Was Jak and Daxter the Precursor Legacy good? Jak and Daxter Retrospective.
#retro #jakanddaxtertheprecursorlegacy #rottenpapi
Jak and Daxter really was the game series that threw me into the grind mode of 100% a game. Naughty Dog gotta bring ‘em back
Worst double jump in platformer gaming history
LOL NO HAHAAHAHAH@@MasDouc
THE FIRST PLATFORMER THAT DID IT RIGHT@@MasDouc
@@MasDouc😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 you have a fantastic sense of humour never loose that
Nd are to busy whoring out last of us insomniac should reboot jak and daxter
0:25 this is why game preservation and outright education should be valued.
So, so many HUGE mega classics have essentially became "forgotten gems" the past few years, simply because their publishers hate their legacy IPs.
Yeah, this game was "just" THE trilogy made by NaughtyDog in the early 00s, and was essentially the mascot saga for PS2 for many years.
I would love to see your reaction to Jak 2
Great review, handled with wisdom! This provides such a clear picture of the game compared to what I'd get by just doing a first playthrough myself! The in-game voices were so quiet compared to the rest of the audio, without subtitles the story can be really hard to follow. I didn't know it was also so acclaimed, very cool!
1:30 they aren’t brothers they are best friends.
Honestly the movement and combat is so buttery smooth. Best controls of any 3D platformer of its era. Maybe ever.
The fact that they were able to do no loading screens in an open world with just 32 mb of ram with just the DVD drive and no HDD while still maintaining the visual fidelity high at 60 FPS is insane. Even on cutting edge PCs with like 20 times more ram and fast HDD there was just not a game that could do all of that until years later. In the mid to late 2000s (i think) when i first played this game, you have no idea how huge the jump from PS1 Crash Bandicoot to Jak And Daxter was to me, i think the jump of PS2 was the best in terms of 3d. No linear camera like Crash while still rendering like 1000 times more things and with better textures. Nowadays a modern open world game can look worse than a previous gen more linear game.
This game is just a proof that optimization skills would always surpass superior hardware.
SHE PUT IN THE '200MER' CLIP!!! Killer review, as always! It's a special review for me, since this is the first Zoomer Review for a game that I got to watch you play! I didn't even know 'Jak and Daxter' was this significant a game. I assumed it was another one of those 'Sly Cooper'/'Ratchet and Clank' kind of games. There are so many monumental game series that I feel like I missed out on, and it's nice getting to live the experience through your streams and these Zoomer Reviews. Thank you!
PS. Thank you Papi for falling on the sword for all of us, and putting yourself through that accursed fishing minigame. Now, to show our respect to your bravery, we all give eels the stank eye whenever we see them. 😒
Editor got a chuckle out of me when discussing Croc and showing footage of Banjo Kazooie crocodile transformation... well played
This was a fun video to watch, id love to see you review the other Jak games or other platformers from the same era like ratchet and clank, sly cooper etc.
I don't remember them being brothers lol pretty sure they were just the village knuckle heads who hung out
omg you're actually right! I thought I read they were brothers in the wiki but it doesn't say that! Whoops! Thanks for telling me hahahaha
This is so good papi and I loved the glimpse of your cosplay :)
Loved hearing about it being the 1st seemless open world. Naughty dog are my favourite developers and I didn't know that.
7:10 cue steven he "you can die in a CUTSCENE?!"
YES MORE JAK AND DAXTER, LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOO
Such a good series, holy shit.
I'm glad to see this oldie get the attention it deserves; it really spearheaded the whole 3D platformer genre.
I do feel compelled to tell you that Jak and Daxter aren't actually related.
Jak actually only has two relatives in the series (the uncle in Sandover, and a character from Jak 3 that I don't want to spoil for you if you ever get around to it).
Spoiler Tag:
Pretty sure Jak's Uncle isn't blood related when you take into consideration Jak came from the future.
Thank you so much for sharing part of the jak series to your audience, I’m a huge fan of it and would love to see what you think of jak 2 because that was my favorite of the series!
The fish mini game was so frustrating as a kid it took me forever 💀
I remember the crazy trailer they had for this game, back in the day. A huge seamless world filled with interesting locations and characters really set the bar high going into the ps2 era. Coupled with the day night cycle that truly brought the game to life makes this a amazing game even today.
As an 04 Zoomer, TPL was my first ever videogame. I have replayed it probably somewhere around 20-30 some times over the years. Highly recommend Jak II. It's a fantastic sequel and I'd love to see your review on it.
One of my favorite games and such a huge part of my childhood so many great memories always happy to see people talk about the game keep up the good work love the vid
If you're just now discovering this series then I HIGHLY recommend the next two games.
so awesome to see someone going back in time to play and appreciate the masterpieces I grew up playing! I wish more people would they would have a better taste in gaming.
I love this review series so far dude, it’s cool to see someone’s experience on games they haven’t played before! It’d be interesting to see you try out a fighting game at one point in the future if you ever felt like it, keep up the cool videos :)
Before I finish your video, that damn fish when swimming 🤦🏻♂️ lmaooo that thing always scared tf out of me😂😂 one of fav games as a kid
Can't wait for her to play JakII
I am both excited and scared for an inevitable Jak II review lmao
I am a zoomer but I found out about this game in 2005, as I was about 9 years old then and had it on ps2. They did a ps3 remaster and I believe you can get it on other systems as well as emulate it.
Great review, Zoomer! Also rock’n that outfit 👏😎
I still have this game now and this is a special game for me.
Daxter became a precursor animal the precursors looks like that.
When you said “200mer” that really sent me back, because when I first played this on a CRT, I thought it said 200Mer as well.
His muffins are in the swamp because theyre bait to attract his missing pet hiphog!
Good video! I will check in again for the Super Mario Bros 2 video
Daxter is an Ottsel which is a combination of an otter and a weasel. In terms of his species, there's more than meets the eye. All will be revealed in Jak 3.
Speaking of cosplay, I often cosplay as Ratchet (I have a Clank backpack) but I sometimes cosplay as PaRappa The Rapper. Coincidentally, I almost have the same height as Ratchet. Ratchet is canonically 5"0 while I'm 4"9.
That 'Anyway, I started blastin' clip is actually a really good description of Jak 2
Fun fact the main villain for the first jak and daxter game is voice by the lead singer to twist sisters
New RottenPapi upload! This makes me so happy honestly. I've been loving RottenPapi videos since that story time I think was about her ex I just remember it being a funny video I think her ex was salty and the whole video was just great
So I guess you’re reviewing and approving all my favourite childhood games, ok you win I subscribe 😂
i loveeeee the fishing minigame, i wish you could do it more than once! unless im misremembering and you can lol
I never knew now until now the Jak and Daxter Brothers I always thought they were just frien
Daxter is not Jak's brother,Daxter is Jak's friend
I just found your channel and its crazy your like Ramona from Scott Pilgrimm IRL
I’m currently going for the platinum for the franchise and I’m enjoying it.
that donkey king 64 situation is so relatable. i only needed one golden banana and for the life of me could never find it no matter how much i back tracked and checked every area. i probably needed to finish a minigame or something for it
Wish I caught you streaming this. Absolute favourite game growing up
Top 5 game for me growing up. Also love the shuffle as a hair clip.
Can't wait for Papi to play Jak II's edgy rebrand XD
"This one's gonna kick you in the balls"
It's gonna be the rings one isn--yep
Love the fact that your using an ipod as a hair clip
I never grew up with this one, but picking it up a few years ago made me see that this game is actually really impressive for the time, and especially for releasing so early on in the ps2’s life. it’s open world honestly is kind of comparable to stuff like breath of the wild and the way everything is interconnected feels a bit different from other collectathons at the time which had self contained levels accessible by a hub world. The environments are colorful and detailed, the animation is very smooth.
Been loving these retro reviews Papi! Keep’em coming😋
your iPod Shuffle hair clip is amazing! great video :)
Jak and Daxter aren't brothers!
Lol fun video, nice to see my childhood favorites still hold up.
It's cool that Ramona Flowers does retro game reviews
WAS THE ORACLE VOICED BY THE DUDE WHO DID KURAMA IN NARUTO??? WHAT
Jak and Daxter are just best friends not brothers haha but I like the sibling theory 😂
It's been decades but those mini games brought it all back. FFFFFUUUUU-----
iPod shuffle hairclip is sick
You should do Jak II, 3, & X next!!! Vastly different gameplay
Clicked to see if Mary Elizabeth Winstead was really making youtube videos. Stayed for the wit :)
wait til she finds out theyre friends not brothers through Damas XD
5:39 oh....oh you sweet, summer child...
You must not have played Jak 2 or 3 before...
6:40 Imagine kicking someone so hard that even a girl knows what it's like to be kicked in the balls.
You did miss out a bit not seeing the final cut scenes
I need that Gengar jumper
2/5 swamp muffins, best i can do
I’m glad you’re checking older games out your generation usually doesn’t care about retro games.
Time to play Jak 2
This game is one of my core memories!
nice shirt! :) and cool video. this was and still is my fav video game series. so many fond memories
Need more content! Also awesome sweater
Great review, I used to play this game all time when I was younger, I still have a copy of the trilogy on PS3, so I play it every once in a while. So sad that this franchise has been neglected for so long.
7:15 After playing this game for 20 years nearly on repeat (especially during lockdown) I have always wondered if that was possible but have never seen it done.
This was so cool, I really like how every time I watch one of these I learn a bit about the game I did not realize before. You and Mat are amazing at this! I also totally forgot you did the skip there, you seem to accidently find glitches a ton!
there is also a native PC port that fans have put together called Opengoal if you wanted to see it run a lot better and prettier
Love this game so much as it was the first thing I can ever remember playing as a kid
I remember playing this game with my friend Steven at my house before going to school and after school. So much happy memories, this game was sooo awesome 🥹
Still got PTSD from all the rings video games made me race through over the years 😵
You've gotta try Ratchet and Clank next, also the Sly Cooper series
I just finished this. This came out when I was a teenager and I got an Xbox rather than a PlayStation 2 (no, not for Halo, it felt like the Dreamcast 2 and it was the Hunter and SEGA titles that lured me in) so I played this off and on but never finished it, until playing my backlog because there's nothing really to play at present...... But, you can tell this is Naughty Dogs first attempt and this kind of gameplay. It's very reminiscent of Crash Bandicoot and the world has that old-school Naughty Dog feel, but you can tell it's a first attempt. The controls are really floaty and I ended up retrying for areas for up to an hour of die and retry feeling like I wanted to launch the controller across the room (GamerRage) and even switched out my controllers to make sure my controller wasn't crapping out. I even wondered at one point if Pressure Sensitive buttons were a real thing on PlayStation 2 and if that was really implemented into the game (as Naughty Dog, like Kojima, likes to do using every bit of tech for the hardware) because I guess there's no pressure sensitive buttons on the Dualshock 4 so..... And you'd think that the enemies and bosses would be your worst enemy in the game but they're not, the camera is. Depth perception is a must in platformers and when you can't see enough ahead of you or above you or whatever, then it's a blind leap of faith, a blind leap of faith to your death. It felt like Naughty Dog had a group of guys that were pure sadists whose job it was to make certain parts of the game require such precision that they'd want to watch playthroughs and just watch the GamerRage seep through (getting through those purple and blue rings..... Brings my piss to a boil just thinking about it). Or in the Spider Cave trying to swing on those posts, what a nightmare because the controls weren't consistent. Sometimes it would let you swing endlessly, other times would let you circle once and then drop you to your doom. I had to shut the game off several times and come back in a calmer less anxiety induced state. The CAMERA WAS A NIGHTMARE! and the controls were wonky and inconsistent. Head up those platforms to the final boss and then trying to get to the top of those three half platforms, talk about merciless and again, sadists, I missed my jump because I could see what was above me because the camera got blocked and, what a nightmare. Other than that, not bad for a first jump into that area. It's definitely not Naughty Dogs best and doesn't exude Naughty Dog quality they insist on now. From Uncharted: Drake's Fortune on, that's Naughty Dog quality 👍🏻
new to the channel.. is that an ipod shuffle in your hair?? xD
i loved this video! pls cosplay kira from the game!!
You rock all the rock Papi!! You are probably my fav Canadian of all time
my favorite childhood game:)
glad zoomers can still appreciate these games despite them being outdated
Not outdated for me. It still holds up.
Keep going you are unique and funny, and seems like you love gaming :D
The Jak and Daxter games are some of my all time favorites, its great to see them still getting love.
Jack & Daxter was the Ocarina of time for PlayStation 💙
Some funny games, crash twinsanity, whiplash, destroy all humans, gta is pretty funny.. conkers bad fur day.. i love comedy in games. Psychonauts. Man good stuff. Even ratchet and spyro had jokes
I remember this game! You did such a great job reviewing it too. ❤
When did Mary Elizabeth Winstead become a youtuber?
This game was on repeat when I was a kid playing it
the first one was great the second and 3th game i never realized how much i can bite a ps controller and how much i can smash it on the wall
the voice of the oracle is a homage to the charred council of the game darksiders (well worth a look at btw, basically zelda but you play as war - the horseman)
But didn't Darksiders come out in 2010?
Love your opinion on the game. Just a little thing. Daxtwr and Jak are not brothers, they are friends
I’m playing this right now on the ps2
Another solid review! While I don't think I'll play it, I love the history of the game. And of course the progamer instinctively triggered a speedrun glitch.
This Goodegg gives your review 100 Precursor Orbs out of 5.
Please play Jak II
I remember getting this around the time the third released. Great game and great review!
I discovered your channel through Jak and Daxter so this was fun to watch. I forgot you accidentally got Citadel Skip 😂
gotta get all the zoomers to play this trilogy
