The first edition was released December 11, 2001, eight days after The Precursor Legacy's North American debut. The strategy guide was printed in the United States, and distributed across North America (United States and Canada), and in the United Kingdom, originally listed at USD 14.99, CAD 19.95, and GBP 9.99, respectively. It advertises 'All 101 Power Cells Located!' on the front, and 'Secret power cell revealed!' on the binding. The front cover of the strategy guide utilizes the same art from the front cover of the NTSC-U/C version of The Precursor Legacy, with Prima's 'Official Strategy Guide' red banner along the top. The various promotional renders and exclusive artwork are original of Naughty Dog. The design and layout is credited to Tim Lindquist. Each chapter is preceded by the game map with the relevant location circled, and starts with 'Sage Advice' from Samos Hagai, listing the various prerequisites and requirements, as well as a stamped 'postcard' and notes page from Daxter. Each hub location includes brief descriptions of the new characters. The book starts out acquainting the reader with the various gameplay elements, characters, commodities, and factions in the game. The book is chronicled with sticky notes and listicles of commentary by Daxter, and is illustrated with in-game screenshots along the way, as well as decorative renders in the margins. The dialogue is original of Dave Winding, however, and not written by writers at Naughty Dog. The strategy guide is authored by ' Daxter, with Dave Winding', according to the book, and as such, 'Daxter' narrates throughout. It was also inducted into the Library of Congress upon publication.

No other early PS2 title could match the memories that both I and an army of young fans created within this gameвЂ™s universe.Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy: Prima's Official Strategy Guide is a strategy guide and canonical source of information for The Precursor Legacy by Prima Games, written by Dave Winding, published by Random House Inc., officially licensed by Sony Interactive Entertainment, with contributions by Naughty Dog, Inc. Its own thing, whereas its sequels all focused on adapting to the general audienceвЂ™s interests, like shooters and angsty stories. Which became a bit of a must as the series developed.Д«ut the mini-games, puzzles, and platforming were exciting by themselves. Jak and DaxterвЂ™s quest to save the world from being flooded with Dark Eco was straightforward.Д«ut also well-written, and its tone was at just the right spot between serious and humorous to match its aesthetic. It was ambitious, presenting players with one of the first seamless open worlds in a console game, impressive graphics, and incredibly varied gameplay. The original Jak and Daxter was a colorful and wild experience unlike anything seen before. And I believe it does deserve the #1 spot. Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy (2001)ДЄt last, weвЂ™ve arrived at the game that started the craze.
