Aranos--Ratchet And Clank: Going Commando

Woke up in a cell that looked nothing like the video advertised it to be. WHERE IS MY VEGETARIAN MEAL!?

Anyways, a girl-bot showed up and lead Clank out of the cell. He then fought his way to the controls that released the force field holding Ratchet in the cell.

Switching between Ratchet and Clank, I fought my way through the ship until they met up in the hanger bay, but the ship was behind a force field. While trying to find the switch to turn the force field off, I found the Plumber. He sold me a Captain Qwark action figure he took out of the drain and said "see you in another year or so" (Foreshadowing to Up Your Arsenal)

After working my way through large amounts of Lava (Why do they have lava on their ship) I made it to the control room where I got a message from Angela. She found out how to stop the protopet, but was captured after doing a terrible cat impersonation. Fortunately Clank was able to get the location of the Thugs-4-less fleet. Next stop, Gorn (Hope there are no lizards to fight.)

I found a new went during this level, and I took the Qwark action figure back to the Qwark Fanboy on Todano to get the Armor Magnetizer

Boldan--Ratchet And Clank: Going Commando

Looks like Thugs-4-Less is working for Megacorp, who want to protect Fizzwidget from Ratchet and Clank. That means I'm still going to have to deal with them even though Angela is on my side now.

Once I got to Silver City I had a problem. the main entrance was blocked by a force field. So I had to navigate the Hyper-Expressway using the Levitator, fly through machinary and an electrically charged tunnel to turn the force field off.

Then it was off to explore the city and find Fizzwidget. After fighting through a bunch of Thugs-4-Less Elite Henchmen and Class 2 Brutes I found an Armor Vendor and bought the Duraplate Armor

After that I got to walk around on the outside of a couple of building where I took on more Thugs. Fortunatly one hit was usually enough t take them out and my Synthoids soon upgraded to Kilonoids. I eventually found Fizzwidget, but it was one of the robot ones. Turns out it was a trap to lure Ratchet and Clank there and they were sent to the Thugs-4-Less prison on planet Aranos.

Over all a fun level. I increased my Nanotech levels 5 times and found a platinum bolt.

Todano--Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando

I took the rather pathetic guided tour of the Megacorp Armory. It was nothing like the video and if I didn't have more important things to do I would demand my money back. I had to fight a bunch of mutant test squirrels during it and accidentally killed most of the other people on the tour with me. opps.

Work my way through the weapons facility and fought a bunch of Chickenbot 2.0s. I kind of Miss those things. Also saw a bunch of sheep for some reason. Used the Tractor Beam to get through a lot of security systems and found out why there were so many sheep. They were testing the Sheepinator!

Next I checked out the rest of the facility. I had to go through mine field filled with Squirrels and a Robot Guard. Fortunately my Synthoids and Minirocket tube made short work of them. Once inside I had to deal with more Troopers that kept beaming in but again the Minirocket Tube took care of them. Once I got through all of them Angela (the Thief) gave me Fizzwidget's location.

Now it's off to Boldan. Hopefully I can stop him from unleashing the Protopet of the galaxy.

I also had a couple of Nanotech Level increases, bought the Lava Gun and found two Platinum Bolts. I'm going to have to go through and find the ones I missed one of these days.

Deep Space Disposal--Ratchet And Clank: Going Commando

Got to the Deep Space Disposal facility and got attacked by turrets! Turns out the password Fizzwidget gave me didn't work. Big shock that he got it wrong. After defeating the turrets, which had an annoying habits of repairing themselves, I got the coordinates of the Megacorp Armory on Todano. I stuck around an completed most of the challenges to get more points and am on my way to Todano.

Megacorp Games--Ratchet and Clank Going Commando

I got the Robo Rampage Skill Point when I turned Lunar City into a parking lot while fighting the Thugs-4-Less Leader as Giant Clank (this was on Dobbo. After that I stuck around Dobbo until I got the Mini Rocket Tube.

Then it was on to Joba. First thing I did, after refilling my ammo, was win the Hover Bike Race and the Charge Boots. I also bought the Spiderbot Glove and won the Gravity Boots and Infiltrator in the Megacorp Games. I found the Platinum Bolt and defeated the Arachnoid as well.

Lost of nanotech level ups in this world, mostly in the arena and fighting natives, but now it's on to the Hrugis Cloud Deep Space Disposal

Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando--Clank's Appartment

I got to Clank's appartment a little bit ago and got my Grind Boots and Swingshot. With these I was able to get to the Modification Vendor. I didn't buy any, but I did have enough to get the Pulse Rifle. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go save Clank.

Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando--Arena Battle

Well, I won the Arena Battle, got the Electrolyzer, Won the next arena battle and got 1500 bolts, and then I faced Chain Blade.

Chain Blade was tough. I think I died about 10 times fighting him, but I beat him, I started out circle strafing him and using Gravity Bombs when he was on the ground. When I ran out of those, I switched to the Chopper. When he took to the air, I started running towards him firing the Heavy Lancer, jumping to the side when ever he prepared to attack.

Now it is on to Megapolis on Endako to save Clank, but that will have to wait till next week's challenges :)

Now if you'll excuse me, ECW is about to start :)

Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando--Jamming Array

I deactivated the Jamming Array earlier today. It took me a few tries though. Despite what I said earlier about the game being easier then last time I played these levels, this part was harder then I remember. Got plenty of bolts though. Got enough to get the Blitz Gun, which will come in handy in the Arena Battle.

I'm off to the arena now. Hopefully I can beat it before ECW starts.

Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando--Oozla

I beat this level last night, but it was late and I needed to get to bed. I got the Tractor beam and the Dynamo (YEAH! TOYS!)

It was a lot easier this time. I first played Going Commando when I first got my PS2 (it was the first PS2 game I rented) and I remember that, while not real tough, it was tougher then it was this time through.

I'll post this week's challenges in a little bit
