This level is such a mindblowing achivement for the ps2. A giant city with flying cars and with silky smooth 60fps.

As impressive as Rift Apart was, I fear Ratchet and Clank will never return to what it once was. This game had everything, the atmsophere, the personality, the world-building, it was all there. So far ahead of its time.

This right here is the most iconic theme from the series

One thing that makes me appreciate this soundtrack even more is the fact that Ratchet had never seen any planet other than veldin before the game starts, so all the wonder and curiosity these tracks evoke in the player are probably the same feelings ratchet felt.

I feel like the newer games completely miss the style the old games had. The newer games seem to go for a more "futuristic cyberpunk" aesthetic, with a more cinematic approach, while the older games had a more "retro/steampunk, mechanical element" to them, and completely made fun of the corporate world the universe infatuated itself with. It's almost as if the newer games became what the older games made fun of.

Way better than the "generic Marvel super hero" vibe of the remake soundtrack.

Dang Helga, making you pay 1,000 bolts for a swingshot. Life's not fair.

Ratchet: "Hey you're that robot guy, right?"

Al: "No, I build robots. I, myself, am not a robot guy, per se. Ehehehehe."

Ratchet: "Nerd."

Clank: "I like him."

And here we find Big Al. Such a dork but easily became one of my favorite characters in the series.

And here we have the background theme of every Ratchet and Clank video essay ever made.

This is a fun song to listen to on headphones.

Ratchet and Clank fly to Metropolis on planet Kerwan, looking to buy the Heli-Pack upgrade from Big Al's Robo Shack.

I can hear Ratchet falling.

Classic theme.

2:40 is such an underrated part. Really gives you feels of standing atop a building watching a large flying car or futuristic blimp floating on by.

I like how this is the longest David Bergeaud theme in the series.

You know a soundtrack is iconic when you can hear the ambiance of the planet, just by listening to the soundtrack.

This is PS2 games National Anthem

1:08 is just a fucking insane jam, damn this music was buzzin on this game

I wish they'd bring Bergeaud back. There simply is nothing else that sounds like this in all of gaming. Absolutely legendary

This, Blackwater City, Gemlik Base, and the Starship Phoenix themes are the best in the entire series. So many childhood memories 🤩
