    Solid game with fantastic graphics with good voice acting. Combat and overall gameplay are pretty good, if not a bit clunky at times. Fun or a single playthrough the PS5.

    lacking the charm of much earlier entries but we are safely past that era to the point where it's hard to expect that to be recaptured. on it's own merits this a good game. an incredible technical showcase if nothing else. Great guns and really fun environmental art as expected from the series.

    It's fun, cute and entertaining in all aspects, whether it be the characters, story and gameplay. Visual colorful and pleasing. The only big issue was that it was too short. The game is a great addition to the franchise.

    If you are like me who grew up with the classic PS2 and maybe the played the PS3 and you saw this game at store. You think This will be like old time again. Yes and no . No point of saving bolts for your progressive game. The writing is pretty much how mordon Pixar is these days just okay. The old game had something similar to futurama TV 14 . The PS3 Was Pixar at it's peek quality.

    Finally a true PS5 games and it show. The games is not a revolution but make the genre look better then ever. If your a fan of this franchise this games is a must. Story line is longer then previous game of the franchise and dual sense is well used. Worth buying it full price

    I had fun with this for a few hours, but ultimately found it to be too long, even though folks say it was too short. I was stuck at about four different points (3 seemed optional) and I just didn't care to continue. I was backtracking too often. Was a rental and I would have felt obligated to finish it if I bought it. Glad I didn't.

    Время пришло. Я прошёл ретчед и кланка 2.

    Что я могу сказать. Вторая часть ну безумно красивая. В плане сбора предметов более качественно сделана. Очень много сделано для удобства пользователя. Но геймплейно они не придумали новых интересных оружий. Да остались очень крутые с первой части. Но новые все какие-то неинтересные.

    Сидеть остался на уровне пиксаровского мультика не скатываясь полностью в детскость, но и не беря планку вау эффектов.

    В итоге игра стала лучше первой части. Но это всё ещё 8 баллов. Так же как и первая часть. Чисто из-за того что делает олед и то какая тут сочная графика и анимации я бы поставил 10 баллов. За геймплей 9, но из-за повторений и малого количества нововведений ставлю 7. Сюжет, ну он просто хороший, всё свежо, это 8. Итого 10+8+7 и средняя = 8.3 бала. Если играть в эту часть, как в первую то 9 баллов.

    У первой части приятная графика на 9, уникальный геймплей на 9 баллов, хороший сюжет на 8 баллов, но очень щамороченная система бек трекинга для сбора спрятанных предметов и очень много лишнего метроида за что 7. Итого первая часть 8.25. то есть вторая часть лучше на 0.08 баллов суммарно как для человека который играет в сиквел и на 0.75 была лучше, если играешь впервые. Ничего такого уровня качества сделано как мультик и чтобы это был шутер с кучей интересных механик на рынке я не видел. Продукт уникален в своем роде.    … Expand

    This game is fantastic, but it doesn’t earn its $70 price tag in my opinion. This was one of the games that made me really want a PS5, and while I had a lot of fun playing through this game and basking in its gorgeous environments and fun weapons, it doesn’t evolve itself enough from Ratchet and Clank 2016.

    In christmas holiday I played this one, High on Life and Tempestfall VR. This one was the weakest of the 3 altough it has the highest reviews score (playstation exclusives seem many times to be unbalanced positive and thats also the case here). But its still a decent game with very good graphics. It has its good moments but also its bad ones. The metacomputer puzzles are annoying.

    Very good first experience with the console and with the saga; fun, frantic and easy to master, especially considering the wide variety of weapons that exist, as well as a good story and well-polished graphics. The only problem is the too-recurrent Soft Locks and a bit repetitive even in the final battle.

    Це досить хороша, якісна гра з ефектним геймплеєм, але далеко не ідеал ексклюзивів від Sony.

    Почну з графіки. Я проходив у режимі "Якість" і спочатку відчував нестачу кадрів, ну, приблизно, 3 хвилини, потім звик і весь інший час я постійно скріншотив красу і записував фрагменти геймплея, який тут досить різноманітний через велику кількість гармат. Кожна з них унікальна і за допомогою адаптивних тригерів дає нові відчуття від геймплей. Трасування променів помічав, але особливо мене не вразила, можливо тому, що я сильно захопився пейзажем загалом і геймплеєм. Атмосфера тут дуже якісного дитячого мультика і це дуже добре.

    Я не чекав крутого сюжету від гри і я його не отримав, хоча кілька цікавих моментів все ж таки було. SSD у цій грі розкривається на повну і щоразу можна кайфувати від того, як все швидко завантажується, що навіть не встигаєш взяти телефон у руки. Механіки досить прикольні і періодично щось нове додається, що не змушує сумувати.

    Гра досить не довга, але я б радив купувати її зі знижкою в 60 відсотків, або ж просто взяти аккаунт в оренду, що набагато вигідніше, тому що якщо все збирати і чистити локації, то платина легко вибивається і після цього гру, швидше за все, ви вже ніколи й не запустіть.

    До конкретних мінусів хочу віднести відсутність різноманітності босів, вони всі під копірку; невелика тривалість, навіть якщо ви захочете зачистити гру на 100 відсотків (Я пройшов за 3 дні, з урахуванням гри 3-5 годин на день); фінал, який досить зім'ятий і прямо натякає на третью частину; один раз застряг у текстурах за Глючку і періодично застрягав у текстурах, але не критично; відсутність української мови в озвученні та субтитрах.    … Expand

    Despite the cartoony characters, and sci fi physics, it it takes no advantage of it, and youre constantly stuck to the ground, jumping left and right while holding or tapping the trigger. As fun as it is, it must evolve outside of its jaw droppingly beautiful graphics.
    Speaking of graphics and animation, there is not a second where this game doesn't look astonishing, and no matter what crazy **** is happening on screen, the framerate never dips. The animations look on par with the stuff you see in movies, that I'd never think were possible.

    The writing however, itsnt amazing. The plot is fine, and I really like the new characters, but feels sterilized in comparison to the older games. Still hope to see Rivet and Kit return

    Really nice opus and great work from Insomniac again. It does not get a higher score because my last opus was the PSP one, and well the mechanic didn't change. Nevertheless is remains a really nice game, on which they could have gone further (portal thing, less weapons but specific weaknesses on ennemies, a more specific gameplay for Rivet etc.).

    An excellent game to introduce all ages to the ps5. The graphics are the best I’ve seen on the ps5 so far & the game play is good fun & enjoyable. The only minor issue is that it’s not very challenging but that can be taken as a positive too since suits younger & new players. This point still doesn’t take away from the enjoyment. Overall this is a must have for the ps5.

    The game that showcases the PS5 the best. Excellent graphics with very fun gameplay, which could be a little harder. Played in the toughest gamemode and most bosses and fights were won by first try. Overall, in a good promo, certainly worth giving a try.

    It lacks some of the edgy humor that made the PS2 originals so great, but nonetheless this a fantastic game in the series. Excellent gameplay mechanics and memorable levels and set pieces.

    It is also absolutely stunning, and the most "next-gen" game I have played so far, by a long shot. True showcase of the PS5.

I also play a lot of racing games and use to play multiplayer games in my high school days but now that it's hard for me and my friends to find a good time to link up so now it’s more rare for me to get into a multiplayer game. Up to try any genre of games and sometimes I find something new that I didn't think I'd like. I own a PC (built by me), Xbox One X, Xbox Series X, PS3, PS4, PS5, and a Switch. I prefer Playstation due to their focus on narrative games. For scoring, I’ll be using the Gameinformer review scale and of course influenced by my personal opinions.

    (10) Outstanding. A truly elite title that is nearly perfect in every way. This score is given out rarely and indicates a game that cannot be missed.

    My first Ratchet and Clank game was the 2018 one. I enjoyed that one just like I enjoyed this one. What stands out to me the most is the gameplay/controls. It’s one of the smoothest feeling games out there which I’ve come to appreciate Insomniac for. There are only a couple other developer teams that are able to pull the smooth feeling off. The second thing that stood out were the graphics and how they were able to load drastically different environments without delay. It took me about 25 hours to beat and if continued to try to unlock and collect everything it would probably take me another 5-10 hours. The story felt like it had just the right amount of length in it.    … Expand

    Very fun to play. Story is very funny. Gameplay is very smooth and it is in fact a nice showcase for most of new PS5 features. Storyline is very short though, I finished it in four days. But this is a game that you would like to play over and over in non story mode.

    Pros
    1. Graphical powerhouse 2. Non existent loading times
    3. Easy to pick up and play for all ages
    4. Funny light hearted adventure 5. Combat is chaotic and fun
    Cons
    1. The 2 protagonists could have been differentiated more on their fighting styles and personality but this is just nitpicking
    Overall, one of the strongest offerings on Playstation

Gameplay is generally smooth and content is well considered: side quests are truly optional, fun and every single one packs its' own little storyline setting it apart from every other. No simple fetch quest copied a few hundred times. The main storyline makes sense and engages the user from start to finish. Equipment, rewards, collectibles, all in proper amounts with actual great benefits to collecting them. (Content-alternating effects like new graphics, as if you collect your actual game). Puzzles are simple yet exciting and not overdone. Weapons are unique, different and skill set or mechanical movement options feel natural despite not being realistic at all. Jump, dash, float, kick, throw hammer, dodge, etc.. all great. Oh, did I mention haptic feedback and triggers are fully incorporated? Yeah. This and surround audio, the immedsion is real. All in all a quality game that nails almost everything. Flying mechanic (with Trudy) could be better and the game length could be a little longer (10-20 more hours would have been perfect). Luckily this is replayable. Worth every penny.… Expand

    Great come-back for PlayStations most beloved mascots. The graphics go crazy and the wide array of weapons make full use of this. However the dialogue can be cheesy and there isn't much of the cheeky edge that ratchet & clank once was known for. It also suffers from being on the short side.

    What’s so good about this installment of Ratchet and Clank is that it is a true labor of love. There is no other way a game can feel so good, play so well, and take you on an impressive adventure all without that special ingredient to keep it going.
