The fisherman isn't just voiced by some random guy, that's actually Kevin Conroy, voice of Batman in Batman: TAS/Justice League/etc. I think it's his only role in the game too. Weird for such a well known guy, I guess he's just a huge Naughty Dog fan.

Last time I played, I was missing one orb in Sentinel Beach. Of course it was one I couldn't see behind that loving waterfall. I mistakenly assumed there would only be four for some reason. :argh:

I... didn't see a pile of anything at the bottom of that cliff to catch the egg. HD hiccup?

There was no pile in the original version either - just a bit of brown straw texture strewn across the ground as if to indicate a bed of straw.

Here's another look at the dynamic music of Jak & Daxter!
Forbidden Jungle has two tracks, for inside and outside of the temple, with 5 and 3 variations each.

Sentinel Beach only has three variations, but I love the Bird Watcher's mix.

Yeah, I have to say the A-Grav Zoomer levels in this game are pretty nice. By and large it doesn't control too different from your on-foot character, just a bit faster, and there are neat things you can't do on foot like water-skimming and those big huge jumps.
