About

A game about the adventures of Cosmic fennec Ratchet and his friend and ally, the robot Clank, whom Ratchet carries behind him in his satchel.
Ratchet wants to be a space ranger, and he gets a chance to show that he deserves it. The missions look very serious, Ratchet himself is very serious - but this is a game, and one of its main features is humour and an elegant parody.
The game corresponds to the canon of the genre, but always offers something that makes every mission and every decision fresh. For example, a mission in which it is necessary to steal weapons technology from an enemy planet - to execute it, you need to knock out as many brains as possible from giant flying octopuses. Why? Because these brains can exchange the necessary technology from one local scientist, who needs brains for the experiments, but the boss does not give it to him.
The gameplay consists of destroying enemies in a variety of unexpected ways, with weapons of fourteen kinds, and among them a shotgun that turns enemies into pixel pictures and then crushes them into pixels. There are a lot of such finds in the game. In addition to shooting, there are chases and other things. And besides weapons - a lot of useful original devices.

Ratchet & Clank reviews and comments

Ruined the original story and mocks fans like we wouldn't be upset they completely re-wrote ratchet's story
The game play is better than the original, the story is worse.

Insomniac has never made a bad game.
Very short, a lack of characterization for several main characters (including Crank!) but it’s looks great and the weapons/action are fun.
Overall: 6/10
Gameplay: 7/10
Story: 6/10 if you grew up with the duo, 4/10 if you didn’t.
Music: 6/10

This game is, for me, a nostalgia trip. Almost any of its appeal comes purely from that and nothing else, as the game itself is pretty mediocre. The gameplay is fun, and we’re given the usual wacky guns and antics you can expect from a Ratchet and Clank game. The mechanics involving the duo working together that I loved in the older games are less apparent here, however. It’s a short enough game that it never feels too repetitive or boring, but it’s just... mediocre! The story is fine, but feels reliably childlike. (I remember the original having much more engaging plot lines and being spiced with edgier humor.) Overall, worth a play if you grew up with the series if only to relive those memories. Also worth a play if you’re young, or are playing with a youngster (under the age of 11 I’d say). Skip it if you don’t fall into either of those categories, though.
This is a standard Playstation 3D platformer/shooter. The tone is cheeky and maybe funny to a teenager, but didn't work on me. It's  disappointing because Ratchet and Clank are great characters surrounded by idiots. 

The final boss was infuriatingly hard in a way that the devs didn't prepare me for throughout the campaign. 

The guns was very fun, and while the upgrade path was a little gimicky it was nice upgrading them.
It's a good old Ratchet & Clank game well rebooted, the new graphics look amazing and it's very entertaining. It felt kind of short to me.
Ratchet and Clank is a game based on a movie nobody watched based on a game almost everyone played until that streak ended with current-gen consoles saying, "I hate the past because it is stinky."

For a reboot, it's tame compared to other entries. For a standalone game for newcomers like myself, it's not that bad. The game itself is really, really fun and the gameplay is super engaging while also being VERY hard. Though some of the music is eh, the characters are ehh, and the writing is ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I also don't like how this game apparently thinks I've never played a video game before and has the balls to remind me of every little thing like underwater, jetpacks, jumping, rails, money, trees, air, oxygen, food, shelter, Earth, the universe, the galaxy, death itself, just knock it off already. Let's not forget to mention that everyone in this is legally required to spout corny one-liners that make them look like tween gamer shirts at Walmart every fifth of a second.

It's definitely got its poopy moments, but I still recommend it if you want more action platformer shooters. I'd say it's worth $20, but I got it for free on PS Plus, so go your own way, I guess.

My childhood. Ratchet & Clank is funny, quirky and platforming at its best. This remake of the original title is well worth the time and money. 8.5/10
Probably if I had played original games on PS2 or if  I were 7 years old I would love this title. Unfortunately I got bored after 7 hours and barely made it to the end, but I still enjoyed it!
