Jak II

"Some camera issues and stretches of inactivity mar the shine, but this is still about as good as the genre gets."

"Naughty Dog’s latest game is a very enjoyable title, yet no masterpiece – for this it has too many flaws in various aspects of the game."

"Everything in Jak II comes together to produce one of the best-looking, best-playing games on the PS2 so far."

"...this game is far and above a different creature, a better game, than its predecessor. With the storyline, killing missions and an enormous mixture of shooting, racing and exploring injected into the game's primary design, Naughty Dog's Jak II looks to blaze a serious new path for the ailing genre in the process."

"...the story is what drives this game forward, but it's the perfect blend of platforming elements and action-shooting that are so good, feel so right -- and with guns that feel so good -- that in the end, I don't give a damn what genre this game actually falls under. What is it? It's one of the very best games on PS2."
