Ratchet & Clank: Tools of Destruction Comments by Kristan Reed

>One again, Eurogamer proves how firmly biased against PS3 they are. This 8/10 score is ludicrous and can only stem from ignorance or prejudice. I won't be checking out this website in a while, that's for sure.

Errr.. Gamespot gave it a 7 :)

"About 1.5 gb of the 360 discs are used up by security measurements....So a 360 disc can actually hold about 7GB of data."

Ah, forgot about that. Thanks.

I've slapped my own face in response. :D

Sorry Arwin, you right, me wrong, me go now. ;)

Ok...saying the textures were ps2-esque was stretching it, but some are saying it's one of the best looking games out there.

The grass is a flat texture, like a piece of wood painted green...hardly anything to write home about.

Heavenly Sword is clearly better looking.

8/10? Wow, Mario eats this game up and shits it out his hairy Italian ass!

i enjoyed it. never really had a camera problem either. looks pretty nice too, but man, after 30 minutes of playing any game, do you really care/notice anymore?

I've been playing the game all night and I love it. It's my first Ratchet & Clank game as I only tried the PS2 games in demo form. While it's not doing anything particularly innovative, it's all very slick and enjoyable and surprisingly varied so far. The game even has decent Star Fox shooting sections. I wouldn't go as far as to say it's the best game ever or anything but it's definitely the best exclusive game on the PS3 and it would appear in my top ten games of the year. It's also very funny too (l was in stitches at the bit where Clank gets "knocked" out while he and Ratchet are escaping the first planet in the Emperor's ship) and the two lead characters are appealing and well-animated.

Looks absolutely lovely too. So what if it doesn't have hi-res textures, it makes up for it with fantastic art and terrific design. This is meant to be cartoonish not realistic. It's definitely one of the prettiest games I've seen and is up there with Eternal Sonata in my opinion. Love colourful cartoon games me.

just as good as Gears of war?

"just as good as Gears of war?"

No, have a look at Game rankings or Metacritic, but nice try son.

Is anyone there having problems installing the game on P33. It keeps coplaining of insufficient hdd space (have 40gb free) Tried deleting stuff (more then 500 GB as per the advice on some threads) and updated the system but still the same problem

Is here a company WORSE then sony at the moment?

Deleted a few gigs worth of installs and it now works. But lord, what sort of quality control can miss such a basic problem with the installer?

Ratchet & Pants: Tools of Meh

can't wait to play it :)

Xiphos - chill out dude. It's a great game, and anyone who misses out because of prepubescent prejudice or system hate is only denying themselves a load of top grade gaming fun. Only you lose, sucker.

I thought the SMG review should have mentioned what a debt it owes to R&C. The much lauded little worlds, and gravity bending puzzles and platforming, and ship hub and the basic premise was done on the PS2 years ago, just minus the mustache and wiimote. Doesn't stop SMG being brilliant, and worth it's 10/10, but there does seem to be a rose tinted specs for anything Miyamoto based (not just at EG).

Nostromo13 seems to think this review score is too high!

^^^ You love the PS3 because it has one 8/10 platformer. Lol, times must be hard as a PS3 owner eh...

^^^ Just because his tastes are dissimilar to yours mean you have to mock him? R&C is a great game, if it's not to your taste why troll this section?
