According to easily debunked apocrypha the change was due to unfortunate connotations with the word cooper in the UK markets.

Thoughts like: "The music on 4-3 sounds so familiar", "It really would be weird for someone to play this and see luigi everywhere if they didn't know about the year of luigi", or "Why is the cat suit here and the best thing you can wear if this is otherwise a very clean and corporate mario game?"

It didn't occur to me until after I put it together it looks like a gummy shark.

Did you try it?

The first Jak and Daxter game is probably one of my favorite collectathons ever and I'd argue it's easily a top 3 contender.

I'm not terribly familiar with the franchise so I can't say. I'm not really sure it ever had a strict mainline outside of having numbered titles.

I need to go make some corrections then. This is the last time I trust a youtube essayist to know the difference.

I had always imagined that SH fans were being a bit over the top when they talked about the later entries not really being the same...

Nice!

That's good :3

I never understood the hate for fan sounds. I find it at worst cozy and otherwise drowned out by game audio.

To each their own.

I might have been thinking of the dreamcast fan mod that doesn't give sufficient airflow, but I tend to avoid those mods regardless.

Doesn't the hawk tua fan mod cause overheating because the ps2 doesn't provide enough voltage to properly drive the fan?

Nobody has suggested Sly Cooper yet, the whole trilogy is pretty fun. Radiata Stories is also good if you like rpgs with action combat.

Aside from a few errors like the first boss and "this guy are sick" I don't remember seeing anything egregious.

I highly recommend getting a dualshock 3 or other ps3 controller. The drivers are a bit of a pain to set up for the first time, but analogue buttons are nice to have for the times they come up in ps2 games.

To be very fair to sitting ducks, the show looks like that.

It admittedly sticks in my head primarily for the hilarious clash between the American box art and how the game looks. Otherwise, it's a pretty fun puzzler where you build chambers of treasure and try to plan ahead for how blocks will fall once the treasure blocks are cleared.
