Ratchet & Clank
SCORE: 65
I am very thankful Family Friendly Gaming
had the money to purchase Ratchet & Clank on the Playstation 4. I have
never been that big on this franchise. Sony tries to make their
platformers more adult only in my opinion. They do not try as hard as
say Nintendo or Microsoft to make family friendly titles. That is a good
full disclosure of my opinions of this franchise and the company that
made it.
Ratchet & Clank is a retelling of the Playstation 2 video game. We jump,
whack things with a wrench, and shoot things. It is so easy to run out
of bullets in Ratchet & Clank. In fact it frustrated me how many times I
ran out of bullets for one weapon and had ammo for other weapons I could
not use. The swinging mechanic in Ratchet & Clank is really cool and
fun.
The issues families will have with Ratchet & Clank are blood, gore,
violence, crude humor, innuendo, and more. Ratchet & Clank references
content that let the player know the characters understand this is a
video game. There are some lies and deceit in Ratchet & Clank too. Some
of the weapons in Ratchet & Clank are more violent than others.
The storyline in Ratchet & Clank is what really caught my attention. I
do not remember the storytelling being so engaging in the past. I love
how this game is told. I won’t spoil that for you because there are some
major plot points that happen immediately in Ratchet & Clank. I am not
big on the gameplay in Ratchet & Clank. The story kept me playing to see
what happened next.
I am not big on the flying controls in Ratchet & Clank. I also did not
like little glitches like a button not working until I heard certain
crude humor dialogue. If you missed the Playstation 2 version of Ratchet
& Clank then you might be interested in the Playstation 4 version. I
could have happily lived without playing this game.
