One of my fav franchises last gen, what is everyone's fave jax n dax game, i would say mine is Jak 2.

Cajun Chicken4966d ago

Jak 2 is one of my favourite games of all time, but the sand effects in Jak 3 are still great to this day. Wonder who's porting them?

SaiyanFury4966d ago

I loved the second game, but I have to say the third game remains my fave in the trilogy. Personally, I got too frustrated too many times in the second one. The third, I also got frustrated, but not nearly as much. Either way, I'm getting this one on day one. :)

ReservoirDog3164966d ago (Edited 4966d ago )

Honestly, 1 has aged ridiculously well. Little things like being able to see the final level in the distance when you're in the first stage and the controls being perfect and everything. 2 actually hasn't truly aged too well but it's still really good. I always remember 3 as being really good too.

All in all, can't wait for this.

edit: I can't wait for the R&C trilogy too. Playing R&C A4O and I'm just missing the true* R&C feeling. It's not bad, it's just different.

DonaldBeck4966d ago (Edited 4966d ago )

yea jax was a great series

they are beans

coolbeans4966d ago (Edited 4966d ago )

I find Jak 2 to be one of the PS2's best exclusives (fav. in series as well).

thereapersson4966d ago

Jak 1 was one of the best games ever made, but Jak 2 improved on everything that the first one did, making it the best of the series.

Outside_ofthe_Box4966d ago

Jak 3 is may favorite simply because it was semi open world/ GTA-like with the ability to jack hover vehicles and exploration. Jak 3 has me wanting a Jak 4.

I'd rather have a Jak 4 than an HD remake to be honest. If the HD remake sells poorly then all hope is lost for a Jak 4. :(

SageHonor4966d ago

Jak 2 is also one of the hardest games ive ever played.

Gazman4966d ago

yeah the second in the trilogy is my favorite, its such a great series.

SpaceFox4966d ago

I've never played Jak 2, but between the original and 3 I'd have to say the original is better.

Can't wait to play these again and finally get a chance to play Jak 2.

WhiteLightning4966d ago

that made me wanna play a platformer

PoSTedUP3799d ago (Edited 3799d ago )

just bought the Jak collection a few hours ago for vita! my platforming experience atm is unparalleled ; ). ND nailed it with JakIII, theyre all amazing games. even the psp one was good. i better see a JakIIII this gen it would ruin my social life. wait i already did that.

jumping back on Jak1.

Tapani3799d ago (Edited 3799d ago )

Oh come on, at least learn the Roman number four if you use those letters!

Didn't you play Ultima IV? You know, four! :D

PoSTedUP3799d ago (Edited 3799d ago )

i was using tally marks... jk. silly mistake, mustve been the excitement. im actually the "fourth" of my generation and have written IV at the end of my name my whole life, so ironic!!! lol.

GameSpawn3799d ago

Be careful, Jak II will make you snap your Vita in half, especially on the hero mode play through. The Forest mission, Sewer mission and one of the two turret missions are the hardest missions of all the Jak games. With unlimited ammo on the second play through everything mentioned is easier EXCEPT the turret missions; NONE of the cheat unlocks help on those missions and the flying enemies are twice as hard to kill (go for the head or their rocket packs).

The hardest thing in Jak III was the button press mini-game on the satellite (it's easy enough to complete for the required story mission, but the revisit to get the Gold high score and the 9 orb reward is hard).

LightDiego3799d ago

I'm playing right now Jak and Daxter collection too, finished Jak 1 and now i will start Jak 2.
Awesome games.

ApolloTheBoss3798d ago (Edited 3798d ago )

Did you miss the Anniversary sale? I think it was for 10 bucks just yesterday.

mikeslemonade3798d ago

Meh.. I almost forgot that there was Jak collection. I think it was called the double pack.

Of course I'm excited for the remake.

bouzebbal3798d ago

Jak2 is the best Jak in the series to me, followed closely by Daxter PSP.
I don't know what a remake might bring to Jak 2 because the game is perfect the way it is. What we need is a brand new episode.

Nintentional23798d ago

If Sony made a next gen Jak and Daxter,and brought out more platformers, I would buy a PlayStation again for the firsr time since the PS2.

PoSTedUP3798d ago

@apollo- i didnt see it on the sale, i only saw the R&C for $15.

christian hour3799d ago

If t was a square enix game, they'd wait until the fan project was nearly completed and then send out a cease and desist :P Good to see that's not the issue with ND and they appreciate fan projects :D

Snookies123799d ago (Edited 3799d ago )

So awesome that he's okay with this happening! That's how it should be! Looking at you Square Enix and Nintendo, always shutting down fan remakes of games. :[

christian hour3799d ago

I came n here to point that very thing out :) All those chrono trigger fan projects, may they RIP :(

DragonKnight3799d ago

Apparently Nintendo has backed down on that recently and has now apparently embraced fan made projects or "derivative works" as they call them.

Square Enix still sucks.

ShellB3799d ago

Maybe Evan is ok with it but SONY on the other hand might be thinking 'slow your role there partner'.

Dee_913798d ago

This guy isn't remaking the game he's only remaking certain levels.

Vegamyster3798d ago

Mario 64 is getting a fan HD remake, like DragonKnight said they don't really have an issue with it anymore.

spacedelete3799d ago

how about a Jak 4 ? i'd take that over any Uncharted game any day.

Highlife3799d ago

Not me. I would rather they make a new ip. Some other studio can do a Jak IV

Feralkitsune3799d ago

For sure, that series actually had some originality going for it. Every Uncharted game feels the same gameplay wise.

The PS2 had the best games.

Muzikguy3799d ago

I was thinking about this the other day and although I liked the PS2 I think IMO that the PS1 had the best games. There were just so many good ones I was rattling them off for like 10 minutes and still missing some. I thought of more while typing this even. Both were great generations for gaming!!

BitbyDeath3798d ago (Edited 3798d ago )

Jak and these older games are better off left with the indie crowd. Studios with a ton of money and talent should stick to new games with new features. Stuff that wasn't possible before.

Sharingan_no_Kakashi3799d ago

Accept the art style isnt true to Jak franchise...

Relientk773799d ago

We need more platformers this generation

knifefight3798d ago

You know what series I'd love to see come back? Klonoa.

Forgot how much Jak 2 had GTA style gameplay

God...imagine Jak 4 as a massive open world game

sasmanator4939d ago

This was by far my favorite series on the PS2.

Lucreto4939d ago

I hope the game has a few more checkpoints.
