  1. Sure, it has a few nominal quirks, but when push comes to shove, this game puts on an entertaining show with value that far exceeds its budget pricing, thanks to a sizeable campaign and a fun selection of eight unlockable arcade-style mini-games.
  2. Ruff Trigger's budget price is just about its only saving grace, because any neat mechanic in the game is met on all ends by the boring and sometimes frustrating gameplay.
  3. A mediocre actioner that's probably best ignored. For what it is, though, it's surprisingly good. If you're willing to give him some time and earn him some cool guns, this budget bounty-hunter has some fun to offer.
  4. Unfathomably derivative. [Aug 2006, p.90]

    Ratchet and Clank. Tailor made for the furry audience. That said, it's not a bad game. Nothing new or especially exciting, but not broken or lame either. Expand

    This game is almost the same as Rachet and Clank: Going Commando, however it lacks a certain fun unlike Ratchet and Clank, I'm very dissapointed but I should not have expected quality from a game that's priced so low. Expand
