Since I just finished Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy for the PS2, I thought I'd give a few of my thoughts. I might do a more in-depth review for The Critical Angle later, but you'll get the gist from this.
I picked up Jak and Daxter off ebay, seeing it as a logical progession from the awesomeness that is Ratchet and Clank. I would say I still prefer RaC, but it was pretty good. It was a little infuriating at times, and really could have done with more checkpoints, but it was a lot of fun when I wasn't tearing my hair out. One thing I would say is it's a lot shorter than I was expecting. When I reached the final boss I was quite surprised to be there so soon. The story is pretty simple, and the characters are pretty good. I'm not always a fan of mute heroes, because they generally have less personality, but Daxter was a laugh and the two had a good dynamic (and one of the best victory dances ever)
If you're looking for a good 3D platformer and you've already played RaC, I'd recommend picking this up if you can find it cheap.
