I finished Jak 2 and that the game was really good, then I popped R&C2 in and after around 15 minutes already engaged in a gunfight that was more exciting than any from Jak2, was exploring areas that were more interesting, etc. They are both great games, and both tackle similar gameplay ideas in their own ways, but R&C2 comes out on top in all regards...it really was a much better game
For me Jak 2 >>> R&C2.
Maybe R&C gunfights were better, but Jak's combat also nicely meshed melee, real time weapon switching, faster movement, fiercer enemyes - resulting overall much more exciting.
R&C levels, again, may have looked more interesting to someone.
But when it comes to level structure, Jak was far superior. Jak had complex levels, many ideas, great platforming; R&C was mostly flat roads and the little platforming avaliable was only mediocre.
Jak meshed better its different gameplay elements, plus more varied missions objectives, where R&C an arbitrary mix of minigames.
R&C wins on the minigames and addons department. The arena and racing were especially good, plus the ton of weapons to aquire.
Both Maximos were good too =)
I'd add Kya (unpolished and slower paced but stil nice) to the list as well.
