This is a good deal if you have a Smyths near you or if someone can pick it up for you. I excluded delivery price because its cheaper to just click and collect for free. If you want delivery I think its like £2 ish extra.

Ordered from Gameseek, looking forward to it as I loved the PS2 and PS3 games. Be even better if somebody could persuade Naughty Dog to bring out a newer version of the original Jak and Daxter as well :smile:

I REALLY want to play this, but I have such a backlog. I guess it can only get cheaper...

Is this a HD remake thing or a new game?

Insomniac have rebuilt so much of the game from scratch. Bigger levels, new bosses and new weapons etc. Not to be confused with a HD makeover and should be worth a look at this price.
I am tempted as the old ones were a lot of fun and different to my usual KILL EVERYTHING that moves style of game...

the game got great reviews so if you've enjoyed original games then i'm sure you'll love this one.

Also £25 at GameStop.
Apparently Smyths have terrible customer service so didn't bother with this store and ordered it from GameStop

My problem too. So many games. I pre-ordered Fallout 4 and now I doubt I'll ever play it...it's way down my list of games I look forward to playing.

A new j & d would be awesome getting ratchet and clank for my son to show him what I used to play when I was young

I have to say a huge thank you to the OP for this find, I was just thinking this morning I don't really want to pay 40 for a single player game, no matter how much nostalgia
Just pre ordered, great price

it has a lot to keep you going too, I've only played an hour but the customisation for gun and gear upgrades means that too fully complete the game it will take a fair few hours!

Came from GameCollection this morning for £26. Absolutely cracking game. Look as a plays beautifully :laughing:

HEAT anyway.

I am still trying to get through games on my PS3 and 360, can't imagine what the scenario would be like if I brought a ps4 into the house.
Cannot wait to play this game when the time comes though, looks so good.

Oh I didn't realise release date, I received it too days ago :smiley: great game imo

So awesome that Insomniac have been so damn loyal to this series since 2002 and haven't abandoned it like ND did with Jak and Daxter. Don't get me wrong I love Uncharted/LOF but would kill to see a PS4 Jak and Dax.
In a perfect world they would get the rights back to Crash Bandicoot and just do a pure platforming game for next gen too, none of that Crash of the Titans rubbish ;(

I've never had a problem with Smyths. GameStop however, sent me back a faulty PS4 saying they couldn't reproduce the fault, I plugged it back in and bam original fault within a minute. Needless to say Sony also found the fault immediately and were 100% more helpful.
It's funny how customer experience can vary so wildly at times. Game Collection are the best out there, IMO.

If only I think they are too busy with uncharted and last of us to bother about their old titles. :disappointed:

Wouldn't touch Smyths again with a 10 foot barge pole after the crap they pulled at Christmas.

Loved Ratchet & Clank and must be worth me buying a PS4 for to re-live the originals. May just buy at a lower price and wait until I get the console.
Would love it if Jak and Daxter come back as well.

Bit **** off that SimplyGames sent out UAE copies with no mention of it on the site :disappointed: best they'll do is a return if it's fully sealed too.

Hang on. Am I being thick here or what? Preordered from Smyths thinking I was preordering a physical copy. I've just received an email from Smyths containing a downcode code for the game. What's going on? The Smyths website doesn't mention anything about it being a digital version, nor does the email I received when I placed the preorder. Anyone else had this same issue?
mrobbo
21 Apr 161#38
The email reads :
Dear Customer,
Thank you for preordering Ratchet and Clank PS4 with Smyths Toys. Please see below your DLC code.
Is this for the actual game, or for DLC within the game?
Anyone else had this?
Spidersmudge
21 Apr 161#39
What did they do?
ben31
21 Apr 16#40
Its either a pre order bonus dlc code for R&C or a bonus fifa 2016 code like it said on the email. Got another email explaining about the physical copy.
mrobbo
21 Apr 16#41
Ah right, I've a second email explaining about the physical copy. I'll wait until I have it in hand, then try the download code, see what it entails!
KhanRuss
21 Apr 16#42
I too got this email, not sure what it's for, maybe for the extra gun you get for preordering? However I got another email confirming my order and not to go to the store until they tell me do so (I presume to collect the physical copy)
Monketron
21 Apr 16#43
So. I get an email at 5pm saying my order is READY TO COLLECT and I can come up any time to get it. So I brave rush hour traffic to drive to the store, as I fancied playing it tonight. Only to be told the release date is tomorrow and even though they have had the game in stock for 3 days (and emailed me to come collect) they can't physically give me a copy until tomorrow and the email was an error.
Fair to say I am annoyed! Smyths! *shakes fist*

'If you pre-order Ratchet & Clank (PS4) you will unlock The Bouncer, one of the fan-favourite weapons from Ratchet & Clank 2.'
I imagine it's for that. Just put the code into PS store on your playstation. You probably don't even need the game installed.
PrinceRules64
21 Apr 161#45
I haven't bought it from Smyths so I can't tell you for sure, but it sounds like DLC - which would be the free preorder DLC for the 'bouncer weapon'. Looking at the Smyths page now there appears to be no mention of it, but since so many other retailers are offering it I wouldn't be surprised if Smyths also has codes.
If the code is presented to you in the email without having to 'claim' it or somesuch then you can find out what it is without using it per se. Log in to the PSN web store https://store.playstation.com/#!/en-gb/home/games and go to Redeem Codes using the dropdown under your PSN ID. There you can enter the code and it will show you what it is before you confirm redemption.
Hope that helps

FYI: If you don't have a Smyths store near you for pickup, it's an extra £2 for delivery (£26.99 total). Or maybe grab it from Base for £26.49. I've used both before and have had quick deliveries. http://www.base.com/buy/product/ratchet-and-clank-ps4/dgc-ratchetps4.htm
