''Ratchet and Clank are a couple of the many mascot characters who have shown up in the PlayStation 2 era. When Sony lost Crash Bandicoot as their mascot after their deal expired with Vivendi, they compensated - and then some - with three distinct "mascot platformers" in a row. Sly Cooper's mix of stealth elements as a master cat burglar, Jak and Daxter's silly exploration style (which veered off into gunplay action with Jak II), and, of course, Ratchet & Clank. The Lombax and his little robotic sidekick have definitely had their adventures, what with stopping an increasingly hilarious array of villains from completing various galaxy-threatening evil schemes. The cast of characters has built up over several games and built up an excellent reputation among PlayStation fans as one of the consistently best series on the PS2 - a reputation Insomniac Games happily carried along to the PlayStation 3 with Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction.
Sony, however, could not leave well enough alone. Daxter had been a great hit for the PSP, so why not try Ratchet & Clank on that console? Indeed, Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters proved to be an excellent PSP offering, in spite of a few hiccups. Unfortunately, it then suffered the indignity experienced by Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, another major PSP hit, by getting ported to the PlayStation 2. Suddenly, every minor problem with the PSP iteration was blown up on your television screen, turning an excellent game into an utter train wreck.''

"In the past couple of decades video game graphics have evolved in incredible ways. Today, we will be checking out Ratchet & Clank which started in 2002. Enjoy the evolution of graphics!"
PSLS: "With over 10 entries in the series, it can be hard to decide which is the best Ratchet and Clank game. We’re up for the task, though, and it made sense to rank the series from best to worst with the upcoming PS4 [reboot] out tomorrow"
I agree with the first place, it's also my favorite, but i really love all the main games of the series.
VGChartz's William D'Angello: "Today we take a look at the top 10 best-selling games for yet another platform. Up to this point we have looked at the original PlayStation, the Nintendo 64, the PlayStation 2, the original Xbox, the GameCube, and the Nintendo DS. This week we are taking a look at Sony's first handheld, the PSP.
The PSP is the ninth best-selling video game platform in history and the fourth best-selling handheld in gaming history. It is also the best-selling handheld not released by Nintendo. It sold 80.82 million units in its lifetime."
Stupid Naughty Dog abandoning Jak & Daxter. I get wanting to do something else but its been 11 years since 3 came out.
