Modernizing "Ratchet & Clank" meant making it easier, the game's creators said.
Jim Ward, the voice of Ratchet & Clank's Captain Qwark, has died aged 66.
Such a great, recognisable voice, from Captain Qwark to Doug Dimmadome Owner of the Dimmsdale Dimmadome, rest in peace Mr.Ward
Been replaying the R&Cs lately & the Qwark moments are guaranteed smiling ones.
A dark day. Rest in peace captain.
Shaz from Pixel Swish: “Both Insomniac Games and Ubisoft have given us games with dual protagonists. However, where Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart’s duo feel exactly the same, Assassin’s Creed Shadow’s Yasuke and Naoe feel unique.”
They are exactly the same because it's another version of Ratchet within the multiverse. It's not Ratchet himself or a female version of him but it's someone else who's taken his place / role within that Universe.
Agreed! A better comparison take would have been between AC Syndicate and AC Shadows.
with ratchet, they are the same, they play the exact same.
im not even sure why this needs to be said, we all know.
They weren't trying to make them play differently, literally 2 versions of the same person. Wo ur saying they failed at something they never set out to do 🤨
What in the f who even thought of that concept and connect these two games that released years apart and have nothing to do with each other.
You could of said fuel protagonist vs other times where AC did duel protagonist or a game like GTA v that allows for on the fly switching
Like how desperate are they for clicks
Rivet's character was more useless and forced than Abby from TLOU2.
MULTIVERSESSSSSSS!!! Remember that trend people lol? Also remeber how a beloved vilain Dr Neferious was reduced to a braindead wimp and a parody of himself?
“MULTIVERSESSSSSSS!!! Remember that trend people lol?”
It’s still going on. Especially @ Marvel.
DigitalFoundry : Running on AMD's new Radeon 9070-series GPUs at CES 2025, a machine learning upscaling demo of Sony's Ratchet and Clank is almost certainly FSR 4 AI upscaling - and as it's running on Ratchet and Clank - our 'go to game' for AI upscaling quality tests, we could really put the tech through its paces. Oliver and Alex are at the show - and this is their report.
They're saying better than PSSR! Impressive.. guess it's really close to Nvidia's solution. I'm interested in seeing how the 9070XT or whatever their highest end card will perform, we already know AMD are only aiming for the mid range (or upper mid range) with these new cards but it will still be interesting to see how they compare to a 5070Ti on price/performance.
But certain apps don't play well with AMD that do with Nvidia cards, shame because these cards could be great/price performance.. but not an issue for pure gamers.
Visually it may well be similar to DLSS, but they were quick to point out that they do not have any actual performance data at this point. Time will tell, but it is definitely promising and good to see them impressing.
Interesting. Since AMD is largely behind PSSR, they’ve now sort of have two different upscalers in play. Curious to see how it all pans out.
Good of them to give people choices. If you skip through puzzles you're cheating yourself of part of the experience though.
We have sort of shed this conventional wisdom that games kind of need to be a hardass in order for you to get satisfaction out of it," "Rift Apart" game director Mike Daly told Axios, of his team's new approach to game challenge.
The bottom line: Daly says his team's work on making the new game more accessible transformed their mindset about making the game more approachable.
"We no longer think about, like, 'What will make the most elite players feel good about themselves?' And more like, 'What will enable everybody to have the experience they want to have?' Because that's sort of the most important thing to us."
Those time and virus puzzles started to wear thin, I skipped the last one. Glad they added that feature.
"We no longer think about, like, 'What will make the most elite players feel good about themselves?"
this line made me laugh cause its soo true haha.
Soooooooooo, do this mean Clank parts can be skipped now
