Smart move.

PS3 is still too expensive for a Jak game.

Surprised Ratchet made the jump to PS3 already.  Not that I'm complaining, I love the Ratchet games but the system is still $399.

99% sure it's an April's Fool joke.  J&D isn't popular enough for Sony to make such an investment.

Didn't Daxter do very well on PSP?

It makes total sense for Sony to release this game on these platforms.  If it's an April Fools joke, they should have made it a bit more unbelievable.  I wouldn't be surprised if it's legit news with poor timing.

Plus they've put a gun into a platforming franchise.  If that isn't real, I don't know what is.

ugh I was actually a bit excited especially since Ready at Dawn stated recently that they're reconsidering PSP development again (http://www.joystiq.com/2008/12/16/ready-at-dawn-maybe-we-should-reconsider-psp-development/) after  they ceased it by returning the dev kits. :-\

Daxter (and GoW:CoO) > Size Matters PSP

Yeah.  Size Matters was kinda ehhhhhhh...

PSP = Place to give up and coming devs a shot without giving them a budget.  Then if they're good slowly move them to console games with budgets.  If they're average then keep them on handhelds.  I want Ready at Dawn's next game to be on a console, and not some waste of time wii port.
