  • @NuGeshootu because the xbox 360 sucks cock.  trololololololo

  • the first ratchet and clank was the best

  • Personally I wouldn't really mind the style change if it felt as good in quality as the earlier games but the gameplay just felt very clunky and limited to me.

  • my advertisement just buffered...

  • why why why cant this be for xbox 360 why????????????

  • @NuGeshootu sony owns the franchise

  • @NuGeshootu Because the Ratchet and Clank franchise is owned by Sony. Insomniac develops it, and gets the larger amount of profit

  • Just got this and the jak and daxter collection :D

  • il give it a 1/10 for ruining what ratchet and clank s if crack in time a future weapons fifnt shit on the original 4 enough this one takes a dump on your chest and kicks you in the balls

  • @UpNorthGameReviews If only someone would hang retrofags like you. Then the world would be at fucking peace. Really man, repeating the same game endlessly is NOT FUN. Doing new things with a franchise can be and is a lot of the time.

  • @vgman94 In the cases i've seen doing new things to the franchise kills them, look at Crash and Spyro

  • @MrCleverRaven What kills them is the fanboys who are too obsessed over nostalgia to accept a change. Crash kept the whimsical nature and made excellent new mechanics like Jacking and pocketing them. It was unique. Spyro was excellent until Skylanders, which not only simplifies, but makes a comedic mockery of the previous TLOS games and doesn't have any of the decent sass from the PS1 games. It's like a modern Saturday cartoon.

  • @vgman94 I have been playing the ratchet and clank games since the first one came out, and I found that Tools of Destruction and a Crack in Time were terrible compared to the first games. Even though they were almost exactly the same in game mechanics and whatnot, I still had trouble playing them through. I don't cling to nostalgia like most people, but I think that Insomniac should just stop shitting out Ratchet and Clank games and actually think of a half decent storyline.

  • Am I the only one who grew up on these sony games? I need a PS3.......

  • Actually, Deadlocked was the first one to feature Fully-Cannon co-op. I bet no one remembers that.

  • wrong co op was in up ur arsenal

  • Thumbs up if you want Quest for Booty as a HARD COPY GAME that you can keep, play and cherish just like the other two!

  • @disc33 you can get it as a hardcopygame. 

  • Nothing equals the "weapons for dummies" presentations.

  • @perrycody412 You mean insomniac

  • anyone still remember the infobots?

  • 1.) Up Your Arsenal

    2.) Going Commando

    3.) Tools Of Destruction

  • @MrSpiffy566 Can't compare them retard they are completely different.

  • What is this fan club? Can i join it on facebook? :P

  • enough of the cod elite ads!!!

  • why didn't they make a game about R&C UYA/deadlock's multiplayer? shame :/

  • @AssasinsCreedBlog new is good look at uncharted 3 or even starhawk change helps fix the problems that the older games had they were good back then but this society is evolving

  • @phantomkiller197 Yes change Fixes problems but Uncharted and other games are TRUE to there story they didn't change the characters.@Vgman94

    Im a retro gamer and a modern gamer i have no problems with games except you, a new childhood gamer don't know what you are talking about If you think Dmc Has a good story line then ur fucked i have my opinion and you have your's but most people will agree now if it's a sequal graphics stay the same gameplay will improve, Ac. Pop,Cod,Lbp Ico etc

  • Guys what do you think what would be next R&C game?

  • It was a good game, but Insomniac should really return to the Third Person Shooter Genre

  • Grrrrrrr... The ps3 i bought came with this R&C game, not one of the two i wanted. Oh well....

  • am anyone see the despcription fail IGN gives its video review for the new PS3 Move game Ratchet & Clank

    its not for ps move

  • i love this game was nice for them to shake things up

  • This game is hammered shit. Thanks for breaking my childhood you stupid assholes

  • @hummbug72 I couldn't agree more. I felt ToD was a slight disappointment, but it was really good all things considered. Then they stepped it up a notch and made ACIT which was totally amazing.

    ...and then they made this piece of shit. It's amazing how they turned pure gold into shit. In my view of the R&C world this game doesn't exist, it's a bad spin-off at best. It breaks my heart to hear them say this is the continuation of the story.

  • @hummbug72 A franchiseshouldn't stay the same forever and your childhood is gone, as the exact gameplay formats from the time are also gone. Crash didn't stay the same forever, neither did Spyro or Sonic (until the fagbase raped him with Colors). Get with the program. If things stayed the same, it'd suck. If you don't like it, get a life.

  • @vgman94

    have you ever wondered how change kills a game?

    Spyro-Failed game, even the new skylanders failed

    Sonic-Failed with 3D games yet the old skool 2D games are sucess

    Crash-failed Game Has been dumped to the ground

    New DMC 5- People are raging not to buy

    etc

    New gameplay/Story kills a game

  • @AssholeCreedBlog Fagboys kill games, not the changes. SANE gamers like changes, because sane gamers actually know that there's an era and time for gameplay and that a franchise will eventually outgrow it. Retro faggots like yourself and half the gay-mer community kill games. Sonic was a success with the Adventure games, Spyro ONLY failed with Shitlanders. The Legend games were quality, but hated on for being too different or too series by idiots. Crash innovated, but had a fagbase like Sonic's.

  • This game is horrible, it can't even attempt to compare to the previous ps3 games. I'm extremely disappointed and it was a huge waste of money. I can only hope they'll return to the old format.

  • is this game is in PS2???????

    

  • @casunil9711 no no no

  • This wasn't the first time for co-op. What about Rachet Deadlock?

  • Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but this review seems to be missing that your coop buddies LOSE ALL their stuff every time they play. So if you play in coop your buddies are going to have to start from zero every time.

  • RYAN CLEMENTS is the reviewer who gave all review a ...a dump 8,0

  • @MrTimethings Since when is an 8.0 a bad thing?

  • @izeckx i never sayed that 8,0 is bad buthe always give a 8,0 ...and like one time a 9,0 but the most time its just a 8,0 not more

  • Comment removed

  • i hate this game

  • @fullerton5ful Typical fanboy. You guys always hate on good games.

  • @vgman94 my favorite game series is ratchet and clank, but this one game took almost everything about ratchet and clank that i loved, and ruined it. i hope they make another ratchet and clank game but make it like the others. the good ones

  • @fullerton5ful Then you liked R&C for the wrong reasons. The comedy is still here, the characters are here, the wacy weapons are still here. There's platforming and puzzles, and a diverse amount of areas (who gives a crap if it isn't other planets? Same difference still applies). All the positives are still here. This is one of the good ones. All it needs is polishing, the same way Going Commando improved on the first game. It's a good formula, but just needs more polish and work.

  • @vgman94 agreed

  • @bgriff2000 Thanks.

  • @ViolentSpring 10 months actually. And its a fun game, but it's not as good as the other ones. 

  • does anyone remember the Up your arsenal/deadlock multiplayer?

  • @NintendoFanboy1235 ya but MW3 was kind of a disappointment I'd try getting skyrim instead that game is freaking epic

  • Seriously, when is IG going to realize that what people want in a Ratchet game is some sort of competitive multiplayer? Maybe in the next installment.

  • id wish they'd bring back multiplayer from r&c 3.

  • whats the highest level in online??

  • Me and my friends love this game. 9

  • @PurpleLink11 So you and your friends are 9 months old? Yep, that makes sense.

  • Does anyone know how this game saves ? cannot locate the option.

  • @enjoythesilence29

    Just go to the pause menu and press quit game, the game should save automatically.

  • i played 4 player on a later lvl and some idiots didnt even know how to use the vac-u

  • U guys obviously haven't played the original ones they're the best >:D

  • Who thinks they should put ALL the Ratchet and Clank games on the ps2 and re-released it onto the ps3, like what they did for God of War.

  • @PersianPrincessify They're doing it for Sly, and Jak and Daxter....so yeah maybe in the near future.

  • @PersianPrincessify and what there soon going to do jak and daxter...

  • @PersianPrincessify That's a brilliant idea! The classics are the best.

  • @PersianPrincessify what about the psp games? u think they should do that 2?

  • @godofevil11695 I didn't know Ratchet and Clank were on the psp, but now that you bring it up, yes they should.

  • @PersianPrincessify

    Size matters/Secret agent clank

  • @AssasinsCreedBlog Also, the new DMC looks perfectly fine through the gameplay and the story. If you think everything new is bad, then I Hope to God you don't have iPods or iPhones or anything made after your birth. But I bet you do, because retards like yourself are fucking hypocrites who ruin the fun for the rest of us. Games are for FUN, and change doesn't kill fun. People do.

  • @PersianPrincessify  best idea ever!!

  • @ArticWonder123 i know! I started on tools of destruction, so I never got to play these games.

  • @PersianPrincessify yeah and the future trilogy pack too

  • @PersianPrincessify would be amazing!

  • i dont want ratchet and clank all 4 one i want ratchet and clank 4 in one....

  • @irishgamer1034 I want crack in time

  • I LOVE R&C HUMOR :D

  • can you play with clank on your back all the time? that would be great i consider buying it.

  • i think this game deserved better then an 8, i would ov gave it an 8.8

  • Is it possible to play the game without MOVE?

  • @gelindark Yes, as a matter of fact, there is no Move controls.

  • @Ironbat92 thank you very much

  • @gelindark It's a typo, I personally would be confused if i tried to play with the move.....

  • Loved R&C 1-3. Then I got bored with it...

  • And whoever calls this game unmature, No video game's are mature, even though Call of Duty/Battlefield fanboy's say.

    Call Of Duty/Battlefield Fanboy: THIS GAME SUCKS ITS NOT MANLY.

    Haha, game's are meant to be enjoyed, who care's if it's kinda cartoony, Ratchet and Clank is a really fun series, and has great humor.

  • @MasterOfTheCreed Yeah, but this is game was fucking dumbed down. I'm a long time R&C fan, and this is the only R&C game I don't like.

  • In ratchet deadlocked for PS2 you have 2 player Co op, I play with my bro all the time :P

  • Another faggy game from the PS3... im tired right now, there are a lot of shitty games in the PS3.

    Try Xbox 360 for mature games

  • @Xbox360fanboyer

    Fuck off you stupid little brat.

  • @Xbox360fanboyer mature games like halo? with the pink guns and the purple aliens? lol right.....(btw im not even a ps3 gamer im with nintendo but i just hate fanboys)

  • @Xbox360fanboyer Shut up, Ratchet and Clank is an amazing game.

    I can proudly call myself a Xbox and Ps3 fan, how about you go play the Wii? don't need shitty player's like you on Xbox or PSN.

  • @Xbox360fanboyer please explain to me then how infamous, killzone, demons souls, resistance, god of war, metal gear solid 4, lair and uncharted are imature games?

  • @Xbox360fanboyer The Xbox 360 has games?

  • no friend: 6.5 out of 10

  • 1)R&C up your arsenal (best online multiplayer & weapons)

    2)R&C going commando (best singleplayer & comeback)

    3)R&C future tools of destruction (best ps3 R&C)

    4)R&C crack in time

    5)R&C 1

    6)Ratchet deadlock

    pretty much it :l

  • @cookieraider126 deadlock deserves igher imo but apart from that i agree

  • the series pretty much died right after going commando

  • Actually i planed to get this .. but i think its stupid and sucks as hell !!

    gosh .. we want a game like crack in time .. it was fucking AWESOME

    this is a trash

  • I'm getting the complete entertainment bundle PS3 for Christmas which comes with this and LBP2. i'll definitely be keeping LBP2, but i'm wondering if i should leave this game in its plastic wrap, and sell it as new, and get a different game, another controller, PSN credit, etc. thoughts?

  • @NintendoFanboy1235 i got the same thing, im gonna sell rachet and clank, and get either batman arkham city or uncharted 3

  • @greenday5682217 Yeah, that's pretty much exactly what i was thinking. except i would want to throw MW3 into the choices. it just kind of seems to me that this game really isn't worth my time.

  • What's up with all the bitching and whining? Some of you people need to get the sand outta your vaginas.

  • A Crack In Time was a whole lot better.

  • who is the guy who did this review? I know his voice from other ign reviews and i walk away satisfied of what he has to say also the fact he loves anime just as much as i do. :P

  • I got it with the PS3 bundle haven't opened it yet idk it seems like a party game getting tools of destruction anyways

  • @muiscnight same here, im selling it on ebay and getting arkham city or uncharted 3, keep LBP2!

  • good review, i finally got a Ps3 bundle and this is my first R&C game since "Up Your Arsenal"(YIKES!)

    Cant wait to get back into the series!

  • @eraquskey wow me too!

  • You know this game was ok.. finally insomniac goes back to the classic styled Ratchet way than unlike the future series. I'll give it a 6/10. Points off for, Dissapointing final boss, You cannot play as 4 Ratchets or Clanks or Qwarks etc.., The new characters are forgettable and finally the RYNO VI Protosuit. Points plus, Ratchet looks like in the PS2 days, Weapons are decent, Great level designs and thats how it should have been, Great soundtracks, Online since Ratchet Gladiator.

  • just saying but why didn't insomniac games make a multiplayer R&C based off deadlock & up your arsenal *disappointed fan* :(

  • If you guys dont have a ps3 there is a bundle with the system, LBP2, and All 4 One.

  • @MegaDenden123 i got that it's awsome

  • Is this game worth it to buy if not tell me why and if it is please tell me why :D please subscribe to me :)

  • @Bryan28W well i would say if your a rachet fan then yes it is a buy. if your just getting into the series start with one of the other entries in the series excluding deadlocked not the biggest fan of that title. its really fun and is entertaining solo or with friends. the weapons are excellent as always but again it is not the most creative or challenging rachet but if you want to play a game that will put a smile on your face this is your game

  • thank you finally a critic who shares my view on this game!!!! overall i enjoyed the game but like the reviewer said the camera was a pest at times, and sometimes clank wasn't doing his job but for the most part the game is great. This review is much more fair than other websites cough* (G4/Xplay) who nitpicked the game for things that weren't even really flaws. Would I say this is the best rachet game no, but it's fun a new direction insomniac took the franchise in. lookin forward to the nxt 1

  • xbox only has the sales that it has because its CHEAP, xbox was a fraction of the price of a ps3 and thatr is why they beat sony but now ps3 sales are better , if you check how much sony and microsoft profited from there consoles, you'll see that sony leave them for dead, but i aint hating on xbox, i believe both of them are great but i choose playstation because ive had every single one since it came out and it also has a bluray player, and of course the exclusives such as UNCHARTED and R&C.

  • Is this only for PS Move?

  • @kiwi242000 No dude,this game i not even ps move compatible:)Have fun with your game!

  • gee u guys stop goin on about sales and wii and xbox they l great exsept xbox lol well goty is between uc3 skyrim and some begining year releases lbp2 and smg2 and zelda skyward sword and gears of war 3

  • This just isnt r & c, not gettin it

  • I thought this was going to get a negative review because it wasn't Call of Duty

  • @desire2fire92 You know they would.

  • @desire2fire92 And why was that? Has IGN ever given something a negative review because it wasn't call of duty? Can you give just one exampe.... PLEASE???

  • this game looks look nicktoons unite...... i never played a racthet game but those look better thn this...

  • This game is my salvation. I just rented LOTR: War in the North hoping to have my friends over to chill and get some late night gaming goin, but they ruined that game. You can only do 2 player split-screen locally, you have to go online for 3. So the designers probably assumed anyone who likes LOTR doesn't have any real life friends. The game is going back in the mail and Ratchet and Clank has been placed at the top of my game queue.

  • OK, so we're all in agreement: We prefer this guy to Greg Miller?

  • This guy should do the majority of reviews.

  • @JrpgGamer16 You might want to check your facts there--The PS3 just surpassed the Xbox360 in worldwide sales. It's only sold less in the US because COD drives sales here, not exclusives. PS3 exclusives are selling better than XB360 exclusives. (Uncharted 3 sold more than Gears 3 in its opening week) So don't give up on the PS3 just because of some skewed sales figures

  • @JrpgGamer16 Stop arguing about pointless shit

  • @JrpgGamer16 The only thing that's 'dieing' is people's ability to spell. I don't know if you've been paying attention this year at all, but Sony had the best year for exclusives out of all the home consoles. Do these ring a bell? Killzone 3, Infamous 2, Uncharted 3, Resistance 3? All critically outstanding, and those are just a few of the blockbusters. There are still plenty of exclusive indie games on the PSN that unfortunately don't get the attention they should. Check em' out

  • Is there voice chat online?

  • Feel like its trying to hard to be like Super Mario Bros.

  • this looks fine and all but i prefer the old ratchet and clank formula.

  • gladiator/dedlocked had co-op.

  • Past two Ratchet and Clank were amazing, All 4 One sucks.

  • Despite the changes made to fit the co-op theme, this game is still an immense amount of fun, and I really loved playing it with other people.

  • @ToaMaster1619 dear fellow gamer i have to say that there was a better ratchet and clank game with coop on the ps2

  • i like this guy :) his reviews are pretty good and i agree with him for the most part.ign should let him review more cuz other reviewers are just plain annoying.greg millers his reviews can be good if he likes a game but if he doesnt he sounds pretty bitchy

  • the ad before the video was about all 4 one.....

  • bannana cakes.

  • My favorite was size matters

  • @TheAdobe511 But insomniac didn't make that one.

  • @TheMagicPin oh?

  • Its just shit. Screw you, insomniac! why can't you just make another REAL Ratchet and Clank game?

  • @UncleFerdinand You know what?SCREW YOU!

    

  • correction, this is not the first co-operative game in the serie, Ratchet Gladiator is

  • my fave was up your arsenal

  • so after playing this maybe i SHOULD look in the mirror and say i am glad i joined the ratchet fan club hahahaha

  • the ratchet and clank series sucked after #3

  • @faym0us I absolutely agree, for me the best one was and will always be #2: Going Commando.

  • @faym0us The Future trilogy barely changed anything and you still whine. Sick, insane fanboys. Can't you just enjoy games instead of crying them for not being EXACTLY the same shit you played as a kid?

  • i bought this game and really enjoying it, don't regret my purchase at all. This game is a blast to play especially with friends. But single player is good as well because clank will be your partner. I give this 8.5 out of ten. its like a party action adventure platformer all rolled into one. Love this game and would recommend its purchase.

  • @silly3200 ads are from youtube not ign

  • @lipnox88

    If you're a partner, you have the option to disable ads from your videos. IGN chooses to play these ads as well as having ads on the sides of their videos.

  • MY GOD!

  • @silly3200 what?

  • This guy made this game looks like a 9.0.

  • @Vietminh293 try the demo it's actually pretty good

  • @superboltboy i can't find it. is it on the PSN store?

  • @Vietminh293 yeah, you should be able. Maybe it depends on where you're from. Search under demos you should be able to find it.

  • @silly3200 comment responding is available....
