Yeah.  It's based on a manga series.  I think it's a graphic novel sort of thing?  And, it outsold Halo 4 in Japan.  

Does this game/manga deal with incest?

Not really.

The game has multiple paths/ending, of which that becomes an option.

That IP is more about the clash of what is acceptable and otaku culture.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

Defensive much?

I mean hype as in promotion. Its a game Sony made sure fans were aware of and it was their game of choice on Jimmy Fallon.

Knack showed PS4 was easy to develop for? They should have worked harder.

Ah but now you are changing the definition of what you wrote. The guy replied to your term "Hype", this is not the same as promotion as you well know,

hype

 
2. to create interest in by flamboyant or dramatic methods; promote or publicize showily: a promoter who knows how to hype a prizefight.

Sorry, I didn't read the rest of your post. I simply don't care enough.

It's been outselling it nearly every week in the UK. It's funny to see such a mediocre platformer outsell one of the most critically acclaimed games of the year simply because it's on a different console.


By being bundled very heavy? In Feb in Japan you get the game free.

You were talking about *people* being hyped. Dont try and twist it matey...You know the difference from trying to create hype and people being hyped, so dont be silly now eh.

I didnt read the rest of your post, because just like your signature, I know which camp you are sitting in, and why this dictates how you post.

Actually, it's outsold Mario every week since both of their releases.  In fact, if you look at the charts in the that OP, Knack moved up 6 spots in the charts, while Mario completely dropped off.  Which makes me wonder what the heck VGC is doing with their UK numbers, as they have Knack only outselling it for the first week.

Knack doesn't need a second game. Cerny needs to learn that linear 3D platforming died the day Super Mario 64 came out.

Lol, that can't be used as an excuse for everything.  Especially, when we have official numbers and charts to adjust to.
