MetalGanado reviews Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal (PS2)

Talk about reaching a height! Up Your Arsenal is easily the greatest of the series and considering how awesome the first two games were, that's really something. This game expands upon the style of Going Commando, and makes subtle improvements on the overall quality. There's also a multiplayer mode in this one that is cool, but suited for online, which I've never given a damn about. You could still have fun with it anyhow though. One thing truly sets this apart from the previous games however and that is the villain, the maniacal Dr. Nefarious! With the weak villains from the previous games, I was not prepared at all for such a fantastically quirky villain.This guy is easily one of my top favorite characters and thanks to his presence, you'll probably find this to be the funniest of the series by a large margin. Overall, the perfect Ratchet and Clank game and one of the best ever. I'd put between 21-30 on my favorite games of all time. (owned and completed. Accurate score is 9.25)
