Quotes:

Jak: Rayn, what's going on?
Rayn: Relax, this whole thing was designed to flush Mizo out. As for the poison, don't worry, I've got the antidotes right here.
Ashelin: How could you know that Mizo would be close?
Rayn: Father tried to eliminate Mizo for years, but he could never ID the man. Then we realized... There is no Mizo, or rather...
G.T. Blitz: Out of my way! You broke the rules!
Daxter: Blitz?
G.T. Blitz: I'm Mizo! And losing the bet changes nothing! I'll crush your family and this whole city! No one else will ever know.
Pecker: No one except for two hundred million viewers that is.

Not you're usual Sunday drive.

Jak hits the streets yet again with his furry friend Daxter but this time with a twist. You still have fun shooting you're enemies and earning precursor orbs but this time you do this while driving around trying to win first place. But it's not all straight forward racing. Sometimes it's a race to gain the highest amount of points before time runs out or shoot you're opponents before they shot you and much, much more. Though you start off with two cars, you can earn more cars as you progress through the game and change the style and colour of your cars. There are a few new characters in this game and they slip in fine with the older characters. The story line is good enough and easy to understand. The graphics however, have to be the best. There's nothing more satisfying than watching you're opponents being shot up in the air and being shot to pieces! Overall, this is a must for and Jak fans but as I said before it is different from the previous games so you may or may not be let down by this game.
