Jak vs. Ratchet, who would win?

Addict of Fiction wants your vote on a versus match!

"Once “PlayStation Move Heroes” came out, it sparked this thought I have been thinking about for a long time. When it comes to Ratchet and Jak’s game, I always thought it would be very interesting for the two of them to work together. Not only that, but I always picture these two in battle together.

When it comes to a fight, it’s kind of hard to decide which one will truly win."

Despite the fact I've always preferred the Jak series over Ratchet, I feel Ratchet could definitely defeat Jak with his huge arsenal of weapons. But then again, if Jak was in his dark mode, he could easily rip Ratchet up into little tiny pieces. Jak himself had quite an impressive number of weapons in Jak 3. I can remember that one gun that would destroy every enemy in the area (can't remember it's name though).
I think both characters are in a way evenly matched.

Sharingan_no_Kakashi4567d ago

You're talking about the peacemaker. And Jak would destroy ratchet no contest.

BiggCMan4567d ago

I think it's a stupid question. The badass thing to do would be to pair them up, and destroy together!

ReservoirDog3164567d ago

Peacemaker I believe.

I do miss Jak and Daxter.

Though I'd rather a new ip than ND go back to Jak. Not to say I wouldn't buy it day 1 but I feel the story (that was pretty intricate) was finished in Jak 3.

And I'd say...Ratchet would win on sheer firepower alone.

beavis4play4567d ago

so, they'd start a new trilogy - i'd DEFINITELY preorder a new J&D game as soon as i could!

princejb1344567d ago

the guy with the bigger gun wins and ratchet definitely have a lot of them
that tornado gun will own jak
and this is coming form a guy that prefers jak over ratchet

WhiteLightning4567d ago

Jak....always felt he was better and had a better game franchise then Ractchet.

Plus Jak has a load of weapons like Ratchet but he also has Dark Jak and even Light Jak so I think Jak would easily win.

SockMaster4567d ago

Im gonna say Rachet, R.H.Y.N.O would kill Jak before he even got close :)

frostyhat1234567d ago

I'm going to say Ratchet beats Jak and then Captin Qwark comes in and takes all the credit!

Ratchet & Clank Are The Only Surviving (& Thriving) PS2 Mascots

The PS2 birthed various notable PlayStation mascots, but Ratchet and Clank appear to be the only ones that made it on every later console generation.

We needed remakes of Jak and Daxter more than pumping out an unnecessary "remake" of Last of Us.

Then again, we're hilariously now getting a "remake" of Horizon Zero Dawn, so Sony is already outdoing themselves.

neutralgamer1992506d ago

😂 man really HZD just came out

MadLad506d ago

People on here go at me because I always take jabs at Sony, but it's because I want to see them do better.
Do they make great games? Of course. As of this gen does their ecosystem suck? I'd say definitely yes.

They're becoming more anti consumer by the day.

neutralgamer1992506d ago

Mad

It's not PlayStation bro it's Jimbo and his cronies thinking the success of because of them and not guys like Shawn layden, Andrew house etc

MadLad505d ago

I get that. Jim needs to go. At the same time, we're still the consumer, and Sony is still the people doing the hiring and writing the checks. They need to stop turning a blind eye to how Playstation is being handled right now and get things back on track.

This isn't last generation. Xbox is real competition again. You're seeing a lot of people getting tired of what they're doing with the brand the last couple of years.

God of War? Hello? Is Kratos not a PS2 mascot? Hard to think that he's not.

SonyStyled506d ago

Beat me to it. When I read the headline I was like “huh?”

Lifexline506d ago

I don’t think so for some reason the title mascot is always given to “platformers” characters like Mario in particular when it comes to games.

Miscrosoft tried d to make master chief it’s mascot but it never really stuck because those characters appeal to a small percentage of gamers.

Vengeance1138506d ago (Edited 506d ago )

God of War on PS2 does have platforming elements in it, if Jak & Daxter and Ratchet can be considered platformers with the inclusion of minor platforming elements in them then so can God of War.

What a mascot is though is simply a game series based around a "named character". Solid Snake is a mascot, Gabe Logan from Syphon Filter is a mascot, Lara Croft is a mascot etc... we really don't get many franchises based around a single named protagonist anymore.
Master Chief is 100% Microsoft's mascot and yes he does appeal to a very wide range of gamers. He's a space marine much akin to the Terran in Starcraft, whats not to love.

darthv72506d ago

blinx was the xb mascot, not master chief. but they gave up on blinx after the 2nd game which is sad as there was lots of potential there. They should bring him back.

abstractel506d ago (Edited 506d ago )

So the definition of a mascot is that they have to be cartoony and platform characters? Makes little sense to me.

Mascot, Icon, whatever word you want to use, Kratos is definitely part of that Playstation definition. And yeah, Master Chief is one for Xbox for whatever it's worth.

Levii_92506d ago

Nahh we don’t need these kind’s of games we need more walking slimulators like Naughty Dog games and remakes of games that aren’t even 10 years old because they make money right Sony. The fact that R&C is still around AND still good is a goddamn miracle that i’m very grateful for.

Z501506d ago

"We need more walking Simulators"

Like Hellblade 2?

solideagle506d ago

lol it's funny how your only game is about Sony games because Microsoft has no games to compare to :p

Smellsforfree506d ago

Which is absolutely fine since he wasn't comparing Sony to MS in his comment to begin with.

shinoff2183506d ago (Edited 506d ago )

Its obvious your just hating levii92. You can call last of us whatever the f you want Ill call it one of the best games Ive played. Also if you cant see the huge drastic difference in graphics between a ps3 and subsequent remaster to ps4 which didnt change the looks to much to a remake for ps5 where the graphics are phenomenal then thats on you lil guy. And its far from a walking simulator Id guess you never even played it.

Truth is the last of us is fantastic and if you dont wanna pay that much for it wait, if you even play ps which I doubt. It was just 50 bucks everywhere. Im still waiting until its 30 or so cause I dont like to spend over 30 40 bucks on any games these days.

On the bright side atleast you can stand in the corner or something cause I know the other system doesnt have alot going on these days.

TheEnigma313506d ago

Bitter because your console can't produce games lol.

SonyStyled506d ago

Levii, does it bother you that the remake came out 9.25 years after the original? Would your balls not be squeezed as hard if it was delayed 9 months?

Rocosaurus506d ago

You are not wrong. The probably two biggest ps5 exclusives next year are the second chapter of FF7 (remake) and Knights of the old Republic (remake).

z2g506d ago

the last R+C (rift apart) was definitely way better than I wanted to give it credit for before playing. still one of the best, most impressive ps5 games imo.

badz149505d ago

the game is so good, the only flaw I want to highlight is the fact that it's a little bit short for my liking. I want more of it damn it!

Despite No New Games, Naughty Dog's Jak and Daxter Franchise Lives On

Even though it's been 13 years since the last brand-new Jak and Daxter game, several factors have allowed Naughty Dog's franchise to survive.

I know naughty dog has no interest in this, but man I love to see this series return, or at the very least get blue point onto remaking the original 3 games please!!!

mastershredder526d ago

A different and more fun Naughty dog made that game.
