 Jak and Daxter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jak and Daxter successfully defeat Errol, and it is implied by the precursors that Jak is the Mar that would build Haven City and preserve an entire generation of people.
Jak, Daxter, Keira, and Samos travel through a time rift 400 years into the future to Haven City, a large maze like city founded by the great warrior Mar, and Jak is captured and sent to prison by the Baron's right hand man, Erol and members of the evil Baron Praxis's Krimzon Guard.
The Jak and Daxter series received heavy attention from its first announcement, largely due to its predecessor, the Crash Bandicoot series of games (evidence of the ties between the two games is vast, including a 'spin' move and many similar objects shared between the two series).

Jak and Daxter is a massive quest that is highly entertaining throughout.
One superb thing about the design Jak and Daxter is that while the game is basically non-linear, completing certain tasks unlock other areas so you are softly pushed through the game while never feeling you’re on rails, giving the game a good flow and keeping a sense of exploration and adventure throughout.
The lineage of Jak and Daxter and its extensive gestation is at this point well-known.

 Jak And Daxter Preview
Daxter is a clown and a showoff, there to Moonwalk and do the Hustle during victorious moments such as the discovery of a needed orb, and again to chide the player when, as Jak, fails to survive.
During the faster maneuvers, Daxter’s scrawny body will stretch as his friend’s speed will pull his front paws and head away from his hindquarters, which left hovering in the air, must snap back like an elastic band in order to catch up to the action.
From what I played today, Daxter’s role is mainly that of a scene-stealer than that of a game character and clearly Naughty Dog, the game’s creators are steering clear and away from a Banjo-Kazooie imitator.

 Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy Review for PlayStation 2 - Gaming Age
Jak, Daxter and the various baddies populating the levels are constructed of a good amount of nicely shaded polygons, but textures are used pretty sparingly.
Visually, Jak and Daxter runs at a nearly perfect 60 fps framerate with the only exception being a few split second hitches when several special effects are going off, or when new areas need to be loaded into memory.
Daxter is not playable in any way, and remains hanging around Jak's neck or standing on his shoulder, throughout most of the game.

 Daxter Hands-On > Preview
The game takes place shortly before the events of Jak II, and Daxter is doing everything he can to try and find his imprisoned buddy, but an infestation of metalbugs prompts Daxter to become an exterminator, in the meantime looking for clues as to Jak's whereabouts.
Let's face it, Jak doesn't bring much to the personality pie of the Jak and Daxter games.
Daxter's primary weapon is a flyswatter that he can use to combo attack enemies (bugs, natch), and he also weilds a can of bugspray that can be used for variousthings, primarily to stun the critters so Daxter can whack 'em.

Daxter on the other hand, takes cliché to a whole new level.

Jak also has a first person camera that you are able to access by holding down a button.

Jak and Daxter seems shorter than several platformers I have played in the past, but I am guessing it is due to the lack of repetitive tasks that need to be performed.
Jak and Daxter is a solid platform game on many levels, and along with Conker, the best that last year had to offer.
Overall, I enjoyed Jak and Daxter, and I even found Daxter to be a great character.

The Jak and Daxter series received heavy attention from its first announcement, largely due to its predecessor, the Crash Bandicoot series of games (evidence of the ties between the two games is vast, including a 'spin' move and many similar objects shared between the two series).
After a short battle, Daxter falls into a pit of Dark Eco and becomes an orange Ottsel, a fictional animal resembling a combination of an otter and a weasel(Daxter's continous dirty jokes and chat-up lines to Keira are probably a private joke - real cross-breeds are sterile).
Another spinoff game has been announced, Daxter, for the PlayStation Portable, starring Daxter only.

 Gamasutra - Features - "Postmortem: Naughty Dog's Jak and Daxter: the Precurser Legacy" [07.10.02]
For Jak and Daxter, one of our earliest desires was to immerse the player in a single, highly detailed world, as opposed to the discrete levels of Crash Bandicoot.
The world should be populated with highly animated characters that would give Jak tasks to complete, provide hints, reveal story elements, and add humor to the game.
We encountered more than a few major bumps in the road, and there were times when the project seemed like an insurmountable uphill battle, but we managed to create a game that we are quite proud of, and we learned several important lessons along the way.
