DESCRIPTION
This third game in Naughty Dog's PlayStation 2 series continues the adventures of the young hero Jak and his near-constant companion Daxter, a wise-cracking weasel-like creature. As Jak is exposed to the volatile substance known as "Light Eco," he gains the ability to change into "Light Jak," a form that balances the "Dark Jak" persona that served him so well in Jak II.
When this third game begins, through an ironic twist, Jak has come to be mistrusted by the people of Haven, because of the same Dark Eco powers that had helped him to save their city in the previous game. Along with Daxter and their new companion Pecker, Jak is banished to the vast, dangerous, mysterious island known as "Wasteland." It is here that his third adventure begins in earnest.
Wasteland is designed to be the largest, most varied world yet featured in a Jak game — five times the size of Haven City — so once again, players may want to seek out various vehicles they can "borrow" in order to get from place to place. The game runs on a revamped engine that now incorporates "rag-doll" physics. ~ T.J. Deci, All Game Guide

“Excellent sequel. This one takes everything from Jak II and expands heavily on it, resulting in a new eco system and powers and tons of new weapons. Plotwise this game is a lot more epic in scope, though still told with the same sort of witty...”
“Excellent sequel. This one takes everything from Jak II and expands heavily on it, resulting in a new eco system and powers and tons of new weapons. Plotwise this game is a lot more epic in scope, though still told with the same sort of witty nature as before. The inclusion of two overworlds in Haven City and the Wastelands was also a great addition. This game also has a few moments of legit drama, which is something Jak II almost lacked, despite its well-written characters. Things like that make this one more compelling storywise and overall a satisfyingly large-scale conclusion to what Jak II started. (owned and completed, accurate score is 8.75) ”

“The epic finale to the trilogy, and what a big bang it was. Everything was closed up quite well and Naughty Dog was wise to end it at this title. I won't mention the next title, although it was great for platforming the story... I'll stop there... Jak 3 was good, end of story.”

“Better than 2, not as good as 1. It's the unfortunate truth in most trilogies, and this is no exception. It improved on 2 in every way, bringing some light back into the series, and wrapping up countless loose ends in the process. Even the characters got better. But, a worthwile entry, and we thank Naughty Dog for bringin' in, as they usually do. ”

“Run around shoot stuff and jump on things. It's amazing how the first game was a kid's platformer. It's like Naughtydog knew that their original fanbase would grow into violence loving teens.”
