Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy is the first game in the Jak and Daxter series. One of the first platformers for the PlayStation 2, it was revolutionary for its time. You play as a mute teenage boy teamed up with his loudmouth best friend who was accidentally turned into an otter/weasel hybrid.
