16 Video Games That Would Make Perfect Animated Movies

14. Jak And Daxter

Jak and Daxter's games were published by the Computer Entertainment division of Sony, a company which also has its very own movie studio. How convenient is that? What's more, the core Jak and Daxter series forms a complete trilogy with a slight Star Wars flavor to it, insofar as it opens up with a more lighthearted instalment before taking a darker turn in its middle chapter before finally reaching a conclusion in the third. It also bears the hallmarks of a film that would no doubt appeal to kids, starring a cool hero accompanied by a character who seems born to fit the mould of "child appeal," for better or worse. Really, why isn't this already happening?
