Jak 3

One year has passed since Jak and Daxter saved Haven City from Kor and the attacking Metal Heads, yet Haven City is still immersed in deadly chaos as three groups fight for control of the streets. The people of Haven City have grown to distrust Jak's dark powers, and as rumors boil of Jak's ties with Krew and Kor, the city blames Jak for its current woeful circumstances. When the palace is destroyed by a surprise Metal Head attack, even Ashelin cannot protect Jak as the High Council's power broker , Count Veger , forces Jak into banishment to the desolate Wasteland. Jak is flown to the harsh island and dumped. With Daxter and Pecker bravely by his side, the three begin their next adventure where the battle for the city has just begun.

Five times the size of Haven City, the Wasteland is a desert environment with multiple areas including mines and a volcano. Given the enormity and variance in terrain, vehicles play a large role as off-road transportation is introduced, fueled by a true-to-life physics engine. With a rugged new look and suited with armor, Jak is also equipped with an arsenal of new weapons with upgradeable mods that enable players to increase their firepower and enjoy the freedom to strategize and activate their arsenal at any time.

As Jak has been exposed to Light Eco, players can now experience Jak's magnificent transformation to Light Jak. With a glowing electric blue aura and a massive wing span, Light Jak introduces new move sets, including the ability to glide great distances, emit an energy to block enemy attack, and power up at anytime, all of which provide the player with a sense of being invincible. Dark Jak also returns with more capabilities, forcing Jak to find a balance between light and dark.

Special Features * The new Wasteland features a desert with multiple areas, including a mine, volcano and the desert city of Spargus that is home to fierce inhabitants. * Vehicles play a large role in the game, as Jak and Daxter will unlock a variety of vehicles, including off-road transportation. All feature complex, simulated vehicle physics and come equipped with weapons. * Not only will players take on the role of Jak, they can also play as Daxter, who has an extended role within the game during level-specific areas. * Now that Jak has been exposed to Light Eco, players can transform themselves into Light Jak, with amazing new abilities including a move that allows Jak to glide with the addition of large angelic wings. * Dark Jak powers also return, as Jak must find a balance between Light Eco and Dark Eco. * All of Jak's weapons from Jak II return with the addition of two devastating upgrades for each gun type. * Haven City has changed dramatically since players last saw it. After a Metal Head attack destroyed the palace and demolished the majority of the city, players will notice some major aesthetic differences that will alter gameplay. * The Titan Suit and Jetboard return to provide Jak and Daxter additional ways to get around their dangerous surroundings. * Jak 3 feature new technology including Ragdoll Physics, which will allow gamers to observe a unique death for each enemy that is killed, cloth dynamics, Wasteland terrain renderer, revamped spooling and memory management scheme, and massively overhauled rigid-body physics system. * Players will enjoy more than 60 minutes of movie quality in game cinematics.

Jak's back, baby. Get ready for his biggest, most exciting adventure yet!

Some people are never grateful. Despite being saved from Kor and the attacking Metal Heads in Jak II, Haven City is still immersed in deadly chaos as three groups fight for control of the streets and Jak is getting the blame!

Mistrust of Jak's dark powers, rumours of an alliance with Kor and an attack on the city all conspire to have our hero banished to the desolate Wasteland. This is where Jak 3 begins, and it's up to you to put things right!

The Wasteland is a harsh environment that's an amazing five times the size of Haven City, including diverse, challenging areas for Jak to negotiate such as mines and a deadly volcano. For Jak to succeed in his missions you'll need to master different game styles incorporating driving, adventure, action-platform, puzzles, strategy and exploration skills.

Vehicles play a large role in the game, as through the course of their adventure Jak and his trusty wisecracking sidekick Daxter will discover a variety of transport. Whatever you find, you'll discover that brilliant vehicle physics and serious weaponry come as standard.

You'll also get to grips with a greater degree of character complexity. In addition to controlling Daxter at several points during the game, you can use Jak's new Light powers as a result of him being exposed to Light Eco - including a new move that allows Jak to glide with the addition of large, angelic wings.

Don't panic though, this doesn't mean Jak's suddenly become a goody two-shoes. His Dark powers also return, so you'll need to find a balance between Light and Dark - not to mention fire off all of his weapons from Jak II, which have received a new set of devastating upgrades.

Jak 3 is the most challenging, exciting adventure that Jak and Daxter have ever faced - but with his new powers, not to mention the Titan Suit and Jetboard, they can succeed and clear Jak's name. They just need your help!
