According to a former Naughty Dog developer, Kingdom Hearts played a role in the studio’s development of its beloved action-adventure sequel Jak 2.Josh Scherr worked for over 21 years at Naughty Dog, with the first 13 spent as the cinematic animation lead on gems like Jak and Daxter, Jak 2, and Jak 3. Jak 2 shipped in 2003, and it featured many firsts for the iconic series – Dark Jak, Haven City, and cutscenes with unique character models. According to Scherr, though, it’s actually another smash-hit title from many gamers’ childhoods that inspired this shift to more high-resolution models in Jak 2.True story: on J&D, we used the same character models for both gameplay & cutscenes (Daxter didn’t have fully articulated fingers). For J2, we saw early screenshots of Kingdom Hearts, went “oh shit,” & made high-res models for cutscenes. And still did it without visible loading! https://t.co/pN42dfueoMOctober 14, 2024Speaking in a recent post on the matter, Scher…

What to do with the Rings

Where to get the Rings

The Silent Hill 2 Remake Copper and Lead rings in the Hospital aren’t too difficult to find, but working out where to use them is harder, as James’ claim that he knows exactly where they go is a tricky thing to swallow considering the dream-like, quasi-symbolic logic that so many of the Silent Hill 2 Remake puzzles operate under. In fact, you need to bring them back up to the second floor of the hospital to proceed, unlocking the Lady of the Door with them. If you want a primer on the exact process, and where to find the Copper Ring and Lead Ring in Silent Hill 2, we’ll explain below.What to do with the Rings in the Silent Hill 2 Remake Hospital More Silent Hill 2 guidesSilent Hill 2 Remake Director’s Office hand

Final Fantasy 14’s Naoki ‘Yoshi-P’ Yoshida has once again put some distance between the MMO and the long-rumored Final Fantasy 9 remake. In a new interview, he reiterates that the MMO serves as a Final Fantasy theme park and that FF9’s inclusion is no different from other series entries.Earlier this year, Yoshida turned some heads during a PAX East panel when he revealed that Final Fantays 14’s Dawntrail expansion would come with a few FF9-related goodies like minions and a popular summon turned into a mount. “You may have noticed a lot of Final Fantasy 9 references here,” he said on stage with a smirk, “but the reason is a secret.”Final Fantasy 14 featuring nods to other games in the series isn’t anything new, though the swirling rumors around Final Fantasy 9 getting a remake got people’s attention. That, and comments about two unannounced games we’d hear about “soon.” As such, Yoshi-P clarified in a later Live Letter stream that FF14 dev Creative Unit 3 isn’t remaking the beloved JRP…
