Yes, Jak 2 is a long game. The towns you must operate the hovercraft in are a confusing maze. It seems to take forever just to complete one task let alone beat the clock in some missions. In defense of the game, It is quite innovative and I see nothing objectionable about Jak's new, tougher look. To sum it all up. The game is just plain hard and demands patience. Be prepared for a challenge if you buy this game.
AWESOME!!!

This game is the best game ever. You should buy it immediately if you liked Jak and Daxter. After you beat the game, you can go back to any level and do it over again, and that cool stuff. You can even do gun courses and other fun stuff in other levels like you did before. You should buy it right now.

Platforming fans should be happy with this one. Jak II was one of the best games I played in 2003. It is possibly the best ps2 game ever made. The game is great and it is the way a sequal should be. The game takes place in a controlled currupted city called Haven City. It is controlled by the man who put Jak through hell for 2 years, Barron Praxis. You then meet other great characters like Vin,Sig,Kor and others. The game has alot of twist and turns. The graphics are a huge success in the game.
Every backround detailed and sharp. The city is HUGE! Really huge acctually. I thought The character development was good. One thing that made this game really awsome is that Jak gets guns. Awsome guns! The Blaster, Scatter, Fulcon fury and peace maker gun. What also made me enjoy this game was that it wasnt short nor long. I hate short games or alteast games little to do. This game isnt like that. THIS GAME IS EXTREAMLY REPETITIVE! One mission took me like an hour to finish. Also the mission variety is great. 60 awsome missions. Some long though. The greatness of this game is shown with pure action.
And if youre looking for a game to beat in 2 days I think you should leave this title alone. Over all if you want lots of game play and lots of hours of mayhem get Jak 2. It is long enough to say this game kicks ass. It took me 23 hours to beat.
Over all its a great game. Get it.
Jak III comes out in october!!!!!
An excellent and challenging update to a favorite...

My whole family loved the original Jak & Daxter game. We all finished it from end to end and even played it through more than once.
This new game takes the story line and adds *very* challenging new ways to accomplish "missions" for a various number of good guys and bad guys in the story line. At first, I was put off by the use of weapons instead of the normal Jak behavior, but after a time I enjoyed the interaction and adventure with the new monsters and environment.
One small note, though, I really missed the adventure aspect of the first game in this version. Several missions do harken to the Precursor age... but I think there should have been more.
A great game but with a con.

Jak 2 is a great game with challenging levels. You can JET-board around Haven City or through a level. Haven City is MASSIVE! The largest level outside is the Mountain Temple/Haven Forest level. Collecting precurser orbs is optional but you should try as you can unlock helpful secrets. It obviously has the Grand Theft Auto style form of gameplay as you can choose to do missions or explore Haven City on foot or JET-board or hover craft. My favorite level in the game is the Metal Head Nest. You can see the nest while on one of the support cables that connect to the palace looking south-west. It looks like a bunch of large spikey rocks. THE HORRIBLE CON IS IN HERO MODE (200 orbs). YOU WILL BE STUCK ON THIS MISSION FOR WEEKS: Distroy Ship At Drill Platform. Overall I insist you buy this game as Playstation gave it 10/10. That is above Ratchet & Clank 2: Locked and Loaded. You must buy this game, it's a must have!!!
Gameplay Renegade or Genre Retrogade?

Jaks bak! um, back with guns and his... What the hell is Daxter anyway. By the way it looks really good with its gorgeous graphics and super fun gameplay. This time around Jaks taken a big inspiration from ratchet and clank and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City but better than both, call me crazy but... Its better than I'd hoped it would be maybe thats the best way to say it. Who would expect Jak coming back with guns and a goatee. Its time to kiss those precursor orbs goodbye for you longer need to collect them, like vice city Jak II is about doing what you want whenever you want. Jak has also stolen vice cities map. In the Jak II trailer you see them pumping dark ocho into Jak thats another thing that has changed. Collecting dark echo from defeated enemies adds it to the dark echo bar which when its full you press L2 and Jak gets all big and mean. One of the cool toys you get later in the game is the hoverboard. Press the R2 button to get it out whenever you want, no matter how unappropriate. Being a good game it has some bad things like the swearing which enables the kids to miss out and when you die next to the wall half of your body goes through it. Apart from those disappointments Jak II is a number 1 hit!
