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


... Tell that to Mario 3D World...

LMAO!  So true.  Still, there's nothing wrong with that kind of gameplay.  Hell, that's what GOW is, only a much larger emphasis on combat.

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.

Nope, go read my first post in this thread. I simply said the game had hype and that's accurate. I never said people were hyped for it. Furthermore, if you search "hype" in this thread you'll see I'm not the only person with that thought.

You misinterpreted the way I used the word “hype.” No need to argue about it.

Nintendo is kind of an acception. LOL They kind of always are. They are the masters of the platformer. Doesn't matter which dimension.

the gme didnt have hype no matter how much you try to spin that. Your distaste for Sony and their fans s obvious from you sig and post history. Just get over it

Okay, the game had no hype. Sony made sure nobody was aware of it. They didn't show it at big events, it wasn't pushed on TV, you won't see a demo of Knack on PS4 displays, and there was no Knack console bundle. Knack had ZERO hype.

I assure you my distaste for the fans is much bigger than the company. Especially when fans pretend Knack didn't have hype.

Putting a demo on a demo unit = hype now? Well fuck... gues that means King Kong was hyped to shit on the 360 because I played it on the demo at BB. It certainly wasn't pushed on TV. It was absent from the greatness awaits commercials and the perfect day commercial that Sony had running with KZ the only game commercial. And Knack had no official bundle in the US. Not sure about anywhere else since I don't lve there.

Now you're doing is downplaying the hype it did have. That's a far cry from, "the gme didnt have hype."

Frankly, I'm not sure why you people are even bothering me. I don't think any of us really give a shit about Knack. I'm simply surprised Knack didn't do better. Sometimes being a hyped launch title can make a game a hit.

I didnt know correcting the bullshit being spewed from you and calling them out as the lies they are was dowbplaying. No, what I'm doing is fact checking.



Seriously, who is ignorant enough to suggest putting a demo on a demo unit is considered hype? Holy fuck, must mean that Contrast had hype too
