I've never played a R&C game before. Or a Jak game. I really wanted the latest of both of them, but what too lazy to do anything about it.

Maybe i'll get them this time around.

I remember the first person I discussed the original Ratchet and Clank game with was you. We were both pretty amazed and surprised at how good it was, and brought a completely new feel to the 3D platformer.

Yeah the series is great. I loved the first two, and this one is just amazing. Seriously, if you want absoutely everything good that you could possibly get from a action/adventure platformer, this is it. And the multiplayer is god-like.

Does anyone care to do a write-up on the pros and cons? I'll give you gold.

Ok...I'm not done the game yet, but I'll share my thoughts after 7 hours of single player and a few rounds of multiplayer.

Pros:
-Wonderful characters and humor
-superb graphics and design (some levels so far rank pretty high on the "HOLY SH*TE" scale)
-tons and tons and tons of weapons and gadgets. and do I mean tons, and all upgradable.
-platforming fun with great objectives and side quest thingies
-lots of variety in gameplay. you can control clank as well, turn into the big robo clank and smash stuff, fly in ratchets ship and shoot things, fun fun.
-multiplayer owns you and yo mama

Cons:
-single player is quite similar in style to the past two games. not really a con for me, but its something some people might nit pick. its by far the best package of the 3.
-um...i dunno, not really anything else.

Is multiplayer only online? THat is about the only question I have.

nope...there is 4 player split-screen as well, and apparently it runs without a hitch
