I think he's great in all the games, but 3 is by far my favorite. Not only is it my favorite for story and gameplay, but he's finally found a balance in his personality. People that complain about Jak in the second game have to take into consideration that he's just come out of the place that's been torturing him with Dark Eco for two years, and that Dark Eco really altered him. So when people say they don't like him in that game because he's angsty and mad, I'm like "yeah??? dark eco experiments??? for two years???? was he supposed to be okay?!?!?!" lmao And yeah, I heard that one was terrible. I just try to forget it exists. :)
