Hoping for Knack to become a franchise. If all was right in the world of gaming and Dave Halverson was still publishing, editing, writing for Die Hard Gamefan and / or Play Magazine then I think there can be little doubt that the Greatest Journalist, writer, publisher, in the history of video games I.e. Dave Halverson http://gamefanmag.com/features/gamefans-year-in-review andhttp://www.gamesetwatch.com/2009/02/column_game_mag_weaseling_dave.php would have given Knack the recognition it deserved by naming it his 2013 Game Of The Year or that he probably would have put it in the Top Five of 2013.
I think it sometimes takes today's shooter reared reviewers a couple of games to properly warm to a game let like Knack which can actually be quite harmful to those games in an uncalled for fashion. Knack is definitely an 85 to a 100 score game rather than the lowly 60 it gets from the cumulative buttheads at Metacritic, and there can be little doubt in my estimation that the Great Dave Halverson would have set the world right on that score.
So, here's hoping for Knack 2 and a new 8th Gen Gaming. Mag from Dave Halverson, Nick Rox, and Co. to keep the world of gaming journalism straight so that games likely Mark Cerrny's awe-inspiring Knack don't get short shifted by a cadre of game reviewers that think every game has to be a GTA, Gears Of War, or Call of Duty clone going forth into the 8th Gen.
