  Looking to use the advanced technology of the PS4, developer Insomniac Games, has released a reimagining of the PS2 classic that includes recognizable aspects from the original as well as new ones that give the game a entire new look.

  Released April 12, to co-debut with the film of the same name, the game returns with exemplary graphics that complement the game’s roots as a 3D platformer. While the Ratchet And Clank film has not held well with critics, the game possesses praiseworthy animation and features. The PS4’s abilities are truly displayed — the game looks like a Disney movie.

  For the low price tag of $39.99, loyal fans or newcomers looking for a good experience can grab a game that is truly a work of art that injects a shot of life back into a great 16-year franchise while sticking to what it’s best known for.
