Firstly, with the exception of General Azimuth, a Lombax hellbent on reversing time and bringing the Lombaxes back to their original home, every character you encounter is uninteresting or annoying. There are a couple of other standout new weapons, my favourite being the Sonic Erupter - basically a frog that burps at your foes, destroying them with what I'm assuming is really bad breath.īut what good is all this smooth gameplay and satisfying progression and exploration when the story doesn't hook you? In theory, the story should be compelling - it's Ratchet and Clank's mission to reunite with each other - but in reality there are a lot of problems. I have to admit, annihilating your enemies in this fasion made me grin on multiple occasions. The RYNO V is incredibly satisfying in its visuals, spitting little rockets everwhere in a spectular fireworks show, and its audio: Fire the gun for more than a second or two and Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture blasts out in triumph. It feels good to them and does make a refreshing change. Enter the hover boots, which let you both glide down onto platforms and speed along large environments. At the beginning of the game, Ratchet is not with Clank and so he has to find new ways to navigate without our favourite little robot's assistance. Movement and gunplay are refined yet again, and this is the smoothest playing Ratchet game so far (in terms of game mechanics, not framerate - compared to Tools this game chugs a lot). Mini planets, where you navigate a small spherical world defeating enemies or finding collectables, are an enjoyable way to spend some downtime, and it's satisfying to see a whole sector totally completed - all missions done, all collectables collected.

and do side missions, and the first time you visit a planet, you manually fly into it, which does actually add to the immersion and makes you feel like you are a free agent hopping around the galaxy.Īnd a lot of this is fun.

Go from planet to planet, engage in some side space battles in between, upgrade your gear and weapons, return to planets you've visited to find secrets.Īnd this is technically still the case, but this time there are these hub worlds called Sectors where you can fly your ship around, visit mini planets, fight bosses etc.

While narratively and stylistically Tools of Destruction was less satirical and more earnest than the PS2 saga, structurally it was very similar. Let's be clear, there is a big formula change for this one. So why do I feel so empty inside, having just finished A Crack in Time?
RATCHET A CRACK IN TIME SERIES
Before I started this review series I had played the Future trilogy on release and I had really fond memories - and I distinctly remember A Crack in Time being a real step up from Tools of Destruction. Ratchet & Clank Future: Quest for Booty (not reviewing, it was fine) Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexusĭamn, this was a let down. Ratchet & Clank (2002) Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal Ratchet: Deadlocked Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction The old /r/patientgamers Essential Games Listįor those new to my reviews, I am am playing through these Ratchet & Clank games and posting my thoughts as I finish each one: Please use flair to display what games you’re currently playing, not a punch line, username, tag, URL, or signature.
