Its identical nature to "Jak 2" may leave a nasty taste in the mouth, especially given that this is the send-off to the comical pair.
90
Daxter's shtick notwithstanding (he hasn't made me laugh since the middle of last year's adventure) Jak 3 stands tall and proud as a testament of what polished gameplay and cutting-edge graphics can do when the host system's Emotion Engine is maximized.
90
Despite the sweet new weapon upgrades and other new features, Jak 3 didn't have the same impact on me as "Jak II" because it wasn't as fresh - it feels a little too much like extra "Jak II" chapters. It's still great, don't get me wrong - but maybe not as mind-blowingly fantastic as what came before. [Nov 2004, p.70]

Juegazo, tal y como lo recordaba. Muy adelantado a la época en la que salió

Tocaba rejugar a esta saga después de años sin hacerlo. He disfrutado mucho cada uno de ellos, aunque el 3 es el que menos me ha gustado sigue siendo un juego absolutamente redondo en todos los aspectos.

Stunning graphics, an amazing range of highly imaginative and sprawling locations, endless variety, engaging and challenging gameplay, loads of mini-games, cool weapons, super powers, vehicles, races, a grand and exciting storyline, great music, superb voice acting and plenty of humour- did I forget anything?

The graphics are buoyed by the exceptional voice acting for the characters in the game.

I thought the graphics and gameplay were the 2 most outstanding features of the game.

At times, Jak 3 seems to be scraping the bottom of the idea barrel...While this final chapter is not the platforming clinic of the first, nor the trendsetter of the second, it is an extremely satisfying finish for the series.
75
Aside from the occasional piece of ropey responsiveness from the game engine, Jak and Daxter's moves are among the slickest on any console.
50
For all it's technical wizardry, a game is only as good as its gameplay, and that portion of Jak 3 just doesn't measure up.

Jak 3 is the perfect ending to a legendary saga. I highly recommend playing this trilogy at least once in your life. Now I'm going to try its spin-offs like Daxter, Jak X, and The Lost Frontier.

Su mundo se siente vivo al igual que sus personajes, también son muy carismáticos. Gran arsenal de armas con las cuales puedes combinar y matar a los enemigos de manera creativa. El movimiento de jak es más ágil aún que sus dos anteriores. **** 11 horas y 14 minutos en completar la historia y la disfruté mucho.

Un final adecuado para la trilogía que expande en algunas mecánicas e introduce conceptos que, con la intención de ser novedosos, realmente se quedan en aparatejo estético. Es como una serie de capítulos perdidos del Jak II tanto en trama como en mecánica y no innova tanto como sus antecesores.

This game has allot of improvements over the 1st game but some down grades aswell. The downsides are this game is full of pointless time trials and races. All the time they slap a timer on something even if it makes no sense to do so. Time trials are fine at certain times like say your running out of an exploding building. They are not fine when it's just a mission where your running lifts for people. I've never been a fan of racing in games that aren't race focused but this game has so many races that it gets annoying. The 2nd game had a few but Jake 3 has loads more. Driving throu the desert is just annoying. With these other cars constantly ramming you yet we have no idea who they even are. There is now loads more orbs and skull gems which have made them feel less rewarding to collect. Also this game is perfect if you don't like playing as Jak because you barely ever use him. Your always driving or piloting something or other. You can literally forget your playing a Jak game. I don't mind this missions when there is a couple of them but when every other mission involves controller something it becomes over saturated and boring. It's like playing a racing game but spending most of your time walking round. You probably can't even put this game in the platformer genra because there is barely any platforming. Light eco is over powered. With the ability to heal yourself and deploy a shield around you. This makes all combat way to easy.
Improvements are that the new guns are cool. The difficulty spikes still aren't perfect but they are much better then before. The story in this game is also good and is well portrayed. I personally prefer 2 but thats subjective. It's overall an easier game then the 2nd which I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing. I personally like a challenge but this game is a bit more accessible. Overall I prefer the second game. Jak 3 is still a good game but the second game overall had better combat and more time playing as Jak. I don't like missions playing as something else as this game has far to many of them.
SummaryOne year has passed since Jak and Daxter saved Haven City from Kor and the attacking Metal Heads, yet Haven City is still immersed in deadly chaos as three groups fight for control of the streets. The people of Haven City have grown to distrust Jak's dark powers, and as rumors boil of Jak's ties with Krew and Kor, the city blames Jak for... Read More
