who knew a jak racing game can be this good?

This game was really surprisingly good. I must admit ,at first I thought this game wouldn't be really good, but it really exceeded my expectations. The game begins when jak , daxter and their friends are invited for the reading of Krew's will. (Krew was the big fat guy from jak 2 .)When they get there, they meet his daughter, Rayn. she pours everyone some drinks , so they'll have a toast for krew. After they all finish drinking, Rayn plays Kre's will. He appears as a hologram , and he informs everyone that the drinks they just had have been poisoned!(He even poisoned his own daughter). He says that his associates will give them the antidote only if they win the Kras city championship race (since it was his dream to win this championship), so jak and his friends are forced to race for him.

Now , through the entire game , you don't just drive one car. There are 12 cars you can drive , and you can fully customize them , and replace their body parts. You can change their front fenders, rear fenders , trunks , wheels , and more. You can earn more body parts by winning races. You can even change the color of your car, and tune it's performance.

One good addition to the game is the expanded secrets menu. You can get tons of secrets(by buying them with money you get from winning races),such as extra accesories for your car , extra movies, extra characters to drive with , etc. It's all just real awesome.

There are three modes you can play , multiplayer (which includes online and local modes),adventure, in which you play as jak and advance through the storyline , and exhibition , where you can shoose different characters to play with(all of which have different attributes and characteristics) , and you can race in any track and in any type of race for money.

The jak series has always been known for their variety. And this aspect returns here too. The game has normal races , where you have to just finish a number of laps around the track , but there are also tons of other game modes , like death match , where you just have to destroy the other racers,sport hunt , where you have to kill a bunch of monsters , death race, where you have to shoot as many cars as you can(not real racers, but weak smaller cars) and many , many more.

Now , about the pick-ups. There are 4 types of pick-ups here. One is health , which simply heals you car. The other is turbo , which let's you use a turbo boost . The third is a weapon power up which lets you use forward - facing weapons , such as machine guns , missiles , etc. And the last one is backward - facing weapons , such as mines , oil streeks , etc.

This game is a really awesome game. Don't worry about the fact it's a racing game.

This game is so sick. I haven't played it online yet. I don't have a network adapter... I got my friends in to it, though. There's a dvd being awarded out to people who win this contest @ jakxdvd.com for a demo of JakX and a 90 min. movie related to the Jak & Daxter games, 1-3. JakX beats MarioKart any day of the year. I already unlocked a grip of the characters. I like how they made it possible to hook up to the Daxter PSP game to unlock extras that way. They thought ahead. Very good multiplayer game.

well PROBABLY the most action game i played

The game is great. It picked up nicely from Jak3. The graphics is great, the story is great, the voice overs are great. 5/5, HOWEVER, it doesn't really have great gamplay value. It's much more enjoyable to play online because it'll end up feeling like a new game each time you join a lobby. Playing online can be addicting.

spinners!?

I would buy this game just for putting spinners on a dune buggy thing. on the other hand this game is pretty fun for the first hour or two. Then it gets a little repitive. It is cool that you can get ratchet and the jak from the other jaks as well. some of the competitions are cheap though, such as the artifact race where the artifacts pop right up next to the opponents. the costomization is pretty deep too.

Buy jak x or i'll poison you

I had the pleasure to be one of the beta testers for this game. This game is totally awesome and it has great characters. Fun for all ages (teen and up). I recommend this game for anyone looking for a killer, challenging racing game that allows you to blow stuff up. REMEMBER: First place is NOT the safest place to be!!!
