Secret Agent Clank
A game focused mainly on Clank feels weird at first. Sure, it worked with Daxter, but Daxter’s two year trouble before Jak 2 is something that fans would still have some memory of. Secret Agent Clank was a recurring bit in Up Your Arsenal that, while funny, pretty much began and ended at that fun Hollywood level. An entire game built on a tiny robot pretending to be James Bond doesn’t seem like it’d go far, right?
That more or less turns out to be the case. While Clank isn’t a bad character to focus on, there’s a reason why he’s relegated to short bursts (aside from his size, of course). The gadgets are pretty good, and the sneaking works, but eventually that wears down as you have to perform stealth hit after stealth hit. Sorry, Clank, you’re funny, but not enough to carry 90% of a game.
