One of the best character-action-platform games ever made - right alongside "Mario 64." [Feb 2005, p.9]
Luscious looking levels that are bigger than ever, a wonderful range of new and old weapons, a multitude of gameplay styles, vehicles, freefalling, 2D retro action and a fully online multiplayer mode where you get to use those wonderful weapons against friends and strangers alike.

Up Your Arsenal, while not radically different than its predecessors with the exception of the new online play, still provides some of the purest, most enjoyable gameplay available on the PlayStation 2.
Weapons and flashgun-centric play make this the series' best. [Jan 2007, p.106]
The environments are incredibly detailed and show a lot of innovation and imagination. It's not a stretch to believe that this world exists as characters go about their daily business and vehicles fly around in background. The AI is also more realistic and more challenging.
An enjoyable experience worthy of the Ratchet name...even if we're hoping the next iteration of the series pushes the envelope instead of merely experimenting.
It might be derivative in many ways, but there's a certain charm to the low-rent Futurama antics of the Ratchet & Clank universe: it knows its audience and panders to it without shame, scooping up a disparate medley of platforming/shooting tasks and weaving them all into a quietly epic narrative framework. [Christmas 2004, p.106]

This game was groundbreaking when it came out.
The shooting mechanics are very fun, many guns you can experiment with, and a good amount of action.
The characters and the story are alright, but there are some actual funny moments and charming dialogue.
As for the level design, it's creative and most areas look cool. You can visit and explore planets that are vastly different from each other, and you can participate in events, try out some game-modes or spend your time customizing your own ship.
There are few mini games that can be frustrating but nothing to ruin your experience.
And lastly, the multiplayer is nothing special but it's still enjoyable, you can even play split screen co-op with your friends and just goof around.
This is my favorite Ratchet & Clank game, it didn't age very well in some ways but it's a solid game nonetheless.
Final Rating: "Good" ~ 7/10.

Even more shooting and less platforming here, second game already went in that direction but here it gets just too much on a shooting side for my liking. Still a fun game with some neat ideas like your own big ship, 2d platofmer elements with Quark or even more complex gun progression system. But you are going to shoot an awful lot.

Another completely ok RATCHET & CLANK game, Which is weird because I remember this being the best in the series but my childhood memories Has once again failed me , What what is it that makes it still ok I would say to their environment are kind of uninspiring if you compare it to the first game then it looks Bland
