I thought that the Jak + Daxter series was alright, it had a good, but complex, storyline after the first game. Kinda hard to follow, lots of time paradoxes and such. I like ho they incorporated the eco-guns in the second/third ones. Using raw eco in the first ones kinda sucked cause you had to use it near its naturally occuring sourcing, it was available mobily. in 2/3, you darg the guns anywhere. That, and you can throw in kick and spin combos while firing your guns for a shrapnel-kinda effect on all nearby enemies. The PEACE-MAKER was BY FAR the best gun through out 2/3, it shoots of a charged ball of dark-eco electricity and spawns of from the first hit target and arcs off to damage all enemies near him, only downside to it was that you only had 10 shots so you had to make them count 9 But i think they toned down the damage it could do against the final boss in 2 cuz I tried using it the whole timeand it didn't do shit) but other than that its great.

The Peacemaker was definitely NOT the best gun in the series. The bests guns were the Blaster Mod (in Jak II) and the Beam Reflexor (Jak 3).

The Peacemaker wasn't obtained until the last part of Jak II, and the only real uses were fighting Krew, and Metal Kor.

Sure its cool and all, but the Yellow and Blue Red Eco guns were much better. Even the Vulcan Fury had some use.

I LOVED the Vulcan Fury Barrel, it had the accuracy of a sniper rifle and the rapid fire action of a machine gun, but the scope laser was tilted up so the onluy real accuracy you could have would be shooting up hill. But I thought the vehicles of Jak 3 were freakin outrageous, theres nothing better there blasting around with a tricked out, super-sized go-kart in the wastelands takin out metalheads.

[Mizagium]

Hell yeah! The Wasteland was a much better area to explore than Haven City.

I still haven't finished the game, though. the Light Jak powers seem kinda out of place.

[jAkE sMiTh is [Br]eaking [Ba]d]

Well the Light Jak powers are completely opposite of Dark Jak powers, they Con-structive instead of de-structive (Healing, sheilding, time stopping, flying vs. Dark bomb, dark giant, dark absorb etc.). its the 'better' side of Jak...

[Mizagium]

Yeah I know, but Light Shield, Light heal, Light uhh time Stop, and Light Flight are all vastly inferior to Dark Bomb and Dark Blast.

[jAkE sMiTh is [Br]eaking [Ba]d]

Well yea but they 'needed' a balance to it, so they went Light Jak. Lets talk about the awesomness of Bioshock for 360! MOST KICK-ASS GAME FOR 360 EVER!!!!!!!!! There are so many freakin combinations during and out of combat, its one of the most realisticly optional games so far as fighting things goes. And the freakin environment was nuts, 30,000 feet under the atlantic?! If yer in a haunted house with ghosts you can just walk outside and everythings okay, but if yer trapped under the ocean on the sea bed, theres no escape! (Actually6 thats probably why the entire game is based on you fidning the ride to the top) I love how they introduced the concept of guns on the R-Trigger and plasmids (genetic powers) on the L-Trigger, makes for AWESOME combos and the flick of a switch, literally! Plus the Little Sister and Big Daddy concept was greta kill the dragon to get the treasure as it were, and then once you killed the Big Daddy and you've got the Little Sister cornered you can decide on whether to take the good path ( 'Save' them from the parasite inside them that makes 'em evben and homocidal sadists) or the evil path ('Harvest' the parasite by reaching down their throat and yanking it out, obviously killingf them in the process). Its just a really great game in general, haven't beat cause I don't own the 360 i was playin it on, but trust me it comes HIGHLY recommend by both me and a virtual legion og gamres across the nation...

overall the game collection as a whole was good, though i never beat the first one because i thought it was dumb (note i was like 9). then they tried to go to psp and failed. the mini games were cool.

[jAkE sMiTh is [Br]eaking [Ba]d]

I don't recall anything but Daxter goin on the PSP, but yea I never played it either, gotta 360 for x-mas and beat Bioshock on easy in 6 hours.
