Despite the success of massive success of Uncharted and The Last of Us, Naughty Dog would be well-served to return to Jak and Daxter.
The dual protagonist nature of some games have led to numerous dynamic duos in gaming. Here are some of the best ones.
The Prince and Farah
Few others:
- Booker and Elizabeth
- Joel and Ellie
- Jade and Pey'j
- Jak and Daxter
- Nate and Sully
- Master Chief and Cortona
- Gordon and Alyx
Fans who pine for the days of Naughty Dog’s Jak and Daxter are in for some good news, as the complete series is now playable on PS5 with trophy support. This isn’t just the trilogy either, as the PSP games and Jak X are also available, so hardcore Jak fans can now relive these great titles.
Underrated? J&D was one of the most popular IPs at the time, quite literally the face of the ps2 beside God of War
Would love to see a open world Jak 4 on the PS5, would be amazing, but I know ND said they'd never do it.
apparently there is a movie being made. I just cant get my head around what Sony is doing recently,
In regards to cancelling twisted metal game, when they push ahead with series 2 of the tv show, surely she show is meant to promote the game, where the real profits can be made.
Now we hear of a Jan and daxter film, (an old ps2 game) but NO new game to go with it,
mind boggles:

I wasn't aware that ND said they'd never do it...
I know they said it would difficult for them to go back to it after doing super high fidelity, gritty, realistic stuff like Last of Us but I didn't think they'd ruled it out completely.
They didn't say never, but was basically what they said. They actually tried making a new Jak, but what they were making was straying far from it's roots so they canned it. They're just in a different mindset when it comes to developing games compared to when they made Jak.
Seeing jak&d left in the past like that really makes me appreciate nintendo even more for atleast keeping mario, zelda, metroid, and others around while making em still feel fresh, Playstation should have another gem besides astroboy and ratchet&clank
i wouldnt call jack and daxter underrated.
its a beloved franchise that pretty much was one of the biggest games on the ps2 and psp
The WellPlayed team has come together to share which video games they’d like to see turned into a TV show.
I disagree. I think games like Ratchet and Clank fills that gap very well and Naughty Dog's strengths are with realistic action adventures
Jax and Daxter would be Great on PS5 along with R&C
Yeah i agree they should go back to making real games again, not Jak and Dexter specifically but something like that. ND really needs to have a Nintendo moment like BOTW and Odyssey and undergo some sort of evolution in the studio.
No more fake scripted barely a game kinda games.. you had your Uncharted games and the TLOU 2013 all that was awesome and epic and i was crazy for those games but now i would love them to move on cause they have have some mad talent there. They could totally make a deep, engaging GAMEPLAY focused game and rival some of the greats out there.
Jack and Daxter is a side of the industry that needs to come back. I gotta be honest, I'm kinda done with all this push for realistic graphics.
I would love to see it come back. Heck, I actually wouldn't even mind if Bluepoint were to make a SotC-style remake of the first game.
