I'm an equal opportunity lover of both Jak and Ratchet. For pure platforming greatness though Jak & Daxter wins. Never played a single Mario game in my life, so Mario comes nowhere fopr me. But I so loved the original Crash Bandicoot games that it is hard to put Crash below Jak or Ratchet. Definitely the 3 best platformer franchises.
LBP has it over R&C for this gen so far, but only because of play create share, and online, were it not for these I'd give it to R&C. But you can't put LBP in the top of the Sony platforming heap until Jak has his turn on the PS3. Naughty Dog has done something special with Uncharted, so they can for sure take platforming to new and glorious heights. Jak can dethrone Mario for this gen IMO.
If they do a motion control Jak and Daxter (and it isn't gimped or gimicky) I will for sure get myself the eye and wand. Can't thin of any of the current stable of motion control games that would convince me to go with the motion.
Give me Jak!!!
