took a little longer to deliver than i expected, but it got to me in pristine condition. overall a "worth-it" purchase.
And with the weapons, earning secrets made them more powerful. I will look forward to Jak on PS3 The game had helpful hints on how to control Jak and the moves are pretty standard --- jump, swing on pole, etc. I liked the city challenges and the fact that there was always some way to earn needed gems by killing random enemies. Driving through the wasteland is very realistic and functional. At first I easily got into the flow of the game.
Like in the car races, I learned to take the lead early, then outpace all the others steadily. Overall it was fun.
I found myself dying less and less because I figured out each mission had certain 'snags' that could be overcome if I learned to look out for them. It came in handy sometimes.
I finished in about 2 weeks. Also there was a hoverboard, like a skateboard which I got used to controlling after training.
I liked the jumping of the cars. Earning secrets was a fun twist.
The cars we're probably my favorite part. A definite classic.
If you liked the adventure of the first Jak and Daxter as I did, you probably won't like this game much. It gets really old after a while. Defeat some bad guys here and there. Now, go across the city and meet this other guy. Race over here, pick that up, bring it back before the time runs out. I was shocked with the complexity of Jak 2. I loved the original Jak and Daxter. Jak 3 is better than Jak 2, but it combines some elements of the second in the series with the adventure in the first.
I haven't completed the game yet because, quite frankly, I got bored with it. I hated it even. Race someone else. You can only complete the same mission so many times (with different details, but ultimately, it's the same mission) before tiring of it.
Complete another racing mission. He sends you on a racing mission. The problem is that you are sent running back and forth across this city, over and over, solving the same types of puzzles over and over again. Finish that, return to the place you were before.
If you like racing the clock to get things done, but minimal adventure, this game is for you.
The storyline is great and I am impressed how Naughty Dog kept the plot interesting by having the player guess who the Precursors are and who Mar is. When I purchased this game from Amazon, I was stoked to play this game as soon as I had received it. I like how the game involves more scenic variety as opposed to the Jak 2 setting in the dark and ominous Haven City. The gameply is basically the same as the previous games but I still recommend this game to those who love action and adventure.
I have young daughters who love Jak and Daxter but I don't like the language. I have the same feelings about this game as I had about Jak 2. Great game but the language turned me off. As far as the game goes, it is better than Jak 2.
