Ratchet: Gladiator - PS2 Game

Play Station 2 game Ratchet: Gladiator.

Insomniac Games brings back one of its most beloved characters, Ratchet, in Ratchet: Gladiator for the PS2. Although more of the focus is on combat instead of the traditional platform action, Gladiator still plays similar to the previous Ratchet and Clank games.

Ratchet: Gladiator begins shortly after the end of Ratchet and Clank: Up your Arsenal. The three heroes, Ratchet, Clank, and mechanic Al, have just finished their latest mission when they are captured by galactic villain Gleeman Vox. Vox plans to use the heroes as part of his reality TV arena show, Dreadzone, where heroes are forced to fight each other to the end. The major difference in Ratchet: Gladiator is that Clank is no longer on Ratchet's back. Instead, he will occasionally supply Ratchet with a necessary gadget. This takes out many of the platformer elements of the series, leaving Ratchet to mostly battle his way through the eleven different Dreadzone levels with the help of two combat bots. Gamers can find a number of different weapons and gadgets throughout the game, including the incredibly destructive Harbinger gun. The more Ratchet uses a particular weapon, the more powerful it will become. Several different vehicles are also available. In addition to the main storyline, players can also compete in a number of Dread challenges on each level, complete side tasks, collect skill points, and battle each other in a number of different multiplayer modes. Ratchet: Gladiator has many extras to keep players battling against the evil Vox for hours.
