There are too many trophies for trivial achievements, and it negates any sense of accomplishment from their collection.Ĭonsidering three games in a single package makes for a difficult reviewing process. Oddly, they arrive perhaps too quickly and easily in certain areas. Those who already have the PlayStation 2 versions and who aren't wooed by the singular promise of greater resolutions need not apply.Īnother minor problem comes in the form of trophies. Other than the facelift, the games aren’t embellished in any way. If it’s a criticism at all, it’s perhaps just a little disappointing that there’s nothing new here. It's not nearly as clear whether anything at all has been done in terms of sound, but the repetitive nature of the sounds and music is such that any improvements would either be minor enough not to be easily noticed, or would be seen as a major negative for returning players. As a result, the original style remains unchanged, but simply looks better. The character models haven’t been altered in any immediately noticeable way, but the smoothing of curves and the textures themselves are much more defined. It's a small change, but it can be surprisingly disorienting.Īs is to be expected, HD overhaul is immediately apparent, but done in such a way that the games are still recognisable. The games are still using the PlayStation 2-standard of assigning triangle as the "back" button instead of circle as most PlayStation 3 game do. The menu controls may require a cognitive shift too. It’s always possible to reach, but the game doesn’t always explain how until much later. On occasion, the game will present you with a seemingly impossible task. Being of a time before the modern spate of shooters introduced regenerative health, players will also need to uncover healing pickups, something that necessitates a small change in approach.Īlso hailing back to an era where games didn’t always nurse the player through are a handful of situations featuring a frustrating difficulty spike. Even though the game is generous with health, and most enemies will die in one hit, they never feel utterly trivial. The cartoon aesthetic might imply the games are intended for children, but even experienced gamers will find challenge enough to slow them down at times.

The difficulty curve also distinguishes the series from many of its peers. The basic mechanics remain the same however, so players can pick up any game in the trilogy safe in the knowledge the controls will be familiar. The core mechanics are carried from one game to the next, but each adds new abilities, and introduces slightly different creatures and vehicles. By Jak III, the world is brightened up in some ways, but there are more shades of grey to the morality of the world.Īlong with the graphical direction and the story, the gameplay changes between games. Jak II takes darker twist, and relies Daxter to be the key light-hearted element to the game.

Precursor Legacy boasts an outwardly cutesy and fun graphical style, full of vibrant colour and even many of the enemies are cheerful and cartoonish. The Jak and Daxter games in particular demonstrate this: each game in the series has a distinctly different tone from its predecessor. Both the Crash Bandicoot series and its PlayStation 2-era Jak and Daxter titles have grown up with the console gaming industry even as many gamers have grown up with them.
