Top 10 Jak and Ratchet Games for the PlayStation 2

This is a list of my favourite Jak and Daxter and Ratchet and Clank games available on the PS2.
It includes the original PS2 titles from NaughtyDog and Insomniac Games as well as the PS2 ports of the PSP Jak or Ratchet games.
The Top Ten
1 Jak 2

My first game that made me see how enjoyable video games were and it never got bring this is also the child version of Grand Theft Auto just think about it and it kinda reminds you of Grand Theft Auto. You steal car you get chased buy cops and there are missions in order to complete and fully get a grasp of this amazing classic.

I enjoyed this game so much I saw that they were selling it for ps3 and I bought it again for when I get bored of destiny (Excited for the taken king)or Call of Duty. And one Question WHERE IS SLY COOPER

Jak 2 is not only the top of the list but also my favourite PS2 game ever. The exciting plot kept me playing the hard and unforgiving missions unlike in Jak 3 where I did the missions just to complete the game. I've played Jak 2 so much that I often associate this game with the PS2. It still amazes me that I could still enjoy this game long after getting all the orbs.

Yeah, my fave game ever too. The levels and the plots were absolutely incredible, the action was unpredictable, and how damn fun is is when you hit a crimson guard and start a riot! Laugh out loud!
Ah, I have all of them on ps3 now, and this remains the best game ever in my opinion.

AMAZING! But I've played it a lot and beat it got all the orbs (yes even from the races and gun corses) and it has a good storyline got platinum on the ps3 jak and daxter collection and still just amazes me but jak 3 is a little worse but I think all jak games are good

2 Ratchet and Clank: Up Your Arsenal

Everything was great about this game. The weapons were the best in the series and this had the best humor. This is one of my favorite games of all time because of the amazing story and it had the best arena out of all the ratchet and clank games.

Grew up with this and jak2 I swear can't choose one but I actually kinda liked ratchet and clank 2 better than this mainly the story line but this game was better in every other way WE LOVE YOU INSOMNIAC

Up You Arsenal shows the potential of the PS2 hardwR. I had so much fun with this game the first time around but I find it hard to have fun with the game nowadays. Definitey the best selection of weapons in the whole franchise (except the RYNOCIRATOR) and exciting levels.

This game contains my favorite weapon in ANY video game, and I've played a lot. You don't know true destruction until you've seen the Quack-O-Blitzer.

3 Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy

The Precursor Legacy brought me back to 3D platformers after I lost Super Mario 64. The adventure and Jak's ability to channel eco really inspired my imagination. The final boss fight was also really epic when Jak uses the blue eco jump pad on the dark eco silo and you see that Jak is on top of the world.

This is great, this should be number 1 it is better than jak 2 or 3 (no hate towards 2 or 3 both great games)

BEAUTIFUL environment! Super fun and relaxing. Takes me back to my childhood

4 Jak 3

A year after the success of Jak 2, Naughtydog released Jak 3. It was the same sandbox game that Jak 2 was only with more gimicky missions, poor adition of weapons, and a plot that wasn't exciting at all. I was really disappointed with this game. I was really hoping for a different genre for NaughtyDog to combine platforming with other than sandbox.

I love this game. Very similar to Jak 2 but extremely different to Jak 3. There is a lot of different things you can do through the game and overall it just feels like the perfect game of its time

5 Ratchet Deadlocked

My first Ratchet and Clank game. It wasn't clear to me that it was part of a video game series as Clank's name wasn't in the sequel. It was also a spin off and does not have the same platforming adventure as all the other games in the series. But the violence and humour made the game enjoyable.

6 Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando

The sequel to the original Ratchet and Clank game. Unfortunately, I loathed the space segments as the ship was on auto pilot if anything but with speed boosts and barrow rolls. This was almost as terrible as the sixaxis controls in Tools of Destruction.

7 Ratchet & Clank

The original Ratchet and Clank had great level design and platforming which wasn't overshadowed by the weapon upgrade system. The adventure was really fun and you don't experience the same sense of adventure in the later games.

A really great game, challengeing but not frustrating like the jak games are because of their difficulty.

8 Jak X: Combat Racing

The vehicles that were unlocked later were useless and not worth unlocking. I don't like racing games and the vehicles did not help at all.

Ratchet is also an unlockable character in this game, he is wearing his deadlocked armour without the helmet

If this game didn't carry the Jak label/brand with it, it never would have been a Greatest Hits game

9 Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters

I liked it as a game but as a port on to the PS2, it is another story. Let's just say that whatever is made for the PSP, stays on the PSP.

10 Secret Agent Clank

This has the same issues as Size Matters for PS2 but worse because it wasn't the original developers that ported this game. I couldn't go back for the skill points because of the long loading times and it was just too confusing.
