Being a big fan of the Zak and Daxter series of games for the Ps2 going back years, I was excited to get a chance to play a spin off of the series on the PSP. I rented it at Blockbuster and with minimal time (maybe 15 hours total) I was able to beat it from beginning to end. Granted I didn't gather all of the orbs, but I was able to actually beat the boss and complete the game. Since then, I've now bought the title in order to gather the orbs and hidden eggs and take my time discovering all of the hidden gems. All in all, this game is simply okay. The graphics translate well over to the PSP and the game is actually kind of fun in a very simple mind numbing bug squashing way. The enemies aren't all that inventive or challenging, but for platforming fans, it will keep you occupied and you can actually find a copy of this game on Ebay for easily under $15 including shipping and that makes it an even better deal. If you're not a collector type of player (find all of the hidden eggs and orbs), just rent it. You'll be able to finish it pretty quickly. But if you like to search around and find the hidden collectibles, go ahead and buy it, because you can snatch it up pretty inexpensively at this point in its lifespan.Read full review
Daxter has to be one of the best games for the PSP so far. It has a lot to offer. The graphics are simply spectacular and the gameplay isn't difficult at all. The game isn't too complicated or too hard, as well as the controls. It has a very good storyline further extending the adventures of the Jak and Daxter franchise, only in this game Daxter is the hero set out to rescue Jak. The game has a pretty lengthy storyline which really keeps the player from getting bored. The game offers a few enjoyable side missons which aren't too complicated along with a variety of gadgets which you recieve as you progress through the game. Also through out the game you will come across several vehicles one of which you can use to reach your misson destinations which gives the game some what of a free roam feel. The game has a few rough spots but after a couple of retrys it won't be much of a bother. Overall this is a great game for the PSP and is indeed a must have.Read full review
This is a fun game, but more suited towards the younger crowd. It offers great graphics and fun worlds to explore. It is decently challenging; some parts almost too challenging (there are a number of mini games that you must beat before you can move on within different worlds). The controls are a little funky at first and do take some getting used to. The story line is easy and fun to follow. One thing I think they could have made better was your choice of weapons. You basically only have two, yet, you do get upgrades to those, they still remain the same. Overall this is a good game and fun to play if you are in the younger crowd, or don't mind the simpleness of the game.
Daxter- Rated E10+ for Animated blood, cartoon vilence, crude humor, and mild language It takes place right before Jak ll The Pros: superb graphics, easy controls, colorful scenes, many moves to learn, great gameplay, different missions, variety of vehicles. The Con: a few camera problems and Not always varied gameplay. Story: You play as Daxter, a half otter half weasel mix. You work around Haven city disguised as a bug exterminator, in order to find clues in hope of breaking Jak (from the infamous Jak and Daxter) out of prison. You have different gadgets (like flamethrower, toxic spray, mini bombs), and you will need all of them to survive. I give it a 8.3/10. Amount of Fun: This game is great fun, though it can get pretty frustrating at times, like during boss battles where you have no idea how to beat them . However, w/ different variety, this game is great. Many of the missions are different, and the game rarely gets boring. I gave it a 9.0/10 Graphics: This might as well be the best part of the game! The graphics are simply superb! They're visually stunning! No matter what you do, where you are in the game, the graphics are always amazing! Not much else to be said. I give them a 9.6/10 Sound: The music is great and goes w/ the settings and scenes. The voice ins are perfect, though I was a little surprised when I first heard Daxter talk (for those of you who have never played a Jak and Daxter game, yup, he can talk). There are no multiple voice-ins (like the same ppl for different charectors). Daxter's pretty funny too!I gave it a 9.7/10 Controls: The controls in this game are simple, and don't take very long to get used to. Maybe 15 minutes at the most! You learn new moves as you collect certain eggs and act out Daxter's "Heroic Fantasies". The camera is easy to control (L and R to move the camera), and overall I gave the controls a 9.0/10 Gameplay: Gameplay is pretty similar to the console version of the game, except it's all Daxter. It is full of variety! There are very few boring parts, and it's pretty rare that you get stuck. I gave this a 9.6/10, also. Difficulty: This game is fairly simple, and rarely gets you discourgaed. Only once or twice do you get stuck (meaning you do the same thing more than 10 times). It's too easy at times, so I would give this an 8.1/10 Multiplayer: Ther is only AD Hoc mode for multiplayer, meaning local only. In multiplayer mode, you do weird bug battles. You put your bug up against other people's bugs. I've never done it, so I'm not going to give it a score. Replay value: This game isn't very long. I beat it in 8 hrs and 51 minutes. It's not exactly the longest game. You collect eggs in order to unlock the new dream sequences (heroic dream/fantasies) which, when you beat, unlocks new moves. However, you often collect eggs while playing, and like me, don't go back and do a lvl over simply to collect eggs. I unlocked all new moves b4 finishing the game. There isn't very much to do once you've beaten the game, other than go on you "scooter" and drive around, which isn't even half as fun as it sounds :( (nothing like GTA) I personally will trade daxter for new games once I beat this. So I gave replay value a 6.4/10 OVERALL: This game is one to buy, or rent for a week or two (if that's possible). Since it's E, this game is fun for anyone, young or old, or anyone between! I gave this game a 9.0 overall! This isn't the actual score, but what I personally think.Read full review
This game is very fun to pick up and play. You play the game as Daxter from the Jak and Daxter series that was available on the PS2. As an exterminator, Daxter's job is the help rid the town of bugs. The graphics really show what the PSP can do. With a smooth frame rate, high polygon count and vivid colors, the game is one of the best looking PSP titles out there. The controls are also easy to pick up and the game controls quite well with the PSP analog nub. Buttomline: If you need a fun platformer with a quality story and excellent graphics, this the the game for you.
