I gotta say, I love the change of scenery in Jak 3. The desert area is actually pretty cool and contrasts nicely with the city

[@DragonX10101]

I actually like Jak 3 more than Jak II. But hey, it's an opinion. It didn't cause me to break my PS3 controller a few times and I thought driving a vehicle was really fun.

[@batdog12100]

I feel the excact same way. I liked the setting of a barren wasteland and the different vehicle options. I also liked the story a lot. But like you said: taste is subjective

[@josemesa2934]

The setting and vehicles and fact that we have two worlds to explore and the metal heads constantly attacking the city makes it somewhat better. But the story and the missions are worse than jak 2 so I go with jak 2

[@josemesa2934]

Just too many mini games in 3 lmao. But you know what it’s been years since I played maybe I’ll try again and see. Still love both

[@DaMetaEX]

***** Daxter: Could have been better story was well throught out

Jak 3 is my favorite out of the trilogy

[@frenchoffry]

Really? Most ppl I know who've played the games usually say the 2nd is the best with the 1st a close second.

[@mohanadkhal]

Jak 3 is so fun to play. I prefer it over the other two games

[@briannamahmoudi1248]

Same, Jak 3 felt like an expansion on the ideas from jak 2 done right.

Same I liked the desert driving. 2 was amazing and the story was a bit better but I still preferred 3

[@Dante_Sparda_DMC]

In my opinion it just felt bland in terms of side content and color, but the gameplay was still kinda fun

[@fury625]

jak 2 and 3 will never bore me, play them to infinity.

[@spaceagequice4754]

I absolutely love Jak 3. It built upon Jak II without changing too much which kept it familiar but it also threw in a lot of mini games and challenges. It was fun and engaging all the way through. Even though it does have some flaws it's almost a perfectly executed sequel to Jak II. I actually didn't like Jak II, for me it was too challenging and not very engaging. It just felt like I was constantly running errands. But in Jak 3 I actually felt like almost all the missions had purpose, but then again that's my opinion. To say it's a bad game because you don't like is unfair. There's plenty of games I hate that are considered good games. For example I don't really like RPG's but that doesn't mean they're bad.

[@vesselinkrastev]

I actually preferred Jak 3's dune buggies and desert compared to Jak 2's urban setting. I guess it's a perspective thing.

[@goober69er]

3 felt like the best because you got to do both.

[@wozthescott2804]

Huge disagree. The Desert felt so empty and all the missions were bad, including the final boss

[@batdog12100]

It's all subjective. I prefer the desert aswell

[@ltft-lowthresholdforthrill1629]

Jak X can be a punishing experience if you're not well versed in racing games, on the flip side it can be so rewarding to know you've nailed a corner perfectly and hooked up a straight. Each track has a lot of character that you can't take for granted, it pretty much forces you to be aggressive so that you've not constantly spinning from understeer or having any number of random bumps shift the whole car. It can be mastered and when you plant your first perfect lap you will want it over and over again.

[@Scanny524]

Everyone's giving you shit for your Jak 3 review, which while a little lazy was fine. You don't think it's fantastic, pointed out some reasonable flaws, and that's a fine opinion. But I really don't think you should have crammed in a review of Jak X as well. It came across as an afterthought when it IS, to be fair, its own complete game. On top of that, you didn't even finish it! I'm sorry, but you really shouldn't review a game you haven't finished. And it's not like it's THAT hard. My ten year old self could beat, I'm sure you could too with enough time, effort, and practice. I know this review is over a year old, and it's obviously well past the point where this could be considered relevant, but you should have devoted this entire video to Jak 3. You could have further fleshed out the review, explaining your point of view on the game. Then you could have given yourself a bit more time to beat Jak X, and then had a full video for that too.

When I got the game back in 04, I was convinced that Kleiver sent the Marauders out of spite because he lost a race...

[@travistjmacmccollum]

I still haven't gotten over that goatee. That was a sign of things to come for me.

[@HikaruBaskerville]

3:40 Actually, the game does explain. They're essentially Marauders who make a living off of finding artifacts and killing anyone that A. Trespasses on their land, or B. is a wastelander out to find said artifacts as well. Basically the petty thieves of the desert.

[@Mixa_Lv]

The gun balance for Jak 3 was terrible, ricocheting yellow rifle op. Also it was the easiest ammo type to find.

[@vaerrik1082]

+Mixa In Jak 3, you are very overpowered, it's almost impossible to die. The majority of the deaths are 'oops, missed the jump' or shit, I ran out of time. If you get hurt, Light heal. Light Jak, aside from the heal, is pretty useless unless required in a mission. Dark Jak is a bit more useful, with his dmg reduction and power spike. In Jak 2, the majority of the game is AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH! Jak 2 you needed the guns to get even with the guards, and the guards....the damn guards. 3 types: The, "how the hell did you pass, you cant even fight" kind, the "won academy sharpshooter award 7 times consecutively" kind, and the Kamikaze vehicle guards. Not to mention the turrets that annihilate your vehicles. The game was hard, but very fun, with a huge diffuculty spike when sun guards where introduced

[@Mixa_Lv]

Krimzon Shadow Yeah, Jak3 was more about the guns, eco powers were mainly for puzzles which I was pretty fine with, One thing that Lost Frontier did right was to actually make the eco powers more viable in battle. In Jak1 they were also only for puzzles, and in Jak2 next to worthless since you died so often anyways:3 Jak 2 was very oldschool, you had these guns and really nothing else, the checkpoints were rare and it was hard as fuck.

Jak is such an underrated series imo.. ratchet gets wayyy to much credit.. its like call of duty(ratchet) vs battlefield(jak)

[@teddyisaliar271]

well it's probably cause naughty dog didn't continue the series which is an absolute shame cause the jak and daxter story to me is confusing at epic at the time cause when there us time travel involved it's confusing. And I'm still trying to put the pieces together still cause in love this series. I love both in just want to see jak 4 or should I say a reboot which I don't really want cause the triolgy left at a great cliffhanger. and ratchet is more popular because imsomnic loved there mascots. If naughty dog aren't going to do anything with jak or daxter why don't they give it to a different company who will treat it with respect and maybe continue where they left off.

[@dcbandit]

I want to mention how I love the customization you can do in Jak X, how I love it and wish there was more racing games with this level of customization, but I don't think anybody will read this here on a very old video. Shame, really, with little else new relevant reviews.

The Jak series is the my favorite game series of all time and they were my games when growing up and I have to say, you nailed these reviews spot. I loved these reviews.

[@pestilenssi8979]

Can I have your mask~

[@NintendanGX]

This review is terrible. Here's why. 1. Jak 3 isn't the exact same game. If you mean it's the same KIND of game as Jak II, then sure. It's a 3D platformer/third-person sandbox shooter. The gunplay is a lot better in this game since Jak locks onto enemies more easily, the gun upgrades are awesome and more plentiful than Jak II, Dark Jak is improved since you don't need to be at full percent with your dark Eco in order to transform, and you can shift back to normal at will. Oh, and Light Jak's great for healing yourself whenever there's no more health pick-ups. So if anything, the core gameplay is much better than Jak II, and the checkpoints are a lot more reasonable. 2. You're embarassing attempts to sound funny begin falling flat when you call Seem "Idunno, a hippie?". Every character, including Seem himself, clearly state that he's a monk who worships the Precursors. It's not a good joke when the fact that he's a monk is already common knowledge. 3. Of course the desert's not as busy as Haven City, dumbass. It's a desert... There's still plenty to do in it, though. Aren't you forgetting the Precursor statues and the challenges issued by Cleaver? Oh, and those "random maniacs" are marauders... Daxter says during several missions "We gotta chase those marauders, Jak!". Why are they there? Well think about it, it's in the name... They'll raid anyone unlucky enough to be in their way and take whatever they can get. And I didn't have as much trouble as you when driving across the wastelands. Sure, it's bumpy, and a little annoying at first, but most human beings who play a game learn to adapt and improve. It's pretty satisfying, to me at least, gunning down marauders in an armed buggy. 4. Those "random" missions aren't random at all, in any context. The changes in gameplay actually give the game an identity, not an identity crisis. They keep things fresh, without overstaying their welcome, and they're all executed pretty damn well. 5. Kleiver also makes you do races and vehicle challenges which earn you more vehicles. You completely ignored that fact. 6. I don't think you understand how romance works... "ASHELIN HAS MORE DIALOGS DAN KEIRA DOES! DAS BAD! AND SHE BE NICE TO JAK LOTS AND TALK TO HIM MORE, DAT MEANS DEY IN LUV!". It was made pretty fucking obvious during the end of Jak II that Ashelin had eyes for Torn. It's even hinted at during Jak X. 7. Yeah, it was an emotional scene. Sure, it was already spoiled to me, but after seeing Damas slowly open up to Jak and become more of a father figure to him, only to die after helping him without realising that was his long-lost son was pretty sad. To add salt on the wound, Vegar taunts Jak that his father never knew his son was with him till it was too late. Though none of that matters apparently, because for some unexplained reason you dictate to us, the story is a mess... I think what you meant to say was the script for your review was a mess. 8. Yeah, let's gloss over the fact that Cyber Errol was more than just "a thing", he was the main fucking villain. Let's not explain how he was already present in the game before the second half, or that he was the one who controlled the Death Bots, or that he planned on crashing that star into the planet to kill everyone and everything, or that you have to take him down in an epic final battle in which you use a buggy to shoot his Darkmaker Ship's legs down, then climb onto his back and finish him off after making it through everything he throws at you. 9. Going straight into your Jak X review, you just steal a joke that was already made in the game, regarding how Krew's daughter looks nowhere near as deformed as he does. How lazy do you have to be? 10. Use each red eco weapon just before you're about to collect another one and you'll eventually get a more defensive one that'll help with the more dangerous attacks from the other racers. It's this little thing called "Strategy". You might wanna use it more when you play games, not to mention games that aren't even that hard to begin with. 11. Okay, there's no doubt about it, you suck at driving in games. The driving in Jak X was much smoother than Jak 3, and yet you STILL have trouble? Again, most human beings learn to get used to the controls of a game after like, what? 30 minutes? Maybe an hour tops? Track memorisation also helps. 12. Ummmm... What? Each vehicle in the game has their own different weight. How the fuck is "changing the weight" supposed to be a crucial attribute missing from vehicle customisation? Isn't improving the top speed, acceleration, armour and turbo enough? And how would the characters logically add more weight to the vehicles that are supposed to be light? Do you expect them to just throw a few bags of sand into the cockpit or something? What fucked-up logic is this? Sorry AntDude, I generally enjoy your content, but this double review was atrocious. You tried too hard to be funny in the style of game reviewers before you that you ended up being the one with an identity crisis, and your review suffered as a result. It made you come off as completely closed-minded and ignorant, you glossed over the more noteworthy features of Jak 3 without taking time to do them justice, and you brought up no legitimate complaints whatsoever in either game. All the problems you did mention were down to your personal preference or skill, and you wrote them off as being genuine problems without justifying yourself. You really need to do a redux review, because this is so bad.

[@AntDude92]

NintendanGX Believe me, this is my least favorite video since I rebooted my channel last Summer. I reached a point of "Man, I painted myself into a corner with talking about Jak 3 and I don't like the game all that much." I was also more focused on getting this video out so I can progress to Buck Bumble, which I considered the start of my "Season 2." At the end of the day, I don't take back what I said about Jak 3 & X. The games simply don't do much for me. And for example, you argue the missions give Jak 3 and identity, but I still believe it's more of an identity crisis. It's perfectly fine to agree to disagree! I didn't try to upset people; that's just how I feel.

[@NintendanGX]

[@shawklan27]

NintendanGX I know I was just mixing my opinion with you're own

[@mistersir2074]

NintendanGX Honestly, I thought the story in Jak 3 was very gripping, more so than Jak 2's storyline. For some reason, to me, it felt like they were working towards these events in the previous games as well, and this time it's about saving the world, which makes Jak 3's story pretty damn epic in my opinion. Kind of like a grand finale to the trilogy, you know? There are so many things I like about this game (the epic soundtrack is another one - and I believe AntDude got that seriously wrong in this review), but the story is the main thing which makes me remember this game and series. I still enjoyed this review because I like to hear other people's opinions, but I couldn't believe what I was hearing when Dude said the story in this game is a mess. Oh well, everyone has their opinion...

[@driftnick7022]

Jak X is one of the best racing games ever. I wouldn't put it over CTR because nostalgia, but this game makes SO many things right I can't believe it. Your opponents are ALWAYS on your ass, and the pack is together almost always, so you have to be careful constantly, you'll never be winning by a landslide. Also the weapons make it all the more fun (or frustrating, depending on the situation). There will be times when you're in 1st, get destroyed, and all of a sudden you're 6th (last), but you can climb back up the rankings just as fast as you dropped down, making the results a total mystery until you're almost at the finish line. You will rage at that last moment take-out that screwed you from winning, and you will feel like a master when you do that to somebody else, no better feeling than out-boosting an opponent right before the finish line, it's really intense, and I've never had such fun with a racing game in years.

[@TheShadesOfBlack]

To be fair, the end twist of Jak 3 seems like the perfect twist for this series.

[@AbbiXIII]

I, for once, think Jak X is my favourite racing game. It's lots of fun to play with friends, the soundtrack is kick ass and while the game's AI is relentless in it's offensive I've come up with strategies that made most of the races quite the smooth sailing, such as holding the red weapons for deflecting missile attacks, only using them when I'm about to go thru another red weapon "bubble", that way I always have some defense against the missiles, staying the majority of the race in 2nd place to avoid this game's equivalent to the blue shell and only going 1st at the end of the last lap, and using boosts at the end of a drift to help me adjust the trajectory of my car.

story wise I don't have the same rose tinted glasses I do for the story as I used to when I was younger, but honestly for Naughty Dogs first attempt at a more serious story they could've done a lot more worse. were there plot holes? sure, cliches? yup, flaws in the dialogue? yup, was the story bad? fuck no! the story was something of an ode to various movie genres/movies, with Precursor Legacy you had the heroes on a quest story, with Jak II you had the post apocalypse story mixed with some cyberpunk elements, and with Jak 3 you had a brilliant story of redemption (though I have to admit I find it odd that Haven City were quick to stab Jak in the back but you could argue that politics had an involvement in that decision)

I found the villain Errol to be a weak choice for the main antagonist. He served better as a secondary one in Jak 2, so it was like how Prince Charming was the main antagonist of Shrek 3 after he was the secondary in 2. His boss segments weren't very imaginative either; instead of changing up and using the concept that a cyborg would be a fearsome melee opponent, boss showdowns are him shooting at you and taking turns with waves of minions.

[@JAKanDAX]

*Jak 3* Are you fucking kidding me? Gameplay is weaker??? W.T.F?! Guess the improved Zoomers, more (so much) variety of gameplay, more upgrades to all guns, more eco powers and forms, more gun mods, the addition of racing in 8 dune buggies, as opposed to just the Zoomers, the return of the bird like animal that you ride, more Daxter-play, control of a KG Bot, better and improved Jetboard (with new tricks and mechanics *also*), a better Dark Jak in multiple areas (can go into form at any percentage of DE in your possession, can revert back to normal at will, which also happens to save you Dark Eco instead of it all disappearing unlike in Jak II, new powers, actual level areas that requires Dark Jak to be used to get through) *ETC* (you clearly have no idea what you're talking about). The music is also better, especially since Jak actually gets his own theme for the first time in the series AND since ND didn't copy and paste any segments of songs into their other tracks like they heavily did in Jak II (this is noticeable in the OST's named tracks alone between both games). The story is only slightly weaker and the things Jak does in 3 is training for him to be ready to fight the Dark Makers. It's true the story is weaker in Jak 3, by not by as much as ppl claim, and there is a perspective of the story that people nearly never admit or seem to be aware of. *Jak X* Overall was a solid (great) game (everything included- music, gameplay, story, missions/gameplay variety, game modes, character depth, etc, etc) and like Jak 3 (with the Zoomers), heavily improved upon the gameplay. You will surely not have the same experience that you had in the desert in Jak 3 in Jak X Combat Racing. If you do, it will only be in the beginning, as you obviously have to train and practice to get better in a game you've just started playing- The handling and controls are much better, so you rationally cannot place the same complains or experience the same experiences. Oh, and this game should have been remastered, and because of the way this game was handled, it's important to the series and worth playing, if you still have the system it's on. Only reason not to play it is if you don't own a PS2 (not because it's a bad game, which it's not by any means), because the game is great enough to "need" to play (not ignore) if you have system.

***** Oh look, a futile comment and a guy who for some stupid reason thought his minor post would make a difference or has purpose here. Whether you like it or not, a lot of people are poor judges, are biased, and don't know how to correctly compare games towards which is better in a series. Jak II is also a very hard game, from a general perspective. Trying to use your trained experience as a point to the general makes you irrational and stupid. Obviously after you've had time and exposure to a game for a good amount of time, you'd be better at it, be able to handle it better, than most others. Jak 3 is the better game, because it has more superior aspects (weaker story doesn't make a game inferior in comparisons) than Jak II, and that's just a pure fact.

Aura Guardian Seriously this guy doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about! this game was my fucking child hood! I bet you any money that he didn't grow up playing this fucking awesome game.. he's just not use to the game mechanics.. real shit fuck this review! damnn I just remember this game being soo addicting like when I was 11 dude! :D

[@windy3935]

Jane Batatia Fix Jak 3? Jak 3 has no technical issues. Jak II is the game with a lot of actual technical issues, which is one of the reasons that makes it inferior to Jak II. The game having better story and more indepth character roles doesn't compare to a game that has no technical issues (glitches excluded as every game has those), a "good" story, better gameplay, etc. Jak 3 has a few inferior aspects to Jak II, yes, and Jak II also has a few inferior aspects to Jak 3, but at the end of the da Jak 3 wins it because its the better developed game. Everyone who claims Jak II is the better game is biased and delusional. I forgot the word for it, but there is a word for those who look at the game or strengths of something while ignoring its flaws. If Jak II didn't have the problems with the camera, the checkpoint issue, and even gameplay issues such as zoomers cntrol, the overwhelming traffic, then Jak II would be the better game. ***** This comment was entirely unnecessary and irrelevant. You're clearly a biased Jak II fanboy, and the guy can't realize what you said because he was never against your belief. Jak II is technically and statistically overrated, and it is the game in the series that is not as amazing as people say (because of its technical and in game issue), so get your bull-shit out of here.

[@windy3935]

***** You're obviously biased... obviously. Since a game is mostly about gameplay, Jak II should be the worst game you've ever played. Using story as a form of compensation and defense is stupid as fuck, yes making you stupid and legit biased. There's a reason why Jak II is usually bashed at the most when it comes down to how it was handled as a game. And yes there was technical issues. Being delusional won't help your case. There's technical issues and poor game design elements in Jak II, period. This is a fact. If you argue against it I won't bother with pointless circular argument. And here's where most biased shows. It was a bit disappointing, but to say major disappointing is an overstatement and exaggeration. Jak 3 delivered on everything but a *longer* story. Idiots and dumbasses like you only see length as determining what has the better story. Jak II has a lot of unnecessary story segments which makes part of the story redundant, irrelevant, and most important, repetitive so Jak II doesn't deserve the full default credit that it gets. Jak 3 delivered on things Jak II failed to execute and confirm, such as the situations with the Precursors, which was left hanging and unanswered from the first game, Daxter's transformation into an ottsel was explained, Jak became an actual likeable and better designed character appearance wise and personality wise, Jak's father debuts and his backstory with it's relevance to the entire storyline and pre-Jak TPL is explained, Jak's capture was explained, and certaintly the Dark Makers were successors and better than the Metal Heads, as they at least have a big and more interesting story. All we got from the Metal heads were that they Precursor's enemies who have destroyed their civilation. Wow, that sure is something. So broad. Obviously there's more things to list, but yeah. If biased ppl like you really claim Jak's character was worst in Jak 3 then there is literally no point in taking anything else serious in your comments, especially when y'all consistently claim how bad Jak 3 is with false and exaggerated flaws of the game. I am not biased for Jak 3, your logic is terrible.

[@janebatatia5606]

jak 3 isn't terrible nor one one of the worst game i have played but i enjoyed jak 2 more.I do prefer jak 3 over jak x even if jak x had a better story but I like jak 3 better because its a platformer like jak and daxter should be. i also preferred it over jak tpl i didn't feel like replaying tpl anytime soon after i finished it. but it was a LOT better than the lost frontier seriously f*** the lost frontier. i also prefer jak 3 over any uncharted game. uncharted 1 2 and 3 are the exact same game minus story and multiplayer. its a good game overall but a prefer jak 2 because of the points above.

[@thesaltyzoroark6638]

Dude, you don't know?! If you have save data for Ratchet: Deadlocked on the same memory card that you have Jak X: Combat Racing, you can unlock Ratchet as a secret driver!

[@KibblezanBitz]

I had Jak X Combat Racing. Literally never played it. Our PS2 controllers broke shortly after I got the game for Christmas, and by the time we got a new controller, we'd sold a bunch of our games in order to afford a Wii so we could get Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

[@Goldensunsheba]

I called that Daxter was a Precurssor before I even finished the first game.

[@dryoshkaiwhominecraftpe6371]

In Mario Kart Wii, you get bombarded with items a lot and there's no way to come back in 1st place.

[@CheeseTank12]

Jak X is the same but the cart have a Health frames where taking chip damage in a focused area can hinder steering and max speed which is auto patched after crashing, & a Dark eco meter when at max from explosion other racers upgrades whatever pickups to dangerous levels. Weapons with Max Dark Eco can turn the entire race in their favor, even the Peace maker (the games Blue Shell) even has that, think Blue shell with the hitbox of a banzai bill, normal grounded turret shooting bullets are firing missiles, & simple oil slick are set on fire & have you taking damage while on fire.

Jak XCR filled the void of cart racers my PS2 collection lacks & make a great Mario Kart clone.

[@somedrunkguy8786]

Hey I grew up playing the ALL of the jak games. I love all of them since they really give me a challenge and make me feel like a badass. Jak 2 was my favorite out of all of them.

[@itaybashan3757]

Jak 3 is my favorite of the series

[@MythicSuns]

here's the difference though **spoiler alert** Baron Praxis died from striking a deal with the devil (pretty much), Damas died from helping Jak to save the world.

[@MythicSuns]

tbh jak and vegers reaction when they find out who the precursors are is exactly the same as the players.

[@T4RHUN]

I actually enjoyed all Jak games equally.

[@thesaltyzoroark6638]

Except Lost Frontier right? C'mon, you gotta hate that game.
