 going commando June 26, 2008
unfortunately I was sold the '' greatest hits'' version of the game , which was really not what I wanted . The ad for the product clearly shows the original version playable with my code breaker . Needless to say that I am disappointed after wasting my money for an item , especially since I already own the ''greatest hits'' version
 Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando Review June 25, 2008
Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando is an excellent follow up to the superb platformer Ratchet & Clank. The storyline is similar to the first game and basically involves the protagonists, (R&C you guessed it) journey as the attempt to rid the galaxy of an evil threat. The game features exciting fast paced combat, with quite a variety of guns at your disposal. There are also a variety of subquests in which you participate in activities such as bike racing, spaceship dogfighting, and manning a turret, to name a few. In addition to having more weapons than the original R&C, in this installation your weapons gain experienced when used, and eventually level up. Leveling up trnasforms the weapon in a positive way, making it more powerful and in some cases adds another functionality. Another improvement from the first game is the ability to strafe, allowing more in-depth control during situations where there can be tons of objects to dodge The difficulty of this game is just about right, and the sound and environment are incredibly well done. My only complaints are that the gameplay is slightly repetitive and, this ties into the second complaint, if you want to completely beat this game and get every weapon fully upgraded, you're going to have to do a lot of repetitive gameplay to acquire the necessary amount of bolts to purchase all the weapons. Overall, 9.1 out of 10, I strongly recommend this title to a newcomer or follower of the series, or anyone looking for a solid 20ish hour action adventure game.
Certainly worth the money June 8, 2008
Quirky humor tossed in with a steady stream of baddies to beat, burn and otherwise creatively defeat? That's my kind of game! The game presents a nice mix of genres, having racing, platform jumping and puzzle solving at different points of the story line.
The areas flow pretty smoothly, though I ran into a few that seemed darn near impossible to complete. With a good deal of persistence and lot of running around gathering bolts to upgrade the armor those areas get a lot easier to handle. Frame rate drops for no apparent reason on some planets. It was noticable but didn't really take away from game play.
I have the first three in this series. They're all fun and have replay value. You want to make sure you get all of the platinum bolts, upgrade all of the weapons and unlock all of the secrets!
Good April 5, 2008
A good game because it set a high standard for all the other ratchet and clank games to come, clearly this and the first one are the best in the series
Wonderful! February 25, 2008
This is truly the gem of the series. If you want a solid representation of this R&C, start here and you'll be hooked.
R&C is a standard 3rd-person shooter, but manages to stand out above the rest. Its simple and humorous story-line results in a rather linear advancement... but always with a few objectives at once so that you can decide where you'd rather go first. The weapons are always entertaining, and the enemies will almost always pose a challenge.
Compared to the 1st and 3rd in the series:
Insomniac took R&C1 and upgraded it immensely! They added the ability to upgrade weapons, a steady health increase, and progressively more difficult enemies. They even expanded the worlds to be much larger and more complex.
When compared to R&C3, this game reigns supreme. R&C3 got rid of the races, simplified the maps (shortening the game in general), and made weapon upgrades such small improvements that they never feel different. R&C3, however, did add the little Qwark mini-games, but those are never challenging, and just serve as a way to earn more bolts.
Regardless of your age, if you enjoy blowing things up or turning them into sheep, this game is worth your time and money. As an added bonus, it includes the voice acting of Neil Flynn (Janitor on "Scrubs") and Kath Soucie (Cubert on "Futurama")!
