Be quiet. Please, once again direct your eyes to my previous post. I in no way stated that it was the best. I stated that it was one of the best. Honestly.

Anyway, I do wish that Jak and Daxter get a new game some time soon.

The Lost Frontier is the rumored next game in the Jak and Daxter series of video games.

On April 21, 2006, a trademark was registered with the USPTO for "JAK AND DAXTER: THE LOST FRONTIER". The description given for the use of this trademark was "computer game software and video game software" as well as "operating an online real-time game for others over global and local area computer networks".

When contacted by the online publication IGN about the game, Sony replied stating "As of right now, there is no official announcement regarding the title".[1] This statement can be taken both to mean that the title is in development and Sony wants to keep it under wraps, or that the title is just one of many SCEA is considering working on.

An interview with Naughty Dog Co-President Evan Wells perhaps squashed the idea that a Jak and Daxter game of any sort is currently in production by Naughty Dog. When asked why the game studio decided to create Uncharted instead of a next-gen Jak and Daxter game, Evan Wells replied saying:
“ "Of course [the idea of] doing another Jak and Daxter game is very exciting for us here at Naughty Dog still, but we wanted to do something fresh and brand new to keep our personal interests peaked. We've done four games in the Jak and Daxter universe in five or six years and we wanted to take a break from it and put a new franchise out there [which is] hopefully successful--and we want to do some sequels there too--but yeah, I think we'll probably go back to Jak and Daxter at one point."[2] ”

Breathing life back into The Lost Frontier rumors, EGM is reporting that, according to their industry spies, Naughty Dog will start work on a new Jak & Daxter game after work on Uncharted: Drake's Fortune wraps up.[3] If true, there is no indication that The Lost Frontier will be the given subtitle.

Jak PSP

Speculation surrounding Jak PSP began when the résumé of Robin Atkin Downes was found. In the résumé it was listed that in a game titled "Jak PSP," Downes had provided his voice for a character named Captain Phoenix [1]; a new character to the series if there is any basis to this claim.

Downes has had many jobs in the industry,[4] working for many reputable media companies and so it seems somewhat unlikely that he would fake a part of his resume.

Shortly after the story first broke on the Playstation Underground boards, Downes' résumé was revised[5] and all references to Jak PSP were removed. Also removed were references to a game called Big, the internal name of a game currently in production now being called Uncharted: Drake's Fortune. Jak PSP is also is listed in the portfolio of Mark Koerner.[6]

Further fueling the rumors is that the Naughty Dog website has, in the past, listed multiple requests for PSP programmers. [2]

Although anything known about Jak PSP at this point-in-time is based entirely on circumstantial evidence, and Naughty Dog has yet to confirm or deny anything regarding the title, it is possible to infer from the facts at hand that Jak PSP is, or at the very least was, in development.
I also read somewhere that someone rumored about the Lost frontier being for ps2/ps3.

Hey! Did anyone hear about the Jak and Daxter movie Trilogy DVD? It's the entire Jak series in a 90 minute movie!

There was a contest giving out these DVDs, but its over now, and I tried looking on eBay, but I didn't find any.

I want it too, but unless you go beg Sony I don't think we'll be getting it.

They're going to be cutting a lot out I see. Also, Jak X is out. So, whats they big deal in getting a demo for it?

thunderxgeo · 11/05/07, 04:55 PM

Although Jak X is the last game naughty dog are going to make in the Jak and daxter series. They were awesome games though

~~Altair~~ · 11/05/07, 04:56 PM

When was Jak X made the last game for Jak? Naughty Dog rumored to be making another one for PS3 after they finish their current game. Read the above posts.

What you mean they're going to cut a lot out? I'm assuming they'll render the gameplay sequences into short clips, id that's what you're implying.

I do agree with what you said about the Jak X demo, the stupid part is that you can't play it on a regular DVD player because of that demo.

.....I still want it.

~~Altair~~ · 11/05/07, 05:01 PM

Ummm, there is no way they can make a decent including everything Jak movie in 90 minutes.

Staulmaster · 11/05/07, 06:27 PM

Well, the cutscenes themselves aren't that long, and they'd just have to replace the gameplaye sequences with clips made from scratch, which would take maybe 5 to 10 minutes each or something...

It's not that farfetched, I'm sure Naughty Dog could pull it off.

~~Altair~~ · 11/05/07, 06:29 PM

Yeah, the Jak story would take about 3 hours to tell for just the first game. >>

Staulmaster · 11/05/07, 06:39 PM

You mean with all the cutscenes put together plus the gameplay sequences? I'd say it would take half an hour to an hour.

Actually, it does seem to be a bit long now that I think about it, but there's no way that the first one would last three hours.

I still want it, though, the story was one of the series' strongest points.

~~Altair~~ · 11/05/07, 06:40 PM

Have you even play Jak and Daxter? It was like a 12 hour game...

Staulmaster · 11/05/07, 06:44 PM

Yes, I played Jak and Daxter, and while it was somewhat long (although anyone would be able to finish it within a day), most of the length comes from the gameplay itself. Treading around the world, collecting orbs and power cells, looking around at the scenery. In the movie, they'll certainly omit the long gameplay elements and make them much shorter, to advance the plot more quickly.
