I think you're nutty if you can go back to BL1 post-BL2. Ignoring the divisive writing in BL3, the gameplay has got serious legs compared to the original.

I tried to go back to BL1 for probably the second time post-BL2 and I always get up to some ways into the second area before getting bored. BL2, on the other hand, I have a healthy 150+ hours over a single string of NG+ playthroughs.

Ratchet & Clank is a good answer. As much as I adore Dr. Nefarious as a villain, the gameplay felt slightly undercooked in Up Your Arsenal and the series, frankly, wouldn't recover until A Crack In Time (my favorite; have my copy signed by James Arnold Taylor whoop whoop).

Same with Uncharted. 2 vastly improved upon every aspect, but the original's setting has a solid presence that overshadows the minor retread that was Uncharted 3.

Same also with Sly Cooper, as far as I remember.

I'm a staunch defender of the original Jak & Daxter, so it doesn't apply there.

Nonetheless, lots of Sony properties!
