best ratchet and clank ever

First of all, this is the best ratchet and clank. From the unique weapons to the awesome multiplayer,this game is a must-own. The weapons in this game are in the best in ratchet and clank and each one is fun to use(except the infector). The multiplayer is fun and addicting and best of all,IT'S ONLINE.If you ever want to buy a ratchet game, buy this one. It's one of the best ps2 games ever.

What? A review of this game? Aren't you a bit late?

Explanations: Yep. This is late. Short version? Procrastination and no PS3. Ratchet and Clank: Up Your Arsenal: But, as I'm still bereft of a PS3 and what looks like the spectacular Ratchet & Clank: Future game, I went back to my PS2 and got back into this game, playing it in challenge mode and got suitably hooked all over again. For those of us who are even later than me, here are the specifics (Spoilers? I'll try to avoid'em). In our heroes home galaxy things are looking iffy with the menace of an old Captain Quark enemy, Dr. Nefarious returning to wreak vengeance on all 'squishies' everywhere. The cut-scenes are inventive and ocassionally inspired (note the Courtney Gears video part-way through), the level layouts quite good, the graphics are great, and the controls are intuitive with dual analog sticks. But the big draw is simply the weaponry. Lots of it. As in 'Boom'. And that's the thing that's keeping me hooked right now. Just had to get those last few experience points on the R3YNO gun. A few points off for some annoying level grinds necessary to upgrade the off-weapons and the annoyance of me not being quite good enough to take on the end-boss yet. I'll get there with some more upgraded equipment...next time. ...but overall very addictive and fun. Sidenote: Easy way to level up the R3YNO? Once you have it, go to Annihilation Nation. Enter the Scorpio or Naptime levels (which also features Scorpio). Start shooting with the R3YNO as soon as Scorpio appears. He'll go down in a couple shot-clusters. Eventually going down (as your weapon gets more powerful) with one shot-cluster. Easy, but boring 500xp to the weapon. Rinse, Repeat. Watch the message from Gadgetron employees when you reach the R3YNOCIRATOR...as they cringe in fear..heh heh.

Hell Yeah!!!!!!!

Ratchet and Clank, Up Your Arsenal is the best R&C game that has ever been made. It has the graphics, it has the cool weapons, and it has a Courtney Gears music video. lol. Overall, this is one truely awsome game to play mulitplayer, or single player. This is a must have for the true Ratchet and clank fan. I can't think of a better game to get for your ps2.

the third ratchet and clank

there are 3 of my favorite features in this game: the inferno armor, being a space monkey, and the trophies( but mainly the trophies). the only bad part about this game are the parts when clank gets ALL the credit for RATCHETS hard work.

By far, this is my favorite trilogy of all time. Each game gets better & better. WARNING: not for peope who can't hadle intense action, spectacular weapons/upgrades, & hilarious dialogue. Everything is still here, but it's still gets better. Wow! Imsomniac really caught me off guard. Ratchet & Clank, I salute you!

The best Rachet & Clank game yet

Up Your Arsenal is a great game. It has single player and multiplayer. The story line is very well done with a twist that you wouldn't expect. Old friends make an appearance. In this game their is even more guns then before with each one having a maximum level of 10. The environments are engaging with good graphics and enemies galore. The game is not quick if you want to beat it 100% their are platinum bolts, and other secrets to keep you playing long after you have beaten the game. One of the best things about this Rachet and Clank is the multiplayer. Their are 8 weapons available that can each be leveled up once. The vehicles are very fun to use but not impossible to beat. The big levels allow for good games of capture the flag. Deathmatch is fun as well. The new game type seige is fun, but not as great as the other two modes. Overall Rachet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal is an amazing game that can keep you entertained for hours on end.

ONLY SHIOTS

THis game...well i was surprised, i never thought itd be this great!! Ive played the other 2, but this is definitly my favorite. There are nice weapons and plenty of them. The levels are a nice size, and wen theres a lot of enimies to face, it can get pretty hard. Theres an interesting story thatll keep u in the game. Theres even some mini games to play around with wen u dont feel like playin the real game. The game is nice and long and ull never get bored. I spent about 20 hours on this game... Graphics- Their okay, but they could use some work- 4/5 Gameplay/ Story- Plenty to do and explore, nice weapons and they work very well. The story is very interesting and itll keep u in the game. Sound- There are plenty of nice voice overs and plently of funny ones. Plenty of nice cut scenes that r funny FUN FACTOR- The levels could b bigger, but thats bout it...overall...4.5/5

The Ultimate Platformer

This game is the greatest platformer and game. Its first game was good, and so was its scond, but this one was AWESOME. Ther are over 20 weapons and gadgets, including weapons from the first and last game. My personal favorite, the RY3NOSERIZER, shoots huge blasts, turns the screen white, and turns everyone, except you, into dust. This game deserves a 7.5 by far, but that is just too high. There are also levels where you can play as Clank, Clunk, Giant Clank, and Captain Qwark. This game is surely a game that deserves a better grade than Jak 3, so to all those previous owners, get this game!!!
