"Makes you feel like batman."

That Eroico joke was pretty good, and the reward for death is also pretty good.

It's not a "Masterpiece"... It's a MASTAHPEECE!

Man I’ve always loved knack and I’m so glad to see someone pointing out all the things I’ve loved about it, while also pointing out the actual flaws

0:00 I came here for entertainment, not learning

I remember much younger and this is one of the first games I got. I was so young at the time I thought this game was a complete masterpiece, and its oddly enough one of the things that made me start gaming a lot more. Nowadays I definitely see all its flaws and how bad the storyline was, but it is still pretty fun to replay. Game is not good, but I partially owe it credit for getting me into games a lot, so I can't really knock it to hard.

Me and my bro just beat it earlier today since it was free last month on Playstation. I gotta say I honestly really enjoyed it. Deciding to put it on Hard Mode during the 1st playthrough probably wasn't the best idea but we managed. I'm really thinking about buying Knack 2 now lol

"Little Knack"
Punch out 2 Confirmed

Doesn't seem as bad as I expected based on what I heard, but being bad to replay is a big glaring flaw especially when The Wonderful 101 came out the same year with better execution of so many of the nicer stuff here (it is nice though) and Crash Bandicoot had decent replay value as well.

Did I ever tell you about the time my wife died

[ScottJoC]

I always liked knack, unironically. Most people didn't even give it a chance

Of course Knack doesn't suck! It's the greatest thing ever made! 10/5

[nolestrono]

I got Knack as a launch game with the PS4 and I finished it the next morning, and I enjoyed it the whole time.

[pantaloonlast]

I completely agree and i loved this game. I'm liking Knack 2 more, but the first is still really good.

How good of a score is "Knack 2 over Super Mario Bros. 2?"

[williamdrover]

10/5 it has a little something for everyone

"...every battle felt the same. That is was a mindless slog beating up *the same enemies* over and over."
...And Doom gets a free pass on few enemy types?
EDIT: Clarification in the replies. It's also important to note that I actually haven't played either.

Gamechamp : knack one of the greatest gaming accomplishments of man kind

Me: damn straight
