Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: Ratchet and Clank is going to be the superstar platform action game of the season on the PS2, if not all formats. Featuring a pair of wacky robots in a quest to save the universe, it may offer the same old basic platform scenario--run around, elude or destroy enemies, jump, and negotiate treacherously dynamic environments--but it has a number of things going for it that place it among the best titles ever in this genre. The feature that will strike you first is the terrific art direction. Set in a science fiction future, the game has a beautifully executed retro cartoon look (think old Warner Brothers). The attention lavished on every detail, from architecture to character design, makes for a world that feels complete and real. This extends to the cut scenes, which feature a variety of colourful characters given vivid life with excellent voice acting. Then there's the sheer size and level of interactivity of the environments; a particularly stunning moment came when our character was knocked off a skyscraper, but, instead of perishing, landed on a ledge and was able to seamlessly navigate a whole separate section of the game. Another moment of truth came when we aimed our blaster at one of the vehicles whizzing by in the sky. These vehicles were just pretty wallpaper, we thought, but no, the thing blew up. In fact, nearly every thing you see is destructible or responsive in some way: you can jump up trees, scuttle over walkways, smash boxes, and climb up ledges. And the control scheme is just complex enough to keep things interesting with multiple weapons and the like, without bogging down with too many features. While the routine of finding and destroying enemy robots may get tedious after a while, Ratchet and Clank keeps things interesting with the many metamorphoses of Clank (who takes on forms that surprise even himself) and cool weapons like the "Glove of Doom", which unleashes armies of tiny Clanks, and shifting 1st-robot, 3rd-robot points of view. This deserves to be the bestselling platform action game of the year. --David Stoesz Customer Reviews

 Rating: - This isn't just a game... it's a crafted classicEven though I never bought this game off amazon, I bought this game a while ago and there's just one word to describe it - brilliant. It's like Sony's version of The Legend Of Zelda, only set in the future. At the beginning of the game, clank crash lands on ratchet's home planet, veldin. Ratchet goes to get clank, who's sleeping. As soon as clank wakes up, he shows ratchet an infobot, showing ratchet about an evil plan by Supreme Executive Chairman Drek which is about him destroying all the planets in the solana galaxy. In the game, you explore 19 massive worlds, full of things to do. Mostly in the game, you play as ratchet, but at 2 parts in the game (yes, 2 - isn't enough) you get to play as clank. You get loads of weapons and ... Read More: Rating:  - GoodThis is game is undoubtedly good, but I feel it is not quite as good as the ratchet and clank 2 and 3. The gmaplay and camera controls are not quite as detailed. Also, the enemies are all slightly samey. Ratchet and Clank does still have many good points: A great storyline, loveable characters and a huge array of weapons. However, it doesn't quite match up to the newer games. Rating: - The second best series I have ever knownThe R&C series has kept me entertained for years and yeasr on end. The first game in the series was no exception to the franchises success. Chairman Drek's world is too polluted and he needs to find another suitable world to live on; so he goes out destroying other worlds to get the neccessary parts to make his own. In the robot factories where he is making his minions there is an error and a new robot is made, small and intelligent. Clank races and away and is pursued by guards. Clank crashes on Ratchet's world and pursuades Ratchet to help him find a hero stop Drek. Later in the game we that Captain Qwark (the hero) is working for Drek and can not help. R&C go on to stop Drek by themselves. The game is packed ful of fun and extras, ... Read More: Rating: - A suberb start to the seriesI'm a big fan of action platformers and I can happily say I wasn't disappointed with this one. The game all evolves round 2 characters Ratchet and Clank.Clank is some sort of high IQ robot that guides the big eared tiger sorta character Ratchet. They must work together to stop Chairman Drek from killing off worlds to save us own. In the game Ratchet is able to upgrade his abilities via Clank in the form of bolts, Bolts are the currency in the game. The level design is fun and has massively playable areas, with plenty to do and kill and interact with. The graphics and sound are both extremely good and very well thought out and mirror the game perfectly. The upgradable items as well are imaginative and different to ... Read More: Rating: - Ratchet and clank, BEST GAME EVER!Ratchet and clank has to be one of the best games ever! It has brilliant graphics,cool weapons and gadgets, loads of amazing worlds and challanges and much more! I can't see a bad side to this game. No really, I can't. You can be both ratchet and clank, but clank is only playable when ratchet can't be used. This was my first ps2 game, and I've got all the other ratchet and clank games. If you love weapons and gadgets, flying spaceships and generally blowing stuff up, then you'll love this game, but I think this game is good for everyone! |
