Ratchet & Clank Future: Quest for Booty - PS3 Network

The original Ratchet & Clank: Tools of Destruction was a divisive game here: some loved it; some didn’t see the fuss in what was essentially a hi-def PS2 platformer. So, how does this downloadable follow-up, Quest for Booty, compare, given the game’s glossy visuals have been watered down to fit on the PSN Store? Let’s start at the beginning: this game doesn’t look as good as Tools of Destruction, it doesn’t add anything particularly new and it doesn’t star Clank… only Ratchet makes a return, washed up on the beach of a seaside village, worse for wear and minus his diminutive tin-can sidekick.

Your first goal is to help the townsfolk in and around the island you’ve washed up on, all the while moving one step closer to finding your minuscule mate (nobody bothered to tell Ratchet he was actually off starring in his own solo PSP adventure Secret Agent Clank). The bizarre and usual cast of comical aliens that made past Ratchet adventures such a blast to play through are all present and accounted for in some form or another, but Booty angles itself for a new kind of funny-bone kick with the introduction of zany space pirates like Captain Slag and his first mate Rusty Pete, whom you end up forming an alliance with at one point in the story. Essentially it’s more of the same with the addition of some new mechanics to mix things up a little on the puzzle front and keep the game feeling fresh in the eyes of series returners. Which it does, admirably.



What’s really surprising about Quest for Booty is just how good it looks for a downloadable title. Granted, it’s not as pretty as Tools of Destruction (the PS3 original was a glossy beast) but still, for something primarily primed for the PSN pipe, it’s impressive. So what exactly is the difference between this and Tools of Destruction? For one, it’s smaller with you wading through the game in around three to four hours. But then, that’s why you’re paying a budget price and not the full whack. As with all subsequent Ratchet follow-ups, there is a wedge of new features for you to get to grips with; Quest for Booty’s angle is you’re now able to push and pull objects with an electric tether.

With Ratchet’s newfound ability, you’re able to solve puzzles by moving platforms and objects at will to achieve objectives like rebooting wind turbines on the island of Hoolefar. Ratchet can also now pick up objects with his wrench, which is where the element of light and darkness comes into play. Sometimes you’ll have to cross dark caverns and areas loaded with nasty fanged flying critters who attack in the shadows, using makeshift lanterns from glow-in-the-dark toad creatures to keep the hungry swooping buggers at bay.

Once you arrive on the island you’re stripped of all your tools of destruction. Ratchet does have other weapons at his disposal, but these have to be collected as you progress with the emphasis placed firmly on utilizing your wrench electromagnetism. That’s not to say other elements from previous entries have been sacrificed. Ratchet still winds up dabbling in his fair share of rail grinding, platforming and swinging on his way to his ultimate goal. So the game still feels familiar while adding in a few new tweaks.

Long time Ratchet fans will already have made their minds up. They’re picking this one up, and rightly so – it’s a solid and fun addition to the series canon with kudos to Insomniac for cooking up new and inventive ways to keep the series interesting time after time. Anyone else sifting through the PlayStation Store in search of a Saturday afternoon game-fix is in for a slick platforming play-through. Stripping Ratchet of his glossy visuals (good as it is for a PSN game) leaves the gameplay bare for all to see and though there are some nice ideas, they are generally ones you’ve seen before.



Insomniac has also missed a trick by not including Trophies in the game. We’re crying out for devs to start implementing the system and a platformer of Ratchet’s calibre would have been a perfect fit. If you’re after a solid platformer to play through as your Friday night alcohol buzz slowly wears off, Quest For Booty would be a good choice.

Asif Ali Zardari (Mr. 10%)



Mr. 10%
become
Mr. 100%
Mr Asif Ali Zaradari is now "as free as a bird" to venture new horrizons after his acquittal from all the corruption cases.

Our beloved Mr. 10% is going to be our next Prime Minister, wow!. There goes the dream of a better Pakistan.

After a 90-day appointment of an interim Prime Minister, Mr. Zardari will hold his position as the new Prime Minister of Pakistan. He did not contest in the elections, but is expected to contest in the by-elections in the next few months.







"Zardari is running party and I am running Govt." said by Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani. Projected in pic.(right) this interesting fact.
Our young Prime minister is like our Ex-Prime Minister. We can say that we have another 'remote Control' Prime Minister which is controled by Zardari.

Asif Ali Zardari (Mr. 10%) gets backing to become Pakistan's next president

BENAZIR Bhutto's controversial widower, Asif Ali Zardari, long derided as the "Mr 10 Per Cent" of Pakistani politics, is set to become the nuclear-armed Islamic nation's next president after winning solid backing from MPs yesterday.

Mr Zardari's 19-year-old son, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, is expected to preside over a meeting in Islamabad later today of the dominant Pakistan People's Party central executive committee at which the decision by the party's members of the National Assembly will be formally endorsed.

The Oxford undergraduate, chairman of the party of which his father is the co-chairman and effective leader, arrived in the capital earlier this week amid speculation that he was summoned home to formally announce his father's candidacy to succeed ousted president Pervez Musharraf in the country's top job.

Mr Musharraf resigned on Monday to avoid impeachment proceedings by the coalition government, dominated by Mr Zardari's PPP and former Pakistan prime minister Nawaz Sharif's Pakistan Muslim League (N).

Some PPP leaders have expressed reservations about nominating Mr Zardari, still viewed with deep suspicion by many of Pakistan's 160 million people. Others, too, believe Mr Zardari, who is neither an MP nor a member of the Government, is better suited to his present role of running the party and dominating the cabinet through a surrogate prime minister.

Mr Zardari has long maintained that he wants to be the "Sonia Gandhi" of Pakistan, a reference to the Italian-born widow of former Indian prime minister Rajiv Gandhi who now dominates Indian politics through her presidency of that country's ruling Congress party.

Mr Zardari, 52, a former polo-playing bon vivant who now suffers from a heart condition and diabetes, was politically sidelined and living in Dubai before his wife was assassinated on December 27 last year. Since seizing control of the PPP and leading it to victory in February's election, Mr Zardari has dominated the country's affairs.

Though there had been suggestions during Mr Musharraf's tenure as president that the role should be stripped of many of its major powers, analysts in Islamabad expect that if Mr Zardari accepts the appointment he will oppose any whittling down of those powers.

At present, the president has exclusive authority to dissolve parliament and appoint such key officials as the army chief of staff as well as judges.

Mr Zardari's nomination is thought likely to further exacerbate tensions within the ruling coalition, already at breaking point over the issue of reinstating chief justice Iftikhar Chaudhry and other judges sacked by Mr Musharraf when he declared an illegal state of emergency last year. Though they present an outward appearance of bonhomie, aides say Mr Zardari and Mr Sharif are deeply suspicious of each other, and Mr Sharif is dead set against his rival becoming president.

Tensions between them are set to reach a climax later today with indications Mr Sharif's PML (N) party is poised to walk out of the coalition and move to the opposition benches.

Mr Sharif's fury with Mr Zardari over the failure to reinstate the chief justice and other judges, despite repeated promises to do so, intensified yesterday when it was disclosed that the PPP boss is now insisting on a so-called "minus one" formula for the restoration process.

Highly placed sources said Mr Zardari was insisting the volatile chief justice not be restored, pointing out that his exclusion from the Supreme Court bench was part of the internationally agreed arrangement that led to Mr Musharraf's resignation. Most analysts believe the "minus one" formula is likely to be the final straw for Mr Sharif and a red rag to the powerful lawyers' movement that has led the fight for democracy in Pakistan.

Highly placed PPP sources said last night that the party was untroubled by the prospect of Mr Sharif abandoning the coalition.

Breaking News: President Pervez Musharraf announces his resignation, while addressing the nation today

Musharraf resigns

President Pervez Musharraf announces his resignation, while addressing the nation today on media.


Facing an imminent impeachment, Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf today announced his resignation maintaining that he wanted to avoid the country being put into instability and confrontation.
"No impeachment or no chargesheet can stand against me.... But I think this is not the time for individual bravado... This is the time for serious thought.

"In the interest of the country, I have decided to resign. The resignation will reach the National Assembly Speaker shortly," the 65-year-old former army chief said in an emotional internationally televised address.

Musharraf's decision brings to an end a bitter confrontation between the presidency and the five-month-old PPP-led coalition government that has been gunning for him since its victory in the February 18 elections.

With his announcement, all speculation about his putting up a fight in Parliament has ended but still it was not clear whether he would be given any immunity while he stays in Pakistan or a safe passage.
