Excellent, got to love the dune buggy.  

Yeah.... great.... now if only you didn\'t have to pay for subscription to get it, it would be even greater.

 I heard basic membership covers it, and that is free.

If not there are other ways to get the movie.

Other ways? That\'s not telling much. You mean Kazaa? Or breaking into Gamespot HQ with a gun and asking them nicely for the video on a CD?

Wouldn\'t it be great if those Jax3  buggys were somehow intergrated with Ratchet and Clanks online modes?  

Jax and ratchet online combat

First i meust say... Damn it Fastson... now you have made me want to play through Jak 2 again when i get home ... and i was meant to devote some practice time on Pro Evolution Soccer 3 as well .

Second
Fan-Fooking-tastic, love what they did with Jak 2... and this new on looks to build on it even further.

Dune buggys , and Rag doll animation... me likey.

Good.  Did you ever finish Jak II? Very good game, though hard in some parts.

Nah, trying to find one single file on KaZaA is like... impossible
The other one might work..
I\'m a member of GSC, I can get the file for you (and anyone else who is interested), the files are 299mb (high - quicktime) or 137mb (low - WMV).

Since Naughty Dog and Insomniac share so much tech (and other stuff of course - see those Jak II posters in R&C2 and vice versa), I would not be surprised if we see the buggy.

But Jak 3 and R&C3 working together online? We can only dream.

Well gamespot have a developer interview with Insomniac, and they say expect a surprise regarding an online mode at E3. And i can see it being them online compatible with each other, all they need to do is plonk the same characters, vehicles  and the odd map or two in both games, then Sony would be innovating again

And it looks like Insomniac are starting on PS3

That\'s a bit too big for me. It\'s not that my connection can\'t handle it, but it\'s just that (I\'ve said this before, haven\'t I?) I have to pay for every MB I download off foreign servers.

UPDATE: Gamespy has more on Jak 3 and R&C3.

That... sucks.
