Highly recommended. This game is simply the best platformer imaginable on the PSP. I would lobby that Daxter should be the PSP's premiere platform mascot. Awesome fun game. Even after finishing it I *still* want to go back and play more...

daxter psp was an awesome game...and I say "was" because I beat it in like 3 days.....unlike the other Jak games that took me much much longer. That is one of the bad things about this game [that it is very easily beaten]....but I (personnally) play the game over and over because I never get board of it!

The Best Action/Adventure Game on the PSP

I own a PSP and let me tell you, not too many games hold my interest like Daxter because one; the graphics are not very impressive, two; the controls seem too complicated and three; there is no story line, it's just a random map with enemies to kill. Daxter does the opposite of all of these, the graphics are amazing, the controls are flawless and the story actually works and ties in to the Daxter games on the PS2. This is a must own game for the PSP because there arn't many worth purchasing, but this one is one.

Absolutely Love this game

After reading some reviews I decided to purchase this title. Need I say it definitely lives up to the hype. Graphics, gameplay, level design, and everything else about this game is top notch, no doubt about it. You can feel the great effort that went into this game with every turn, move, and action that happens. It's charming and also has a great sense of humor. There are certain parts that made me start cracking up, and I'm 31 years old. I'm amazed how the PSP handles this game without overheating b/c the graphics are intense. Characters are well animated and very creative. Voice acting is great also. So far I'm about 30% complete and I'm absolutely hooked. The only negative thing I can say is sometimes the camera angles get a little screwy but nothing that really becomes bothersome. Extremely happy with the purchase and you will be too. Don't hesitate in buying this game you won't be sorry. A blast to play and worth the money. Close to perfect as you can get.

Daxter has great gameplay...but whats the story about?

This game is overall very fun with lots of different areas and some fun extra things. The areas have amazing graphics and gameplay is fun from driving vehicles to finding precursors (little egg-shaped things that allow you to unlock special things if you collect enough of them). I love the dream sequences where you press buttons as creatures approach and these can also unlock costumes or special combo moves. This game has hours of gameplay because even after you beat the final boss you can still find the last precursors, replay levels, or try to get a gold trophy in a dream sequece. This game would especially appeal to fans of Mario as it is a platform-jumper and is not like many of the shoot-em-up PSP games.

However, with every great thing there is a flaw. This games plot sucks. Why do you become an exterminator anyway? And there should be another boss as the "final one" says his boss will "meet you outside" but you never fight this guy. Many of the missions you go on are fun but Sony does not show a point to them. Most areas you go to are for the exterminators profit. The main character (Daxter) doesn't even remember his friend was captured until late in the game!

Overall while the playing is fun, immersive, and long-lasting (about 25 hours to do the main game but you can still do a couple extra things) the story is terrible. But, I would still recommend buying the game as you can just not pay attention to the story at all.

Fun especially on a small scale.

With the advancement of handheld game systems one thing is for sure. Some games on a small handheld system are just too dificult to play. However Daxter is the perfect example on how to make a great game just as enjoyable in small scale as large. Immediately you will notice the superb 'Animation like' graphics and great intermissions. If you liked the previous versions of this game series then you will love Daxter. I can't get my girlfriend to give it back!! :)

amazing

i become never bored with this game.
a cute character, delicate description, gradual learning of skills.
But due to my unskillfulness, sometimes i have to try more than 30 times to pass through one stage.
Still, it is my most favorite psp game.

Very Good Game...

...but i actually enjoyed the new Ratchet & Clank PSP game more then i did Daxter.

It was a tie for the 2 games. I picked up Daxter & the new PSP Ratchet both on the same day, same purchase. I am not gonna say why the other is better or anything like that. But Daxter is a great game with plenty of things to do. A game of this epic scope its kinda hard 2 really enjoy it as much as you would have enjoy it if it was on your big screen TV. Its alittle hard 4 me 2 accept it on a small PSP screen. But overall i am pleased with my purchase. Conisdering the game was not designed by the original creators. They did a great job of creating an excellent adventure game title from a legendary series. Unlike the crew that developed Spyro & Crash after the owners jumped ship. Those 2 mascots are in desperate need of a GOOD make over.

I love Dexter!

Late last year, who were surprised by Jak's gaming change, from
a dramatic trilogy, to an intense driving game. Some liked it s-
uch as I, and some hated it. But now, Ready At DawnTM has made a
stand-up leading to the complex plot of Jak II.

If you've played Jak II, we land on an odd enviroment, Haven Ci-
ty. But when Jak is arrested by Erol, WE NOW follow him. A old
man almost meets the same fate as Jak but Daxter leaps and make
the Guard fall on the base. It is then revealed as Osmo. The e-
ccentric old codger is the owner of The Kritter Ridder Extermin-
ation Shop, he comes from a long line of Exterminators.
We will also meet vixen, Taryn. Which will be Daxter's right h-
and girl in some hard locations in Daxter's large adventure.
We will meet Ximon, Osmo's kid. He's better surfer than Exterm-
inator! And masters one of the many vehicles Dax will use...
Daxter has a conspiracy with Kaedan, he's kinda ugly with sharp
eye brows but what's ugly is the eyes... But if you buy the game
you will know him better.
You will meet Jak II and Jak 3 characters such as Count Veger
and Errol. And it will mention Krew seldom times. But as you fi-
ght Metal-Bugs in this wonderful ride of beauty and through the
eyes of the loudmouth Ottsel, there's sure to be lots of sidesp-
litting laugh cause we know Dax does not get alone with old men
like Samos the Sage of Green Eco. But there is few worlds, ther-
e's the Lumbermill, but I've beat the game today. But I'm trying
to prevent spoilers.
But if you plan to check more info on DaxterTM on its playstati-
on website, DON'T! it's resourceful with more characters, your
arsenal of extreme weapons and vehicles, but the downloads and
secret vault are rip-offs. But just for the scoop on the plot...
check it out!
