All Weapons Animations - Ratchet & Clank

[@Visstnok]

The passion that went into these games is just unmatched.

[@jankjason]

Yeah, games back then had a lot of passion put into them, although people like to argue that even the early to mid 2000's had less passion than the 90s when it comes to games.

[@nchldmn]

Fun fact: at 5:00 if you take off Ratchets O2 mask immediately, you can see his facial expressions while hes breathing and laughing.

[@skitswithc8500]

How do you know that?

[@Adeyum64]

@@skitswithc8500By testing it out yourself? xD

[@nchldmn]

​@@skitswithc8500in the menu quickly take the helmet on and off to see

[@skitswithc8500]

@@nchldmn okay. Thanks for the tip. Did you do that in the game?

[@nchldmn]

​@skitswithc8500 yeah either version works

[@Skehrcros]

Loved watching these as a kid! They added so much personality

[@normietwiceremoved]

I feel stupid, but only last year I realised that the reason why Ratchet from Ratchet & Clank 1 feels so different even when he doesn't talk, is that his ears droop down 99% of the time.

[@geomania8533]

That he’s wearing a shirt. While OG Ratchet don’t need a shirt to travel the Galaxy and blast murder bots with a crazy amount of weapons

[@gemlik_rogue]

Loved these. I think these animations would've given even more personality to Ratchet in-game if he was standing still with a weapon or gadget.

[@ZPixel17]

Oh damn, that's an idea! I think these animations fit more for menus, but it's an intriguing idea for sure.

[@bloodedge1528]

3:13 Now *this* is what defined the entire Ratchet and Clank franchise as a whole.

[@normietwiceremoved]

They should have done this for every game

[@normietwiceremoved]

What i liked about the first game was the feeling of having a collection of mismatching gadgets from everywhere. Nothing felt connected, but in a fun way. Its just like real life whre we have collections of stuff which might look entirely different.

[@WarMasterGeneral]

Love messing with these as a kid Going from the spin in the Mine Glove to the Walloper is like he whips out the dukes before you know it And my friend and I found a glitch were equipping and unequipping the Magneboots makes him stuck to the floor in his bare feet. XD

[@NitroLad2001]

"It was perfect. PERFECT, everything down to the last minuet detail"

[@chiefblox4000]

I always like how the animation are like in RAC PS2

[@Reayashin]

5:21 was straight up foreshadowing Going Commando

[@scorcoz]

..how?

[@RYNOCIRATOR_V5]

No, Ratchet just really likes the helmet lol upon seeing it: "[...] I have GOT to get me one of those!" on getting it: "Now THIS, is COOL!"

[@gamursnek]

and to think, people WONDER AND ARE ACTIVELY CONFUSED when I say PS2 ratchet is superior and the HD transition has never been the same

[@Twocoolman115]

The HD games are great (mostly), but yeah, they just don’t have that same aesthetic, ya know?

[@timehunter9467]

Something tells me the O2 Mask is him laughing after sounding like Darth Vader.

[@xdr22]

Good work on the upscaling dude !

[@Solarship_Radical]

It’s cool seeing these up close. Gotta appreciate the small details and love that went into the first game

[@klear93]

Thank you for these! I always loved how much attitude they gave him! 😄

[@WinVisten]

I never realized that he didn't actually hold the Hologuise properly, but the animations are cute and funny and zany and I love them. x3

[@scorcoz]

He is holding it correctly though..

[@hatukari485]

4:35 Hologuise light gray

[@Just_An_Animal]

Oh how i love this game

[@dog8668]

The decoy one is my fave

[@tomrow32]

Is it just me, or do Ratchet's eyes look strange when he's looking directly forward at the camera?

[@gnbman]

He looks like he's posing for Gadgetron promos.

[@sd5lze2ls-]

he's quite adorable

[@FBAGameplayHonorableGamer]

Noticed it was alot of similar animations for them, but besides that Ratchet was Vibing with the Spikeball animation feeling smug and having fun with the magne boots also confused with the magneboots and chick-a-nator or what it is called Wouldnt it be funny if it made chicks as in girls instead of chicken? hahaha (would be a fun thing to have on collectors menu)

[@cooliobros4016]

Ah yes, my favourite weapon, the metal detector

[@Pacster1980]

Man... i am a big fan of the franchise... sadly i will never have the chance to play the 2016 remake or even Rift Apart... I could play both PS2 and PS3 era including the spinoffs... Going back to the video itself, the animations that Ratchet make for weapons and gadgets always make me laugh hard!!! ahhhhhhh... the nostalgia....

[@TheRojo387]

2:30: Nice try, but the difference is obvious. Kitty cat.

[@crashed_electrolux]

To remember: Ratchet makes a evil face when you get Pyrocitor or Devastator in-game. Unsure if is the same thing for R.Y.N.O.

[@crashed_electrolux]

Never realised how R.Y.N.O is big. It is basically Ratchet's size upstanding, which is canonically 5 feet.

[@crashed_electrolux]

And by the 5 feet, i've came to realise that ratchet has half of Skid's height, therefore Skid McMarx has like 3 meters.

[@official_cloudiixcorn]

I have the R.Y.N.O in-game and I can confirm he indeed does make the evil face when he equips it. XD Just like the Pyrocitor and Devastator. I think he mostly does it when you equip the more dangerous weapons like those 3.

[@FBAGameplayHonorableGamer]

Metropolis song never disapoints *vibes*

[@SleepyIceman6472]

It's odd how the Tesla Claw has the animation that transitions into the animation Ratchet plays for weapons too heavy to conveniently carry in one hand but goes into the animations weapons like the Blaster and Bomb Glove use and how the Visibomb gun has the animations for the Blaster and Bomb glove after it's initial animation even though the gun is clearly meant to be a 2-handed weapon. Maybe the Visibomb gun is lighter than it looks and there wasn't enough time to re-animate the Tesla Claw's animation? Though one thing that makes no sense is that Ratchet uses the heavy weapon animation for the metal detector which judging by it's looks is not heavy enough to warrant being unable to carry conveniently in 1 hand.

[@rulixx9973]

RYNO I love it

[@Theguywhoplaysshank]

Sweet!

[@saragarnica723]

On this very special day: November 4th, 2002 - November 4th, 2023 Happy 21st Anniversary to Ratchet & Clank!!!🥳🎉🎊

[@pinkiepie9478]

0:34, if I’m not wrong, this animation is a reference of James Bond (007)?

[@caustin850]

3:13 Yay! A R.Y.N.O!

[@mr.marvin]

SOUL

[@WarMasterGeneral]

Any chance you could do another of these with Courtney Gears' dance from the monitors in Deadlocked?

[@Rutchet]

It's just a couple of textures changing over and over, but I'll try to check it out

[@Tezla_Insanity]

Nostalgia ❤

[@raynemalyon8810]

I only just realised, did Ratchet ever have a permit to carry so many arms.

[@MisterJohnDoe]

Not sure if he even needs one. There's like vending machines selling weapons around every block.

[@briarmason8737]

I don't think he cares about legality considering he got the most powerful missile launcher through a guy who stole it.

[@gaufreungaming7087]

i got a bug in the selection and the telt got the golden texture i do a video on my chanlle but is very old

[@TheRealBlazingDiamond]

Most people don't know the TELT, they only know the RYNO because that's the English name, just to let you know

[@nuclearawr]

The love and passion from this series is gone. 😢

[@NinjonLazarus]

Can you do the other games animations as well? Oooooh yeah! They don't have.😢 I really miss little things like this.

[@Optimal_Elem3nt0r98]

5:21 :D👍

[@coolgirl2044]

Clank is just on Ratchet's back like "🫥"
