1. Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction
It's fitting that the first installment of the Ratchet & Clank series on the PS3 is called Future, because in many ways it sets the bar for all future PS3 games. Starting with the opening cinematic to the very last moment, the game is a prime example of what developers can accomplish on the platform.
Tools of Destruction outstandingly delivers in the visuals department, doling out sweet eye candy like a friendly old lady at Halloween.
It would be easy to take the lush and vivid detail of the game for granted, but witnessing a giant building collapse as you rail-grind past it is truly a jaw-dropping experience. The best part is that the game's frame rate rarely dips or stutters, which means the intense action never misses a beat.
Of course, the true star of any Ratchet game is the many gadgets and weapons that you get to use, and considering this installment is subtitled 'Tools of Destruction', you should know Insomniac went all out. These toys are inventive and vicious as ever. Take the Groovitron--it shoots a giant disco ball into the air causing all nearby enemies to start dancing, a clever diversion that gives Ratchet ample time to give the grooving baddies the smackdown. Each enemy has its own style of dancing, and you just can't help but laugh each time it happens.
Insomniac is known for its creativity and talent, and here the studio delivers its finest game to date; a wonderful blend of comedy and action that plays out in near-Pixar quality. Casual gamers will enjoy the witty dialogue and imaginative characters even if they're not into addictive robot and alien destruction, Tools of Destruction is an amazing PS3 game that fully leverages the power of the console. It sets the bar high for not only the series but for all PS3 games to come. For many, it should be reason enough to buy the system.
