I've been a huge fan of the series since Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando. I couldn't ever really enjoy the original because the gameplay wasn't nearly as refined as it's successor so a remake of the origin story at this level is great. I did play through about 60% of the original and none of the levels feel the same but the story along with little details carries it in a way where fans of the original will just smile. My biggest concern was the price point, I took a gamble pre-ordering this for $32 thinking that might have messed it up, but I had faith after watching gameplay off YouTube. There are games that are $60 that can't hold a candle to this title. It's a must buy.



I started the game on Hard and Insomniac learned from previous games that difficulty levels need more than just increased damage and defense scaling among enemies. There's that, but enemies will be more precise and catch you if you think you can just strafe and jump around everything, hoverboard challenges/races will also be more difficult. The graphics are amazing and the sound design is top notch. Weapon design is fan-freaking-tastic.



For parents, you could definitely play this with kids in the room, it'll be like they're playing/watching a Pixar movie. But it's written where there are jokes where only adults will catch and will fly right over their heads. So this is definitely accessible to ALL AGE GROUPS.

I decided to pick this up over Dark Souls 3 even though I'm a huge fan of From Software titles as well. But From Software titles generally need a few patches to iron out bugs along with promised DLC releases in the horizon I decided to wait. They should be commended that tgis game doesn't need any patches considering 95% of games nowadays need post release patch support. Don't let the lower price fool. This game has every right to be $60 and screams AAA across the board. Throughout the gameplay, design, writing, sound and voice acting this game is as close as you can to playing a Pixar movie. Can't believe I got this for $31 as a prime member. Still a steal at 39.99 + tax.



It's fan service if you played the original and other Ratchet & Clank games, but it is the origin story so it's accessible to new players, triple AAA Pixar graphics, sound, writing and voice acting. 12-15 hour story with hoverboards/races/arenas and cool weapons with new game plus. Accessible for all ages. $32-39 This game is must buy if you own a PS4. Thank you Insomniac and thank you Amazon.
