It does feel a bit disjointed, though, with both story and gameplay segments lacking the smooth transitions and flow of something like a Naughty Dog game. A combo of the movie tie in and what could be a small budget may have contributed to this (offset by its cheaper price tag). Altogether a great launch point for series newcomers or a nostalgic remix for old fans and a beautiful game regardless. Expand

    A great reboot-remake of the original PS2 game with brand new graphics and story.

    The game maintains the original essence of the original.

    The bad point is that can be quite short if goes only trough the main story, but for it´s price is totally worth.

    Mas que Reboot sensacional. Aprofundaram a história do jogo, gráficos estão esplêndidos e jogabilidade muito boa. A Insomniac sempre fazendo um trabalho muito caprichado.

    This is the first complete game that I enjoyed on my PS4.

    And I have to say that it will be very difficult to get over this game.

    This game reached my standards on how a Plataformer/action game should be. Only other game gave me this lots of fun, and of course that game was Sunset Overdrive.

    Insomniac did this, they have my sac of money

    Ratchet & Clank for the PS4 is in my opinion a must have for any PS4 owner that likes platforming and shooting games. This is actually my first R&C game and...oh boy did i missed out on something.

    STORY: You are this Lombax (a cat-fox-dog like creature) called Ratchet, who wants o be a Guardian of the Galaxy, but he because the leader is a **** so he doesn't let him. Meanwhile a defective robot warrior called (insert extremely long and confusing robot name here), scapes from a planet because he's...well...defective and by the power of convenience both Ratchet and the robot (which Ratchet names Clank out of nowhere) meet and without any questioning the 2 of them become buddies and from there on out they have some great adventures!. In a platforming game the story is the last thing i care about so i'm not gonna bash the game for it, however i will say my main complain and that is that Ratchet and Clank become buddies way to quickly and they never have any character development.

    PRESENTATION: This game looks like a freaking pixar movie, specially in the very well done cinematics, that from what i can tell, are straight out of the movie. The game runs at 1080p 30fps and it make the character models, the animations and the gorgeous environments pop-up even more!, however in a game so fast paced like this i kinda feel like 60fps is needed and even tho the graphics are pretty sweet, i'm sure that the PS4 can run this type of graphics with 60fps, i mean, the Wii U already does it with Super Mario 3D World so...what's the deal?.The soundtrack is very forgettable in my opinion, but it does help to create the mood for the environments and i like that techno-space theme that it has.

    GAMEPLAY: The controls of the game are great, they are smooth and the platforming feels great and you have the different moves like the double jump, wall jump and grappling hook to thank for that.

    You have a variety of crazy weapons at your disposal. You have your default weapon which is your wrench and you can spam it to do a basic combo attack and in case it misses, you just keep swinging, this very helpful with little enemies. But then we get to the other weapons. Some of them are the usual stuff like a grenade, laser gun, flame thrower, etc, but we also get one that can make enemies (and bosses) dance, one that turns enemies into sheep, one that literally transform enemies into pixels and much more!. This weapons are super fun to use and you can also level them up by simply using them. And you can buy more with bolts that are literally EVERYWHERE!. And you upgrade them with some crystals that you find in missions. However you can only do that by finding a special box, which forces you to find one when you want to buy or upgrade something. Personally i feel like them should've go with the Batman Arkham system, where you can upgrade whenever you want.

    There's different ways to switch from weapon to weapon, but the best one is to hold the triangle button, which pauses the game, and then selecting the weapon. Tho i feel like it's very imprecise, since there were a number of occasions where i picked the wrong weapon by accident because of the menu.

    Aside from the main weapons we also get a few gadgets that can help Ratchet in his adventure, but i felt like they were not used to the maximum potential, since the puzzles and things that they do seem...unimportant. Except for the oxygen mask, breathing underwater is great.

    Clank also gets a few upgrades, but they are pretty much the same with one being a helicopter and another being a jetpack. Both of these are very useful for platforming around and using the jetpack to fly feels great. Nevertheless i did feel like Clank could've been used a bit more in this category.

    To trow variety to the mix we also have puzzle sections with Clank, a tedious and pace breaking hacking minigame that can go **** itself, incredibly fun racing competitions and flying sections that are basically a clone of Star Fox complete with BARREL ROLLS! and everything.

    Instead of worlds divided by levels, we have massive hub worlds with main and secondary missions and it depends on you which one you want to do. And scattered around all of these worlds are some cards that i don't really know what they are used for and a GIANT-GOLDEN-BOLT that...i also don't know for what is used for.

    We also have some fairly challenging and fun boss battles, however i feel like they were all just the same. The formula is that you are placed in a platform, shoot the boss until he dies, that's it. Don't get me wrong, he bosses are fun, but i feel like they lack variety.

    Overall Ratchet & Clank is a very fun game, it has a decent story, graphics ripped out of a pixar movie, music that fit the environments, amazing weapons, fun bosses and an addictive component that makes the whole adventure very replayable. Even tho it has little flaws, i still recommend it a lot.

    I'll give it an 9/10.

    There is some replayability in the form of a challenge mode wich is essentially new game + with a bolt multiplier. A good and more fun way to get any trophies you might have missed the first playthrough.
    So all in all a very good game and with a price tag at 40$ I can honestly give this game a 9 out of 10.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I love the Ratchet & Clank series. I love this game.

    Spoilers Start here skip ahead to avoid them.

    This game is marketed as a remake of the original and while that is true, it is more a reboot of the original mixed slightly with Up Your Arsenal. The main villain is still Drek, but this time Dr Nefarious is thrown into this game, his original appearance is in Up Your Arsenal. There were also some slight changes to how they handled the characters and their relationships. Making them a bit more kid friendly and almost certainly did so because they want the movie to appeal to kids heavily, but it works. Captain Qwark is no longer the villian he initially was in the original and is instead a good person in this one who suffers from a bit of jealousy that is directed at Ratchet, and even after his betrayal in this game he still remains good hearted and in the end redeems himself. Making his character very likeable unlike in the original series where he didn't have his turn to good until later in the series where he became a much more prominent character. This is good for the character as Qwark, at least to me, is a better character and much more enjoyable once he reaches this point in the original series and it's good to see it happen in what will hopefully be the first in a new series. The one drawback from a story standpoint in this game is there is no tension or conflict between Ratchet or Clank, and are instead buddy-buddy from the get go and never look back. I felt the conflict that these two had in the original lead to some great character growth for Ratchet and we don't get this here.

    Spoilers end here.

    The best part about this game though is the gameplay. They have fined tuned the R&C series over the years and it shows. Aiming is the smoothest it has been, same goes for movement. The collection of weapons, while certainly not the most diverse it has ever been is very solid and has a lot of great choices to choose from for destroying your foes in front of you. Every weapon serves its purpose and can support many different play styles. Of course some series favorites return in the Groovinator, Bomb Glove, and above all else the R.Y.N.O.. Along with some new weapons like the Predator Launcher. Upgrading weapons is a bit more time consuming in this game than the original but there are far more upgrades for each gun.

    The planets proceed close to what the original game does with some slight changes here and there. Each world though looks gorgeous and there were plenty of times where I just had to stop to look around.

    There are some very R&C esque glitches that can happen, and you would think that with the extra time that was given on this game they would have ironed them out, but no. There can instances of not being able to progress in certain levels because something didn't spawn properly, I fell through the map quite a few times, and during the race mini game there would be times where the boost rings wouldn't spawn. A quick closing of the app fixes these problems but still, they shouldn't be happening.

    Ultimately, this entry in the R&C series is a worthy one and is certain to entertain you for at least a few play throughs even with the bugs that can occur.

    Ratchet & Clank 2016 is a great remake of the PS2 classic. It's a game based on the movie which in turn was based on the 1st game. I have played the whole PS2-era trilogy of games in the PS3 HD collection, so I can appreciate this new version's advancements and differences from the source material.

    This remake reimagines the original game's story, where Ratchet and Clank meet by coincidence, become friends, and ultimately save the galaxy from evil forces. The original plot has been slightly changed and is a bit wacky, new cut scenes are included from the movie, but the humor is still great. The Ratchet and Clank characters are the same as always, noble and humble heroes looking for an adventure. Captain Qwark is still a pompous and self-interested "hero". The developers altered the jokes for the modern era, with references to social media (which didn't exist back in 2002). And when you see a remade game parodying itself by saying "see you in the next reboot", you know it's funny.

    The Ratchet & Clank games have always been a fun mix of 3D platformer and shooter, and this remake is no exception. Mechanics from later games (such as leveling up weapons with XP) are introduced in this remake, as well as some new features (holocard collecting, weapon customisation). Cool weapons are plentiful, but my personal favorites are the Sheepinator (turns enemies into harmless sheep), the Pixeliser (a shotgun that turns enemies into 8-bit sprites) and the Groovitron (an AoE orb that makes enemies dance around for roughly 10 seconds and be open to attack). Unfortunately there are only 3 boss fights in this game, and none of them is a challenge. There are plenty of collectibles to find, and some side quests are different from the original game. When you are done with the campaign you can begin a Challenge Mode (a New Game Plus mode), by replaying the story with higher level enemies, while your weapons as well as your HP bar can be upgraded even more.

    This remake has some of the best cartoony graphics I have ever seen in a video game. Insomniac Games wanted to recreate a Pixar-esque art style, but it comes at the cost of a lower frame rate. Ratchet & Clank games have always been running at 60 fps, but the developers have abandoned this target in recent years and the remake is running at 30 fps. A game like this with fast action and shooting needs 60 fps. But it's OK once you get used to it. Also if you have a PS4 Pro you can enjoy this game in 4K with HDR, but it's still 30 fps.

    Ratchet & Clank 2016 is a great game, based on a classic. I definitely recommend this to every gamer.

    Ratchet and Clank is one of the most addicting games I have played in a long time.

    To start, the gameplay is fantastic. The controls are solid, the movement feels great, and the star of the games are the weapons.

There are so many different kinds that the game never feels boring, plus there is an extensive upgrade system that allows you to constantly be improving your favorite weapons. There are also lots of variety in the enemies and level design, as nothing is truly the same.

    There are puzzle sections with Clank that are brief but fun along with some secrets hidden around in the world that are a joy to find. The only bad thing about the gameplay is the hacking mini game, which is really boring but thankfully it isn't often.

    The game is also beautiful looking as well. There isn't much about the game that looks bad, it really is an amazing looking game. 60FPS would have been nice, but I never really noticed it being in 30fps.

    The only real downside is some of the story. It's simple which is fine, and some of the humor and characters work, but when the humor misses the mark it REALLY misses the mark. Some of it is the worst I have heard, partly because of the jokes but also because of the delivery. Despite that, Ratchet, Clank and the Captain are all cool characters that I can't wait to see more of.

    There is also a New Game + mode which allows you to further upgrade your weapons, upgrade Ratchet's health and allows you face some new enemies at a higher challenge.

    This is really a must have for any PS4 owner out there. It is a relatively cheap game and there isn't any DLC or Microtransactions. You would be hard pressed to not at least partially enjoy this game.

    Ratchet & Clank looks and plays as well as it ever has. Fans will enjoy the nostalgic journey through familiar planets, while newcomers will appreciate the chaotic and creative weaponry. But for the ninth game in a franchise that built its name on unique weapons, it’s a shame that the arsenal just coasts on fan-favorites. Insomniac played it safe.
