Product reviews...
If you are a fan of the Ratchet and Clank series then you will not be disappointed with this addition to the series.
We join this wonderful duo who have been separated from each other, who are trying to work their way back to each other whilst learning more about their pasts. As always the evil Dr Nefarious is there trying to take over the universe and trying to control the ultimate power, time itself. The story line is great and answers some of the bigger questions surrounding our duo.
During game play you upgrade weapons and your ship, the ship part can get a bit irritating but worth it. There's plenty to do, the golden bolts lie hidden so there is the search for those, there is the gladiator games as always and then you search for the Zoni, who you need to collect to upgrade your vessel (some can be very time consuming and irritating trying to catch them. The main game play is good with plenty of features so that each character plays well on their own.
For what is said to be the final in the Ratchet and Clank series, you can be assured it goes out with a bang.
