RATCHET AND CLANK TIMELINE OF GAMES UPGRADE

The game also includes a leveling and upgrade system for each of its weapons, which is very effective at preventing the weapons from feeling overly repetitive as the game goes on. To make up for the few that aren’t returning though, they have added a number of other weapons that were introduced in the later games instead, including some crazy weapons like the Groovitron and the Sheepinator. The original game had a wide array of different weapons you could collect like the Pyrociter, with most of them returning this time. Outside of a few weapons that are acquired within the story, most of them must be purchased at the Gadgetron vendor stations with bolts, the in-game currency, which are rather plentiful if you are destroying pretty much everything you can in the game. These are especially useful in the more complex boss battles that are a blast to play.

This is effective against the hordes of smaller monsters, which can be used with ground slamming attacks, but there are also stronger enemies that are harder to hit with this short range weapon, which is where the other weapons really come into play.

With the power of his OmniWrench 8000, Ratchet can beat down enemies in fairly simple hack ‘n’ slash type gameplay. Ratchet and Clank both start their journeys separately with a few areas of gameplay to themselves, but very quickly they meet and the game really begins, with their banter still as enjoyable as ever. The return of the original voice actors for the main characters was a wise decision to bridge the gap between the two as well. This can be seen even more so in the large levels, like where you are riding on a long train or flying around in a city.

The power of the PS4 not only allows the colorful designs to prosper on the gorgeous landscapes, but also features a level of detail that makes the character models look stunning in action, even down to the fur on Ratchet and the shine off of Clank, and other surfaces. There is no doubt that every Ratchet & Clank game has had impressive visuals for its time as a result of the more cartoon like designs, but Ratchet & Clank really takes that to the next level. This is a very interesting take that allows this game to technically be in continuity with the others, while still differing in some ways based upon the same overall events. This game is definitely not a sequel or even a straight up remake either, but truly a reimagining of the events of the original game as told in narrative form through another character in the future.

Ratchet & Clank has a rather rich history of storylines that could have easily been built upon, but Insomniac Games instead took the risky move to reboot the series only 14 years later, though with a twist.

This almost led to a feeling of series fatigue, but wisely the series has slowed it down over the last few years, giving it room to breathe ahead of not only Ratchet & Clank for PS4, but also the upcoming movie as well. While these series have performed well, Ratchet & Clank is definitely their most prolific franchise with 10 entries developed directly by them. Insomniac Games has had much success in game development over the years with series like Spyro, and even the much darker Resistance.

The PS3 era of games that were known as the Future series were a little more hit and miss, so the series has now returned to the past with a reimagining of the original in the simply titled Ratchet & Clank. This incredible selection of games included the very well regarded Ratchet & Clank series that helped to define platformers of that era. The PlayStation 2 is the best selling console of all time, and that was largely helped by the stellar library of games in its lifespan.
