Ratchet & Clank (PS2, 2002) playthrough part 1: A stellar classic returns
A return to a classic of my childhood, never finished it before the final boss
Ratchet & Clank is the first installment in the Ratchet & Clank series developed by Insomniac Games and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. It was initially released in November 2002 for the PlayStation 2 and re-released for the PlayStation 3 in June 2012 and PlayStation Vita in July 2014, both individually and as part of the Ratchet & Clank Collection. A remake of the game was released for the PlayStation 4 in April 2016.
The game is set in the year 5354, and it follows lone lombax mechanic Ratchet, who lives on Veldin and has a longing to leave the world. His life is changed forever when blargian robot Clank crash-lands on his planet and enables him to leave. The two then embark on an adventure to seek the help of intergalactic celebrity Captain Qwark in their fight to save the galaxy from Chairman Drek, a businessman who wants to create a new world for his people by extracting parts from other planets.
Ratchet & Clank is a third-person action-adventure title, with elements of platforming, shooting, role-playing games, and puzzle-solving. Players explore many planets to complete objectives, obtain an infobot that provides coordinates to another planet, and progress through the story. Along the way, they acquire many weapons and gadgets, as well as earn bolts, the main form of currency in the series, which can be used to purchase new weaponry and many other in-game items.
Fourteen years later, a movie retelling the events of the game was released in theaters on April 29, 2016, along with a PlayStation 4 re-imagining based on the movie told from Qwark's perspective, released earlier on April 12, 2016, in North America.
