First M. Aviles Why don't you shut up because there is nothing you can do to me and what can you do, text attack me. That is so noobish. Also you need to learn how to spell you little bastard. Anyway, my brother is going to type now. Hey, my name is Kai and as you know i said i was going to get to the review. Now lets get started shall we. First jak isn't the end of the jak trilogy, a fourth chapter of the game will be coming out (look at your nearest blockbuster, thier games come out early). Second, the gameplay is O.K, its like medium, not to hard and not to easy. Third, the gun switch is ok( i didn't say great because it sometimes gets frustrating). Fourth there are 12 guns you get to choose from and one ultimate destroyer, The Super Nova. The super nova is an upgrade to the peacemaker, all of the four guns have upgrades thats what makes it 12. Also you get some guns early, like i got the blaster gun on the first or second level. Then there is Jak's powers, as you know there was dark jak in the second chapter, now there is light jak who is very cool, he has light flight, flash freeze, light regeneration and light shield. Dark jak only has one new feature and thats shadow invisibility. Shadow invisibility is where jak turns invisible by a certain statue (based on what the book said). Also they have jak 3 stratigy guides, so if you need help or can't pass a level, buy one. I have the whole jak kit, stratigy guide and game. Also the story line is good to understand, jak got thrown into a wasteland because the citizens said he caused the trouble in thier city and because of his dark power. Now he has to travel the wasteland in great varieties of dune buggies and work for this guy, don't know his name. He has to work for him and save the city once again. Also this game is too short, i beat it in 12 hours. So if you are interested in this game, get it now. Also, not being mean but its rated t for teen, but you can get it anyway, i'm not like my brother. Bye, see ya later. P.S you will see me in other reviews.

Great Game But Beat Jak 1 & 2 first

Sorry about My 1st Review I fixed the mistakes. Here is the Review without the mistakes and more.

While all the jak games are exellent it isn't the same without beating them in order. Yes Jak 2 is hard but it reveals so much about jak 1. Jak 3 does the same for Jak 2. Beat them in order so it dosen't ruin the story for you. The story is exellent better than Ratchet and Clank's. I like the gameplay better than R&C's too. Jak 3 is the 2nd Best jak game in my opinion. Jak 2 is definatly the best jak game so far. The Precursor Legacy is over but the Jak games are not. There is some news about a Jak 4 in the work's. This game has more guns than Jak 2 and less fustrating missions. This game has great graphics the best of any jak game. The replay value is increased by the precursor orbs, the gun courses, and the little missions. This is the Best RPG series on the PS2. By Texx

Just another disapointing racing game.

I knew I was in trouble when Jak states, near the beginning of the game, "One thing I can do is race!".

And that's what JAK III is - race after race after race. Want to proceed in the game? You have to race. Want to proceed in the game after that? Another race. So on and so on and so on and so on.

Normally I wouldn't mind so much, but with JAK II you MUST complete racing games in order to progress with the rest of the game. Thus, if you cannot finish the racing game you CAN NOT continue with rest of the game.

I'm glad I rented this one instead of buying it. If you don't like racing games, don't bother with JAK 3.

Jak 3 was awesome! My cousin is a naughty dog employee. JAK 4 is next! He said that in Jak 4 it starts out by Jak seeing a light in the sky from naughty ottsel, jak follows the light and finds Damas (his father) regenerating. Same thing as light regeneration. Damas falls to the ground. Will the Jak family be reunited once more? Find out!

Best of the 3

Jack 1 was fun. Jack 2 was a bore. Jack 3 Rocks.

Same battles, same missions, different title.

This game was beaten in a month's time. Now don't get me wrong -it wasn't easy. There were times I wanted to kick myself for messing up so many times lol. And there were times I wanted to kick the game!

The problem with this game is that it's too much of the SAME thing: SAME battles, same missions, same people. The only thing that was different was the location and how everything has changed.

When Jak does get kicked out and into the Wastleland, he does have certain trials to make it clear to this Wastlelanders that he is "useful". Honestly, I've never seen that in a game - original.

I'm a fan of vibrant colors and Jak and Daxter (the first one) had a lot of that, but this one didn't so I was kinda taken off. Overall the game was really dark and depressing.

Personally, this game just seemed like a chore to me..sometimes it felt like an adventure, but it was just a huge chore, I couldn't wait to get rid of all the missions to finally get to the end. It was just one mission after another (with barely any exploring missions).

So overall, I wouldn't get the game - that is only if you are interested in completing the three games. But just expect the same thing with a little twist.

AWSOME!!!! MOST FUN OUT OF ALL THE TRILOGY.

Im very glad i bought this game. It is very fun.The first game was the easiest. Still fun though. The second game was the hardest. Still fun also. But , the third game was the most fun and it was at a medium range of difficultness. If you are looking for a game that is long i would just rent it though.

PROS:
- the game was very fun
- it took longer than the first game to beat
- you get a bigger selection of guns
- you get a huge selection of vehicles to ride throughout the desert
- you still have your hoverboard
- daxter is in it . (of course) and very funny
- you get to choose between dark jak and light jak

CONS:
- not a very long-lasting gamegame
- some timed missions were frustrating

greatest game iv'e ever seen

i must say , i think this game is the best one iv'e seen yet . it has everything you want in it, platforming , action , adventure, and a great storyline . you have a lot of weapons in this game and alot of different vehicles to drive. i cant list them all here , there are too much .also , about the adventure ,you have alot to explore. that includes the wasteland and haven city , which are both VERY huge environments with alot of different levels in them .it also has a big replay value . also fans of the previous games will like to know that in this game you find out who the precursors really are. it's really great when you find out , but i wont tell you who they are because i dont want to spoil the game. it also has alot of great characters , both old and new . and the graphics! they are WONDERFUL! i cannot describe how great they are ! such beauty and such detail! it's also great how realistic everything is .i mean , in some of the vehicle missions ( which are really fun, by the way ) if you fall with a car off of a cliff , it's great to see how it falls around and rolls around down. and in one mission , where you have to fight some huge monsters(metal heads) with one of the cars , if one of them hits you really hard your car flies around really far really fast . this is very cool , and you have to see it for yourself to really see how nice this is. also one thing i liked is the ragdoll physics . when you hit an enemy , it falls down to the ground in a very realistic way. each enemy has a unique "type" of fall when you hit it or kill it .overall , i think this a the greatest game i know and my favorite one ,and the only problems with it are that it's a bit shorter and easier than jak 2 , but that really didn't bother me . so , if you want a very fun game , buy this. no ps2 game collection is complete without this .

The crap, the cool and now...

...the excellent. This game is like perfect. And with Jak PSP and Jak X on the way, this will definetly always be the best one. 12 guns, Haven City and a huge wasteland and lots more. Jak3 is just great. But one bad thing: ONLY THREE BOSSES AGAIIIN!!! The first one is a robot, the second is a... robot while the third is a... SURPRISE, SURPRISE: A ROBOT! YAY! Jak3: Jak V.S a whole lotta robots as I call it. Its a very good game but a little short but tons of extras available after finishing the game.

Pros:
12 guns.
Even more locaitions.
Better missions.
MORE cheats.
Tons of unlockables.
Easier than JakII.
Still no signs of Power Cells or Fishing Levels.
Daxter gets more levels to explore.
Still free-roaming.
Dark and Light Jak on hand.
Jak1, JakII and Jak3 model viewers.
Scene players.
Mission/Boss replay system.
Ace music.
Better graphics.
More vehicles.
Ratchet styled Arena combat. Yee-haw.
Even more humor.
Action/Adventure Platformer.
Yep, Krew is still dead.
No Hip Hog saloon here: THE NAUGHTY OTTSEL replaces it.
No more crime based missions.
Still GTA-ish missions.

Cons:
Too short.
Vehicle missions mostly all suck.
Still repeative combat.
Only 3 bosses.

Graphics: 10
Sound: 9.5
Gameplay: 9.5
Replay Value: 10
Overall: 10

Final Verdict:
BUY OR DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
