Product Description:
Learn what it's like to be part-robot, part secret agent in Secret Agent Clank. Using the same engine as the first hit Ratchet & Clank adventure, this game focuses, for the first time in the series, on the adventures of the beloved robot sidekick Clank and his secret alter-ego, Secret Agent Clank. Set after Size Matters, but before the events of Tools of Destruction, the premise behind Secret Agent Clank surrounds Ratchet as he's framed for a crime that he didn't commit. Unfortunately for the hero, the trial is skewed against him, and all indications point to him being found guilty. To save his friend, Clank dons the tuxedo and equipment of his favorite alter ego, Secret Agent Clank, and investigates who's behind the accusations. Along the way, he learns and acquires new abilities, such as Clank-Fu, which he'll use against his opponents. He'll also gain access to new weapons, such as bow tie boomerangs, cuff link bombs and jet boots.

- Clank stars in new R&C release for PSP
If you like the tongue in cheek humor in previous Ratchet & Clank offerings, you might enjoy taking control of both heroes in this fast moving and dodging wacky adventure. Clank takes off on his own, free from Ratchet's backpack, and while he is sometimes annoying in a lack of power, he certainly makes up for it in being "smart & clever". You will also get to control Ratchet in his quest for freedom from prison, intermingled with Clanks Secret Agent tasks utilizing stealth and stalking, heretofore not too common in previous R&C releases.

Overall, although I have not completed the game, it has been a fun companion on my daily commute. The PSP is a great platform in this respect, and this game makes the PSPs graphics capabilites shine!

- Pretty fun game, although a bit broken up
This is only the second "Ratchet and Clank" game that I have played, so I don't know how it compares with others (besides "Size Matters) or how it fits into the entire series.

This is sort of an action/adventure game, sort of a puzzle game. There are "Clank-only" missions that mostly involve stealth game play, some Ratchet missions that are challenges (survive so many waves of enemies) and some missions with the super-hero guy who I'm not familiar with. There is also some Patapon-style gameplay, where you have to press the buttons and match the beat.

The stealth play is pretty good. However, once you are detected, you have to start the mission over (either from the beginning or from the last checkpoint). Most of the Clank missions are stealth missions, and you don't have the option to "run and gun".

The weapons are very unique and kind of silly. Like many games, you start out with nothing and start acquiring weapons and skills. Like "Size matters", you collect bolts and trade them for weapon upgrades and ammo.

Overall, this is good game that is entertaining. I did find that the gameplay was pretty broken-up, however, which took some of the fun out of it. You go on a Clank mission, then a Ratchet challenge, then a bot mini-game, etc. I would have liked it more if it was a little more mission-to-mission type of gameplay, with the side missions and challenges spread out more.

The good:
- Funny story
- Good graphics and sound
- Lots of varied styles of game play.
- Stealth gameplay is very good. I think I enjoyed this style the most.

The bad:
- The checkpoints in the game drive me crazy. There is not enough of them. If you run into a challenging spot, you often gave to go back to the start of the mission if you die or blow stealth.
- As mentioned above, the story is a bit broken up. You jump from one style of gameplay to another every other mission or so.
- The mission menu can be kind of confusing.

- One of the best PSP games!
Secret Agent Clank is yet another installment in the Rachet and Clank series and is one of the best. This game will have you playing as Clank for the majority of the time but once in a while you will be playing as Rachet or Qwark. The Qwark missions are humorous and fun but the Rachet missions are just plain bad .You are just in a big arena, fighting wave after wave of enemies. It gets very repetitive and boring after two or three times. The real problem with this game is there are WAY too many Rachet missions and not enough Qwark missions. Luckily, most of the Rachet missions are optional but you are probably going to want to do them to get the rewards. The main story has you playing as Clank which at first is so weak that you have to go unseen but as you progress through the game and get more weapons you will be able to just run out and fight if you want. Don't get me wrong, this is a... well, a spy game. Most of the time you will have to go "undercover" to get past guards. That's not to say that this is a whole other experience than the other Rachet and Clank games. Playing as Clank is the game's best part. It has the same mechanics as the old games with some cool new stuff mixed in. Over all, if you like the Rachet and Clank series or are just looking for a great PSP game you won't be disappointed with Secret Agent Clank.
