Pros: Great gameplay, stunning visuals, and is simply fun
Cons: Not a very long game
The bottom line: It is simply fun, combined with stunning next generation visuals and gameplay assure this installment of Ratchet and Clank will be the first of many great games on the PS3
It took me a while to begin gameplay as I was simply in awe with the visual content. Graphics in this game are the best I have seen yet. The gameplay is also remarkable, which makes this a rare combination. The newest installment of Ratchet and Clank provides hours of entertaining gameplay and will keep you wanting more. With a wide variety of weapons, each yielding deadly upgrades and abilities, the customization aspect will take you more then one play through to perfect. Although it was fairly short the story was fulfilling in the regards that you are entertained from beginning to end. I am pleased to see that the creators have not "sold out" if you will; the humor within the game is simply priceless and a trademark of the franchise. This quote comes to mind as an example of the humor, "Your humble Dictator Demands You To....ext ext". You cannot help but smirk at the ridiculous comments hidden in background audio and of course presented by captain quark himself. What I am trying to get at is the game is simply fun. It seems like a simple concept but to often in modern gaming things get complex and serious and the gamers who follow seem to treat it as work. Ratchet and Clank has just a touch of "old school" basic gaming and when combined with it's stunning next generation perks it creates a masterpiece. The replayability of the game is present with the bonus of dicorving glod bolts which unlock various videos and the ability to restart the game with all of your previous items. Whats best? There is a hint that this wont be the last of the know legendary franchise. To think, people used to love a Hedgehog or a Plumber...
