Amazon.co.uk Review
In a nutshell:
If you enjoyed the multiplayer mode in Ratchet & Clank 3 then this is going to be right up your star system. It’s basically Annihilation Nation expanded to make a full game with a proper story mode and both split screen and online multiplayer. It's in the latter mode that Ratchet & Clank really shines.

The lowdown:
Finally shedding any pretence of being a platformer this new game has more in common with Unreal Tournament 2004 than it does Super Mario. Ratchet (Clank really isn’t in it much) has been press ganged into an ultra violent game show where he has to destroy everything in his path in order to pull in the ratings. To help him, he’s got a huge range of customisable weapons and a small pool of vehicles. The single player is perfectly fun on its own but the real draw is the co-operative mode and the online multiplayer with its myriad of different modes and options.

Most exciting moment:
Sitting atop a spider tank and commanding your army of bots to annihilate your best friend online.

Since you ask:
This is actually the fourth Ratchet & Clank game from developer Insomniac Games, who also did the three Spyro the Dragon games for the PSone. .

The bottom line:
Not a “proper” Ratchet & Clank but still a great multiplayer game.

4 out of 5 stars Good game, but has some problems...   April 21, 2008

Being obsessed with the R&C franchise, i purchased this game after finding out that tools of destruction would not be out on PS2. To be honest, i was expecting the usual adventure type game with a good plot/storyline, however, it was more like a shoot-em-up with a badly writen storyline tacked onto it. The controls have also changed a lot; contrary to the pevious games, the hoverbike races are now the most annoying and difficult to control, and there is no way of changing this. It also lacks the variety of the original R&C games, many of the planets seeme to have been copied-and-pasted with a few colours and enemies changed. Not the best game if you are looking for the classic adventure style, but good if you like sort-of-shoot-ems-ups.

I have every single Ratchet&Clank game for the PS2 and have bought them all the month they are released. This is the easiest game of the 4. It took me about 10hours to complite the game and I'm no PS geek. It's a great game and enjoyable to play again and again but it lacks the difficulty of ratchet&clank 1. I wanted more from Insomniac and I know this could be better, but still it gets 4/5 for the fun!


5 out of 5 stars ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!   October 11, 2006

This Game is slighty different from all of the other Ratchet and clank games but I recommend it because it's like Annihilation Nation throughout the whole game. A really excellent feature is that you can play through story mode in a two-player mode. The weapons upgrade 10 times, and upgrade up to level 99 after you buy the mega versions. You can also give them different modifications to give unlimited combinations!!!

Some weapons you get are:
WEAPON UPGRADE
Dual vipers Dual Raptors
Magma cannon Vulcan cannon
B-6 obliterator B-11 vaporizer
Mini turret Launcher Quasar Turret Launcher
Harbinger Supernova

4 out of 5 stars Not the best in the Ratchet & Clank series   March 19, 2006

When I heard that a new Ratchet & Clank game was coming to the stores I could not wait to play it. But when I play through the whole game i was kind of disapointed, because the Ratchet & Clank games got every time better and better by the game. But this one just did not reach the Ratchet & Clank standards . It is fun to play but not AS fun as the other Ratchet & Clank Games.
