Ratchet & Clank is one of my favorite video game franchises of all time. Since the next game, Into the Nexus, comes out in North America this month, I thought it would be great to do a written review on every installment to show my appreciation for the series. I begin Ratchet & Clank by reviewing the first installment, simply titled Ratchet & Clank.
After finishing the Spyro trilogy on the PS1, Insomniac Games parted ways with the series to develop a new franchise, and while I’ve never played the Spyrogames (yet), I thought it was a great decision overall, pretty much like how Naughty Dog parted ways with Crash Bandicoot to begin Jak and Daxter. What resulted was the beginning (I’ll say it again) of one of my favorite video game franchises of all time. But with several sequels making improvements and new additions, does this game hold up as well? Let’s find out.
