This review annoys me. A review shouldn't be a guide to how to play the game. It should talk about the pros and cons, what was done well and not so well, new features, etc. Telling me the different jumps that Jak can perform tells me absolutely nothing about whether or not I would buy it.
haven't played it forever. (my ps2 broke down. WAAAHHH) but i am saving my money to buy a new ps2, and i am DEFINITELY going to get this as my starter game because i only rented it when i was little. lets just say those were some of the best 5 days of my gaming experience.
All of you should like the page "Jak and Daxter Collection" on facebook! You get the newest updates and news. There is a possibility that Naughty Dog will make a Jak IV and even release a collection.
For me, this game has an infinite replay value. I've played this game all the way through around 40 times and spent endless hours on it and it never loses the fun.
I got to say, NaughtyDog did a FUCKING GREAT JOB WITH THIS GAME! Graphics are like PERFECT for a 2001 PS2 game. The storyline is perfect, and the levels are laid out perfectly. 4.5/5. The only complaint I have is there isn't enough bosses.
A vehicle with a propeler like a hovercraft!?It's a zoomer.ZOOMER!Z-O-O-M-E-R!!And Jak's friend turned into an Ottsel!O-T-T-S-E-L.Didn't you play the game before reviewing.Jeez!
This is a great game. I can't even think of anything wrong with it, other than a bad camera, but that won't happen a lot. My favorite parts of the game was when you got to drive a vehicle, not that stupid Flut Flut. That thing was the worst fucking piece of shit in the game. The Jak and Daxter series is what Naughty Dog should have continued on to next gen consoles, not Crash.
For God's sakes!!! Daxter is an OTTSEL!!!!!! Not a weasel, not a muskrat, AN OTTSEL!!! Jesus, hasn't this guy played the game??? Nobody calls him a ottsel and it's freaking annoying!!!
Jak and Daxter was the first game I've ever owned for my ps2. Before that, it was Crash Bandicoot for the ps1. And for the ps3, of course Uncharted 2...I played Uncharted 1 after beating Uncharted 2 because I only had one choice of a game to get for my ps3 and my mind was locked on playing Uncharted 2 lol. All in all, I think Naughty Dog is an awesome company that evolves gaming as we know it with each game they release for a new console. There's other great company's but ND stands out to me :)
jak and daxter was the first game I ever played, and I have not found a game that could equal it all in all, there are some games that are as good on there own merits, but jak and daxter is still the winner
I love the sense of exploration and adventure. Should Naughty Dog make a new Jak for PS3, they should return to their roots and make it in this world. Maybe make an alternate timeline where Jak never went to the future.
best of the series. Jak 2 and 3 were good, but not as good. Great plot and mithology. Jak 2 and 3 are sandbox gta-like games... Jak 1 is a great game, I played it over and over again, cause I wanted more! in my opinion it was a bit underrated game. I got it with my ps2, it made me the hardcore gamer I am today
I bought this like 2 years after it came out, along with Jak 2 and Jak 3. I kept getting frustrated with the first 2 games and eventually beat the first. But now I went back to play this game and I finally finished it! It's pretty awesome haha. But there were times where I wished I could just take out my Peacemaker and nuke all those mofo's :| Guess that's the downside to playing the series backwards haha
Just started playing this and it's easily the best platformer i've played on PS2 so far :) It's crazy how im kinda a fan of Naughty Dog but i never played these :O
Am I the only one that noticed some control issues with the game?The jump doesn't get read unless your at the peak of your jump and I've had times when the spin attack wasn't preformed.I am only at the second hub. You know, where you have to cross that lava land to get to.
if you ask me, there isn't enough stuff to collect. i have fully remembered where everything is at, all 101 power cells, and 2,000 precursor orbs. the story is fairly easy. still, love the game. second favorite series on the ps2.l
I effin love to play jak and daxtrer games the best game ever!!! I played their games for years!! And I hope naughty dog keeps this video game to go on 4eva!!!!!
when i look back i realized that Naughty dog has made all of my favorite games... i loved Crash Bandicoot games, loved jak series, and now for sure The Uncharted is my favorite game series yet keep it up Naughy Dog!... i wonder what they are going to do for the PS4... hmmm...
Yes i think you shoul get it. This is one of my favorite games ever, I bet you'll like it. It is challenging at some parts, there is boss battles through out the game but not many. If you just want to beat the final boss and ont really care about power cells, (You will need at least like 60 to complete it) You could probably beat th game in a day or 2. But If you try to get every power cell, Probably like 2 to 5 days.
jak and daxter: the precursor legacy is the best game in all of history! :) even girls, like me can love this game. it's so much fun to play! i'm obsessed. naughty dog did a great job with this game! i like TPL best.
you are right my friend!!! i am a girl, my name is edith, and since i had this game, my dad brought a playstation 1 and this game came with it........so not even my brother wanted to play it!! so i tried it and.....WOW!! i loved it!!!!!!!!! sometimes i think to myself "jak is cute" and you know i really wish he was true!! and man, wat can i say, i love the music!! it is like creative, and...i love the way it really goes with the game. i just am a jak and daxter fan!!!!! :)
@RxCxLx33 yea this game is really fun, but i wouldnt say its the best game ever, have you heard of a game called shadow of the colossus before? thats my favorite game ever, you will problaby like it since you like this one but i honestly have no idea if you will lol
same i completed jak and dexter leagacy 100% jak 2 about 50%+ and jak 3 60%+ and jak x 100% these are rough percentages dunnno for sure on jak 3 i had like 300 orbs to get
It makes me wanna play all my old PS2 games all over again, especially the Jak and Daxter series. I loved all of them except for the racing one.. i just dislike sport games and that was concidered action/sport but MORE sport than the action.
No no no, you got me all wrong. I do like sports, but when it comes to sports on video games, its just not that fun to me as playing it outside with my friends for real.
although when he did the review he probably thought that daxter was a muskrat because throughout the game, ottsel isnt mentioned once, but the red sage calls dax a muskrat.
i loved jak and daxter, and jak 2 was great, and jak 3 was even better, i hated the swamp level in jak and daxter, i would always get lost, and that just wasn't cool.
@halofanaticonthesofa Oh my god me too. I hated the swamp levels. But Jak and Daxter was so much fun. This video brought back so many memories. The game took FOREVER and there was so much stuff to do, but that's what made it fun. 10/10.
