    This game is a cluttered mess complete with horrid framerate issues, lackluster gameplay and graphics that are sub-par compared to a lot of other games that I've seen for the vita. Quite frankly the game is nearly unplayable and from what I've seen on the ps3 version which I've completed: This is a game that I'm pretty sure even the most diehard R&C fans will hate.

Quite frankly the game is nearly unplayable and from what I've seen on the ps3 version which I've completed: This is a game that I'm pretty sure even the most diehard R&C fans will hate. The only redeemable quality that you can take away from this steaming pile is the fact that the characters are still pretty great as is the humor. But given everything that I've said at the beginning of this review; this is a game that should be avoided.… Expand

    WHAAAATTT THEEE F***** IS THIS GAME??? This is, by far, the worst game I have played in Vita until now. I created an account here in Metacritic just to tell you all to run from this game. I don't know if it's going to be sold in a physical media, if so, it would be a total disrespect with the people who would buy it. The game looks like it is unfinished.

I'm sure the guys who worked on this game didn't agree with the release of the game, it was released clearly by pressure from the top due to a previous schedule. I have been playing all games of this series along all this years and I wanted to play on vita too, but it's really impossible. It's a pity.… Expand

    In my eyes, Full Frontal Assault (or QForce for those of us in Europe) had so much potential. It should have absolutely shone on Vita. Particularly since plans to port Trendy Entertainment's genetically similar, Dungeon Defenders to Sony's handheld were, disappointingly, canned before ever seeing the light of day.

Particularly since plans to port Trendy Entertainment's genetically similar, Dungeon Defenders to Sony's handheld were, disappointingly, canned before ever seeing the light of day.

    However, and quite unforgivably might I add, this Ratchet & Clank oddity is hamstrung (putting it mildly) by an inconsistent framerate, sub-par graphics, shoddy textures, squiffy controls, a wonky camera, questionable design choices, and perhaps worst of all, even the odd crash. All of which, unsurprisingly, adds up to a broken, and fatally flawed experience.

    Full Frontal Assault could, and really should, have been a great little game for fans of action, strategy and tower defence genres alike. The fact that it isn't is a genuine shame.    … Expand

    So yeah, this game is complete garbage. From the visuals to the gameplay, even to the lack of 2 vs. 2 multiplayer seen on the PS3 counterpart. The only Cross feature in this game is Cross-save, so no Cross-play. Avoid this disaster, and just get Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters instead.

    I'm a massive Ratchet and Clank fan, but this port is a disaster today the least. This was delayed several times, and Tin Giant still couldn't come up with something acceptable. I'm glad I got this free with the PS3 version, because frankly, it's almost unplayable.

    Horricic port. I liked the PS3 version so I purchased the Vita version as well for my kid. Slow, buggy and looks absolutely horrible. What a waste of money!

    Holy crap, what happened with this version?! I know the Vita isn't quite as strong as the PS3, but this game is a bad way of showing off what the Vita can do. It took so much longer to release, and it looks like it was absolutely rushed. The graphics are ok, but the frame-rate makes the game pretty much unplayable, at least for me.

    Whatever it is, it still proves that there's life on the lombax and the vita... and it is really impressive what they did on the psvita version... and one more thing, if your out of ideas for an adventure game, then get this game on the psvita...

    Ratchet & Clank: Q-Force on PS3 was just merely bad but the PSVITA version was completely mediocre! Low quality textures in level design and character models, lack of buttons forcing us to use certain buttons that does not at all work decently with the actions as well as lack of multiplayer on the main campaign. All these problems are things that the PS3 version got right.

    Тупо неиграбельно, даже с разгоном до 500 мгц. Это худший порт на виту, даже резидент был получше.

    Ratchet & Clank: QForce is good fun - on the PS3. This PS Vita port is incredibly shoddy and not worth your time.

    Between the cut content and significant technical issues, the Vita version is a weaker experience in almost every respect and does nothing to improve what was only an okay game to begin with.
