Insomniac is a studio that understands the value of building on past accomplishments, perhaps to a fault. Back on PS one, each of its Spyro games was simply a refinement of the previous one, which resulted in quick development times but sometimes samey end results. Insomniac returned to this tried-and-tested strategy for the PS2's Ratchet & Clank series, but this time the improvements proved to be more than incremental. Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando was an excellent sequel that made definite improvements over its somewhat drowsy predecessor, and now, likewise, Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal makes marked improvements over that second game. Combining a solid single-player adventure and all-new online competition modes, Up Your Arsenal is clearly Insomniac's most impressive outing yet. Read More »
Not too long ago, we took a look at Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal's new online mode. Since then, we've gotten a chance to check out the game's single-player mode. In case you were thinking that Insomniac was neglecting the main game to focus on the multiplayer aspect, you needn't worry. This adventure seems to be on par with the duo's previous titles.

Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando was hardly a failure. In fact, it was a smash hit. It garnered widespread critical praise and no less than seven "game of the year" awards. But Insomniac isn't satisfied with that. It has a lot of ideas that didn't, and couldn't, get aired in Going Commando, from online play to unique new bonus stages. And so we can see the need for a third game, capping off a trilogy and perhaps finally satisfying the self-critical bastards at Insomniac. They might well be succeeding, at least according to developer Brian Hastings. Up Your Arsenal, he says, is "absolutely the best game Insomniac has ever made." Read More »
