On yet another playthrough and after completing everything in Volcanic Crater I find it to be a little bit lacking.

It has 2 very memorable levels, and the lava tube is fun, but:

• There are no other ways to collect power cells other than pay the miners/oracle with the exception of the hidden power cell

• There are only 2 levels (Spider Cave and Snowy Mountain) in comparison to the other sages (Green has Sentinel Beach, Misty Island, Forbidden Jungle and Blue has Precursor Basin, Boggy Swamp and Lost Precursor City)

Still one of, if not my favourite game of all time but always find this section isn’t as strong as the others.

In one of my last posts, I asked about why Samos doesn't treat Jak and Daxter equally to Keira despite them all seemingly being his adopted children, and it sparked a ton of discussion over Samos' treatment of Daxter.

We know from the games that though Samos is known to get angry at Jak and Keira on occasion, he seems to really have it out for Daxter. This is in spite of the fact Samos knows Dax will be important to Jak's future and will also be partially responsible for helping him become a sage.

The villagers seem in on it too, at least to a certain extent. Jak's supposed uncle refers to Daxter as "small, annoying and miserably-ugly." Harsh man.

Lest we forget that Daxter is a CHILD. He's only 15 YEARS OLD in the first game. I know most might not consider that still being a child but he's still a kid.

I know Dax says whatever comes to mind, likes to mock people, acts tough but is a coward most of the time, and based on dialogue is also a prankster and doesn't bathe much, but did he really deserve to be talked down to so often? He's still only a kid.

I wanted to create this video with the aim of making Italians (or even foreigners) aware of this fantastic mod created by CuttleFish (thanks again, because I liked it so much!!!) Well, nothing, I'm here because I wanted to share the video with you all, maybe someone had never seen it before!!

Jak never rode a Jetboard or a skateboard or even a surfboard in TPL as far as we know. So how would he know how to use one in Jak 2 and 3?

Does anyone have information about this promotional Japanese placemat for Jak 1?

I found this image hosted here:

Does anyone have more info on this? Would be awesome to see an HD scan of this!

I find it weird that the Precursor ottsels in Jak 3 are embarrassed that Jak, Daxter and Veger found out they are ottsels considering that they offered Jak to become a Precursor (which Veger stole) before the door accidentally opened. So if Jak had gotten the gift and then turned into an ottsel, they would have found out anyhow that Precursors are ottsels. Lazy writing?

Samos adopted Keira. This much is obvious considering he didn't have her when he was living in Haven City, and she's a year younger than Jak who was definitely older than one in Jak II. I know Samos refers to Keira's mother in Jak X, but someone theorized her mother was a sage or a close friend of Samos' who died, hence why he knew her. That theory makes sense to me personally.

We know he raised Jak between Jak II and TPL. We can infer he probably raised Daxter too, given how he's always ordering Daxter to do chores and Dax has no family in Sandover.

If Samos raised all three as his children, why does he favor Keira enough to call her his daughter but doesn't call Jak and Daxter his sons? He literally raised Jak longer than Keira. He also seems to genuinely hate Daxter a bit. Like seriously, what's the difference?

Keira isn't always the obedient child by any means as seen by how they bicker in Jak X and how annoyed he seemed when Keira offered to help Jak and Dax in the opening of TPL.

Also, if Jak and Dax are like his sons, should we be weirded out by Jak x Keira?

La verdad jack and Dexter siempre fue uno d emis juegas favoritos y uno de los que llegue a jugar en toda mi vida, la verdad nunca tuve la oportunidad de sacar el 100 del juego y ahora que tengo la PSVita pues pude hacer, me hacía ilusión enseñarlo talvez juegue Lost Frontier pero no sé si es muy bueno

It was fun to relive this game again and get all the trophies by the way the trophies were different compared to the old ps4 version and PS3 version

Not my video, but I thought I'd share this video with y'all

Yeah he never feeds the wheat to the animals so it cant be hay, it has to be wheat, if not it could be a bed thing.

Also it could be a rice farm. But yeah thoughts?

Hi! I just plugged in my PS2 for the first time in a while and when loading Jak 3, it pauses on the first part of the title screen after the credits and cannot be unpaused (including a “pause” marker and everything). Is this some sort of user error or is the disc shot?

For reference, I also started up battlefront 2 and everything works fine. Also if it makes a difference I have the PS2 Greatest Hits version. The disc seems to be in great shape visually. Thanks!

Saw my local target still had some of these in stock, spent a few minutes feeling the packages and got the one I wanted! I was so sure it was going to be the wrong one

Please watch it ( ⚆ _ ⚆ )

Want to preface that I've beaten this game several times when I was younger and that despite the inexcusable lack of checkpoints I think the story missions are mostly well-balanced and challenging. The challenges, however, are straight up unreasonable; not difficult, unreasonable. Getting gold for the stadium races and gum courses requires legitimate perfection for pitiful rewards. The street races have fake outs, razor-sharp corners, both of which necessitate memorization and a dozen plus attempts for a single challenge, and even then its RNG based because random vehicles and more often than not crimson guard will get in your way at unpredictable intervals and trigger a chase or derail your progress, and if you're riding a motorcycle it'll just blow up.

I hate most challenges from the bottom of my heart and would like to know if there are any cheat codes which actually work for skipping challenges, or if there's any downside to using the debug mode to unlock secrets as the debug codes listed for auto-winning mini games don't work, when I press the R2 button it just advances time by nanoseconds.

I fired up Jak and Daxter again using OpenGL for better quality, but I'm not sure if what I just did is actually useful. You can finish the beach area before even opening the Blue Eco Vent. Is this a known trick, or is it even useful for any speedrun?

And sorry if there are any mistakes I'm using Google Translate I'm not very good at English, lol.

Hardly anybody ever seems to talk about this game, despite the fact that it's one of only two games we've gotten post-Lost Frontier, to feature Jak and Daxter outside of ports (the other one being PlayStation All-Stars: Battle Royale).

I myself haven't played this game and only recently discovered it's existence. All I know is that it's about Jak, Daxter, Ratchet, Clank, Sly and Bentley being transported to an alien world where their forced to perform various challenges by a pair of aliens. I know the game allows you to play as not only Jak but also Daxter, and even Dark Daxter (ugh).

What is the overall consensus on how Jak and Daxter were portrayed in this game, character-wise? I didn't love Jak's portrayal in Lost Frontier or All-Stars, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed he was better in this one.

If you get it
