Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3)

Re: Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3)

I believe the moon is Korathos Alpha, it's the alpha moon in the sector that starts with a K. There is a guy show sets off a quest chain there, tried that?

Im getting lazy, still gotta go through again.

Thanks, I finally came across it in the Phylax Sector and that got me the trophy. All Ive got left now are...

- My Blaster Runs Really, Really Hot
- Glutton for Punishment
- The Lombax Triumphant (Platinum)

The blaster one is tough since I only have one controller and therefore have to do it entirely on my own. I really want the platinum but Im just not sure I can play through the entire game again just to get it.

Pace yourself...it shouldn't be that bad. Lots of fun obliterating things with the RYNO.

Well I started my second playthrough, which I should point out is completely pointless. Apparently the challenge playthrough has nothing to do with the difficulty as you can change it anyways so all Im doing is blazing through the game again on casual difficulty just to get it done and over with. After that then all Ive got left is the trophy for scoring 10,000 on the arcade game at the megaplex. Hopefully within the next week or so I will have my 3rd platinum finally and then I can mail it back to gamefly and move on to Uncharted 2.

Re: Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3)

Just got the plat.

I've been lazy the last while, so I figured I'd power through.


While I'm really happy, I never want to see this game again.

Re: Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3)

Congrats on the platinum, did you do the second playthrough on casual as well? Going through it again won't be the problem but getting the 10,000 on that game might provide a major road block as I've been doing terribly at it so far.

I just did it on whatever the default is, so if it carries over hard. I literally blew through 3/4 of the story in one night. The final battle was tough cause I was a little tired, but I got it done.

As for the arcade game...don't really know what to say. Just practice, practice, practice. You'll get it eventually!

Re: Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3)

Ok, if you have any tips or advice on getting 10,000 on that game Im all ears as Ive been trying off and on today and the highest Im getting is 5,400. Is there a button that allows me to do more damage that maybe Im not aware of? Im only renting the game so I dont have a instruction manual so therefore Im not able to check this on my own. This is the last one I need for my platinum as I beat the game earlier today on the challenge playthrough.

[The Chef]

Re: Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3)

Well Whitesox Im about to give up. Ive played that damn arcade game over and over again and havent been able to even break 8,000 let alone the 10,000 you need for the trophy. I tried doing 2 player but my other half is awful so we were doing worse together then I was doing by myself. Im clueless what to do at this point, any suggestions? The highest Ive gotten was somewhere around 7,650 or so I believe but never any higher. I hate these games that make a trophy for something so stupid and difficult that it completely overshadows actually beating the game. I had fun playing through the game itself and was able to overcome those areas where I ran into issues but this arcade game is something else. I hate to just give up at this point as this is the only trophy I have left for my platinum but its going to drive me nuts if I have to keep playing this arcade game over and over again still.

Re: Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3)

So you re-beat the game, and are just about to give up?

My only advice, keep it up. Some things you may or not know:

1. When your blaster overheats, you can shoot a super blast with R1.

2. You can touch the enemies at the start. (The ones that don't shoot)

3. It's best to kill things one after another to gain a multiplier. This is achieved nicely with a super blast.

4. Level 15 is a boss

Try to emulate this guy:

Sorry to hear you're having trouble.

I'll give it a few more shots at some point whitesox, thanks for the video though. I love video games but there is one thing in life I cant stand and thats repetition or having to do the same things over and over again so when Im playing something like this and I find myself repeating it over and over again I quickly lose my patience. I do decently until the tanks appear and then Im generally toast rather quickly.

[Whitesox]

Re: Ratchet &amp; Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3)

Yeah, the tanks are tough. What I did was try to survive, not kill. Also, make sure that you kill the suicide bomb things when they're by tanks, if possible. Good luck, you'll get it eventually.

Re: Ratchet &amp; Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3)

I finished this game a few weeks ago, and I am now trying to get all of the trophies. The gold bolt on section 2 of the great clock is going to cause me to break my controller. No matter what I do, I always run out of time right before getting the bolt.

Did anybody else have major problems getting this bolt?

[The Chef]

I did as well and finally I just searched youtube and followed exactly what he did, once I did that then I got it quickly. I'm all for a challenge but at some point I have to cheat, so to speak, to move forward as I don't have the time to mess with it constantly.

Re: Ratchet &amp; Clank: A Crack in Time (PS3)

I found some videos on youtube, so hopefully I'll be able to get it the next time I play. I was getting so close; I would be right by the door with the gold bolt when my time would run out.
