Jak and Daxter = Failure

They failed because they didn't sell as much as Crash? That's a high standard to live up to. I think they sold just fine - The only problem was that it didn't really distinguish itself from Ratchet & Clank, and each franchise pumped out a copy every year. I think if they took a year between games, gamers might be more willing to pick up the sequel.

If they failed, why do you want them to bring the series back? You think it will magically sell as much as Crash because it's on the PS3?

 

I agree with you that it didn't distinguish itself from Ratchet enough, and also that pumping out games EVERY year hurt the sales.

So why would I want Jak on Ps3? You answered your own question.... Because it finally has had some time off, so gamers like myself would be willing to pick it up again.

 

BUT...the question is, even if they did bring Jak back... what kind of game would it be? Considering the first 3 are all very different in terms of game play. That is another way Jak failed. They never even established a niche for it at all.
