    Jak & Daxter

    Jak & Daxter is a platformer where you play as the roll of Jak. Jak & Daxter feels alot like Naughty Dog's previous series Crash Bandicoot (PS1). It has the same basic controls, square is punch (it was spin in crash), O which is spinning kick in this game (running slide in crash). And graphically Jak has a similar very bright colour scheme that Crash had. However Jak is different in some ways then Crash, the camera in Jak can be controled by the player, the graphics are better and there's a better story in Jak & Daxter. There are things that need to be improved in Jak & Daxter, for example, hitting an enemy with a punch or kick can sometimes go undected and you'll wind up losing one of your 3 health bars. If your a PS2 owner or a PS3 owner that missed the chance to play Jak & Daxter when it was first released then I highly recomend getting this game as it's fun and enjoyable.

It wasn't long before gamers got their answer in the form of Jak & Daxter: The Precursor Legacy, which has become arguably one of the console's major selling points. And why not? Jak & Daxter offers up a lot of action, ...

      Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy (Platinum)(PlayStation 2) by centurioncajun on April 19, 2009

      Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy was one of the earlier break out hits for Sony's Playstation 2 platform. Released in December 2001 it quickly became one of the first million sellers. Featuring the first fully 3D open world platforming world it quickly stood out from the pack. This combined with the great voice work and solid gameplay quickly laid the groundwork for one of Sony's flagship franchises.While later games in the series would take on a much darker tone this first Jak adventure is ...
