Ratchet and Clank Future

[Misty]

Ratchet and Clank Future is now available at the PlayStation store for download! I have been looking sooooo forward to this game for a while, and I'm downloading it right now.

This is going to be the best Ratchet and Clank yet.....or until another one comes along.

You can play the entire first level of the game.

You're lucky. I had to wait a couple of minutes to download the demo.

I played a little bit of it, and it's the Ratchet and Clank I know and love all right. I like the sequences where you slide on those pipes while avoiding incoming trains. Just like Tony Hawk.

Can't wait to get the retail version. The end of the demo was like a cliffhanger.

Is it just me or has there always been some sort of underlying comparison between Ratchet and Clank/Jak and Daxter

Re: Ratchet and Clank Future demo out now in the PlayStation Store

I think Naughty Dog and Insomniac games are good friends or something.

Re: Ratchet and Clank Future demo out now in the PlayStation Store

I wouldn't doubt the relationship because they really do remind me of eachother, although Jak ended up turning into something completely different after the first game

Yeah, they've been partners since the PSX days when they worked closely on Spyro and Crash

Just tried this one out, too. It was kinda cool. I haven't been playing the Ratchet games, though. It was kind of hectic until I got used to shooting the **** out of everything. I also came off the second rail and completely overshot the landing by double-jumping and using the wrench pound attack. My forward momentum threw me off the edge. It was great.

1.5 gigs in a few minutes? Jesus, what do you have, a T3 connection?

That same download would take me like 10 hours to download.

Re: Ratchet and Clank Future demo out now in the PlayStation Store

I've got a cable internet connection, so maybe that had something to do with it. Took 15 to 20 minutes to download.

I'm already convinced that Ratchet and Clank Future is a must-buy for me....if playing the demo six or so times and still playing it is any indication!

I can't wait...I WANT IT NOW!!!!!

Re: Ratchet and Clank Future demo out now in the PlayStation Store

Yeah, i downloaded the demo last night, and it only took me about 30 minutes or so. I think maybe less. And the game itself is fantastic. I would preorder the game right now...but i preordered it 2 months ago, hehe.

The Ratchet games, IMO, are the epitome of awesome action/platformers, and were the best of their kind from the last gen. And it looks like it is going to be the same for this gen too. (i'm asking for it with that comment, but i dont care)

I don't know. It was fun, but it seems like mostly just mindless THROW HEAVY WEAPONRY AND QUIRKY WEAPONS AT THE ENEMY with frequent on-rails gameplay. I'd like to play more of it, but I'm not really a renting type of guy, and I don't want to shell out the coin for it.

Re: Ratchet and Clank Future demo out now in the PlayStation Store

Oh, I don't know about that, Rick. The demo only scratches the surface on the true potential of the game. Sure, there's a lot of weapons and destruction and stuff, but that's the beauty of the game, and the reason why I love it. Ratchet and Clank does a lot of things right and succeeds where most other platformers don't do as well. I really like the sliding rail sequences and the fact that you can control more of Clank this time around. Plus, you can experience theatrical sound quality.

That Captain Quark is a character.
