  1. For the last two titles, the developers of Ratchet & Clank have done a wonderful job building full-featured multiplayer support into their games. Size Matters is arguably the best attempt to date. Although it only supports four players at a time, the maps and modes are meticulously built to wring the most out of multiplayer matches.

    Visually, the game is excellent - and sometimes astounding. Ratchet's fluid animation must be seen to be believed, and there are moments (Clank's aerial levels come to mind) where the range of colors and particle effects will blow you away.
  3. Not small and not perfectly formed, but packs a wicked punch. Accomplished, but stops short of brilliance. [May 2007, p.60]
  4. Stages are smaller and battles are often less intense but Size Matters makes up for the shortfall in calibre with a visual imagination that, for the first time, makes a Ratchet & Clank games feel like an actual adventure instead of a sequence of shootout-corridors threaded along a necklace of planets. [Apr 2007, p.88]

    Incredible fun and variety - addictive, well done - I own a lot of psp games - this one is really the one to have.
  2. Got so much joy out of it!
  3. This game has so much good things and has put the Ratchet and Clank universe a beautiful place looking like something from a Saturday morning cartoon and the cut-scene when Otto meets Ratchet is absolutely great and graphics are excellent by the standard. The only con is the camera because of the centering. Expand

    It's a good game, but way too short.
