Mediocre gameplay riddled with glitches is all players can expect from the newest Jak and Daxter title.
I suppose it's just a result of my generation, but platformers have always been my favorite genre. I started out with them, and grew up with them, until they were outcasted in this current generation. One in particular that held a special place in my heart was the original Jak and Daxter for the PS2. It had everything I loved about platformers: humorous characters, a ridiculous storyline, a bright colorful environment, plenty of things to kill, and something that I could collect. After the first, the series was taken in an entirely different direction, adding missions and guns to the formula, while removing the melee action and heavy collection elements.
