Okay, so this is the first Ratchet and Clank game I've played, but it is REALLY AWESOME. Unlike the combat oriented games (Up Your Aresnal, Deadlocked), this game returns to the platform roots of the original and Going Commando (I've only played this game, but I have quite a lot of knowledge of the other games). The game runs at about 60 fps, yet still as great physics (though sometimes some objects got stuck in the air), and good lighting. Weapons are good and funny (I laughed at some of the enemies' dances with the Groovitron).
Good: -Great platforming -Funny -Plenty of weapons -Upgrade system has a deeper depth
Bad: -Ending is a cliffhanger (and we all know how much we hate cliffhangers, and, yes, I'm talking about you, Halo 2) -The great visuals can cause your PS3 to overheat without proper ventilation (do NOT put your PS3 next to a Wii that is running when playing this game). The game is nice, but it uses up about all of the PS3's horsepower.
