Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal PS2

Lending weight to all those sayings about the number three (it's magic, a charm and, apparently what most things come in), Insomniac Games completes a hat trick with the online enabled follow-up to its hugely popular Ratchet & Clank 2: Locked and Loaded.

Reuniting the galaxy-hopping pair once more for a tale of interplanetary espionage and adventure, Ratchet & Clank 3 sees weapons expert Ratchet and his robotic companion Clank teaming up for another mission on the Lombax's home planet Veldin, this time to save all organic life in the universe. And, as well as being able to follow the game's plot as the wisecracking twosome in single-player mode, you can now also enlist a group of pals to play in the online multiplayer modes.

# Eliminate mates and heap humiliation on your opponents in split-screen and online multiplayer modes

# Ride out in new vehicles, including the Hovership, Hovertank and Turbo Slider

# Captain Quark, Big Al, Helga and Skidd McMarxx return as team Q-Force

# An even more outlandish arsenal, with some heavy duty new weapons added to the mix
