    On PSP. I'm a little annoyed but it's better than nothing. Still holding out for that PS3 game though.

    Well it's on the Playstation blog and ign are doing a preview apparently. I know what you mean though I'm not sure what to believe either. If this is a trick it is a cruel, cruel one.

    Well, I GUESS there are far better and more important things they could April Fool's someone with.  Jak isn't honestly that important anyways...to me at least.

    We can all have our opinions on the games, personally I loved all three main ones and have been looking forward to a new one for years. Jak and Daxter was a massive seller seems like an odd day to release info but I think it is probably legit. (Heres the quote for later if I'm found a fool)

    Developed by the people who made Secret Agent Clank and Size Matters? Not Ready at Dawn? I'm officially un-sold faster than I was sold. Oh well.

    A PS3 installment is likely to be developed by Naughty Dog. This is a PSP title that is being ported to the PS2 as well. That's why it is on the PS2.

    The announcement was originally on the Playstation blog. currently ign, kotaku, joystiq and more have held stories on it.
    Therefore it is either a conspiracy, a prank from sony and high impact themselves or it's legit.

    This has to be fake, why would they post pictures of the PSP version? Why wouldn't this be on the PS3?

    Because it's a PSP game. Porting a PSP game to the PS3 would be a huge task. Porting it to PS2 would be easy.

    I know of all places, but Wikipedia is reporting it to be as a joke, but I definitely wouldn't take their word. I'm still going with fake.

    I'm still gonna say it's true. A PSP Jak game seems very believable. Although I wouldn't bet on it.

    lol This really isn't a joke! If you follow the link in my last post it explains the game a bit more. Naughty Dog are working closely with High Impact to create a PSP game. The fact that Naughty Dog are playing a close role to it shows that they still have interest in creating more games, they would be for the PS3. Heck Sony have even issued a statement after the announcement to say that is definitely true.

    I think it's an April Fool's, but in any case I wouldn't probably get it. I am not looking forward to a sequel, Jak 3 ended the series just right, there is no need to stretch the franchise.

    I'm hoping for it to be true as well, but I think the fact they wouldn't make a PS3 version makes it rather suspicious. I hope I'm wrong, and maybe they are just planning a full-fledged new game for the PS3.

    Well Naughty Dog have said in the past that they would like to return to Jak but of course right now Uncharted 2 is on the cards. Perhaps their next game could be a PS3 Jak.

    It's real, so everyone shut up about it being a joke.

    And I'm all for more quality PSP games. Daxter was good. The guys who are developing the game made Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters, which was also good. Therefore, by default, this game will be good.
