Daxter™
By Jason Stolfer
Move over Jak, because Daxter is here through. Well at least on the PSP. This
all new adventure is made exclusively for the PSP. Daxter, being the first title
developed by Santa Ana-based Ready At Dawn Studios, will set the standard for
character action games on the PSP. This title will complete the Jak and Daxter
story and allow players to find out how Daxter came to free Jak at the beginning
of Jak II™. According to Ready At Dawn Studios, Daxter will take the Jak
and Daxter franchise into a whole new direction.
Taking place during the two years of searching for Jak, who was imprisoned
during the events that led to start of Jak II. In an unfamiliar place, Daxter
quickly realizes that his small size won’t help his chance of survival. In order
to find Jak, Daxter takes on a job as a pest exterminator which enables him to
search parts of Haven City and find clues of Jak’s whereabouts. Little does
Daxter know what he is getting into?
If you have been a fan of the Jak n’ Daxter™ series then getting used
to the controls will not be a problem. The game handles just as if it was the
PS2 version, even though you are going to be playing on the PSP. Just as any
other Platform game you run around looking for secrets and making your way
through many different obstacles. Jumping and fighting against different enemies
there is one thing that has always been certain, which is that the Jak n’
Daxter™ series has always been enjoyable I do not see this being a problem with
the PSP version of this new chapter featuring Daxter™
Daxter™ is a great game but one problem is the control and the camera
control. Platform games are difficult as it is and not having a responsive
control is not a great thing when you trying to do timed jumps and watch out for
on coming obstacles. On top of that not being able to control the camera will
trying to make these difficult jumps and what ever else the game may throw at
you, can make for frustrating game play. You can learn to deal with the control
and learn to play with how to make the camera work with you. You can enjoy a
great storyline for a platform game fun cinemas and great graphics.
