Focus on what this is...

Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2012

Verified Purchase

Ratchet and Clank All 4 One is not like the Ratchet and Clank Future Trilogy. It does not have the same upgrade weapon trees. It doesn't have a very in-depth story. Hell, you can't even control the camera.

So why 5 stars? Because I knew that it wasn't going to be like previous Ratchet and Clank games. What endears me to this game more is that--despite its differences--it allows me to play with my daughter (and others) at the same time. The co-operative aspects of the game occasionally poses some challenges so in addition to simply PLAYING with someone else, I'm INTERACTING with them. I get a great deal of satifaction strategizing with my 9-year old daughter how to go about beating the next big boss fight and frantically coordinating our weapon selection to maximize our damage simultaneously. Or there is the crazy chaos of trying to deal with multiple enemies at the same time and finding the best way to beat the baddies. And then there's the puzzles which require teamwork.

Insomniac put a great deal of thought into what makes a good co-operative game. Some levels can't be beat without working as a team. Whether it be launching another player high into the area to hit a switch so the player below can activate another one, swingshoting across vast chasms in tandem, or selecting weapons to provide systemic destruction, Insomniac finds many ways for co-operative play to be challenging and fun simultaneously. It's not like the most recent Super Mario Bros. on the Wii where 4 players are chaotically moving across a level with the basics of co-operative play barely working at best.

Sure, the weapon upgrades are not as deep (3 per weapon - purchasable by bolts). Sure, the graphics take a hit. And sure, the story doesn't flow like the Future titles. But what the game does quite well is to keep things moving along and with 4 players on the screen at once, it manages to do so without taking a framerate hit with multiple-colored bolts flying across the screen to different players as rewards. If there was an upgrade weapon tree like Future, I could only imagine the groans as 4 players are trying to simultaneously upgrade their weapons for about 10 minutes as they weigh their choices. If the story were as deep as Future, it would detract from getting players back into the action.

Also, the diverse array of comical and creative weaponry is still there. You still get a pistol as your starting weapon. Add to that, though, the Blitzer which act as charged punching gloves. Or the Thunder Smack which creates lightning storms above your enemies. Or maybe you'd like to change your enemies into farm animals...or freeze them...or paralyze them with the whip of the Arc Lasher. Or you can listen to the smack-talk of Mr. Zurkon who does not need "bolts...his currency is pain." The hilarity is still there. Add to that the fact that when your teammates use the same weapons, some of the effects are greatly enhanced dealing extra damage. Some enemies require the systemic weapon choices to be defeated which, again, requires coordination/teamwork. It's quite cleverly done.

Can you play it as a single player? Of course you can - and that's where you will likely be disappointed because this is NOT like previous Ratchet & Clank titles. You will still suffer the same limitations as a single player and that's why you will be disappointed. This game was meant to be enjoyed as a multi-player experience, plain and simple. I love the fact that Insomniac teams our dynamic duo with two people they DON'T particularly like to work with: Qwark and Nefarious. And yes, Nefarious still occasionally malfunctions and broadcasts melodramatic soap operas through his mouth. :)

So if you're looking for a Future-like title, you will be sorely disappointed. I understand that completely. But this game wasn't made with that in mind.

Good Family Game

Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2015

Fun family game. Easy enough for a 6 year old, but fun enough for adults too. All 4 people can play on the same screen (no split screen).

Likes: 1-4 players at a time.
Easy for the youngest, but fun enough for older people too.
Funny cutscenes
Nothing to worry about for younger kids, no bad words, etc.
Moves along fast enough to maintain interest.
Hard to fail, you really dont die or ever have to start over.
Funny banter.

Dislikes:
Cant choose more than one of the same person. All 4 people have to be someone different, and no one wants to be Clank because hes very small and hard to see.
Game doesn't wait on other players. If one player runs ahead, the slow people get left behind and the game really caters too much to the lead person on the screen. Lead person can leave others in the dust, causing them to die or miss loot at times.
Cant share money. The kids like to rush through the game, and they dont have enough money to upgrade as a result. Wish you could share money so everyone ccan upgrade weapons at the same time.

Surprisingly good, if shallow, Ratchet and Clank Entry

Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2013

Verified Purchase

While this particular entry in Sony's Ratchet and Clank series has gotten some negative press from both long-time fans, as well as those who only played and enjoyed the prior 2 PS3 entries, it turns out it's not a bad game at all. In fact, its old-school feel is rather endearing. That being said, it helps to adjust your expectations before going in.

Unlike the first 3 Ratchet and Clank PS2 games, or the "Tools of Destruction" and "Crack in Time" entries for the PS3, this game is much more linear in design, and is broken into discrete levels with a set path. In addition, the vast majority of this game takes place on the same planet, with 2 additional locations at the beginning and somewhere after the middle of the game, as opposed to multiple planets across a galaxy. The camera is fixed, and set fairly far away from the characters, although this is for a reason: the game is a cooperative game. Even if you are playing this alone, there will be a computer-guided second player character. And while there are multiple weapons, they are fewer in number than prior installments. The game also sees a return to strictly autoaiming, as opposed to the Gears of War-inspired "over the shoulder" aiming option in the prior PS3 games.

The good news is that, despite all these changes, the game is actually pretty fun, in an old-fashioned, almost 16-bit era way. Despite there being only 3 planets in the game, there's a pretty good variety of environments across the game, and the emphasis on vivid color that the series is known for overall is on display here. Most importantly, the game is well paced in terms of action. While not a particularly long game, it seems like the time spent counts. To be honest, I felt "A Crack in Time" was a bit of a letdown, as it felt like the content was stretched too thin in favor of trying to provide "oh, wow, look at that!" moments, a la Call of Duty. Here, there are still some of those moments (at the risk of spoiling things, you get to take control of a titanic robot at one point), but the time in-between them is good, meat and potatoes gameplay, as opposed to feeling like an obligatory after-thought. You might be zipping along on a jetpack in a 2D section in huge caverns, navigating among asteroids to get to a moon, sliding down a frozen arctic slope, guiding a raft, or jumping among crumbling platforms on floating islands. The gunplay may feel simplified, but there's plenty of it. In some ways, it's a bit reminiscent of the first Ratchet and Clank game, with its to-the-point charm.

That's not to say this game doesn't have flaws. The ammo system in this game isn't quite up to snuff, and the auto-aiming can sometime give the player a lot of grief. Plus, the focus on co-op sort of forces the game to behave a certain way, and accomodate the need to keep all characters (there can be up to 4 players at one time) on screen. And of course, the simplified focus means that this game, while definitely replayable, is simply not as deep as many of us would have wanted it to be. That being said, this is a much better "side-story" entry than the PS2's "Ratchet: Deadlocked", which veered way too far afield from the franchise's core appeal. If you can accept it for what it does, as opposed to what it doesn't do, All-4-One is actually a pretty good, if not particularly deep, action game.
