An Ecxiting, Addictive, and Fun Game!!!! | | A gamer says (21/Jun/2006): | Although this game is alot different from Jak and Daxter, it was really fun, ecxiting and acion packed. The missions were really fun and the graphics were better than some of the games I played. I wouldnt say it was a hard game, but it wasnt easy either. The events and characters are creative and cool. I also like how they found some places to slip alittle funny parts into this game (Particuly with Daxter). I think this is about my 3rd or 2nd favorite game. I like this game better than Jak and Daxter and Jak 3.
The missions were creative and fun to do. The fun missions continued to come and come (Especialy at the end) and after you beat on of these fun missions theres anotherone comeing right after it. That makes the game addictive and keeps you busy for a long time without getting board. Of coarse, without ecxiting events theres no reason wy your playing the fun missions.
The storyline is origional and creative. you really get into the story even when your not playing it. Sometimes I thought "WOW!, THIS IS THE FUTCHER!?" Or "I KNEW HE WAS A BAD GUY!!" and othertimes i just re-think the entire story of Jak in my head. It has a better story than most games. I think the story line is important. Thats why I dont like sport games or games without a story line.
These graphics are better than alot of other games. What an improvement! If you played Jak and daxter you probably noticed that the graphics are BAD!! These graphics are so much better and the detail is alot better!!
The Level of dificulty was just right. I didnt want a game that was so easy it doesnt even feel like your playing a game but i also didnt want it so hard that It was next to imposible to beat. This was perfect for me. Maybe some people prefer it harder or easier but I think this is just right. Besides if the mission is fun, why wouldyou be in a big rush to finish it?
I think the characters are also origional and creative. I like how they kept just a few characters from the first one and introduced alot of new characters. I also like the variety of character types: Stand-offish, tuff, fat, troble-making, stupid, annoying, scared, smart, Ect...
Although its a really acion packed game, they slip in some comedy. I like comedy so I liked the funny parts. If you dont like comedy, therse not to much of it but if you like it, theres enoghf to keep you satisfied.
This game isnt just for people like me, Its for alot of different people. If you like sport games, you get to do trickes on a hover-board, if you like adventure games, it is an adventure game, if you like comedy it has comedy, if you like useing guns, he uses a gun, if you dont you can punc

| good good stuff | | Matt from Diamond Bar, USA says (14/Apr/2005): | this game does have some problems where some of the missions are kind of hard but if you keep going at it, it gets very easy. i beat it in about a week but it was a nice week. the controls are funky and hard to memorize at first but you get used to them, like all other games. missions are nicely varied, you get to use some of each aspect of the game a little bit. i just wish there were more segments with the robot. the ending leaves something to be desired of as well. the last boss was not as innovative as the other bosses. you simply shot at him, ran for ammo, shot at him some more. and the dark jak of him was a great great aspect of the game, because you had some really POWERFUL powers to kick butt with. the problem with that is that sometimes there wasnt enough butt to kick with it. the zoomers in the game are quite annoying as well as they dont turn fast enough and the other zoomers in the air blend with the bg so you cant see them until you've hit them and died haha.
i dont feel people were being fair with the learning curve of this game. i caught on really fast, and usually, as soon as i caught on, i put it to use. and most of the missions simply require you to use your HEAD! and you gotta watch out of course. some of the best moments, are when the game is chasing you around and you're jumping across moving platforms, flaming platforms, and platforms that let you fall to your death. and you're just jumping and jumping, shooting, jumping, and then you die. but you laugh because it was challenging yet you were able to get through some of it and your mind was racing with what to do next. and you go at it again. those moments are the highlight of this game and there are enough of them to make it worth it.
| THIS GAME IS FUN BUT SOMETIMES HARD | | A gamer from USA,IRVINE,CA says (18/Dec/2004): | I think Jak2 is fun and very challenging at some parts. I'm only 88% done and stuck on that stupid game:METAL HEAD SMASH GAME. I also found out that once you beat the little game metalheads come out in the city whitch that would be cool. Although I'm a big fan of Jak2 I have to admit some parts are bad or too easy. Most of the bosses are at the end for you players who havent finished so dont be expecting any bosses if your in the middle of the game. Right now I'm just trying to get more orbs.
| A mind blowing game! | | Juan Esiqeil Olvera from Taft, Texas United States says (17/Dec/2004): | Jak2 is the best game I've played! The gameplay is just awesome and the graphics just rock. Surely this is one of the Naughty Dogs best creations! The 4 morph upgrades are neat as heck! If I got the chance I'd play it all day. Sure some parts are challenging but I just tried until I defeated the metalhead leader. the only downside is the grammer. Every mission is action packed, and challenging. Just the way I like it. People who don't understand the jak legecy and make a fuss about it are nuts to critisize Jak2. I can't wait till I get Jak3.
| same on you Naughty dog | | Dingodile from Scotland says (10/Aug/2004): | This was dissaponting. It is samefull to think that naughty dog made this,I mean the guys who made crash bandicoot made a big mastake now it is crap the graffics could be better that is mutch better than whate they have gave us how thw hell did it make platinum i hope that after the next game they stop think and ouit the seris because it sucks ok hers my rating you may not be inpressed.

FUN 6/10

| really disapointed | | Jenna F. from Dixonville,PA USA says (20/Jun/2004): | I'm sorry and I don't mean to offend anyone but I was really disapointed by this game. Those who are reading this and have never played this game don't buy it. I really liked the first one: Jak and Daxter the precursor legend. My dad rented the second game and when I played and saw it I was disgusted. I only played a bit of it and am ashamed that I played any. When I played Jak and Daxter I loved it and couldn't wait for a great sequel. Was I disapointed!!!!!! Jak 2 is nothing like Jak and Daxter! He's that freaky mutant thing and the whole dumb story is about revenge. I do not recomend this to anyone and really don't mean to offend anyone if they really like it but I didn't.
| if you liked this game your a nerdy lozer | | alex sanders from albany georgia says (31/May/2004): | this game is a bunch of crap. you can beat this retarded game in less than a day. i wouldn't waste my time playing this stupid game.the jokes are lame and the the people don't even bleed.you only get four weapons and i wish that stupid little rat Daxter would die!on that stupid little hover board piece of crap you can only do like 4 moves!. people should just play tony hawk or grand theft auto. if you have a hard time playing this game maybe you should just stick to mario bro. my little sister could beat this game. good graphics though.
| Jak 2 is the best game ever | | A gamer from Denver says (19/May/2004): | Jak 2 is by far the best game ever. I didn't really like Jak and Daxter that much because I was really bad at it and I wasn't that excited when Jak 2 came out, but when I watched my brother play it I decided to give it a go and thought it was awsome and fell in love with it. The graphics were so much better than the first one. I thought the sound was fine to. The parts that made me like it even more was the fact that you got to race and do mind blowing thricks on the jet-bord and I love games that you can do things like that. Even though there are some hard parts and while I was stuck on them, it gave me something to think about and I eventually got past those hard parts. I think about this game most of the time even if I'm not stuck some where in this huge, fantastic game. I strongly suggest you buy this game.(Other wise your missing out!)
| Jak II What An Amazing Mix Of Platform, Shooting, Hoverbikes and Hit and Run Jak II Rules!!! | | baron some1 or other from Wales in the UK says (28/Apr/2004): | After what was an amazing adventures known as Jak and Daxter: the Precursor Legacy Jak gets thrown into the future with friends he begins another adventure that this time is the best ever.

U get 2 play as Daxter so u must get it im finishing now amd havenot even talked about racing hoverboards attack by crimson quards big i could go on but its the best get is all i need 2 say
| Awesome | | Anonymous from Wisconsin says (14/Apr/2004): | I read most of the other reviews and what some people said about it being hard is stupid. I'm only 13 and I beat it in a week. Than The second time I beat it in 3 days. The third time only took me a day. So for those of you who think it's too hard, stop complaining and try harder. And here is a helpful hint. When you have the blaster or the vulcan blaster jump then spin and fire (spin and fire at the same time). It will send a lot of blasts in all directions, but the shots find their way to enemies. It's more affective than the scatter gun beacause it attacks all sides, and it looks alot cooler.
| AWSOME, But a little to easy. | | Keagan from Coteau louisiana usa says (9/Apr/2004): | Im only at 112% but im sure ill get good at it sooner or later.By the end of tonight ill be at hero mode.I meen it cant be hard 113 orbs.Candy from a baby.And Dark Jak in invencibility mode,AWSOME.Me and my friend ar only 11 years old and we beat it.TWICE!!!!!!In about 1 month.My favorite part is when sig or anyone curses at you.This is to anyone complaining out there cause its to hard,IT GETS HARDER!!!Comeon i beat and i only have the IQ of a thumb tack J/J.We make straight A's and im in G/T.
| A helpful tip | | A gamer from New Jersey, USA says (30/Mar/2004): | This is for Sally from England...In order to beat the 5 Hellcat cruiser mission, try firing from a short distance. Using the vulcan (machine gun) fire from a mid distance. By this I mean not so close that the hellcat blowing up will hurt your vehicle, and not so far away that the hellcat will get away from you. Another advantage to being a little distanced from the hellcats is that the guards who are escorting the hellcats will not be close enough to be accurate. When the hellcat tries to escape, keep up with it with the vulcan blazing. After you down one, move on the next, ignoring the guards as you move on. If your zoomer is taking on too much damage, hijack another one. The key to this mission is driving. Drive fast yet careful through the city, this takes practice and patience. So don't give up, it tooke me about 5-10 trys before I finally beat this mission.
| Incredibly addicting | | A gamer from New Jersey, USA says (29/Mar/2004): | This is an awesome game! I enjoyed the first one, but found it a little too easy (I beat it in 2 days). This second installment is more my style, combining both an entertaining storyline and challenging missions. Although it takes patience to beat many of the missions, the satisfaction you get when you beat them is worth it. It's the difficulty that drives you to try harder. I'm about 95% through, I just have the Metalhead boss and the side missions undefeated. For those of you who are having difficulty, just be patient and keep trying. Eventually you'll come through.

| | turtle1293 from New Orleans,Louisiana says (28/Mar/2004): | Jak II is a little lame But I like the big shot graphics and they are so tight.It is a little hard.My sis NikaB86 thinks this game is no sweat but the part that she doesn't get is when that big tank comes after you and it follows you as the target then shoots you.It is kinda stupid.And we play this game when we are soooooooooooooooooooo bored. And i am so is in love with this game!She really likes this game too.You know what i'm saying?I know you do.i really know you do.
| Good game, kinda addictive 2! | | Carmen from Alabama, USA says (11/Mar/2004): | Jak 2 is a good game but it seems a little harder than the first one and is definitely different. The story mode is cool, graphics too, and it is fun. I've only 88% through it, stuck on the metal heads masher game, which I can't get a hold of. And don't think that this game is nothing else but punking the police, stealing cars, and the best part, getting away with it is the only thing you do, but you also have to test your brain too. If any have made it to the Onin game, you'll know what I mean, I've been seeing symbols in my sleep cuz it blew my mind and made me angry, lol.
But the only bad parts about the game are listed as followed: when you help the guys in the sewer, if you accidently hit them, they'll shoot you and beat you up. Second, a little too much crime, like the crimelord, or whatever that blob is Krew you have to work for, and last, people dissin you, Erol, even though they turned you (Jak) into what you are now (Dark Jak).
Before I leave, I would like to say, that Dark Jak is the coolest, man!
| hard | | sally from england says (10/Feb/2004): | i found this hard got to 50%,cant kill 5 space ships. anybody got any cheats other than collecting orbs. one for invincibility would be good. i think they should put cheats in the book,you pay out £40 for a game that i cant even finish. you dont have to look at the cheat,if you dont want to. bit of a con this game thought it was like jak 1,a lot harder for me.ok for the young ones, they can do games easier than this old girl (49)so would be greatful for any cheats. please not by collecting orbs

| | Victoria from Colonia, New Jersey, USA says (8/Feb/2004): | I think this was a great game. I normally dont have time to play playstation2, but for this game i made time. This is one of the most addicting games i've ever seen. I found my self almost missing the bus for work, staying up till 3 thinkin it's only 11, and juss seeing cruisers while walkin home at night. As a female, I think this game was great because it's not all about shooting and killing. It's like little missions u have to beat to advance. AND like alot reviews had said, it is difficult..but that just makes it more fun. Cause when u finally beat the game as i did today...u feel very proud... and now just wanting more. The graphics were awsome. Specially when he became dark jak. The cool thing is the videos can change whats in the background. Ive noticed other games cant do that. Some of the boss's took alot of patientce to beat..but their creation (how they look, and use their powers) is awsome. The story line is awsome, has suprises, and quite humorous. It also continued from the first one, which i found not as challenging. The sounds in the game were okay, because sometimes when u beat a mission and that walkietalkie guy comes up, u cant always understand it. But sound was an important part in the game, with diferent voices, gunshots, and different music for different backgrounds. I think it is very original because it makes u use all different skills u have aquired over your gaming years. Whether speed, sense of direction, navigation, hearing, aim, racing, hunting, and much more. It also had alot of different settings. The town, and then the doors that led somewhere outside the city, and then different areas that u need keys to access, and then u have the portals-to teleport. It makes the game very fun and addictive.
Overall i thnk this was a great, great game. I am actually sad i beat it because i have to find something new to do. haha..I hope the next Jak is as good and adventerous as this one was. I CAN'T WAIT TIL JAK 3 COMES OUT!!
| Too much rat-maze... too little invilvement | | Karim Perry from toronto, canada says (25/Jan/2004): | I LIKED Jak I... it was a very pretty NEW platform game... it had some 3-d camera quibles... and blind-siding problems... but it was well laid out and fun.. with many realistic and immediate goals.
JAKII ... ughh... the first third of the game is tiresome as hell... back and forth... back and forth... learn the maze, rat; naughty dog seems to be saying. Whoever in that team is hooked on GTA (grand theft auto) needs detox. Its one thing to drive some kind of vehicle around... its another to dry hump a whore while you're blasted. The controls of the game... sheesh... ive memorized less doing calculus. The game has ripped off every 'HOT' game in the past 2 years and not well.... they even ripped off they're own... same camera problems.... nasty hiding bad guys hitting you from blind areas... they should've just wrapped up some RUBY DICE IN PRETTY PAPER AND CALLED IT
CRAPS AND DICESTER
33% thru and then you get a 'boss'?? not even a good boss... like an afterthought... and the 'easter-eggs'??? loooook everywhere... there hiiiiden.... my ASS!!!!!! throw tacks in my face would be more subtle!

| Jak drives me II crazy | | A gamer from USA says (20/Jan/2004): | I've only been playing this game for a few days now, but I think I'm getting the jist of it. It is a good game. The graphics are good, the controls are good, the story is (like before) funny and entertaining. The one thing that kills it though is, IT IS TOO MUCH WORK! The one thing I stink at most in games is time trials, the next is racing, the next is escorts. That is about half this game. It drives me crazy! Sure, you get a minute of humor and a little time of bustin' bad guys, but then you're back in the city doing timed runs and getting shot at in bad driving vehicles! It can take me 30 to 45 minutes running their stupid trials.
