It undoes some of the damage of the last few games, but taking the series back to its roots is an admission that Ratchet & Clank has done nothing but go in circles all generation.

It's not the longest or best game in the series, but it's a budget title and full of fan service, though that may turn non-fans away and it's hardly the best entry point into this universe.

Whether it's a legitimately awesome game, or simply one that looks like it because it's miles better than the execrable Full Frontal Assault: if you're a fan of the Ratchet And Clank series you owe it to yourself to check it out.
