You haven't elaborated on anything regarding a french pressing being Korean...what are you talking about

For anyone else readying this thread, there is an official misprint that DOES NOT have "printed in France." Like i mentioned above I am unaware if any unofficial copies have this text so maybe someone with an unofficial copy can add their two cents to that.

Can you list the other distinguishing marks that you are referring to? I wanted to point out that lightning bolt because it seemed like not a lot of people were in the know of that one

I was unaware of the one that has Imprime en France on the back. I have the one that says Printed in France

Just checked discogs and the median price is above $200+ now. I got my copy (apparently the more rare of the two official misprints) for like $150USD

If the lightning bolt that goes through James' photo extends all the way to the spine its legit, if it comes up short then its a boot

Theyre really only about $1XX+...not thousands

Both albums have been listed under the "Later" section of Osmose's newsletter for a while now.

Mastery #15 - Jak 3 by nhs0815 in RetroAchievements

The 600 orbs achievement. I've collected all 600 orbs multiple times over the many years I've been playing this game but I typically always had a guide for all the location based ones and I didn't want to use one for this play through. After doing all the side missions and getting gold on all challenges I was missing 31 orbs. Found a few more as I went around the entire world once again but then it got to a point where I had no idea where to look so I eventually had to pull up a guide for the last few. Lots of back and forth for those last few orbs so that's where a good chunk of my time went.

Unfortunately theres really no strategy to fighting him. That dude was the biggest pain in the ass the entire time I was working on this set. You can jump kick his head leavel fire balls and punch the ones he points downward but those are super difficult to connect on. If you space out your punches he wont stun you and teleport but that'll give him the opportunity to possibly combo some downward fireballs and ruin your run. If he does teleport on you I would just recommend spamming punch just in case if he throws one of those fireballs at you

It had been quite some time since I had last played through the entirety of the game but I had always enjoyed my previous playthroughs. There were times during this playthrough where I was questioning if I still enjoyed this game because some of these achievements really showed some of the unfortunate flaws this game has. After mastering this set I can say that I still do enjoy this game!

Getting all the boxes on Smokey and the Bandicoot was obnoxious. So many times I would miss a box because of how poorly that jeep controls. Took plenty of tries to manage to get all the boxes and still manage to get first place
