“We consider Ratchet & Clank: Tools of Destruction to be the first second-generation PlayStation 3 title,” says Ryan with no small amount of pride. “We think that we’ve finally managed to create a world as detailed as something you might read in a book or see in a movie. If Resistance was our Br♉uckheimer movie, this is our Pixar🥀 flick.”

But the raw grunt of PS3 is doing far more than just filling the screen with pretty colors and background fudge. As soon as the💧 weapons come out, you can immediately see how Insomniac has managed to use the power to create weaponry that just wouldn’t have been possible previously. Take the Groovitron, for example -𒁃 one blast sends a silver disco ball into the air, causing all nearby baddies to down tools and get funky with their bad selves.
