Jak and Daxter: The Lost Frontier

I'd been hearing rumors about this, then I quit keeping up with J&D, and now it's real: http://ps2.ign.com/articles/100/1007057p1.html

The story seems thrown together... and it's not Naughty Dog, but I still put in my pre-order for the Ps2 version. Amazon says it's coming December 2011, but I'll be out November 3rd.

Yeah, the world totally needs more Jak and Daxter.

The first game was a decent "me too" collecting platformer and the subsequent sequels tried (and failed) to capitalize on the GTAIII open-world formula.

Between the two totally average, but somehow insanely popular, PS2 platforming games that should die and stay dead, I'd rather play Ratchet & Clank. And that sh*t is as mediocre as it gets.

Well I'm probably a bit younger than you (18 ) so I really grew up with Naughty Dog. I know the Jak games aren't the best in the world, but I love the characters, the story, etc.

Hell, I'm 25 and I enjoyed the J&D games. Were they top of the line stuff? No, but they were definitely enjoyable, characters, story, all of it.
