If you like Jak 3, you'll like Jak 1 and 2, but I should warn you that Jak 1 is pure platforming of the highest order, you only ride this weird hover bike like 5 times, and you can pick up a fireball power up. Awesome game. Jak 2 still has WAAAYY more platforming than 3, but not as much as 1, and Jak has actual weapons in this one, it feels almost like GTA sometimes. Jak 3 was easy as pie compared to Jak 1 and 2, and there was way too much racing. I think Jak 1 is my favorite, just because of the vibe I get from it.....the other 3 were almost apocalyptic, the first one is kind of utopian in a way, I still kick it up once in a while just to explore. PS2's Mario 64, in my opinion, I get the same feeling from the both a lot of the time.
Jak 1 and 2 = Best platformers on PS2. Then Sly Cooper 1 and 2, more 1 than 2, and then the Ratchet and Clank series, then Jak 3.
