4.5/5 ★ – Lancey's review of Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy.

I have been transfixed by the world of Jak and Daxter for a long time, and finally being able to purchase the trilogy and jump right in has truly been a joy. Such a beautiful and innovative game for its time, I can say that the Precursor Legacy truly retains much of its original magic several decades later. Jak feels awesome to control; some of my early frustrations with combat or exploration were quenched by finding new moves or combos that make the world a joy to venture through. The boss battles, while few, are clever and unique for a 3D platformer. The collecting is genius; menus clearly show you where to look for power cells or precursor orbs, which are smartly placed across each area. The animation and voice-acting are all perfect and brilliant; it's incredibly easy to fall in love with these characters, and I can't wait to play the next titles to learn more. Overall an underrated PlayStation joy that more people should be talking about and re-visiting so that a new title is possible.
