Ratchet and Clank Future is a great addition to the series.
Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction is the 5 game in the Ratchet and Clank Series, not including the PSP ratchet and clank game. Ratchet and Clank Future obviously takes place in the future but that does not mean everything changes due to future being in the title. Actually, Ratchet and Clank Future may be set in the future but It can be really hard tell just by playing the game. The game is very identical to the past games in the series, which isn’t a bad thing. Ratchet and Clank set off to stop Emperor Tachyon, the crown prince of the Cragmites, but before they can do that they need some answers first.
Ratchet and Clank Future plays very much like the other 4 games in the series. You still have a wrench for melee attacks, and you can still purchase many different weapons and upgrade them and level them up. You also can purchase gadgets such as the groovitron, which makes your enemies dance, and you can purchase armor. Also, there will be certain moments in the game where you will have to play as Clank in order to get something or activate something. While playing as Clank you can control the Zoni, mysterious robots that only clank can see and they help guide clank to his objective.
The graphics on the other hand have changed, in a really good way. The graphics in Ratchet and Clank Future look amazing. Everything you do in the game will look great and the characters look very detailed. I never saw the frame rate drop at all during my play through.
After beating the game you get the option of time travelling to the beginning of the game, or starting challenge mode. Challenge mode has increased difficulty but you get to keep all of your weapons from your first play through.
Overall, Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction is a great game and should not be missed by anyone who owns a PS3.
