    Great game for PS2

    Ratchet & Clank is an outstanding game for PS2. All the weapons, gadgets, characters are all the best, and also it fits in with the game. Ive beaten R&C 4 times. When you beat R&C you feel like playing it again. It is not to long and not to short. I cant wait for Ratchet & Clank 2: Going Commando, which comes out November 11, of this year. I recommend R&C and give it a 10/10!!!!!

    A fun adventure game (Video Game)

    Ratchet and Clank is about a space creature (don't know what it's called) who meets a little robot named Clank. They join forces to stop the evil mad scientist. (I forgot his name.) Now, let's get to the good stuff.

    Graphics- Ratchet works in 3-D. They're good, but not mind-blowing.

    Level Design- Well, the levels vary, but it simmers down to fighting loads of enemies many of the times. Beside, there are too many of those door-opening puzzles.

    Controls- The controls are smooth, and never hard to learn.

    Diffculty- It never gets too difficult, and never too easy. It's about right.

    Story- Well, it's not too good, but it's a video game! The cut scenes are hilarious though.

    Variety- The variety is a bit limited sometimes, but new things are thrown into the mix here and there.

    Shopping- You can buy plenty of weapons and ammo from the shops.

    Rewards for completing the game- None

    7/10

    utterly terrific- the best game on PS2!

    Ratchet and clank 2002 by insomniac games is by far the greatest electronic game ever made. I think this game is a masterpiece game the special effects are one of of the greatest. the games plot is perfect in every way. The game should of have more award nominations then one golden satellite award for outstanding character. when you are playing the levels in this game it is so detailed ,it is almost like you are really in space and on a different planet.It is also home of some of the coolest video game weapons I have ever seen,It is like making the terminator jealous.Lets get pt this is one of the best games for the ps2. If you are a fan of 3D action platformer games like the jak and daxter series get this game it is spectacular.

    Excellent first instalment

    There is a lot of imagination and polished gameplay in this video game. You really get invested in this world and all the characters. Even though it is a first instalment, it feels fully fleshed out. I enjoyed all the fun combat.

    A game ahead of its time!

    This game was the first game I ever played when I was 6 years old with my dad and we absolutely fell in love with the franchise. It's an amazing story and a classic adventure that I believe anyone could play. It deserves a remaster on any future consoles that come out hundreds of years from now. It will forever be considered a classic for the ages. There is no limit to how far ratchet and clank can go there will always be another universe to save and an adventure to have. Playing this game today takes me back to those glory days of being a kid and discovering the wonders and beauty of the video game industry. Please give it a try.
