Jak 4 to be revealed soon

Back in October a rumor surfaced saying we will see an Uncharted 2 announcement on VGC witch a teaser trailer showing Nathan in the snow. They also mentioned another that Uncharted 2 wouldn't be the only Naughty Dog announcement. Normally we can say this is just another false rumor, but his Uncharted rumor was very accurate. click on read more for the full story and the rumor.

[Kingsora]

considering his Uncharted 2 rumor is true even with the smallest details, I would say this rumor has to be true.c

crossing fingers for Jak PS3, and then we finallt know fow what the trademark The Last Frontier stands for ^^

[CloudsEnd]

I WOULD KILL FOR JAK 4

[tehReaper]

All I have to say is that it better not be a weak spinoff or vehicle game(I'm looking at you Banjo).

Very excited for this game. It's one of my favorite PS2 franchises.

[gaffyh]

Isn't it technically Jak 5? Although the last one wasn't really the same type of game, anyways looking forward to this.

[Kingsora]

JAK is so muh better that Ratchet, just wanted to say that :P I'd rather have one new Jak game than 5 new ratchet games

[Sir_Ken_Kutaragi]

I like Ratchet more tho;) I love Clank!!! ;-D
OH GOD!!! My 2009 PS3 List is going to get bigger!!! ;-P
+Please don't laugh people, but i want Naughty Dog to make a New Crash Bandicoot game!!! ;) Was never the same after they gave it to other people to make :-(

[Cajun Chicken]

Travellers Tales were pretty good, they made Wrath of Cortex and Twinsanity, I'd say they did a good job of keeping Crash on life support after ND.

[ShAkKa]

i completely agree Travellers Tales did a great job with crash specially on twinsanity.

[Kush_Reaper]

Hmm...*left eye twiches*...But Naughty Dog already revealed Uncharted 2 just a couple of hours ago...*both eyes twich with excitement*. Woah two top qaulity titles from Naughty Dog, 2009 is looking sweeeeeet.

OBAMA!!!

[trpride]

The ratchet and clank games are quite good IMOccc

[Nitrowolf2]

Yah!!!
It will be revealed evtually.

[Kingsora]

I don't say the Ratchet games are bad, but they just aren't as good as the Jak games

[LukaX23]

PLEASE BE TRUE! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!

[Fishy Fingers]

Ah, headline gave me the impression this was confirmed. Wait and see I guess, but I'll be more than happy to see a new Jak game.

[robotnik]

Wow, I don't want to believe it for now, but a JAK and Daxter would be so sweet. Although I only played and completed the first one.

[Dark_Overlord]

The first one was the best one IMO, then 2 was bad (I didn't like it) but 3 redeemed the series for me a bit.

I prefered it when there were no guns in and was more of a platformer

[Storm23]

I know a lot of people thought Jak 2 was the best but 1 was easily the best for me. I loved it so much. I hope 4 is very good. Jak and Ratchet are awesome!

[uie4rhig]

= YAY?
- no not 'YAY?'
= WOt you mean?
- well.. it's not 'yay'
= wot's it then
- ITS FU_CKING HELL YEAH!!!!

[ta1snake]

Great, that's a very good news.

[Zhuk]

Yet another disastrous release by the foolish executives at Sony, this title will be yet another critical and financial failure and it will fail to capture mindshare.

Every single misstep Sony makes is like music to my ears. The Xbox 360 is undoubtedly a true revolutionary home entertainment system, and this is reflected in its vastly superior lineup, graphics capabilities, feature set and value for money.

The end is nigh fandroids, the end is nigh.

[OmarJA]

2009 is the last chance for Microsoft to maintain an otherwise miniscule lead over the critically and commercially acclaimed PLAYSTATION®3 Computer Entertainment System. While Sony has dozens of AAA titles lined up perfectly for 2009, Microsoft has none. It looks as if Microsoft has played their last trump card since Xbox 360 is taking it's last breath before being placed on retail life support.

When it comes to software, hardware, online content and general functionality, PLAYSTATION®3 is the greatest system to ever be manufactured by a hardware company. PS3 is the definitive jack of all trades, master of all system. As OmarJA showed on this very show, Xbox 360 is a system that belongs in garbage cans worldwide.

Do yourself a favor and rid yourself of Xbox 360 and begin gaming b3yond the fourth dimension.

"Jump Out"

P L A Y B E Y O N D

[Magic_The_Celt]

The PS3 aint going anywhere kid.

[SickNick85]

maybe 2010 release...2009 uncharted 2 e new Ratchet future and 2010 Resistance 3 e jak 4...

[yoghurt]

Zhuk, do you have to wipe your chin after all the sh!t has come out of your mouth?

[PirateThom]

Ignore Zhuk, he's just angry that the 360's line up next year consists of GTAIV DLC, Halo 3 DLC (with the innovation of being on a disc), Halo Wars (a console RTS)... and, well, that's it.

[xionpunk]

I love the Jak games so much. For a while I thought I was perfectly fine with the trilogy ending the way it did - all three were awesome, and the ending of the third was funny as hell. But now, I'm ready for a new Jak dammit! It's to good of a series to be forgotten.

[beavis4play]

you know, the way jak 3 ended......it really seemed like a prelude to the next jak trilogy. that's how i saw it. but yea, the ending WAS funny as he11!

[sinncross]

Naughty Dog have already confirmed that they will be using the Uncharted engine for Jax 4 some time ago...
so its coming, just after they've finished with Uncharted 2.

[xionpunk]

Aw man... the thought of a jak game on the Uncharted engine... *head explodes

[tehReaper]

That same article that you speak of also said that they were working on a game BEFORE Uncharted 2. I wouldn't be surprised if the new Jak was it. If it was, expect it to release before Uncharted 2.

[Aclay]

Jak and Daxter was one of my favorite action adventure platform games on the PS2, and I've been craving for a PS3 sequel.

And I hope that it's another full fledged Jak game, not just a downloadable PSN title.

[Lucreto]

I have a feeling the Jak game will be a PSN title.

[demoneyeslaharl]

Why is this in the multi section?

[Cajun Chicken]

I seriously can't exclaim how happy I will be if this is true.

[123360]

i thought the same till i seen the killzone beta on my mates ps3,160gb ps3 owner now and i don,t know much about jak but uncharted was bundled in the deal and its one of the best out there gameplay and graphics.since then resistance 2,motorstorm 2,mgs4 and i even have bought call of duty 5 for ps3 when it would of being for my 360.i didn,t think i would say this but zhuk my live service ain,t no better than the psn from a games point of veiw in fact when have we been able to play 32 to 60 players online.i still have problems connecting with gears 2 and thats what 10 players total and i,m paying 35 to 40 pounds for this.ps3 is a great bit of hardware and if killzone,mgs4,resistance2,unch arted etc is going to be the norm on ps3 then i,m more than happy with my purchase.

[Kira83]

as much as i love the jak series, naughty dog is known for only work on one high calibur app at a time.

[beavis4play]

before resistance. ND can certainly go the same route. it's a very talented dev house.

[tehReaper]

Quote from Co-Founder of Naughty Dog, Evan Wells

“We developed Uncharted as a franchise. The pulp action/adventure genre lends itself perfectly to serialization and continued episodes which is one of the reasons we were attracted to it. Right now we are brainstorming on what Naughty Dog’s next project will be, but even if we don’t do an Uncharted sequel right away, you can pretty much count on us doing one in the near future.”

Sub-quote

“It’s very exciting to think what we can do with this tech now that it’s in place and we can focus on accomplishing something even more ambitious. And Jak and Daxter is a definite possibility some time in the future. There is a lot of interest around the office in going back to that franchise and seeing what we could do with it using the Uncharted engine.”

Seems to me that they've been working on a title other than Uncharted. :P

[Surfman]

Zak is cool. I loved the last 2 games. That is good news from Sony in the last 2 days: Uncharted 2, GOW3 and now Jak 4. Way to go Sony, the leader in videogame has just started to show his potential.

[Magic_The_Celt]

Awesome

[Blink_44]

I love the jak games!

[anubis12]

my younger brother loves this game ill have to get it for him

[Jamaicangmr]

Quit using your lil bro as a scapegoat you know you love it too. lol!

[Shmapanese]

but since my mum is getting a ps3 (with backwards compatability),ima be getting the jak series and GoW games as well,and some others..
this game looks to be promising since its after all coming from one of the most respected and talented devs out there these days.

[mll09]

Dayum.

1st purchases for me:

Killzone 2
Uncharted 2
Jak 4
Heavy Rain

DAYUM!!!!

[eagle21]

2009 looks incredible again for PS3 and 360 looks SAD. If 360 didn't have 3 price cuts in 08', they wouldn't dare brag about a damn thing! The games were critical flops (banjo, scene it, lips, too human, viva pinata 2) All 360 JRPG's sucked. Meanwhile critics loved PS3 in 08' with incredible reviews for Gran Turismo 5 pro. (lifelike graphic power), Metal Gear Solid 4 (GOTY/ decade), LittleBigPlanet (owns metacritic), Valkyria Chronicles (best JRPG this gen with White Knight soon).
:)

[eagle21]

Naughty Dog ftw! :)

Uncharted 2 teaser made me lose sleep last night cause I am so happy in enormous anticipation!

PS3 is KING! :p

[Adamalicious]

They don't usually announce another game while their current project is still unreleased.

[zonetrooper5]

Never played the Jax games on my PS2 so Im more for a new IP rather than a sequel to an old game. Good thing Uncharted 2 was annouced as the first one was an excellent game

[Danja]

well Uncharted 2 wont be a new IP anymore so it looks to me like you love sequels also..

plus Jak 4 would be kick-ass....the Jak series was one of my fave Franchises on the PS2...

[psthreee]

i hope jak 4 is gonna be like first one holy sh*t JAK 4!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
cant waait its gonna be epic

[Official General]

I'm real glad to hear this news about a possible Jak title on the PS3. Jak is just the type of platformer that I like, it had everything a plaformer should have, combat, acrobatics, weapons, enemies and nice envirnments with a variety of missons, puzzles and activities. Utilizing the power of the PS3, a new Jak game would have the potential to be something spectacular. I hope this is true.

[heyheyhey]

wow PS3's future line-up owns 360 so badly it's not even funny anymore... it's just sad

sad that all you 360 fanboys thought Microsoft could maintain a reliance on 3rd parties to produce exclusive games for the 360... it's sad that you people thought MS didn't need a solid 1st party.... now what? BioShock, Dead Rising and probably ME are all moving to PS3... what's left for the 360... a load of DLC? enjoy playing more of GTA4 guys.. il be playing stratospherically awesome Killzone 2, GOW3, Uncharted: AT etc etc... amazing experiences

[solsub]

Oh my god, I hope this is true...

[PS3Freak]

xbox360? ...... never heard of it. Ps3? Oh, you mean the one with COUNTLESSS AMAZING GAMES COMING OUT!? Ya...
