	JakDaxter
		The lineage of Jak and Daxter and its extensive gestation is at this point well-known.
		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.
		Jak and Daxter is a massive quest that is highly entertaining throughout.

	GamingWorld X - Jak II Review
		Jak II actually takes the concept of your typical “platform” game and attempts to meld it with nearly every other genre under the sun.
		Jak’s busted out of jail by Daxter and then, in order to fulfill his lust for revenge, starts taking on jobs from various members of the underground movement to overthrow the Baron.
		Jak’s new look is drastically improved — even with that goofy goatee — and the characters you meet along the way are convincing and well thought out.

	IGN: Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy Review
		In contrast, the world in Jak and Daxter is completely tied together and has almost a living feel to it because what you do actually changes things in the world and these changes don't just revert back to normal when you leave one area and return to it later.
		The animation of Jak and Daxter as they move through the world and perform their various jumps, twirls and special attacks together is about as fluid as you're ever going to see in a videogame.
		Jak and Daxter is a true 3D platform/adventure masterpiece and one of the top games ever released in the genre, easily on par with some of the all time greats released by the likes of Nintendo and Rare.

	GamingWorld X - Jak 2 Preview
		There are 16 total areas to explore in Jak 2, and the city acts as an overland map of sorts, revealing passageways and different routes to one of the areas waiting to be explored.
		When Jak was imprisoned by Baron Praxis, he was exposed to all kinds of medical experiments, most of which involved dark eco (remember, the foul stuff that turned Daxter into that...thing?) As a result, Jak is no longer just a pre-teen-looking kid.
		Jak and Daxter did what it did in 2001, which was basically give us a very polished play of the current platform game standard.

	Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy spawned two sequels, Jak II and Jak 3, and two spinoffs, Jak X and Daxter.
		Jak channels the Light Eco through his body, and beams the energy towards the robot, disabling it and ruining Gol's and Maia's plans.

	Jak II - GameCritics.com
		Jak has a wealth of moves at his disposal, most of which you'd expect from a platformer; things like acrobatic jumping, a few melee maneuvers, ledge grabbing and the like.
		Jak II assimilates the trigger-happy attitude well enough, but if I wanted to run around and shoot things, Ratchet and Clank (and its outstanding sequel Going Commando) both do the same thing, and do it much better.
		Jak II does have a few high points like the Crash Bandicoot "being chased by something dangerous and running towards the player" tribute level, and the graphics and draw distance are as sharp as ever, but the experience as a whole never solidified the way a great game's should.

	First Impressions: Jak and Daxter (PS2) - Gaming Age
		Visually, Jak and Daxter runs at a nearly perfect 60 fps with the only exception being a few split second hitches when several special effects decorate the screen.
		Jak, Daxter and the various baddies populating the levels are constructed of a good amount of nicely shaded polygons, although textures are used pretty sparingly.
		Daxter is always hanging around Jak's neck or standing on his shoulder, but you primarily play as Jak.

		It is up to Jak to brave the dangers of the world in an attempt to see his wisecracking buddy returned to his human form.
		Jak can jump, kick spin (okay, this was a Crash rip-off), punch, crouch, roll, dive attack, aerial attack and pull of a couple of different uppercut punches.
		Jak also has a first person camera that you are able to access by holding down a button.

	Jak and Daxter
		Jak and Daxter’s quest is to seek the one person that holds the key to transforming Daxter back to his human-like form.
		There are a variety of enemies to challenge Jak in the different lands like giant fish and sharks that are lurking in the ocean waiting for a meal, huge serpents pop out of the sand, and nasty snakes jump out of the trees trying to take a bite of ya.
		Jak doesn’t say much, he is more of a stong and silent type but Daxter falls completely on the other side of the spectrum.

	Gamasutra - Features - "Postmortem: Naughty Dog's Jak and Daxter: the Precurser Legacy" [07.10.02]
		From the initial stages of Jak and Daxter, we looked at the various camera schemes used in other games and came to the depressing conclusion that all existing camera schemes had serious issues.
		Jak can jump through trees and bushes, duck under archways, run between scaffolding, scale down cliffs, and hide behind rocks, all with the camera unobtrusively keeping the action in view.
		Players can use the second joystick to maneuver the camera(rotating the camera or moving it closer to or farther from Jak), but we were concerned that some people may not want to manipulate the camera, and others, such as children, may not have the required sophistication or coordination.

	Into Liquid Sky - Game Reviews
		The premise is simple: Jak and Daxter must travel across the world, through various villages and lands to find a magician who will turn Daxter, who has been turned into a woodland creature by Dark Eco, back to normal.
		With relatively no loading times (there is a pause before cut-scenes), Jak and Daxter can run from the main village to exploration areas seamlessly.
		Daxter's quips ad comments are fun to listen to and even sometimes useful.

	Jak & Daxter 2! Yayage! - TotalVideoGames.Com Forums
		Jak is put in prison and experimented on and his attitude reflects this.
		Jak II's engine is greatly improved from the one in Jak And Daxter.
		Having said that, Jak II is still on PlayStation 2, rather than new hardware, so you certainly won't see the 100x performance leap you saw from Crash 3 to the original Jak And Daxter.

	Jak And Daxter Preview
		Energetic and aggressive, Jak jumps, punches, and head-drills his way through mountain paths and coastlines, smashing open treasure boxes and knocking down fruit from overhanging trees, all to uncover green, floating orbs to feed his fuel-burning trek across a vibrant cartoon world.
		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.
		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.

	[No title]
		But this hero refused to be forgotten...Jak and his faithful companion Daxter are exiled to the unforgiving Wasteland, where survival of the fittest is the law of the land.
		Jak's exciting trilogy comes to a close, leading at last to revelations about the mythycal warrior Mar, secrets to Jak's enigmatic past, and ultimately to the shocking revelation of who the Precursors really are.
		Daxter, now on his own in an unfamiliar place, quickly realizes that being small and furry won’t help his chances of survival.

		Jak has been in prison for 2 years, tortured and infused with dark powers.
		Where the first Jak and Daxter was about bright, cheery bouncing to gather up objects, the second Jak has an older, wiser, more cynical guy.
		While the first Jak and Daxter was an "E for Everyone" game that was more of a Super Mario game, this one is darker and more serious.

		Jak and Daxter's one weakness is its music, but even though the music is not great, the fact that is underplayed enables you to concentrate more on the other, better aspects of the game.
		Jak & Daxter has been taken very seriously by Naughty Dog, yet it is one of the most fun, entertaining and humourous games I have ever played.
		Jak and Daxter has a very engrossing story, wonderful characters and the audio and visual side to it is stunning.

	Gamasutra - Features - "Postmortem: Naughty Dog's Jak and Daxter: the Precurser Legacy" [07.10.02]
		With more than a little trepidation, we decided instead to say good-bye to the bandicoot and embark on developing an epic adventure we hoped would be worthy of the expectations of the next generation of hardware.
		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.
		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.

		Daxter gets a promotion this time around and is more than just a sidekick, and it's his small size and agility that is needed for some critical jobs that Jak can't do.
		Jak's character continues to expand, and this time he's got some awesome upgradeable weapons and armor that really come in handy during the intense battles.

		Daxter as the sidekick does sometimes grate on your nerves in typical sidekick fashion, but that will more likely encourage you to like Jak a bit more for putting up with him.

	"JAK AND DAXTER"/ a game review from Christian Spotlight
		Beginning with a slightly uninteresting plot in typical Disney style you are handed control of the agile Jak and his sidekick pal, Daxter.
		Proving that you don't need to sink to violence and immorality in order to entertain people, "Jak and Daxter" is highly suitable for any age group, though younger gamers may be frustrated by its challenging difficulty setting.
		Jak has the ability to fight his way out of a problem, combat is never directed against human opponents, and always appears very inoffensive -- this is a blood, foul language, and sexual immorality free game, yet is undeniably excellent fun throughout.

		As the game begins Jak is captured by the evil Baron Praxis and subjected to all sorts of torturous tests and experiments in the two years it takes for Daxter to find and rescue him--the happy-go-lucky adventurer from the first game has been replaced by a mean and moody fugitive out for revenge.
		Daxter hasn't changed with his hilarious comments.Maybe not as friendly but a really fantastic game!!!Not as good as jak3 but utterly remarkable.Its a huge city too so expect many challenges.
		I was a great fan of Jak and Daxter the precursor legacy and when i heard about Jak 2 i was really excited!In Haven city Jak can do many things.

	Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy (ps2: 2001): Reviews
		Jak and Daxter brings back memories of the fun of Crash without killing the character through repetition.
		Beyond that, however, Jak and Daxter is an excellent example of a 3D platformer.
		This flavor is ultimately what sets Jak And Daxter apart from a lot of the other platform games out there.

		Needless to say, Jak eventually stumbles upon a larger conspiracy to take over the world and ends up fighting to save his more than just his furry friend.
		Jak & Daxter takes place in a huge 3D world complete with a variety of areas, such as a tropical jungle, snowy mountain top, volcanic lava bed, and more.
		Last is the Yellow Eco, which will give Jak the power to hurl powerful balls of energy at enemies and allow him to smash his way through some tough spots.
