Naughty Dog has outdone themselves, I really can see no flaws in this game, it does everything its suppose to do, and it does it marvelously.

You make a good point. It's really quite amazing how deep this game is...how detailed. And with all of these details, there are very little flaws...

Quite amazing. Good job ND...

UPDATED IMPRESSIONS

I just stopped after the fat guy gave me the GREEN security pass for the stadium area.

OH MY GOD.

The city keeps getting bigger and bigger. It's insane...and the quest for the 3 artifacts for that parrot (he's hilarious btw..."My name...is Pecker" :lol: ) was a lot of fun...the falling rocks part was genious.

The game keeps impressing me, even though I have a couple other AAA games on the go (SSX3, Tiger Woods)...simply stunning.

If I had to give the game an early score, it would be in the 9.2-9.5 range...and I don't hand out great scores like that very often.

Yeah, I am 23% complete.. It is great. I think that I have all of the city opened up, unless there are some more little parts to it. yep... it's really really fun.

I beat the game a little while ago. Took me a total of 17 and a half hours. Good stuff.

I really want to play this game...

Do I have to beat the Jak and Daxter first before playing Jak II? Also, what's this Grand Theft Auto thing in this game? I heard the city is huge, but can you go around and freely roam the city while stealing cars and killing pople?

DM said he beat the game in 17 hours, that's pretty short... Are there any extras?

(The game seems short)

And yeah, there are extras, not side quests or anything, but if you collect all these precursor eggs, you get secrets, like Big Head mode, Invicibility, etc.

No, you don't have to beat Jak and Daxter before playing. In fact it's completely unecessary.

Yes you can freely roam the city, killing and stealing all you want.
