Ratchet & Clank: Full Frontal Assault Coming to PSN This Fall

Playstation Blog writes; The good people of Insomniac Games are preparing to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Ratchet & Clank, which is coming up later this year.
But we’ve also heard a lot of community requests to develop a new Ratchet & Clank game, one that returns to the classic third-person Ratchet & Clank camera. We listened to your requests, and this holiday season Insomniac will release our new Ratchet & Clank game as part of our 10th Anniversary Celebration.

Great news but I"m kinda disappointed because this is another side game. I wanted a true sequel to the series.

SoundGamer4347d ago (Edited 4347d ago )

More Ratchet and Clank is always good in my book. I love the series, I even liked All 4 One (although it admittedly wasn't the best in the franchise).

Side Note:

Full Frontal Assault will be released as a PSN download in North America but Europe will have a retail release of the game.

In Europe, the game will be called: Ratchet & Clank: QForce.

Dammit. Why do we always get the unfunny names? I think we only got away with 'Quest for Booty'.

GribbleGrunger4347d ago

i reckon this will come to the Vita too.

Cajun Chicken4347d ago

...Every time I think I own all the games in the series!

Commodore4347d ago (Edited 4347d ago )

Love how this game gets a glorious 10th year anniversary, while SOCOM pretty much gets taken out back and put down.

SOCOM> R&C any day. SOCOM was the PS2's online/ main franchise.

Disagree all you want...but you didn't see Tiger Woods, Kevin Garnet, Wu Tang Clan, and a bunch of other celebs playing Ratchet....they were playing SOCOM 2 baby. Sony needs to get its priorities straight.

dafegamer4347d ago

I'd prefer R&C Series any time bro

Captain Qwark 94347d ago

same here, theres 100 different military shooter series.....theres only one ratchet and clank series, nothing on the market like it.

nevin14347d ago

"but you didn't see Tiger Woods, Kevin Garnet, Wu Tang Clan, and a bunch of other celebs playing Ratchet....they were playing SOCOM 2 baby. Sony needs to get its priorities straight."

What?

Commodore4347d ago

My point exactly....no one knew each other in the online Ratchet games. The SOCOM community knew everyone and took pride in who played it.

DNAbro4347d ago

@commodore

he is saying what the hell do those guys have to do with Socom

Commodore4347d ago

They all played it...sorry if I wasn't clear haha

MaxXAttaxX4347d ago

They're two different games. Don't blame Sony for Zipper screwing up SOCOM.

ThePsychoGamer4347d ago (Edited 4347d ago )

So your complaining that Insomniac is celebrating the 10th anniversary of a successful IP (that isn't owned by Sony I might add) because Sony won't do the same thing for a IP they own.

Makes sense to me /s

ok but what's left for E3 ?

leahcim4347d ago

I really love the series, I think Naughty Dog must do the same with Jak and Daxter (releasing new games for the saga)

Man... what i wouldnt give to have a full PS5 UHD of all the R&C games in one collection. i guess streaming them on PS+ is the next best thing (or naturally a PS3)

Aloymetal537d ago

Rift was a joy to play, absolutely beautiful.

FallenAngel1984537d ago

They couldn’t make PS2 versions of those R&C games like they did with the J&D games?

mkis007537d ago

considering they are ps3 games that never had ps2 versions....no.

CobraKai536d ago

Yeah? You might wanna double check that.

mkis007536d ago

Kobra
What fan that waited for launch day needs to know? There were 4 ps2 games the rest starting with tools was ps3 only. Quest for booty, a crack in time, nexus, full frontal assault were ps3 games.

FallenAngel1984537d ago

You really saying Ratchet & Clank, Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando, Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal and Ratchet: Deadlocked weren’t on PS2? 🤨

theandinator92537d ago

Even Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters and Secret Agent Clank had PS2 versions...

mkis007536d ago

Of course I wasn't talking about the actual ps2 games...why would they need to make ps2 versions of ps2 games? That is why I only included the ps3 games in my comment.

FallenAngel1984536d ago

@ no

You must’ve misunderstood what I asked for.

I’m saying they should’ve made PS2 Classic versions of these Ratchet & Clank titles on PS4 so they’d be downloadable just like Jak & Daxter had rather than just streaming the PS3 versions

mkis007536d ago

Ya I realized you meant emulated versions after the fact.

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is amazing. I really hope Insomniac are working on more. I'm always up for another Ratchet & Clank game.

CobraKai536d ago

I think it’s still the only “Next Gen” game that truly looks next gen.

Levii_92537d ago

Sick ! R&C is still one of my favourite franchises.

Ranking the Ratchet and Clank Games from Worst to Best

From Xfire: "Insomniac Games first introduced the unlikely duo of Ratchet and Clank back in 2002 on the PlayStation 2. Since then, the series has taken audiences on a journey that has spanned not just an entire galaxy, but multiple dimensions, with its most recent outings."

Levii_921040d ago

Best games of the franchise are Up Your Arsenal, A Crack in Time, 2016 Remake and without a doubt the newest one Rift Apart. You simply can’t go wrong with these.

Man what a glorious game series.

neutralgamer19921040d ago

Only ones I don't like as much are all 4 one and full frontal assault other than that all games are awesome( even these are good games just not up to the standard of other games in the series)

victorMaje1040d ago

Nice article, good list, they're all fun & I love this game!
Rift Apart is spectacular.
Insomniac are wizards, I want their next game to be a new Resistance. I can't wait to see what they have in store for us next.

DOMination-1039d ago

Ryan Mccaffrey said last week that Resistance 4 was in development but Sony cancelled it due to the high number of post-apocalyptic games around at the moment.

victorMaje1039d ago

Well that’s a shame. I feel they could do something truly special with today’s technology.

chicken_in_the_corn1040d ago

I'm looking forward to playing Rift Apart then the whole series sometime afterward. Up Your Arsenal is my favourite
