"The nonexistent load times, unlimited draw distance, and non-linear level design go far to
establish Jak & Daxter as a classic, but there could have been more innovation to cement its
position." Review by Barak Tutterrow with screen shots.

"The camera is sometimes unwieldy, and for some bizarre reason can only be rotated around Jak,
not moved vertically, though there is a first-person view that lets you look around. Beyond that,
however, Jak and Daxter is an excellent example of a 3D platformer." Review by Jason D'Aprile
with screen shots.

"There's no loading time, ever, and you can always see some part of the map, fully animated,
from where you currently are. It's a neat trick that isn't fully realized until you a few hours
into playing." Review by Dangerboy.

"From one end of the world you might be able to see a mountain top, and after five hours of
play you might be on that mountain top looking back to your original position. Never before has a
world been so complete, so connected, and so full. Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy is sure to
be a game that makes you glad to own a PS2 or makes you go get one, because this game finally makes
the PS2 worth owning." Preview by Sarah Wichlacz with screen shots.

"[It] has as set a new benchmark for the platformer genre with its huge environments and

"It's the antics of Daxter rather than the challenge of jumping and climbing the environment
that draws me to want to return to it I?m sure for many experienced players it will be the same.
Younger players (those with only a passing acquaintance with Crash, Banjo, Spyro and friends) will
love it and more than likely drive their parents crazy with the game's hyper assault of jump and
punch effects." Preview by Kristopher Abel.
