Gamersmint: It looks like Naughty Dog is finally going to answer to all our prayers, and resurrect the classic duo from the PS2 era. A recent tweet from GT’s Geoff Keighley points us at an imminent announcement of a new Jak and Daxter game.
TSA writes: Despite lending their name to one of the best gaming trilogies, Jak & Daxter don’t enjoy the same all-star adoration as other PlayStation mascots. With the world still caught in an unfamiliar stasis, I found myself looking back, not forward, to those nostalgia-soaked days when 3D platformers were king. Back to when a pointy-eared lad and his Ottsel were PlayStation royalty.
Only if it's like Jak 1 as opposed to 2 and 3. Personally thought the first was the best
I think they're all incredible, but I like the chill island atmosphere of the first one the most.
Jak 1 is fun but 2 and 3 were way more fun for me, tbh.
How can you say no to a hoverboard that can also grind surfaces like a skateboard? haha
LRG:
Anyone who has purchased all four Jak & Daxter games (standard or CE) through us will be receiving this official Jak 4 commemorative case containing an exclusive theme for your PS4! We'll be contacting you if you're eligible.
No it’s a concept art cover that’s included as a bonus if you bought Jak 1-3 and Jak X racing from them
How? It’s literally a place that helps make physical versions of previously digital only titles. That or new productions of really old games. That’s weird?
I don't buy digital if there is any way to avoid it. I wanted that River City Girls game (because they're cute, and was craving some old school beat'em up action). So I waited 2 months and got the physical for 40 dollars. Being physical I can sell it back if I ever get buyers remorse, and the limited printing means I could probably get all 40 back in 10 or so years when ps4 nostalgia starts up for todays kids turned collecting adults.
Jeez guys it’s just a fun little extra they are doing if fans bought the collectors editions of Jak 1-3 and Jak X
It’s not a serious thing...
Wow the concept art looks good i can see NAUGHTY Dogs making be like guardians of the galaxy type of jak a d dexter plataformer accion adventure space open universe. It does sound cool. And i never thought i will be interested. But if is more realistic, mature and well done it will be amazing. But seem way to big of a project but if someone can do it right is Naughty Dogs.
It will be a next step from naughty dogs in the right direction. Uff i can lnly imagine a d i am not talking about the old games style of plays idk how they played but i am talking about a mix of uncharted the last of us style with more plataforming . It will be like a stars wars, guardian of the galaxy style theme with a good history to bach it up. With a good Online will be mindblowing.
This franchise as a fleshed out rpg with the same beloved story, quests/missions & platforming would be king.
Reboot Jak and Daxter instead of making Jak 4.
There was no conclusive ending to the franchise. There was so much more that could be done. Jak still had to face being Mar. I mean, there would be at least one more trip back in time because he had to build the city.
But I do agree that rebooting would be better. Simply because this is a different naughty dog to the one who created jak and daxter. Different people with different ideas. If they're gonna take on jak and daxter again, better to start from scratch and make it their own from the get go rather than trying to be new while being laden down by the originals.
Exactly. Also if Naughty Dog aren't involved, then just don't bother please. We don't want another Jak and Daxter The Lost Frontier, Spyro the Dragon after the PS1 days or any of the Halos after Bungie stopped making them to happen.
Yep, I agree. As much as I'd love another one of these games, it's probably best to just leave it as it is.
To be honest, the last Sly game was not developped by the original team and it was very good. If Naughty Dogs don't do it (they won't because they'll make The Last of Us 2), Sony could give it to a good developper.
I would agree that the creative minds are different and thus they would make a different Jak experience, but because that's the case I'd say they should just leave Jak alone for now. Jak is my favorite franchise and if they change it I don't think I'd be happy.
Also, after pondering I realized why Jak didn't get a movie. He's not really a family friendly character like Ratchet and Sly. But, it being animated would also limit it's adult audience. There really is no market for a Jak movie.
*Jak and Daxter Shouldn't Get a Sequel until we get a new Crash Bandicoot first. There, fixed your title for you.
this is most likely going to be an HD remake or something, I don't think a new game is going to be announced but if it's is, I couldn't be happier.
It was obviously a joke ...
Defo needing a HD Jak & Daxter game this gen, be it a remake or a completely new game. I can't wait regardless :)
i would buy a hd remake cus they all rocked (even 1)xD
I just got really happy, and then really sad. The first Jak and Daxter is my all time favourite game. They better not be joking around.
We need a HD Jak and Daxter. Pleeeeeeease. :3
