Although it’s a small upgrade it makes all the difference. In the HD version of the game, the wind tunnel created when in use looks much sharper. It’s the friendly fire of the Ratchet & Clank world. While it may not be as strong as some of the weapons in the subsequent games, I’ve always loved the idea of sucking in enemies and using them as ammo on the next batch of enemies. In the beginning of the original Ratchet & Clank game, Ratchet finds the Suck Gun, one of my personal favourite weapons. The weaponry is the exact same as the original games, but like the rest of the HD upgrade, they are much better to look at.
#Ratchet and clank collection ps3 series
One of the more innovative features Insomnia always brought to the Ratchet & Clank series is the choice of weaponry the Lombax can carry and purchase. The upgrade to HD is noticeable enough (especially when you’re playing through those winter levels), and the added 3D comes off as a gimmick from Sony. While 3D technology has come a long way since first developed, for a game like Ratchet & Clank, it comes off clunky and becomes tedious for eyes after a while. I would strongly advise you not to venture off into the 3D realm with this particular game. Players can also choose to play the Ratchet & Clank HD Collection series in 3D if they have television sets which support the technology. While the weaponry has remained the same, players can carry over certain weapons via their save file, or can purchase them at any vendor. For example, the online multi player originally available on Up Your Arsenal has been reinstated and players can play the co-operative mode with up to eleven players online. There isn’t anything new, per se, but there are some features Insomniac removed from the previous Ratchet & Clank games which have made a miraculous comeback in this collection. The Sly Cooper demo was added by Sony because the Ratchet & Clank HD Collection was released late in North America, an apology of sorts for a delayed release compared to Europe. Not only are you receiving all four games for the breakdown price of ten dollars a game, but you’re also getting the newest Sly Cooper demo. With that being said, it would be foolish not to purchase the collection. The original visuals of the character may have been changed for the better, but it feels lackluster.

It’s like looking at an 8-Bit Squirrtle and comparing it to a modern Squirttle. There is something to be said, however, about the original character design. Don’t get me wrong, I loved seeing the always adorable Ratchet & Clank characters in HD. While new fans to the series may appreciate the modernization of Ratchet, older fans may not. Sony and Insomniac have just taken the original games and given them an aesthetically pleasing make-over. The remodelling of the series is exactly that. While the nostalgia can be incentive on its own, the question remains is it worth $40? Right off the bat, there aren’t any new gameplay features. If There’s no Changes, Why Should I Buy it?
