my god this game is so unbelivable. it impresses the heck out of me. as a big fan of rachet and clank going commando i thought jak ii would be good. but jak 2 is way beyond going commando in every way imiginable. wow the worlds ciys and vistas you will see have artwork found in a brilliant painting. jak 2 is more pleasing to the eye more visaully outstanding than any game ive seen. the levels or should i say citysections are overwhelmingly huge and detailed. one of the best things is jaks personality hes the coolest characther ever. hes sharplooking real cool with an angry look on his face waiting to take care of buisness hes awesome. even daxter is signifigantly cooler now and more with it and also less annoying. jak talks this game too and the voiceacting is awesome. for those of you like me who thought the first was too childish. or didnt have enough action well jak 2 is your answer. jak 2 is an incredibly exciting more mature and action packed game then the first i love it. the vareity of gameplay is finally here in this futurustic mission. you get acess to 4 guns HUGE GUNS. not the toys that going commando featured. you get acess to a giant robot mech suit which is also completely awesome. theres even sections in the game were you can grind a pole on a hoverboard. and youll get an incredible breathtaking veiw of the city while doing it. and in addition to carjakking you also have a new vareity of collectables. but the collecting is not a nuisance as it was in jak and daxter 1. i had a blast with jak 2 and 100 percent encourage you to get it. people talk about it being frustrating i havent gotten mad this whole time. and all those worreid mothers who gave it a low score. hey common youre not rating it on the actuaul game. youre rating it on whether youre kids can play it or not. the little ones will just have to play the everyone games. because in truth the average gamer is between 14 and 33. so dont worry naughty dog youre pleasing people who know how to enjoy an excellent game. listen up though jak 2 is an outstanding non stop fun adventure packed joy ride of a game. and youd be apseouloutely empty to leave this out of your collection if you own a playstation 2.
" Best game ever"

This game is Fantastic that's all i can say, i mean you can highjack cars like grandtheft auto and you can get a hoverboard and grind on rails and things What more could you ask for righ?, wrong then comes in the gunplay the guns are pretty cool too and you can get upgrades for them. Jak has a lot of moves and to find them all you have to experamint with the bottons. For you cheaters out there, there are good codes for this game but that just lets you know how it feels when you beat a game without help. I think anyone who loves platformers/shooters you should definitly get your hands on this game. If you dislike the first Jak and Dexter game just like so many of us did, then you are going to think that you just won a million dallors with this game. Overall I think it is way better than the first and that you all sould pick it up.
a good game

its nice to see naughty dog is finally thinking. lets face it the first jak and daxter was kind of cheesy. jak looked like a 12 year old brat. the game wasnt exciting challenging or action packed in any way. thats why im glad it sponned a terrific seqeul. the worlds are about 10 times bigger the graphics and art work are outstanding. jaks personality is darker more objective and more hateful i love it. and this time around he finally talks. and the game has changed this time around better especially in the gameplay aspect. jak 2 offers a breathtaking load and vareity of gameplay. the hoverboard sections where jak skates were so cool. theres so much air gliding n grinding the missions are intense and the veichle jacking is cool. not only that the characther ai is very good this time around. and the bad guys dont just play dumb anymore waiting to get hit they fight. the swiftness agility and action that jak posses during a mission is exceptional. not only that jak has 4 guns in his arsenal now unlike before when you had no guns. if youre a fan of rachet and clank going commando you will probally love jak 2. because jak 2 is so much cooler than the pathetic execuse the first game was.
Jak and daxster THE SEQUAL !!!

This is one of the best ps2 games ever made, I would say it is the best game ever made but it only compares to mario kart double dash. This 2ed person shooter game has awsome graphics, a great plot, and new and old characters from Jak And Daxster The Precursor Legacy. The game starts after Jak and Daxster find the precursor ring. Jak starts it up and the get snet to the future and the green sage keria and Jak all get seprated. Jak is then arrested and daxter barley escapes. Jak is sent to th baron and is zapped with dark eco and becomes Dark Jak. 3 years Later Jak comes to bust him out and the escape the barron and gets a gun to destroy metal heads with. Overall this a fun game and any fan of the first would love it.
Great Game

Jak 2 is an excellent game. Compared to Jak and Daxter, Jak 2 is grittier, darker, and more difficult. This game is a superb platformer for the PS2.
The controls are tight and precise, missions are challenging, the storyline is engaging, and the graphics are stunning.
That being said, this is NOT the original Jak and Daxter. It took a little getting used to hearing Jax talk, and not having a whole slew of things to collect in each area of the game was a little dissapointing.
The game is much more linear than the first. Sure, you are allowed to go anywhere you want, but missions must be accomplished more or less in order.
There are two things that detract from this bieng a perfect game: 1-the city is so freakin huge. There is no quick and easy way to get around it. Even a couple of warp gates would have been nice. 2-restart points in the missions are frustratingly far apart. Yeah, it increases the difficulty, but also the player's annoyance level.
OVERALL--Great game. Highly reccomended.
At the top of my list; next to SOCOM, MA:Gits & R&C

It's classic, shoot 'em up, zany Jak action. Tis game is insanely funny and zany. The right amount of fighting with a pinch of Fun and Funny characters, there is no game more fun than MA:GitS or SOCOm, but this comes in a very very close, photo finsh 2nd place, thatere is no game comparible to Jak, except for MA:GitS, Socom & Tak and the power of JuJu.
Buy this game along with the 3 I mentioned to get your best gaming experiences ever!
JakII is worth every penny. Infact I would stake all of my possessions on it...
Coolest game I've Played

Well Jak's back alright. With a few things such as a morph gun,hoverboard,bad language,and an alter-ego that can kill almost anything in its path(once you get to a certain point in the game). The game is absolutely amazing. It rox cuz it ain't a short game like the previous one was. Also the mix with GTA and Tony Hawk are great making it easier to move faster and no more melee fighting cuz you got the gun with u(personally I like the Vulcan Gun). Though the things wich made it hard.Very hard. One,the missions are crazier than ever. You need to watch where you're going and who you're hi-jacking a zoomer. Two, the game's long and hard making it impossible to defeat a mission without playing the mission more than 4 times. And last but not least, the guards. Yes the gaurds who are everywhere you go watching you're every move and when you morph into Dark Jak.
