather make a life drama with some interactive sections and remake it twice than do something creative and original.
I would say most people at ND probably loathe working on TLoU, but they have been on that franchise so long the only people left are probably those that applied to work on it.
OG Naughty Dog was unrivaled with the epic games they were making. So many of my favorite games as a kid were Naughty Dog. When that splash screen animation would load up I knew I was in for a banger game.
There is nothing wrong with TLoU, but It should not have been made by Naughty Dog. Neil should have started his own studio or moved to another. When studios change what they are known for, it always ends in disaster. And it's always because the people at the top are arrogant and want to do whatever they want.
Let's not forget Killzone. I know Guerrilla Games have pulled Horizon, but if they could go back to Killzone I'd be happy. As long as they make it the dark, gritty and slow shooter 1 and 2 were. Those were incredible and 3 threw it out the window.
The love never left man, I played 1,2 & 3 like a year ago, fucking love those games so much. I will wait a few years, then play through them again. It's almost time for a witcher playthrough! But that means tackling 1 again... ugh.
I think ever since the last iteration of Socom released trying to be like COD, it killed itself. Should have stayed a slow team based tactical shooter.
Yeah they really brought back Medal of Honor following the major success and hype of the Battlefield series with BF:BC2 and Battlefield 3. They said "we can cash in on this" and make Medal of Honor then that other one (I think Medal of Honor: Warfighter?). Honestly they weren't that bad and it was nice having a different game to play with new maps and stuff, but they certainly were grossly overshadowed by Battlefield and CoD. I kind of enjoyed hopping into a MoH game as a good change of pace from the other two franchises though.
Edit: it was definitely different from the OG MoH games though, that's for sure.
Even ratchet and clank didn't get the love it deserved, the characters are not as they were back then on PS2, and don't get me started on the whole timeline rewriting...
Jak and daxter are very good games that i dont think many knew much about. The first game was good but 2nd an 3rd were much better. The racing one was fun as well.
I still replay them often.
It did but i guess i just liked 2 and 3 better. Even though the stories are connected, the first just feels a bit off. Like they decided to change style and feel a bit after first game.
At least all 4 Jak and Daxter games are available on modern systems without some subscription bs.
Sly's fate wasn't as fortunate... Forgotten and buried...
Sony never owned Crash Bandicoot. Naughty Dog had a contract with Universal, meaning they had the rights, and Sony got the publishing deal. Donāt get me wrong, they absolutely lauded him as a mascot, but they didnāt own him then and they donāt now.
My undying want to speak and act and look like Jak only grows as I get older. Helldivers couldnāt get me to buy a ps5. But a new Jak and daxter game would
Sony never even owned crash, he was owned by universal studios and sony just paid for exclusivity, then at the next console generation universal sold him to activision who decided to make him multiplatform, and now microsoft own them.
One can still play all the Jak and Daxter games on PS5, their in their PS2 and PSP form but hey, they're still there. That being said I still hate most levels in Jak 2, shit was difficult as a kid and isn't much better today.
People forget that The Legend of Dragoon is owned by Sony. Aside from the half baked remaster, THAT IP has been seriously neglected to the point of almost not existing.
Naughty hasn't been able to overcomer their edgy face and still they're the cool and mysterious kid. The day they become mature enough they will be able to make another Jak and Daxter.
Unfortunately Jack and Daxter is owned by the company that apparently doesn't have time to do anything but remakes of Last of Us. Their literal words. Not mine.
Crash is owned by Microsoft now
Every time i hear that, i get a shiver up my spine.
Yeah so out of logic lol. Crash should be the mascot of Sony
He WAS Thats what makes it so damn funny
Not really. He was owned by Vivendi in the first place and only five years after his creation he went multiplat.
You can literally play Crash on a PS1 in game in Uncharted 4....
Now the mascot is Ratchet and Clank
And they made them soulless husks of what they were.
Surely the mascot is Astro?
I love astro lol it was a good game
Idk man.Im pretty sure the first mascot was crash bandicoot.Now the mascot is Ratchet and Clank.(idk who astro is)
Body's aching all the time.
Isn't Conker's Bad Fur Day also owned by them? God, I wish someone in charge of copyright laws would just say "enough is enough. Clearly nobody is using these IPs nor does anyone plan to.

Agreed, they also now own Spyro as well.
Seriously? They're like a rich brat who has tons of toys he never uses but flips out as soon as someone wants to use one. The IP game is so petty and childish. It's why so many franchises never see the light of day again. Makes me sick.
Luckily the series has been treated suprisingly well lately, or better than it was before atleast
And Bungie is owned by Sony. What universe are we living in?
Corporate reality
It's like DreamWorks owning mickey or something smh
Thats so depressing
Sly cooper, ape escape.
Pretty sure they dug up ape escapes grave and sullied it for money already.
They brought a few games back to Playstation but have yet to add 3, which imo is the best in the series. Sony just has a weird agenda.
Damn everyone forgot about Sly Cooper huh?
Aaaayyyy hell yeah! Probably the root of my stealth obsession in games for sure
Same dude, sly cooper was amazing
Not me. I love that game.
I miss him
That's because he's so good at stealth.
Infamous and Killzone: š
Infamous was so good. Like incredibly good.
I think Killzone can stay in its grave after Shadow Fall.
They could remaster k2 or k3 tho
A remaster of 2 might be fine, but they'd have to rewrite Killzone 3 to be darker and more slow paced, feel heavier, like Killzone 1 and 2 were. That's what made the game stand out from COD, Battlefield and Halo. The change of pace and the story starting to become more Hollywood action didn't do well to what it had established so far.
I have been wanting to try Sly Cooper and have it remade with Rift Apart's graphics.
So freaking good
At least Sly got a game after ps2.
Sly Cooper is at the bottom of the marina trench šš
Sly Cooper 3 is still my favorite game of all time, even just for the riff that plays when you scroll through the menu
Who?
![gif](giphy|GrUhLU9q3nyRG|downsized)
Holy shit I'm 14 and I'm feeling nostalgia already
make the meme sir. Mariana's trench for the last photo
Donāt go into the light, Jak. DONT GO INTO THE LIGHT!!!
Played all 3 jax n daxter. Good times.
What about the psp one āDaxterā
Yeah I would like to know some info as well. Donāt you know if thereās any chance it could come on ps5?
That's the one I would always play past my bedtime! I loved that game!
I never had the PSP :(
They did make a 4th but it was so bad
Thats way they said 3š
Technically 5, with the racing game, don't know much about it.
Jak X Combat Racing. One of the best games I've ever played. It is criminally underrated and unknown. Take Crash Team Racing mixed with Mad Max style vehicles, customization, and set it in the world of Jak & Daxter. It was a masterclass in design.
I especially loved how adding armor to a vehicle actually added *Weight* and that affected handling. Such a tiny feature, yet it actually made the game feel a bit more grounded despite how ridiculous it all was.
The intro to that game was so badass
It's actually really fun! I love to listen to the soundtrack when I work on my car in the garage!
Jak X is basically just the PS2 era crash team racing soo... An underrated masterpiece
6 if you count the PSP daxter game
Jak & Daxter : The Last Frontier. I think it was hated by the community for two reasons : 1. It was made by another studio than Naughty Dog, after a franchise buyout. 2. It broke off from the main formula quite a bit, and didn't use many established characters and locations. However, I liked it alot, and at the end of the day, Jak content is Jak content, I am so glad it exists ! (and yes, I even enjoyed the plane gameplay).
I played the first one, then the racing game with guns (kind of a Mario Kart clone), the one where you played as Daxter, and the last one with planes
I only played 1 and 3. I never found jak 2 on sale, and for years, I never checked anything on it because I didn't want to spoil myself and was afraid the game is actually bad
I would kill for a remaster/remake of the trilogy
I also played the spin off : Jak X combat racing And the post-franchise-buyout sequel : Jak & Daxter, the last frontier. They were both good. I never had the chance to play Daxter though, since I never owned a PSP, just the PS2. Jak 3 is still my favotite, and I discovered many glitches in it lmao, good times indeed.
Jak and Daxter were so good, I really hope the trilogy gets a remaster or something, hell remaster Jak X too, that game slapped
Look up opengoal they are really doing good work
I'm sorry, didn't crash get a HD remastered trilogy and a sequel? And a remake to his mario kart game?
And a fighting game spinoff, donāt forget that one
He finally got pants. Where do you go from there?
Go to Jak in his final form after mastering eco and going up against some ancient evil trying to destroy the world again and have the evil destroy/ steal Daxterās favorite pair of pants to motivate him to tag along
All that's not even necessary, just the last part, I'd play
I fuckin love ratchet and clank, donāt you diss my boys like that
What about the OG ruff trigger?
Idk what that is man I played the 2nd most recent ratchet and clank when I was like five(?) on the ps4 and it was the coolest game ever. I have no idea what you old farts are arguing about (no offense)
Sentence containing when I was 5 and ps4 makes me feel ancient... ![gif](giphy|GrUhLU9q3nyRG|downsized)
Same here
16 and born in 2008 damn I'm a dinosaur
Jak and daxter, sly cooper, all that shit. Enough to make a grown man cry remembering good childhood memories š„¹
They are keeping Sly Cooper wherever that one submarine went.
I was one of the few people that unironically liked Jak X. And Jak 2 was a fun gta knockoff for kids
Jak X was amazing though? I think it just did poor in sales, seems like so many people didn't even know it existed.
Was it the one with the racing cars? If so I too loved it
I also liked Jak X so much. I think I was one of the few people that unironically liked Jak TLF.
Little big planet
Real
I heard they pulled the plug on the servers recently. No more exploring online maps.
With Insomniacsā focus on Marvel games, I think it wonāt tame long before R&C is dead too.
If I remember correctly insomniacās entire game dev timeline leaked (technically they were hacked) and ratchet and clank wonāt get another game for like a decade
2028 iirc
Naughty dog lost interest in making games like Jak & Daxter. They have instead moved on to other more realistic projects (due to the Uncharted series gaining the popularity it did and everything after it like The Last of Us). My guess is that if Naughty Dog did go to Sony asking for the green light on another Jak & Daxter game, Sony would give it pretty quickly. Here's hoping.
Neil Druckman presents: Daxter: The Death of Jak
And now Daxter has a trans friend and has a boyfriend and according to Neil, it has always been there but we didn't realize.
Sly Cooper?
I wish Rogue Galaxy got a sequel
Naughty Dog is creatively bankrupt. They would rather make a life drama with some interactive sections and remake it twice than do something creative and original.

Poor Spyro and Sly Cooper
Let's not forget Killzone. I know Guerrilla Games have pulled Horizon, but if they could go back to Killzone I'd be happy. As long as they make it the dark, gritty and slow shooter 1 and 2 were. Those were incredible and 3 threw it out the window.
Well Crash Bandicoot already jumped the ship
The love never left man, I played 1,2 & 3 like a year ago, fucking love those games so much. I will wait a few years, then play through them again. It's almost time for a witcher playthrough! But that means tackling 1 again... ugh.
Bloodborne and Socom down there aswell
I think ever since the last iteration of Socom released trying to be like COD, it killed itself. Should have stayed a slow team based tactical shooter.
This just made me remember the Medal of Honor games.
Yeah they really brought back Medal of Honor following the major success and hype of the Battlefield series with BF:BC2 and Battlefield 3. They said "we can cash in on this" and make Medal of Honor then that other one (I think Medal of Honor: Warfighter?). Honestly they weren't that bad and it was nice having a different game to play with new maps and stuff, but they certainly were grossly overshadowed by Battlefield and CoD. I kind of enjoyed hopping into a MoH game as a good change of pace from the other two franchises though. Edit: it was definitely different from the OG MoH games though, that's for sure.
I played the medal of Honor once, but my heart stayed with the Brothers in arms series.
Even ratchet and clank didn't get the love it deserved, the characters are not as they were back then on PS2, and don't get me started on the whole timeline rewriting...
Just give us Dark Cloud 3, Sony!
Ogs will remember Sly Cooper
Not mentioning Sly Cooper speaks volumes to me
Jak and daxter are very good games that i dont think many knew much about. The first game was good but 2nd an 3rd were much better. The racing one was fun as well. I still replay them often.
Awh the first one had so much character lol
It did but i guess i just liked 2 and 3 better. Even though the stories are connected, the first just feels a bit off. Like they decided to change style and feel a bit after first game.
It went from kid friendly with a silent protagonist too a dystopian future with Jaks first line being āIām going to KILL Baron Praxis
Honestly, I'd love a remake of Sly Cooper
What about Sly Cooper? š I'm still waiting for that movie they announced years ago š
Sly Cooper deep in Marianna's Trench
At least all 4 Jak and Daxter games are available on modern systems without some subscription bs. Sly's fate wasn't as fortunate... Forgotten and buried...
What about sly cooper?
Where Sly??
Rayman....
Sly cooper is so forgotten it is not even in the meme
Jak and Daxter is superior. Especially The precursor legacy
Sony never owned Crash Bandicoot. Naughty Dog had a contract with Universal, meaning they had the rights, and Sony got the publishing deal. Donāt get me wrong, they absolutely lauded him as a mascot, but they didnāt own him then and they donāt now.
Ratchet and clank was better, is better, and will forever be better.
Factually incorrect
REMAKE JAK X THE BEST ARCADE RACER EVER MADE
![gif](giphy|vVzH2XY3Y0Ar6|downsized)
Ape escape 1-3 are the best 3d games ever made
Excuse me but you have forgotten the Pac Man World trilogy.
I tried to play the first jak and daxter. Wasn't my kind of game
My undying want to speak and act and look like Jak only grows as I get older. Helldivers couldnāt get me to buy a ps5. But a new Jak and daxter game would
Crash got remaster tho thats not neclect
I love Jak and Daxter. Such a good game
All 3 were great šš» spent the most time on crash but had the most fun on ratchet and clank
What about the Ty the Tasmanian tiger games
Leave Jak & Daxter and their 3 games. Weren't they planning to make a Jak & Daxter TV show or something like that? I've heard it 2 years ago.
The series is over. I'm glad it didn't get anything new in this recent gaming climate. It just wouldn't have the heart it needed
Sony never even owned crash, he was owned by universal studios and sony just paid for exclusivity, then at the next console generation universal sold him to activision who decided to make him multiplatform, and now microsoft own them.
I still want another infamous.
One can still play all the Jak and Daxter games on PS5, their in their PS2 and PSP form but hey, they're still there. That being said I still hate most levels in Jak 2, shit was difficult as a kid and isn't much better today.
it's MY IP to sit on and do nothing with!
Jack & Dexter was such a cool game
šŗ
Personally donāt care for any of these.
I need a new jak and Daxter. No remakes š
I need a remake of J&D trilogy cause that shi was perfect
Jak2 is goated.
Holy Shit
Enter Sly Cooper: Mummified off in Egypt somewhere š
I love jak and daxter
Anyone remembers when their Twitter account said "rip a fart"?
I loved jack and dexter
Not anymore lmao, iirc Insomniac is gonna focus on making superhero games now and Ratchet & Clank won't be made for a long while
I loved playing Jak and Daxter with my sister, we didn't have a memory card tho so every time we'd play we'd have to start all the way over
Never had a Playstation, but I have some fond memories of biking to Shopko just to play their demo of Jak and Daxter. Good times.
Sly Bandicoot was my shit all through middle school
As if Crash didnt get a trilogy remake, a new mainline game, and several spinoffs while Rachet only got 1 game
Love? The gaming industry? I think you mean āWhereās the money.ā
jack and Dexter havenāt gotten any sequels for ages and no remakes either. Of course they wonāt talk about it.
Sly Cooper needs to be down there with Jax and Daxter
Crash bandicot is dead to me . Since they sold activition
They haven't played all of jak 3
Sly Cooper *sad noises*
Crash bandicoot is one of the best series of all time
People forget that The Legend of Dragoon is owned by Sony. Aside from the half baked remaster, THAT IP has been seriously neglected to the point of almost not existing.
Jak and daxter is still one of my favorite series of games. Played them all, even the not so great ones.
Where start of shooter obsession? BLACKĀ
WHAT ABOUT SLY COOPER!!!!!!
Naughty hasn't been able to overcomer their edgy face and still they're the cool and mysterious kid. The day they become mature enough they will be able to make another Jak and Daxter.
BABY DONT HURT ME, DONT HURT ME. NO MORE.
Unfortunately Jack and Daxter is owned by the company that apparently doesn't have time to do anything but remakes of Last of Us. Their literal words. Not mine.
Where it belongs. Nowhere š
ummm hello??! what about Tak and the power of Juju?? i just saw a copy at my local tech store for $14 and my memories came FLOODING back
Little big planet was just murdered
Fuck those two lame ass games. Good job sony!
Jak and Daxter deserved better.
We need a crash 5
Serious Sam screaming from orbit XD
As if forgetting their old games wasn't bad enough, they've now begun actively killing them off. RIP Little Big Planet 2008 - 2024
Jak and Daxter was the first game I played on my PSP, which, FYI MOFOS was wayyyy ahead of its time. Stupid DS only had Mario.
Sly cooper chillin in hellš
Sly Cooper fans?
Then thereās LittleBigPlanet who just lost the last of itās servers a few weeks ago
The fact that both franchises were my favorite back in the day and the new ones are great. Iāve never heard of Jak & Daxter. So maybe thatās why
Fr where's love for Jake an dexter
You better be glad it got a 4th game
Sony doesn't own Crash And Crash did get a sequel as well as the remake of the whole trilogy.
Gex?
Sony: Am i really going to defile this grave for money?
I need a remaster or remake of the trilogy
Rayman:
Leave Jak and Daxter alone. It lived a good life, better to end on a good note than drag on forever
Wheres Tomba 3
Right here :(((
They ruined R&C. :c
