My 11 yr old LOVES this game. She said this is the best game for the PSP that she's ever played. Highly recommended from this dad!

I have had this game for a very short time and have already beat it once and I am on my way through it a second time.
I said but bcs although this is a great game it could really be a bit longer and I didn't really find the bosses that hard to beat.
But as far as the fun factor goes man this is addictive like I said I am playing it again and the second time through your guns get better and your armour gets better.

In summary this game is a must have for your PSP collection,

Great addition to the series...

This was a fun game to play. This is a great addition to the series. If you are a fan of the other games, and own a PSP, there's no reason not to buy this one. My only complaint was that it was a pretty short game. Probably took somewhere around 8 hours or so to complete almost everything, including most of the bonus missions. But that doesn't ruin the game itself. The graphics almost match the PS2's on the game, which helps keep the feel of the PS2 versions. Definitely an addition to the PSP's small list of great games.

Ratchet and Clank makes a Bang

For anyone with a doubt of buying this game, don't doubt it it has all the juicy goodness in adventure, mini games of racing and galactic battling along with the hyped adventure with guns. Have fun!

Wrench it up, Ratchet down.

I must admit from the start, I have been a huge fan of Ratchet and Clank since their first adventure came out for the PS2. Wow, actually it was almost exactly five years ago, actually. Weird.
Anyway, from the viral-style adverts (before viral was even much of an option, natch) with wanton destruction to the actual gameplay itself, the R&C series has mostly been one improvement after another (with the exception of Deadlocked, which was fun but definitely not a big step up) and insanely entertaining in the bargain. So when I first started seeing adverts for the R&C PSP outing, Size Matters, my first thought was, "You lame bastards. Now i will eventually have to buy a PSP."
Typical.
First of all, I should admit that i have not yet completely beaten 'Size Matters', but i believe that i've seen enough of it to declare it an almost unqualified success.
Graphically, 'Size Matters' is absolutely stunning. I have not played a great deal of PSP games yet, so i don't have a huge basis for comparison, but this one is beautiful from the start. Particularly interesting is the 'dream' section which finds Ratchet suffering from some sort of anesthesia overdose, causing his (and thus your) perception to get very strange around the edges. Perhaps i'm simply OLD (my video game obsession started in the early 80's with an Atari 2600), but it's a bit difficult to believe the amount of power that seems to lurk in the PSP, processor-wise.
The sound in 'Size Matters' is surprisingly good, too. The music has the same feel as the rest of the series, the voice acting is at the same high level as usual, and the rest of the sounds are clean, well produced, and better than average.
Perhaps most importantly, though, is the story and general atmosphere of the game. Here, the developers took a page from the older games in the series, which was a great relief to me. Instead of the absurdly episodic approach taken by 'Deadlocked', this game allows you to wander around the surface of the planets a bit more freely, with less of the 'go here, do that' hand-holding which started to creep into the last two R&C PS2 outings.
The only reason that i didn't give this game five stars across the board is because of the limitations of the PSP itself, as a controller, and the fact that a few of the battles/sections seem to be, shall we say... filler.. you will find yourself being killed several times in order to gain more experience/life points before being able to move on.
Other than that, though, 'Size Matters' is a refreshing, long-awaited visit from a bunch of old friends.
And you can annoy people on the bus with it, which is a big, big plus.

Great, but not for PSP

I've been a big Ratchet and Clank fan, so it only made sense to buy Ratchet and Clank for PSP. The gameplay started out great. It was challenging. The graphics were beautiful. The camera angles were a little weird, but I got the hang of it after a few minutes. It still had that wonderful R&C PS2 charm about it. I even finished the first race!

But the second race with the Skyboard Racer is impossible with the PSP joystick and controls. They are just AWFUL for these races! I've even asked another gamer who is excellent at racing games on the PSP to try to finish it and even he can't. So, as much as I love Ratchet and Clank, I can only rate this game 3/5 because it's just not fun when you can't progress in the game.

Size Matters is the best game made for the PSP so far

I really like this game! You have tons of weapons to choose from, ranging from the cheap and puny hand gun (Lacerators), to the insanely expensive and incredibly dangerous homing missle launcher (Rynocerator) ! Replaying the game several times will be nessesary if you want to get all the Titanium Bolts, Armor sets, skill points and upgrade all your weapons. The graphics are really good. I hope they make another R&C game for the psp.

It could have been better

I played this after i played daxter. The area where this game could have improved is in its clarity. The colors look a little bland and not as vibrant as daxter. It takes a little getting used to with the jumps, especially the long jump that for some reason doesnt always work. In terms of value the game is pretty fun and will take a while to beat.
