The Story of Ratchet and Clank 1 was actually TERRIFYING

Chairman Drek was throwing me off, so I looked up his voice actor. That's also the voice of Captain Gantu, the giant sharkman police officer from Lilo and Stitch

Ohh, that's why it was familiar

Pro Tip: The Ratchet & Clank Trilogy HD runs virtually flawlessly now on RPCS3. It includes the first three PS2 games with native widescreen and with RPCS3 you can upscale the resolution to 4k or even higher and make the FPS unlimited as well as many other graphical enhancements. PS3, PS4, & PS5 controllers are plug & play, even wirelessly. We're now in the golden age of emulation.

[@josieteran7082]

Now these are good news

It has no issues with uncapped FPS? I heard it caused bugs iirc.

The only sad thing is that Giant Clank exists in the original series and not in the future series.

[@EvanHelblingYT]

That’s a bummer, he was OP

[@bluenitethewarrior9332]

Wonder if they got a in universe reason for that. Like how clank somewhat confused when told by rivet that he should've had a jet pack. Maybe it's part that was overused. Then since the harbor factory isn't being run anymore. Can't replace it

[@isorbrusell3922]

Actually you can in the ”All 4 one” game

Great video. You seem to have played all the games I did back in the day, so your channel is just pure nostalgia and I love it. That ratchet music. The first is so good.

[@lillordakira9752]

This story is still better than the remake and the movie.

[@xdreamx]

I didn't realize how much more intimidating Drek was in the original compared to the remake. Awesome video as always(Especially all the puns sprinkled throughout). I'm sorry if I'm wrong... Your energy is usually higher, so I hope you're doing okay man. People often forget KZbinrs are people too. With that being said, like the last four letters of your surname... Keep shining bro.

[@EvanHelblingYT]

Thankyou dude! Yeah he’s pretty much the devil in this game lol, I never played the remaster but I coulda guessed they toned him down a bit in these times. I’ve definitely been stressing about behind so behind on the video tbh. So I wouldn’t say you’re wrong - I appreciate the kind words ❤️

[@Cade_The_Squirrel]

Some people have asked how Qwark can gain good PR from supporting Drek, I say its the same way Drek has, feigning support for a downtrodden community, obviously Drek has been popular as he ranks up throughout the game until he has full control over the Blargian military, remember in real life Hitler was heavily considered for the Nobel Peace Prize.
