Ok, well, i just got the game today, and I’ve been playing for about an hour. I have to say that the begining is very nice, kind of like a movie. It hasn’t been very challenging so far, and I choose the Expert level, having mastered the first game. All I can say, is that they tried to give you something completely different as far game play. I won’t spoil the fun, by giving away what’s different, but if you are a fan and have young kids (3,7), they will be captivated by watching you play or if they are old enough, they should have no problem playing themselves.
If you are older and like challeging games, then, this may not be for you. This is very simular to the G-Force game. Cute and easy to play.
I only played an hour, but I can’t wait to contiune. It is cute afterall.
40 something with 2 young kids, and a gaming expert. I can’t play violent games, so I have to play these games… and overall they are fun.
I give it 4 stars for it’s potential to please and so far it has. I will update this as I play somemore.

The Ratchet and Clank series is a blast, including the latest A Crack in Time. After playing the first quarter of the game, the game did not disappoint. However, once I got to the part where you fight Libra, one of the Valkyrie leaders, the game stops and doesn’t allow me to advance further in the level. Although Insomniac has been aware of this problem for at least a week, Insomniac has not yet patched the problem. Until they do, I recommend not purchasing this game.

The game is totally locked up at the Mission review screen, and is unplayable. All other games work, so its not my hardware. And of course, no one will give a refund for a bad game. Googling I have not seen anyone else report this bug, but people are reporting many bugs. Insomniac flopped on this one.

WOW! That’s how I felt after having blown away the game in less than 24 hours, with every gold bolt, every weapon maxed, and every Zoni.
I felt totally ripped off, as this has got to be hands-down, the worse offering in the entire series……And it’s a series I LOVE! I haven’t a complaint on any of the previous games, but this was undeserving of the title Ratchet and Clank.
The one thing this game does have going for it, at least, is the same humor as before (if just a lot less of it). And I did get a chuckle when one of the released Fongoid’s yells “I can’t wait to see my wife”, to which another Fongoid says “Me TOO”. But that was the highlight of the game.
The weapon selection is pitiful, the customization of a few weapons, feels like cardboard cut outs. I don’t feel as if there is really even a point in customizing the weapons. The RYNO in this game is probably hands-down the weakest RYNO in the series, though the musical background when you hold down the trigger is a really great touch.
Normally, gold bolts are difficult to find in previous installments, and you really had to use some ingenuity to collect them all. In this game, most gold bolts are proceeded by a literal TRAIL (thinks huge breadcrumbs) of regular bolts. No need to pick up a hint book here, if you can’t find all the gold bolts, all you probably need is a stronger pair of glasses, because the bolts are right out in the open.
The graphics are great, but not up to PS3 standards. In my humble opinion, not much better than PS2. But there are some GORGEOUS space scenery, things I’d expect from a Star Trek Next Generation t.v. show episode.
Load times too, were a bit much; though at least they fill the time with interesting trivia tidbits.
Unlike other reviewers, I didn’t mind so much the Time Puzzles that Clank has to solve. But why there were a couple that made me retry a hand full of times, they were none-the-less, pretty straight forward, even the extra puzzles after the first play through were pretty easy (though the latter did take much more exacting timing to solve). I found them a bit tedious to play the 2nd time around, and it would have been nice if the puzzles would have changed, because that would have left at least some replay value.
There are a few nice touches here and there, don’t get me wrong. Just not enough of them.
All in all, I wish I could have given this game at least 4 stars, but honestly (and unfortunately) it just didn’t deserve it. I’d much rather continue replaying Tools of Destruction than spend any more time on this installment. Let’s hope Insomniac listens to some good criticism and makes the next installment worthy of the title Ratchet and Clank.
