In a move that is not surprising to anyone, and that has
been leaked multiple times before its official announcement, the Jak and Daxter
HD Trilogy is coming to Playstation 3 this February.
The contents of the
package are each of the three original Jak and Daxter games.
With the last game in the
package (Jak 3) being released in 2004, it does give each of the games a sense
of nostalgia, which is ultimately what Sony wants to happen. On the Playstation Blog (where this
story was officially dropped), the response has been overwhelmingly good, which
in my opinion is what is needed at this point in time. As of right now, the video game market
has slowed down, but a large resurgence will come in February with releases like
Mass Effect 3, Bioshock Infinite and (a bit later) Max Payne 3, and I wouldn’t be
surprised if Sony timed the Jak and Daxter Collection to release at that time
to boost first party support.
