![]() The series had never felt so smooth and it boasted the biggest and best worlds to date. The duo’s debut on the PS3 was the next logical step as the world’s greatest galaxy savers got a pleasant technical upgrade in every department. Ratchet & Clank continued to bond and forge an even stronger friendship and they help to save the galaxy once again, although they do so with a very underwhelming end of game boss fight. The second game in the franchise introduced tons of new weapons, weapons levels for each gun, and really upped the chaos from the first game. Plus, we got a great narrative inspection of Clank, learning a great deal about his backstory with some emotional twists here and there. It worked brilliantly and along with the usual array of zany weapons made R&C feel fresh once more. They did this with some mind-bending time logic puzzles and centered the theme of the game around this idea. Insomniac went back to the drawing board after Tools of Destruction and devised a way to reinvent the formula and differentiate this title from previous ones. Size Matters did everything a great R&C needed to be amazing and even managed to retain the cool space battles welcomed in Going Commando – a great feat for a portable game. Going with the PSP version here, Size Matters wasn’t even developed by Insomniac Games, it was High Impact Games, and they still delivered something incredible.Ī fully-fledged R&C title that showed the capabilities of Sony’s first portable console. Whereas A Crack In Time innovated and tried to push the series forward, Into The Nexus felt like a clear step back. Also, the story and new villain didn’t scream “memorable” at us. Which to say this isn’t a bad thing, but a shorter length and a feeling of familiarity bogs down the quality here. It looks great, feels great, but it really felt like an adventure we’d had before. The first of the “core” games to feature on our list, Into The Nexus is a great game. The fundamentals are still solid, and there’s lots of classic R&C gunplay here, but the loss of platforming and a massive, coherent worlds to explore game brings it down compared to other entries. ![]() In the same way, that comparative series Jak and Daxter took a darker turn with a great emphasis on combat and fighting, Ratchet & Clank: Deadlocked felt like that – a step in the wrong direction. Nefarious doesn’t really make sense, and it feels like a much dumbed-down, kid-friendly version of the classic formula – with basically no story. The notion of Ratchet, Clank, Captain Qwark, and Dr. Ratchet & Clank: All 4 OneĪll 4 One retains many of the elements that Ratchet & Clank was built on but doesn’t do them that well or make them that interesting. ![]() Still a decent game in its own right and a good outing for the PSP, but not a game considered highly. Secret Agent ClankĬute and considered in its approach, Secret Agent Clank feels like the kind of game people think they want but realize it’s not as good without Clank’s better half.
