Gameplay
For my second session of Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction i am as happy as I was the first time. The story is getting more diverse and the maps and enemies are getting even more fun to play. The weapons are even more diverse than its predecessors. The wacky humor is still going strong and the whole feeling is that of a great game. I really liked using the whip weapon. Although I wished that it would have always been deployed so that while walking around you had a flowing whip in your hand.
That aside the gameplay is great. There are big rooms with many enemies at once, and they are all very diverse. Some enemies are easier to kill with electricity while others are better with fire, while others are better to just use your big ol wrench to whack them away. The game is fun, and takes some thinking at the same time.
Design:
The level design on this game is phenomenal. The background is always moving, the surroundings are super detailed and the layout of everything is great. In the game you feel like you are very free to do what you want, while you are actually confined. The way that there is a building here or a huge boulder there is very subtle yet defines the way the game plays out.
As far as gameplay design goes, it is a lot like its Playstation 2 brethren but I liked the super smooth and accurate camera of this one much better. The implementation of the Six-Axis controller while Ratchet is free falling is very cool. It is nice to see a game actually use the controls in a challenge oriented situation, instead of the Wii's very annoying, "shake to run, move up and down to swim" and so on controls. There is not much in the way of innovation but the game is great the way it is. I really enjoyed playing this game and am very glad to call myself a Ratchet and Clank fan.

Summary:
I am writing this gamelog on Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction which is an amazing adventure game for the Playstation 3. The game is the latest installment in the series. The two main characters in the game are Ratchet and Clank! Who would have guessed? Ratchet is a lombax, the last known one alive. He is accompanied by his best friend and co-start Clank, who is a small robot. Clank rides on the back of Ratchet and is a very key part to the game. By guiding Ratchet and clank through a bunch of amazingly detailed levels you are on a mission to solve the puzzle of the Lombax, and get rid of a pesky little bad dude.
Gameplay:
Right from the start the game play is excellent. The movement is really straightforward and simple. The graphics are amazing. The game really utilizes the Playstation 3's power. The background which has nothing to do with gameplay is always very active and moving. The colors are beautiful and the detail is very precise. You get right into the action. Within minutes of starting the game you are already let loose to go blast some enemies. The game really grabs your attention and sucks you in. The story is very dynamic and emerges more and more as the game progresses. One thing that is a key factor in the game is the amount of weapons that you can use, and the way that you can upgrade all of them immensely. I found myself very entertained and happy to be playing the game.
Another thing that is really nice is the way the game sets a cheerful and humorous mood. The bright colors and constant jokes are hilarious. When wandering around a level look around, or listen closely. The things that people say are super funny.
