WHAT I'M NOTICING IS THAT EVEN IF I HAVE THE CORRECT ORB COUNT OR ABOVE THE CORRECT ORB COUNT, SOME SECRETS STILL WON'T BE ACTIVITATED FOR ME. SINCE THIS IS REALLY THE FIRST TIME I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO GET ALL THE ORBS TO OBTAIN HERO MODE, I'VE BEEN ASSUMING THAT I SIMPLY HAVE MORE ORBS THAN THE GAME EXPECTS ME TO HAVE AT THAT POINT. I THINK THAT'S DIFFERENT FOR WHAT YOU'RE EXPERIENCING, THOUGH? I'LL HAVE TO GET FURTHER IN THE GAME TO SEE FOR SURE.
MOST OF THE GLITCHES I'M NOTICING IN THE HD COLLECTION IS A LOT OF TEXTURES CUTTING OUT. WHEN I TAKE THE HOVERCAR TO THE DRILL SITE HAVEN WILL MORE OFTEN THAN NOT BE BLACK NOTHINGNESS IN THE FARGROUND, AND THE SAME HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR A LOT OF THE CUTSCENES.
THAT'S NOT HOW IT WORKED FOR THE ORIGINAL THOUGH; IF YOU CAN REACH AN ORB, YOU CAN HAVE IT, EVEN IF IT'S NOT THE WAY THE GAME DESIGNERS INTENDED FOR YOU TO GET AT IT
IT'S DEFINITELY THE MOST FRUSTRATING GLITCH I'VE SEEN SO FAR
REALLY? HMM. IT MUST BE SOMETHING THAT MASS MEDIA DID IN THE PROCESS OF PORTING THE GAMES TO HD AND PS3 COMPATABILITY; I CAN'T IMAGINE HOW THAT WOULD WORK, BUT I'M SURE IT'S POSSIBLE WITH GAME CODE.
DAMN THOUGH, THAT'S SOME PRETTY SERIOUS ERROR THERE IF IT'S CAUSING PEOPLE TO NOT GET HERO MODE. THAT COULD SERIOUSLY SCREW PEOPLE OVER FOR TROPHIES.
NO IDEA ABOUT HOW MANY ORBS THE GAME EXPECTS YOU TO HAVE, HAHA
WE'VE NOTICED TEXTURE GLITCHES ALL OVER THE PLACE THOUGH - BOTH TIMES I'VE PLAYED THROUGH KOR'S BIG REVEAL, HIS FACE HAS BEEN BLACK. PAUSING DURING TPL ON A VIEW OF THE PRECURSOR ROBOT, WE COULD SEE THE POINT MAPS; THEY WEREN'T VISIBLE WHILE THE SCENE WAS MOVING, BUT QUITE APPARENT WHEN THE SCREEN WAS PAUSED.
AND MUSIC ISSUES - WHENEVER IT SWITCHES TRACKS, THE LAST NOTE "HANGS" AND I OFTEN GET SCENES WITH NO MUSIC. ONCE IT INVENTED ITS OWN MUSIC, I GUESS BY PICKING THE WRONG TRACK TO BE LOUDER THAN THE OTHERS - I'D NEVER HEARD IT BEFORE, THAT'S FOR SURE! I THINK THAT WAS DURING A RACE OR HOVERBOARD CHALLENGE.

SOME SECRETS ONLY UNLOCK AFTER YOU REACH A CERTAIN POINT IN THE GAME. FOR EXAMPLE, YOU COULD HAVE MORE THAN 200 ORBS BEFORE YOU FINISH THE GAME, BUT YOU STILL WON'T BE ABLE TO ACCESS HERO MODE BECAUSE YOU HAVEN'T FINISHED THE GAME. THIS HOLDS TRUE FOR ALL THE SCENE PLAYERS AND THE GUN COURSE NEW COURSES (I STILL HAVEN'T FIGURED OUT WHY THE GUN COURSE IS LIKE THIS... BUT THAT'S THE WAY IT IS.)
THIS HAPPENED IN THE ORIGINAL GAMES TOO, NOT JUST THE HD COLLECTION.
THAT MAKES SENSE FOR THE VULCAN FURY GUN COURSE AND ACT 2 SCENE PLAYERS, THANKS! DOESN'T EXPLAIN THE 202/NO HERO MODE SITUATION THOUGH, SINCE I ONLY GOT 202 ORBS AFTER BEATING KOR, AND I DIDN'T PLAY ANY MORE OF THE GAME BETWEEN THEN AND WHEN IT UNLOCKED.
DUNNO BOUT THIS. HAVEN'T BEEN COUNTING MY ORBS. BUT WHILE PLAYING JAK 2 THE GAME DID ACTUALLY SKIP OVER HALF OF ONE THE WATER SLUMS CUTSCENE WHEN YOU COLLECT PART OF MAR'S SEAL. AND I'M PRETTY SURE THERE WAS NO SKIPPING CUTSCENES ALLOWED IN JAK 2.
I HAVEN'T PLAYED JAK II ON THE HD COLLECTION YET SO I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE ORBS, BUT I JUST FINISHED TPL AND I GOT A BUNCH OF GLITCHES THERE AS WELL. THE MOST ANNOYING ONE OF ALL WAS DURING THE FIGHT AGAINST GOL & MAIA WHEN THE LAUNCH PAD MALFUNCTIONED. IT BASICALLY SHOT ME UP A TINY BIT OF THE WAY AND THREW ME RIGHT INTO THE BOMB. AND IT WASN'T JUST A ONE-TIME DEAL, EITHER, IT WAS CONSISTENT. EVENTUALLY I MANAGED TO JUMP TWICE BEFORE THE BOMB EXPLODED AND IT SHOT ME UP PROPERLY, BUT REALLY, IT WAS A SHITTY AND UNNECESSARY WAY OF DYING
( ... )
I DID HAVE THE MOST TROUBLE I'VE EVER HAD IN THE GOL & MAIA FIGHT, LIKE EVER. THAT'S ALWAYS BEEN A REAL EASY BOSS FIGHT FOR ME BUT WHEN I PLAYED THE HD COLLECTION I DIED LIKE 15 TIMES OR SOMETHING.
I'M NOT ESPECIALLY FAMILIAR WITH THE PS3 (BELONGS TO MY ROOMIE, NOT ME) BUT I'M PRETTY SURE ISSUING PATCHES IS A COMMON WAY TO FIX THIS SORT OF THING
MAN, I'M GLAD I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO DIED LIKE A BAJILLION TIMES DURING THAT FIGHT. NORMALLY I CAN BEAT THEM IN LIKE, ONE OR TWO TRIES, BUT THIS TIME 'ROUND I DIED SO OFTEN.
MY SISTER (WHO'S A HARDCORE GAMER AND ALL-ROUND COMPUTER NERD) SAYS THESE DAYS DEVELOPERS OFTEN RELEASE VERY GLITCHY GAMES BECAUSE THEY CAN GET RID OF MALFUNCTIONING STUFF AFTERWARDS. SO INSTEAD OF HEAVY TESTING THEY CHOOSE TO HAVE AN EARLIER RELEASE DATE AND LET THE PLAYERS FIGURE IT OUT. :|
I'M THINKING WE SHOULD PUT TOGETHER A LIST OF ALL THE GLITCHES WE'VE ENCOUNTERED THUS FAR AND SEND THAT OFF TO MASS MEDIA OR SOMETHING, SO AT LEAST THEY KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON. IT THERE'S ANYONE WHO KNOWS HOW THESE GAMES SHOULD FUNCTION IT'S US.
