Will there ever be a Jak and Daxter 4? - The fans Jak 4 petition

Fans of Jak and Daxter have been asking Naughty Dog to make Jak 4 for many, many years now. Still, no such game has ever been made. However, no one thought that Shenmue 3 would ever happen either (which it is thank to Kickstarter and the fan community. So "maybe" Jak and Daxter 4 could happen with the help of the Jak community and Kickstarter?

IIFloodyII3211d ago

Naughty Dog tried and gave up making Jak 4, I doubt the want to try again anytime soon, maybe they'll let another studio take over, but I doubt it.

TGG_overlord3211d ago

That´s what I found out as well, and that would be a good plan B for sure. Naughty Dog could always try Kickstarter?

_-EDMIX-_3210d ago

Well its not Naughty Dog's IP for starters its Sony's and the team is one of the best teams in gaming, I'm pretty sure if they canned it, it was for good reason.

That doesn't mean no Jak 4, merely not the Jak 4 concept they where currently working on.

nucky643211d ago

yea - they gave up because they didn't feel the concept they were trying to use was working.....and judging from the concept art of jak, I can see why. they need to do a new J&D game but not lose sight of what made the games great: they were light-hearted and fun.

I don't want serious, military jak!

Majin-vegeta3211d ago

If they cant go with plan A then go with plan B.All Jak 1-3 remakes like the New R&C games.At least then they would keep us occupied.

_-EDMIX-_3210d ago

I think it should be remade sorta like how Ratchet 1 is being remade on PS4, but that may not even be Naughty Dog doing that as it could be another team.

Naughty Dog can always do a Jak 4 with a different concept, I don't think this means no Jak 4, juts not the one shown in those pictures.

nucky643211d ago

uh, no. if you saw the end of #3 - it definitely leaves the door wide open for the 2 to have entirely new adventures.

DragoonsScaleLegends3211d ago

Nope, fps and zombie games are the only games that will bring in the casuals. Naughty Gods future is not looking bright after Uncharted 4. I suspect more lesbian zombie dlc is coming.

DragoonsScaleLegends3210d ago

It's funny that you thought that I was trying to be.

Kingdomcome2473211d ago (Edited 3211d ago )

What? Did you watch the same UC 4 footage as everyone else? You are trolling , and you yourself don't even believe what you've typed. The only thing worse than a troll, is a troll without conviction. OT: If you guys could only choose one, which would you take? A new Jak & Daxter installment, or a new Crash?

Majin-vegeta3211d ago

I dont think I could choose both those series have deep sentimentals in my childhood ;_;.

DragoonsScaleLegends3210d ago

I said after UC4 the future is not bright, understanding English must be difficult for you. :(

Kingdomcome2473210d ago

Lol. I can pretty much guarantee that I both comprehend and speak English far better than you. Once again... what was it within the UC 4 footage that would prompt your response? It looks to me as though they've raised their own bar once again, which in turn means that they are still improving their craft, which gives plenty of reason to be more than hopeful for life after UC. Keep trolling, man.

Ratchet & Clank Are The Only Surviving (& Thriving) PS2 Mascots

The PS2 birthed various notable PlayStation mascots, but Ratchet and Clank appear to be the only ones that made it on every later console generation.

We needed remakes of Jak and Daxter more than pumping out an unnecessary "remake" of Last of Us.

Then again, we're hilariously now getting a "remake" of Horizon Zero Dawn, so Sony is already outdoing themselves.

neutralgamer1992534d ago

😂 man really HZD just came out

MadLad534d ago

People on here go at me because I always take jabs at Sony, but it's because I want to see them do better.
Do they make great games? Of course. As of this gen does their ecosystem suck? I'd say definitely yes.

They're becoming more anti consumer by the day.

neutralgamer1992534d ago

Mad

It's not PlayStation bro it's Jimbo and his cronies thinking the success of because of them and not guys like Shawn layden, Andrew house etc

MadLad534d ago

I get that. Jim needs to go. At the same time, we're still the consumer, and Sony is still the people doing the hiring and writing the checks. They need to stop turning a blind eye to how Playstation is being handled right now and get things back on track.

This isn't last generation. Xbox is real competition again. You're seeing a lot of people getting tired of what they're doing with the brand the last couple of years.

Vengeance1138535d ago

God of War? Hello? Is Kratos not a PS2 mascot? Hard to think that he's not.

SonyStyled535d ago

Beat me to it. When I read the headline I was like “huh?”

Lifexline535d ago

I don’t think so for some reason the title mascot is always given to “platformers” characters like Mario in particular when it comes to games.

Miscrosoft tried d to make master chief it’s mascot but it never really stuck because those characters appeal to a small percentage of gamers.

Vengeance1138535d ago (Edited 535d ago )

God of War on PS2 does have platforming elements in it, if Jak & Daxter and Ratchet can be considered platformers with the inclusion of minor platforming elements in them then so can God of War.

What a mascot is though is simply a game series based around a "named character". Solid Snake is a mascot, Gabe Logan from Syphon Filter is a mascot, Lara Croft is a mascot etc... we really don't get many franchises based around a single named protagonist anymore.
Master Chief is 100% Microsoft's mascot and yes he does appeal to a very wide range of gamers. He's a space marine much akin to the Terran in Starcraft, whats not to love.

darthv72535d ago

blinx was the xb mascot, not master chief. but they gave up on blinx after the 2nd game which is sad as there was lots of potential there. They should bring him back.

abstractel534d ago (Edited 534d ago )

So the definition of a mascot is that they have to be cartoony and platform characters? Makes little sense to me.

Mascot, Icon, whatever word you want to use, Kratos is definitely part of that Playstation definition. And yeah, Master Chief is one for Xbox for whatever it's worth.

Levii_92535d ago

Nahh we don’t need these kind’s of games we need more walking slimulators like Naughty Dog games and remakes of games that aren’t even 10 years old because they make money right Sony. The fact that R&C is still around AND still good is a goddamn miracle that i’m very grateful for.

Z501535d ago

"We need more walking Simulators"

Like Hellblade 2?

solideagle535d ago

lol it's funny how your only game is about Sony games because Microsoft has no games to compare to :p

Smellsforfree534d ago

Which is absolutely fine since he wasn't comparing Sony to MS in his comment to begin with.

shinoff2183535d ago (Edited 535d ago )

Its obvious your just hating levii92. You can call last of us whatever the f you want Ill call it one of the best games Ive played. Also if you cant see the huge drastic difference in graphics between a ps3 and subsequent remaster to ps4 which didnt change the looks to much to a remake for ps5 where the graphics are phenomenal then thats on you lil guy. And its far from a walking simulator Id guess you never even played it.

Truth is the last of us is fantastic and if you dont wanna pay that much for it wait, if you even play ps which I doubt. It was just 50 bucks everywhere. Im still waiting until its 30 or so cause I dont like to spend over 30 40 bucks on any games these days.

On the bright side atleast you can stand in the corner or something cause I know the other system doesnt have alot going on these days.

TheEnigma313535d ago

Bitter because your console can't produce games lol.

SonyStyled535d ago

Levii, does it bother you that the remake came out 9.25 years after the original? Would your balls not be squeezed as hard if it was delayed 9 months?

Rocosaurus534d ago

You are not wrong. The probably two biggest ps5 exclusives next year are the second chapter of FF7 (remake) and Knights of the old Republic (remake).

z2g534d ago

the last R+C (rift apart) was definitely way better than I wanted to give it credit for before playing. still one of the best, most impressive ps5 games imo.

badz149534d ago

the game is so good, the only flaw I want to highlight is the fact that it's a little bit short for my liking. I want more of it damn it!

Despite No New Games, Naughty Dog's Jak and Daxter Franchise Lives On

Even though it's been 13 years since the last brand-new Jak and Daxter game, several factors have allowed Naughty Dog's franchise to survive.

I know naughty dog has no interest in this, but man I love to see this series return, or at the very least get blue point onto remaking the original 3 games please!!!

mastershredder555d ago

A different and more fun Naughty dog made that game.
