Jak and Daxter

Is this old enough to be retro...
old enough in horse years...

At one point in my existence I was like five years old and was not yet corrupted
by the bleakness of life, it was Christmas and in a neatly wrapped box was a
shiny, new Playstation 2 ,a copy of Jak and Daxter and some crappy 3d frogger game. Upon opening it, I said "What is it?" as it was my first games console.

So, the game starred with two troubled making kids sneaking on a forbidden island
that there elder told them not to go to, and one of them fall into it pit of a substance called
"Dark Eco" and being morphed into an orange ferret like creature, and you have to
collect 100 pieces or oracle technology
Anyway, to the game itself. This game was one of the only good 3d platformers
to fallow the death of Rare, which in my opinion was the start of why games today are
so... much alike... I like FPSs and all but I need a bit of creativity...
This game had beautiful graphics, and people were impressed by how semi-open-world
it was, you could pretty go anywhere... There is snowy mountains, crystal caves, and and a big
bird you can ride! the platforming is fun and the fighting is fun, the environments are realistically
laid-out, the characters are creative, and best of all there is this one step in the first level that you always trip over.

This game is one of the ten best games on the ps2 and one of my personal top ten games
of all time, this my parcially be because of the good memories attached to it, even though if you have a ps2 and you haven't played it yet... DO SO... or you could pick up a copy of the
89/100 stars
