I played Jak and Daxter some more today, and it started to get more entertaining. At first, I thought I had to get 20 power cells to access the next area, but that's not really the case. One I cleared the vents as one of the first objectives, I'm told to go to Misty Island by boat to accomplish another objective.

But the boat operator is in a jungle area, and you have to go retrieve him first. So the jungle becomes the next main area to explore. And I like it. There are bridges with large gaps for a little actual platforming, more enemies than before, and better graphical detail. Overall, I think I have around 15 power cells. There's 100 total in the game. Which leads me to believe this might not be such a long title... but as long as its fun, I don't care.

I played some more of FFX-2 and got one of the three disguises I needed, along with accomplishing a couple other sidequests. More importantly, I leveled up and learned several new abilities. Rikku is now very skilled as a Black Mage, probably the strongest overall character because of this. I also have Paine as a white mage, with several useful abilities, including Life, and all three levels of Cure.
