Really miss this guy in the in the medium prominently. Crash 2, Jak 2 and 3 are three of my favorite games of all time.

Great video, and an amazing artifact of this moment in the biz. This feels like a Ph.D thesis justifying on a granular level every reason why jak 2 was like That

Funny enough Jak 1 sold better than Wrath Of Cortex on PS2, so there is at least that :P
And nowadays we can have again platformers thanks to the rise of retro style games.

I dont want to sound like a dick or anything but the girls that use to play games all the time back in the older consoles were tomboys.
Now the girls that play games these days are a whole mix.
Girls in general care too much of graphics without knowing, they rather play gta5 over 4 san andreas, or 3.
Keeping in mind that San Andreas, Vice city were undoubtly the best or better than gta 4 and 5 in so many ways by the average male gamer.
Another thing that is really basic are cosmetics, if it werent for cosmetics, in-game purchases video games will not sell to females as much also.
