Finally, Jak's fuzz-ball, wise-cracking side-kick gets his own game. Don't be fooled by his size or on which platform he's featured--this is a great adventure that will satisfyingly draw you in until the end.

Think twice before choosing any other game to daxter....
It seriously doesn't matter whether ur a jak and daxter fan or an experienced player of the series, Daxter is the most fun filled game on the psp!.I repeat it is a must have to every psp owner.If u don't like the gameplay then there is something wrong with you (as in u either own a ds or not a gamer at all).
First coming up is the graphics if u think the game play is well made but the graphics might be missed out then ur wrong.Mesmerized in the gameplay you might just ignore the cool and slick visuals.Properly using the technical power of the psp daxter manages to give out beautiful visuals so please do try and notice that if ur thinking about playing the game.
The gameplay.......Like ratchet and clank taught us that size matters daxter says gameplay matters(don't like it? ignore the cheesy line).You end up playing an awkwardly cartoon y character with which you might feel uncomfortable at first but as u get to know the innovative gameplay controls u simply enjoy yourself.These cool gameplay controls are mainly due to the flexibility of the character and his cheesy humor!.New forms of gameplay emerge as you proceed through the game as in you float in air much often than running along on the ground.Wondering why im bragging around for the gameplay? try for your self you'll know!.
Overall through out the game the story was not very influential when compared to its game play and graphics but at the same time not the worst.This game is a must have and must play for every psp owner!.Oh! yeah! I forgot about the minigames! so every day after a hard day of work daxter takes a little nap....whoa! he has a number of action packed dreams! which turn out to be nothing more than minigames,these minigames are bloody fun to play and challenging which help show the fun and adventurous nature of the Daxter.
Please do not forget to comment give hints,pointers to any improvements i can make in my reviews.
Thank You!

Daxter
The bad thing about Jak 2 and 3 is that when you got to play as Daxter, the controls were wonky and the character on screen seemed a little too crazy than you just hitting buttons. In this game, Sony was actually able to fix that.

Ottsel never played so good.
Ready at Dawn studios. Gotta love 'em, those guys. The brought Okami to the Wii, God of War to the PSP, and they even managed to bring the Jak and Daxter series to that beloved hand held as well. But does it fall short of greatness just because it's a portable game? Nope. One thing I must point out first, is the graphics. When the screenshots for this game were released, they were up to par with PS2 games. I feel that this is a great achievement technologically, not just because the game looks good, but because the game is a portable version of a console counter part. The audio fits the situations in the game smoothly, and you'll feel at home here in this game excluding the fact that you won't play as Jak. The game is a prequel to Jak 2, and so you will traverse areas in Haven City, looking for bugs to squash. The combat in the game if good, as you will come across different attachments for your weapon, which are used in different places, and have different effects on enemies. As this is a platformer, you will spend most of your time jumping from environments to environmental hazards, and collecting things that may aid you in your journey. The voice acting stays true to the series, the characters are as crazy as ever, and the game can pose some challenges to you, though it isn't the longest title I've played. This game is great on the go, and so I think that the decision to port the series to hand held was the way to go. This game is one that should be at home in any PSP owner's library. I recommend it to any PSP owner.

Naughty Dog is Awesome
a nice addition to the Jak & Daxter series where you get to play as your favorite character; Daxter! The game is fun and great for the PSP! Personally, I think this is what Secret Agent Clank will be like. Play it if you're a fan of J&D!
