Insomniac Games has overhauled its proprietary PS3 engine technology to create the most visceral Ratchet & Clank universe yet, overflowing with exotic creatures and flying vehicles.The PS3 system's superior power enables Ratchet & Clank: Tools of Destruction to bring vivid worlds to life with increased draw distances, enhanced lighting and shadowing, and more fluid and exaggerated animations. Discover an all-new galaxy spanning vast worlds such as a majestic cloud city and a space-age amusement park. Encounter an entirely new cast of expressive characters (and some old favorites) as well as the introduction of a variety of new alien races and life forms. Experience a more emotive Ratchet with nearly as many animation joints in his face as PS2 Ratchet had in his entire body. This joint density applies to many of the characters featured in Ratchet & Clank: Tools of Destruction, enabling more detailed, personable and expressive characters. Clank returns as a playable character, and Ratchet will have new enhanced abilities. Fire a fully stocked arsenal of all-new weapons such as the Plasma Beasts and Tornado Launcher, which uses the Sixaxis controller to direct tornadoes that suck up enemies and whip them around with debris. Use the Sixaxis controller to maneuver, destroy enemies and solve puzzles. Upgrade and customize weapons with a new system that provides greater power and flexibility. Players also will have the ability to upgrade Ratchet's armor. Utilise Ratchet's new supply of consumable "on-demand' combat devices, such as the Groovitron, which causes enemies to dance uncontrollably to '70s disco hits. Gadgets gameplay returns as Ratchet and Clank will have more gadgets at their disposal to help them bounce, fly, evade and defy gravity. Pilot Ratchet's ship through asteroid fields while trying to destroy enemy fleets in a complete redesign of classic Ratchet & Clank space combat gameplay.

 Rachet and Clank: Tools Of Destruction Review July 15, 2008
Cobra! (Glasgow, Scotland)
A Dissapointment To the R&C series, Seriously, It claimed that "The Levels Are So Big, Your Eyes Will Pop Out" But in Reality, They're Actually Smaller Then the Level in R&C1, and the Levels Are Incredibly Easy, The Reason I havn't Completed it it's because it got boring after 2 Levels, and It gets Repetitive, this is nothing Major but The Fact You Can't Go Giant Clank Is a Bit of a dissapointment as well considering, that you can in every other R&C Game, The Only Goos THing Is The Graphics and Cutscenes, Rachet Looks Pure Cool In Tje Game, But The Graphics Don't Matter It's the Gameplay and Fun Facter, and It Lack Alot Of It.
Graphics: 9/10
Gameplay: 4/10
Fun Factor: 3/10
Sound: 2/10
Replay Value: 2/10
Overall: 4/10
Closing Comment: Disspointment! Shouldn't Exist
 So Many Tools So Much Fun July 5, 2008

We've had this three weeks and been playing intermittantly during that time. Have had great fun especially upgrading his armour suit and the weapons. Have been engrossed with the variety and imagination popped into these. Obviously this is not a game for serious gamers that want totally realistic/exact detail/very hard games. This is fun with totally made up weapons/a pleasure to play/very good graphics and lots to do.
Last night played through the last boss level and didn't realise at the time this was the end - so I was a bit miffed when the credits started to roll. I waited patiently for this to finish to see what happened and was rewarded with the opportunity to complete the game again in a harder setting OR go back to before defeating the end boss. I chose to start again with all my upgraded weapons and armour. Now I can hopefully collect all the 'gold screws' I missed and other such like.
So here I am again on the very first level and the first thing that happens is when I enter the 'Upgrade Weapon' port, all my weapons can be upgraded to 'mega' weapons - even my armour can be upgraded again - okay I'm off now, back to the game to earn my first 3 million bolts for my first 'mega' upgrade!!!
 An "OK" Addition To The Series July 3, 2008
Young Stevie (London, England)
Bought this for a change and break from all the other games that dish out death & destruction. Wanted something that was fun to look at and play. And that's nearly what you get with this.
It doesn't make any huge leaps or bounds in terms of gameplay from the other Ratchet games although some of the puzzles are quite cool and tricky with the way you have to use the motion of the six-axis.
But overall it covers pretty much the same ground as the previous titles and serious gamers will probably not take too much time to complete it as it's probably aimed more at the junior gamers out there.
Colourful and pretty to look at, quick and easy to complete.
That's Ratchet & Clank:Tools Of Destruction in a nutshell.
BEST RATCHET AND CLANK GAME YET! June 25, 2008

Other than the graphics i think its the guns that give the game its edge in blowing things to bits....
10/10 for me!!
Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction (PS3) May 16, 2008
Mrs. J. S. Woodley (Kings Langley, UK)
Having greedily devoured all previous Ratchet and Clank games, i was nearly beside myself when this new title came out on PS3.
Awesome graphics (as we were expecting), but was it a compromise for the storyline? Where's the clever plot? The humour? The abundance of 'mini-challenges'? I ended the game feeling slightly disappointed - something i'd not experienced with the other games.
I understand it was made easy to entice folks previously not familiar with R&C games, but hopefully the next R&C game will include all the attributes that made the PS2 games so entertaining, but with PS3 effects.
P.S. Is Ratchet more aloof? I seemed to have less affinity with his character.
