Ratchet & Clank Collection

I never owned many Playstation systems in my life, I always leaned toward those 'other' guys. I even went through two PS2's trying to finish Kingdom Hearts 2, but decided to not buy a third PS2 after my first two outright broke. I did have a PS3 and now that remaking older classics seems to be common place, there's no reason for me to get older Playstation consoles and also no reason for me not to play games like Ratchet and Clank. While this is not a new release it has taken me a while to get around to buying it, and it was a great buy. This game, obviously, comes with the first three Ratchet and Clank games. The graphics aren't remastered at all really, and still look PS2 worthy even in their 1080p screen time, but graphics don't make the game and these games are extremely fun. It brings me back to the times when games were made to be games, not all this VR hyper realistic open world choice based cry-over-the-characters games (not that there's anything wrong with those). Of the three I would say the second Ratchet and Clank is my favorite with the third being my least favorite. The stories are hilarious, the combat is great (although I despise how they give you so much nanotech in the later two games but enemies do so much damage you die in 3 hits anyway, even with armor upgrades), and they're all extremely memorable even for today. I was glad to be able to experience them all and recommend this to people who haven't played the games before, or for people who have and want to relive the glory of Ratchet and Clank.

I received the game yesterday, so i only manage to play Ratchet and clank: Up your arsenal (which is btw my favorite game, along with God of war, for the ps2). Let me tell you something... It is still as fun as i played 5 years ago! I'm so glad they did a hd of this game, because the current R&C for the ps3 are nothing compared to this classic. (Dont get me wrong they are fantastic, but it does not have the same impact as Up your Arsenal). If you havent played any R&C, this is your chance to buy this game. It combines the first 3 r&c on the ps2: Ratchet and clank, Ratchet and Clank: commando and Ratchet & Clank: Up your arsenal. The Ratchet & Clank series is like a mix of platformer and 3rd person shooter type of game, with lovely characters and funny setting. I havent played the first two but I going edit this later when I played, but for now, I can tell you that Ratchet and clank is addicting!!, leveling your weapons, and buying weapons, collecting bolts (money), finding hidden treasures make this game amazing ! Once you start playing it is Very hard to put it down, you want to see what is going to happen next... So for $30 dollar, I highly recommend to buy this game to anyone who have a ps3,no matter if you played on the ps2 6 years ago or even if you dont like fluffly characters, this game is extremely fun. Heck, I would have payed $30 dolars only for Up you arsenal. Also this game have trophy which makes it more addicting! Edit: I played the other 2 ratchet, and to be honest.. the first Ratchet is... terrible! controls are bad, ratchet is so hard to move around and weapons does not upgrade.. So if you are not a fan of R&C and you are no interested in the story, you wont be able to play the first cause is terrible. Luckily the second one is so much better, from there the upgrading weapon system is available and ratchet move as easy as it should be. So aside from the first ratchet, the collection is awesome!! Still in love with the third R&C: Up your arsenal, it is a masterpiece, the best in the series. It is obvious how much R&C have improved from the first one!

As the title says, look elsewhere for a review of the games. I loved all three, both on PS2 and PS3, and thus the collection gets a 5 for fun, but I just briefly wanted to mention a few things I thought about the PS3 conversion itself. First off, compared to other Collections I have played, the "Collection Menu" (where you choose your game) is inferior. There is a slight lag between choosing the game you want, and I feel you have to hit X at least 10 times before the game is actually selected. This is most likely due to the fact that you have to wait for a video to load in a corner of the screen, which would be a nice feature had it not made the menu so laggy. As for graphics, during most gameplay, the collection has been beautifully converted into HD. In all 3 games, however, the in-game "movies" (as opposed to the cutscenes) have been left in their original condition. Aside from reduced graphics, this is most noticeable by the fact that they are played in splitscreen (vs. widescreen for everything else). Not a huge disappointment, but it does look a bit cheap. Severe FPS drops at times are my biggest problem with the Collection. During 90% of gameplay, this never occurs. However, if there are a lot of enemies on screen, combined with weapons that use a large amount of particles (e.g. the "grenade launcher" style weapons in all 3 games), you will definitely notice the drop. Of particular note is the sewer area in Aquatos in R&C3, as if you run past the enemies without killing them, they will not despawn, and the game will begin to severely lag as more and more enemies spawn throughout the area. Overall, as the games are for the most part fantastic, the collection gets a 4/5 from me.

it freezes here and there, but a simple wipe on the disk with a special cloth - but game works perfectly fine. 9/10 when It runs. 10/10 for the games! 3 amazing games - the nostalgia was great thanks
