* Krew's mission to protect the explosives experts on the trip through the sewers is a ''massive'' pain in the ass, though also often looked on fondly for two reasons: one, you get the [[{{BFG}} Peacemaker]] at the end of it, and two: [[EnsembleDarkhorse it has Jinx in it]]. For an NPC that only features in one mission, he absolutely steals the show, with Cutter Mitchell delivering hilarious lines in Jinx's exaggerated gangster persona so that he comes off as an asshole in the most endearing and forgivable of ways.


Added DiffLines:

* The scene players you can unlock have descriptive titles referring to what goes on in the cutscenes. Two of the early ones, back to back, are ''Daxter Gets a Mouthful'' and '''''Daxter Rides the Pipe'''''. The dirty humor in that is astounding and funny all at once.

* This blurb on the back of the ''Jak II'' box is amusing just for its bluntness, especially after the E-rated and innocent ''Precursor Legacy'':
-->After two years in prison, Jak's mad as [[PrecisionFStrike hell]] and he's out for revenge.

* It has to be said that in general the sheer tonal whiplash of going from Jak I to this game can be ''hysterical'' in and of itself. While the 2000s era of games were famous for employing DarkerAndEdgier, the series' consistent witty writing that carries over from the first game and the ''immediacy'' of how fast Jak II's edgier setting hits you makes for one of the most genuinely entertaining examples of a jarring shift in tone between games.

** The intro: Daxter finding Jak, continuing to be the lighthearted jokester he always was, and pleading with Jak to say something just this once. After an ''entire game'' as a SilentProtagonist in a lighthearted platformer, hearing the first words to come out of his mouth is truly ''wild''.
--->'''Jak:''' ''([[SuddenlyShouting yelling]], complete with a ScareChord)'' [[WhamLine I'm gonna KILL Praxis!]]
*** The fact that Daxter is [[LargeHam still]] [[SnarkyNonHumanSidekick just Daxter]] is a large part of what helps keep the mood ''incredibly'' fun even with the [[ColdBloodedTorture genuinely horrifying]] context of Jak's situation, just by proxy of having him bounce off of the [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge understandably pissed off]] protagonist. He just responds to the aforementioned outburst by covering Jak's mouth and telling him to keep quiet, and [[AudienceSurrogate is as shocked as the player likely is]] at seeing his lifelong and previously squeaky clean best friend suddenly enter and come down from a SuperpoweredEvilSide.
---->'''Daxter:''' ''What'' the ''heck'' was that?! Sheesh, remind me not to piss you off!

* The first encounter with the Girl Behind the Curtain (Keira). Jak didn't even know who she was initially, but LoveAtFirstSight kicks in, and the cutscene ends with him stunned with a LoveStruck face, with Daxter trying to get his attention.

* Daxter getting blasted in the face with grummy water, and Torn's non-chanty reaction to it.
* After blowing up a shipment of Dark Eco inside the palace, and barely escaping through a window, a disoriented Daxter states that the city has too much excitement, and they should move back into the country.
** This leads to a BrickJoke in ''Wastelander'' where Tess states she and Daxter should move into the country to escape the excitement of the war.
* The racing contract. "[[BreakingTheFourthWall GAME RIGHTS?!]]" Can double as an [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome MoA]] when you learn that Creator/MaxCasella completely improvised the whole thing.
* The first encounter with the Girl Behind the Curtain (Keira). Jak didn't even know who she was initially, but LoveAtFirstSight kicks in, and the cutscene ends with him stunned with a LoveStruck face, with Daxter trying to get his attention.
* "I... AM PECKER!" Even funnier about ''Pecker'' is that he's voiced by Chris ''Cox''!
-->'''Pecker''': Yes, I know. My mother, she was... very vindictive!
* The part when the protagonists are properly introduced to Tess, where Daxter gets drunk off his ass is hilarious! "I LOVE YOU, MAN!"
* There is a part when Jak and Daxter had to gather up three {{MacGuffin}}s. The cutscenes when you retrieve them are all amusing, but the funniest (''after'' [[ThatOneLevel the infamous cliff climb]]) is the one where Daxter grabs a tiny gear off a giant machine that has a lot of moving parts but no apparent purpose. At first, nothing happens, but as Daxter turns and starts to walk away, the machine stops and falls apart. A cheerfully oblivious Daxter then says "They'll never know we were here."
** Even funnier [[OhCrap is Jak's reaction]], where he's first shown with both hands on his face in shock, then tries to tell Daxter off, but a gigantic cog rolls past him, and causes him to blank out for a second.
-->'''Daxter:''' (''grabs the vibrating artifact'') Whoa, this puppy's got some vibration to it... (''rubbing it on his chest'') [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar This baby will put a smile on your face]]!
* There's this exchange between Jak and Daxter while doing a job for Krew in the sewers.
-->'''Jak:''' Where would you be without me, Dax?
-->'''Daxter:''' Well Jak, I probably wouldn't be two feet tall, fuzzy, and running around in a sewer without a pair of pants... God, I miss pants.
** Continues in the next game: "You know how they lift, and cradle? Ahhh..."
* When Jak and Daxter collect the second Piece of the Seal of Mar at the Dig, Daxter realizes what will happen [[ButtMonkey if he goes to grab it]] and has Jak go instead. [[ForegoneConclusion Guess what happens when Jak grabs the Piece.]]
-->'''Daxter''': It's a curse, isn't it?!
* Near the end of the game, Jak uses his jetboard to land on a cargo crate, and disconnect it to destroy some Metal Head eggs below. The main issue is that ''he and Daxter'' are on top of it, and try desperately to hang on as the cable collapse. He finally grabs the end of the cable... only to note that the crate is just a foot below him, with Daxter clinging to his leg.
* You can overhear two Krimzon Guards several times, and some of what they say is quite funny.
-->'''Guard 1''': You [[DirtyCop collect your bribes this week?]]\\
'''Guard 2''': Shhh!
* The three commercials that show tourists with a tour guide showing them Haven City. HilarityEnsues.
** For the first one, the tour begins with the tour guide explaining Jak and Daxter's adventures until all of a sudden, a [[JumpScare Metal Head]] emerges from the roof and gets a victim.
-->'''Tour Guide''': Wow! No one has ever seen a Metal Head so close! So get your cameras out, folks! 'Cause once he's full, he won't be back for a while!
** For the second one, the tour guide gives the Peace Maker to an Asian tourist.
-->'''Tour Guide''': Uh-oh! Here comes the Krimzon Guard!\\
'''Asian Tourist''': Is he part of the tour? [he gets hit by the Krimzon Guard]\\
'''Tour Guide''': No. He's not part of the tour.
** For the final commercial, the tour guide explains to the tourists of Baron Praxis. He offered a black tourist to test his Dark Jak powers. Since he didn't have Dark Eco, it didn't work.
