Its mix of platforming and oddball weapons still plays well on a PS2.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"rgm-condition-note\"\u003eImages are representative product references, not photographs of the exact pre-owned copy.

The pair travel across the Solana galaxy to stop him, visiting worlds like Novalis, Kerwan, Rilgar and Orxon. Along the way they run into Captain Qwark, a TV hero who turns out to be far less helpful than advertised. Clank rides on Ratchet's back as a Heli-Pack or Thruster-Pack and gets short levels of his own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c!-- rgm:story --\u003e\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-story\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBolts, gadgets and the RYNO\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDefeated enemies and smashed crates drop bolts, the currency you spend at Gadgetron vendors on weapons like the Bomb Glove, Blaster, Suck Cannon, Pyrocitor and Devastator. Gadgets open new paths: the Swingshot latches onto targets, the Grindboots ride rails and the Magneboots walk up magnetic surfaces. Forty gold bolts are hidden in tricky corners of the galaxy, and the priciest weapon, the RYNO, becomes a goal in itself. The Blackwater City hoverboard races on Rilgar break up the shootouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c!-- rgm:story --\u003e\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-story\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePicking a used Ratchet \u0026amp; Clank disc\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRatchet \u0026amp; Clank was sold with the original black label and later as a Greatest Hits release, and both hold the same game.
