|gameinfo          = [[Naughty Dog]]'s follow-up to ''[[Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy]]'', the narrative, setting, and gameplay loop of ''Jak II'' are a steep departure from the first game, influenced by the sudden popularity of its contemporary, ''[[Grand Theft Auto III]]''. Jak is transported to a dystopian world called Haven City where he is subjected to biological experiments and gains new dark eco powers, which, along with eco-based weapons, he uses to combat the tyrannical rule of Baron Praxis and to fend off vicious creatures known as the Metal Heads. ''Jak II'' was proceeded by ''[[Jak 3]]''.
|gameinfo          = Jak is back in another action-packed adventure, but he's not the same.  In Jak II, experiments with Dark Eco gone wrong leave Jak with an uncontrollable dark side, and after two years in prison, Jak seeks vengeance.  Accompanied by your trusty friend Daxter, unleash the dark powers on multiple enemies and witness amazing transformations.  Armed with powerful weapons, a high-tech jetboard, an impenetrable mech suit, and a number of vehicles at your disposal, you have no excuse for failure.<br />
The game features new weapons and devices, new playable areas, and a storyline that picks up after the events of The Precursor Legacy. The game's plot was noted for being much darker than its predecessor's. As in the previous game, the player takes on the dual role of recurring protagonists Jak and Daxter. There is also a new array of characters such as Torn, Erol, Krew, Kor, Ashelin, and Sig, as well as some returning ones, such as Samos and Keira.
