New Ratchet and Clank Video Shows Space Exploration
PS3 News | Aug 28, 2009 A new video popped up on the PlayStation Blog today that highlights space exploration in Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack in Time. In the video, Insomniac's creative director Brian Allgeier explains how space-faring will not only provide side-missions and additional enemies to fight, but will also lead to upgrades for your ship and your arsenal.
While exploring, you're also able to land on small, spherical moons that act like mini platforming challenge stages (ala Mario Galaxy's mini planets). Other notable add-ons in this mode are pirate radio stations (similar to Captain Slag and Rusty Pete's previous disc jockeying), and a final "uber-boss" that aims to challenge long-time fans. A Crack in Time is scheduled for release this fall on the PlayStation 3.
