  • Summary: Clank's on a mission. His best buddy, Ratchet, has been framed by a ruthless enemy and jailed for a crime he did not commit. Not only that, but Ratchet's maximum security prison is full of the universe's most dangerous criminals most of whom are lining up to personally 'welcome' Ratchet into his new cell. Luckily for Ratchet he’s got Clank on the outside, and luckily for Clank he's the kind of brainy little robot who is cool under pressure and knows a thing or two about tracking down a mysterious enemy. That's why, as Secret Agent Clank, he's hot on the trail of clues to unravel the mystery and secure Ratchet’s release from jail. Unleash Clank's cutting edge array of weapons and gadgets, such as Cufflink Bombs, Tie-a-Rangs, Spy Sunglasses and the ever helpful Holo-Disguise Monocle. Launch into a variety of gameplay styles from all-out action to cunning stealth and brain-busting puzzle solving. Drive state-of-the-art super spy vehicles including speedboats, snowboards and sports cars. Play as Clank, Ratchet and even Captain Qwark to gather enough evidence to set Ratchet free and discover who framed the innocent Lombax. [SCEA] Expand

    With tongue planted firmly in-cheek, this wacky platformer serves up some insanely original action that's definitely worth checking out.
  2. While its many tweaks send the series in new directions, they're still drenched in the franchise's unmistakable style, and rarely pull you from the fun.
  3. Clank's first starring role stops short of brilliance because of niggly problems. [Sept 2008, p.72]
  4. The result is restless and, in the context of Clank’s overalls story, incoherent. But it’s also vibrantly diverse. [Sept 2008, p.95]

    This game is sweet it brings on a new way to play clank and unlike other r and c's you have to be sneaky. Plus you get a sweet sports car. P.S High Impact games this is the best r and c yet I give it a 10. Expand

    Secret Agent Clank is not as bad as people make it out to be. Sure it relies on quicktime button mashes which can be annoying and Clank is a bit annoying as a protagonist but it's just a fun game for all who are interested. The Bond theme makes for some relatively fun experiences and the challenge is robust. There is no reason to avoid this game if you love Ratchet & Clank Expand
  3. Uneven but overall fun. There are far too many QTEs and the story isn't all that good, but the rest of the gameplay is fun and competently put together, and of course there are lots of cool weapons to mess around with. Expand
  4. The psp version is terrible. Get it on PS2 instead to avoid the several bugs, uncomforable controls, rigged unfair boss battles, etc. Its a funny game yea, but this is very bad. This is why ONLY insomniac games should develop this series. Remember what happened to Spyro? It died. This and ratchet and clank size matters proves my point. Expand
