Jumping, shooting, chasing, shooting, spinning… and shooting abound in this action packed platformer title. The dynamic duo of Ratchet-the lombax superhero & Clank-the robot sidekick is back at it again in a portable version of the Play Station 2 release. As platform crossovers go, this is a definite success: the look and feel of the game remain almost unchanged with maybe just a few stumbles due to the limiting controls of the PSP. The story begins with Ratchet and Clank lounging on a beech, ready for a massage and a tune up - a well-deserved break from their previous superhero adventures. A little girl named Luna comes by with a mission to become their acquaintance and to take their pictures for a school project. Alas, she gets kidnapped and her new friends set off on their new rescue adventure. The player will be entertained with the variety of weapons and power ups as well as the different types of armor. Great humor, dazzling graphics and fast action make this game a must have for PSP fan's ages 8 years and older.

Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters

If you ever wanted to know what it’s like to be an ottsel, without having to be knocked into a pool of Dark Eco, then this game is for you. Even if you don’t know what an ottsel is, you would be thoroughly entertained making his acquaintance in this game version for the PSP. Daxter is a furry creature mix between an otter and a weasel who is on a quest to rescue his friend Jak. In doing so he will battle many obstacles including exterminating nasty metal bugs, jumping between trains, climbing and riding. After completing a number of tasks Daxter can scoot back to his bed where he dreams some very funny dreams. All of those are spoofs of box office hits like The Matrix and Braveheart. The graphics of this game are very good and the animation in the cut scenes is some of the best for a hand held device. The game play can be a bit tricky with the PSP controls but fortunately the setbacks are minimal. Overall this game is enjoyable, fluid and a great title for the PSP.
