Ratchet & Clank: Future: A Crack in Time gets dated photo

I just figured out what I'm doing on October 27, without question -- playing Ratchet & Clank: Future: A Crack in Time!
 
Sony has announced that Insomniacs third-person adventures of the Lombax and robot will be available in stores at the end of October. If you haven't been paying attention to it, A Crack in Time is one of my most anticipated games this fall. Drake's what now? Modern whofare?
 
Insomniac has always delivered with its Ratchet titles, but my short time with A Crack in Time hints that it could be the best one yet. I was shocked by the updated visuals, a level of detail and polish even more impressive than the previous games. And that's saying a hell of a lot. 
 
I was also impressed by the Insmoniac's Clank gameplay mechanic which allows you to "record" moments in time to solve puzzles and overcome obstacles. Think of it like their answer to Portal, with some mind-bending situations that had me scratching my head more than a few times; beats pushing boxes around, eh?

Never played R&C till PS3 (was always a Jak man myself).

But ToD was amazing, as was QFB, so CiT will be equally if not more so amazing!

I got hooked with R&C games after Up Your Arsenal & Going Commando. This game is going to be solid.

Great game, finishing up Deadlocked now. The reason I'm getting the PS3 is this right here (and GoW3).

How much do I love thee? I wrote a screenplay, goddammit.

I bought a used PS2 just to play the prequels after I totally fell in love with Tools of Destruction. (The prequels don't play properly on a software-BC PS3. Fsckers...) This game can't get here quickly enough.

I loved those games on PS2, makes me sad I don't have a PS3.

Well it's about damn time, I have been wondering when I would get to continue the story since finishing Quest for Booty.

October 27th?

Ratchet and what? Is he the little Kangaroo with boxing gloves or the big one?
Sorry Insomniac, I have a King of Iron Fist Tournament that day.

I remember playing the first one and liking it but stopped playing cause so many came out that it turned me off.

this one should be good and I don't wanna miss the boat, it's just there's so many damn games coming out this fall/winter. I tallied over $650 worth of games/dlc alone and I didn't even include this D:
