In the meantime, this one is definitely worth a look.The fact that Nexus 7 is the hottest Android Tablet is beyond dispute. I have a hunch that Insomniac may be saving bigger leaps for the inevitable PlayStation 4 entry, but obviously, we’ll have to wait and see on that front. Even though there is a lack of innovation, it’s still another solid entry in one of my favorite series. I had a lot of fun with it despite the relative brevity. Still, at half the price, it’s hard for me to argue that Ratchet & Clank: Into The Nexus isn’t worth picking up for longtime fans. It doesn’t feel like a lazy rehash, but after so long since the release of A Crack in Time, the last full-fledged traditional entry in the franchise, I was hoping for more of a step forward. This seems like a shame, because while I’m happy that the franchise has returned to the style of gameplay that fans want the most, it also means that you won’t see a lot that you can truly call new. These are all neat functions, but after the second level they are almost entirely abandoned until the very last area and boss fight, in favor of more standard gameplay - such as the now-trademark arena battles. I’d argue that in certain areas, this may be the best-looking Ratchet & Clank game of them all. Indeed, the levels generally look intricate and gorgeous. This allows for more open level layouts than you’ve seen in the past, which is another welcome change. Holding the L2 trigger will let you ascend in these areas, and you can fly, aim, and shoot freely in the process. One of the major new accessories is a jetpack, but don’t get too excited, as it runs on fuel and only select locations have refilling stations for you to use. It’s a clever feature that adds a good element of customization to what has become a series trademark.

Similar to such systems as Final Fantasy X‘s iconic Sphere Grid, you’ll open up tiles on a grid for each weapon one at a time with individual crystals, enabling capabilities like more destructive power, more max ammo storage or faster shooting times. This appropriately rare elemental crystal can be found in certain areas as you progress and can be used in a separate menu that is accessible at each vendor. An interesting new side feature of weapon upgrading is the Raritanium system.
