The ability of Titan Suit to throw blocks is used all of once or twice in the entire game.game.
** To many people, despite its large presence in advertising, Dark Jak falls under this as not even the game's narrative makes a big deal out of Jak having a SuperpoweredEvilSide outside of fueling Jak's vendetta against Praxis, and its gameplay doesn't really bring a lot to the table outside of crowd-control, [[BoringButPractical which is something the Scatter Gun and Blaster does at a more consistent level]]. It doesn't help that you have to commit to the transformation until the Dark Eco gauge runs dry, making it a classic case of TooAwesomeToUse since it takes way too long to get a full charge, and misfiring a Dark Bomb or Dark Strike makes it waste sting all that much more. What's worse, the two most useful abilities of Dark Jak, invincibility and Dark Giant, are inaccessible until Act 3, and there's a good chance you might not even have the gems required to unlock them until after you beat the final boss, reducing them to {{Bragging Rights Reward}}s unless you have Hero Mode unlocked.

* AmericansHateTingle: While the shift to a DarkerAndEdgier tone is a bit divisive in America and European communities (though this has mostly smoothed out over the years), the Japanese userbase ''hated'' this direction compared to the first game. It's telling that the sales over in Japan was pitiful, barely selling above 35,000 units, and that the third game never saw the light of day there until the trilogy got digitally remastered on [=PS4=].

** You can farm orbs by activating any timed orb challenge, jumping above the orb, and pausing the game. Choose restart, and the game will unpause and fail the mission. If done right, Jak should fall to the orb, collecting it just before the restart. For many, it is the only way to get "The Collectationator" trophy in the [=PS3=] version.

This was semi-patched in the [=PS4=] version, as the trick now requires frame-perfect precision in order for it to work.
