* Crowning X of Y:
** MomentOfAwesome - Jak vs. Floating War Factory. Jak wins.
* ** FunnyMoments - [[Funny/JakAndDaxter Several]], but ''Jak 3'''s [[TheReveal Reveal]] probably takes the cake.
* ** HeartwarmingMoment - The "find my son" scene from ''Jak 3'', followed by a true testament to Daxter's friendship.
** *** Also: "I'm proud of ya, Dax."
* ** CrowningMusicOfAwesome - Plenty of examples, but ''Jak II'''s final boss music is tops.tops.
* CompleteMonster - Kor, the Metal Head leader. He engaged in a siege against Haven City for decades just to get the Precursor Stone Mar hid inside, so he could [[spoiler: feed on the last precursor life force.]] And that's not even counting the numerous atrocities he committed in the process. Errol also fits this in the third game, having gone from a mentally unstable [[TheDragon Dragon]] to an AxCrazy OmnicidalManiac. It's not like he had any redeeming features before the transformation either.
* DracoInLeatherPants - Erol in the second game.
* EnsembleDarkhorse - Jinx only appeared in three or four missions, and we didn't see him at all outside of them. ''Why'' does he have so many fangirls?
* FollowTheLeader: It is by no mere coincidence that ''Jak II'' was made considerably [[DarkerAndEdgier darker]] than its predecessor and was released around the time people would just be finishing up ''[[GrandTheftAuto Vice City]]'' and needing something to placate their sandboxing fix. The first game is also a blatant ''SuperMario64'' clone, but it's more forgivable than most due to the game's absolutely exquisite presentation.
* GoodBadBugs: The barriers in ''Jak II'' give you an interesting one: until ''you'' get a Security Pass, ''no one'' can get through... including the Krimzon Guard.
* HilariousInHindsight: Jak 3 takes place largely in a desert setting. Guess where the third Uncharted is taking place...
* MisBlamed - Many fans hate High Impact because of ''TLF'', even though the game's writers work for '''Naughty Dog''' and the scriptwriter is the same one that did the rest of the series.
* MostWonderfulSound: The roar of your Dark Eco maxing out in ''Jak X''. Hell yeah. Also the charging noise of the Wave Concussor.
* MoralEventHorizon - When exactly Baron Praxis crossed it is up for debate, but it's widely accepted that he ''crossed'' it.
** For ''Jak 3'', you easily could replace "Baron Praxis" with "Count Veger" in the above statement, though many point to his [[spoiler: gloating to Jak immediately after Damas' death]].
*** This Troper thinks of that as more of a KickTheDog moment and less of a MoralEventHorizon. [[YourMileageMayVary But that's entirely subjective]].
** In TLF, [[spoiler:this is the whole reason why Phoenix does his pirating thing in the first place. He quit his military post in the Aeropan air force because it was the Aeropans who, apparently, started the hideous, mind-altering Dark Warrior Project that Haven later picked up.]]
*** [[spoiler:Even better, the source of dark eco that Aeropa used to fuel the Project was none other than the huge crystal core of their planet, meaning that they were destroying their entire world in the process.]]
* [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment Big Lipped Alligator Mission]] - There's a mission in ''Jak 3'' where Daxter gets sucked into a computer and has to play a Pac-Man style game to find a MacGuffin. It evidently wasn't supposed to be ''that'' much of a stretch, since the character who put him into the computer [[BrainUploading was one with the computer himself]], but Daxter's ''whole body'' getting sucked through the ''screen''?
* CharacterDerailment - Some fans find it hard to cope with Erol's transformation from Baron Praxis's [[TheDragon Dragon]] and Jak's racing rival to a cybernetic LargeHam out to TakeOverTheWorld.
** And let's not even get started on what ''TLF'' did to Jak and, to a lesser extent, Keira.

* NightmareFuel - Dark Daxter, contrary to earlier reports, doesn't [[HulkSpeak talk like the Hulk]] and seems to be of his usual intelligence. What makes this fit the trope is that Daxter is [[OmnicidalManiac genocidal]] and [[AxCrazy bloodthirsty]] while dark, but everything he says sounds frighteningly ''in character''. Whether this was [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel intentional]] or not remains to be seen.
