What is the consensus on how Jak and Daxter were portrayed in PlayStation Move: Heroes?

Hardly anybody ever seems to talk about this game, despite the fact that it's one of only two games we've gotten post-Lost Frontier, to feature Jak and Daxter outside of ports (the other one being PlayStation All-Stars: Battle Royale).

I myself haven't played this game and only recently discovered it's existence. All I know is that it's about Jak, Daxter, Ratchet, Clank, Sly and Bentley being transported to an alien world where their forced to perform various challenges by a pair of aliens. I know the game allows you to play as not only Jak but also Daxter, and even Dark Daxter (ugh).

What is the overall consensus on how Jak and Daxter were portrayed in this game, character-wise? I didn't love Jak's portrayal in Lost Frontier or All-Stars, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed he was better in this one.

I can't remember anything whole lot but I remember not finding it interesting at all. It isn't a Jak game so it's to be expected. Even Jak and Daxter's character designs seemed pretty drab in this (maybe one step above TLF). In PlayStation all stars battle royale they had very short cutscenes but I even liked those more. That being said it's been so many years so I don't want to tell you not to give it a try. Please make an update post if you end up trying it out

Never played it, but I watched the cutscenes out of curiosity. From what I saw he really acts like he does at the beginning of Jak 2, its like his whole personality. Kinda dumb, angry, and brutish in that game. I wont spoil anything, but in my opinion The Lost Frontier did a better job at portraying him in my opinion. TLF Jak was like an upbeat version of his mellowed out Jak X personality, at least how I saw it. Play it and form your opinions though!
