I’ve been going through the Ratchet & Clank games starting from #1. Just finished Going Commando after awhile and was excited to move on to Deadlocked cause I loved the controls. I start up Up Your Arsenal cause it’s in order, and I find “lock-strafe mode” in the settings.
Holy. Shit. I’m like a kid in the candy store! I thought Deadlocked was the only game that allowed free-aiming like that, but apparently it’s in all the games after and including Arsenal!
This inspired me to try out PS3 emulation again, and lo and behold, it fucking works spectacularly. I’m using a gaming laptop with a 5600h and 3060, so I thought PS3 emulation was still out of reach. Not with Future: Tools of Destruction.
I’m now looking forward to playing the rest of the Future series, as I stopped with Tools of Destruction as a kid.
Lastly I will say that I’m not sure if you played PS4 Ratchet & Clank remake or Rift Apart (PS5 or PC port) but both of those games are amazing to me.
