I cannot express enough just how much this moment means to me for this project to finally be reality. You're all the most incredible, supportive and very patient people for putting up with my shit for 9.5 years since this Ratchet business began. I thank you for sticking with me through the thick of it and I just need you all to know, I gave it my all. This video is a celebration for me, but it's a celebration of YOU! 💜 Cheers and I hope it was worth the wait, have a great fucking day! -Jak
@@MatthewCenance It was very cute thankyou! All of the submissions will be posted in a huge compilation at a later date so everyone can see all the creative stuff people made! 😄😄
It's...ACTUALLY mind blowing to me this finally happened. I've discovered this gem of a channel back in 2017, and I've stuck around for nearly 8 years of this running joke to finally see come true
Yo man! 😂 I didn’t know you were a fellow square eyed jak fan. And yeah I thought that sounded a bit low at first but I feel like he may just be leaving room to be improved with the sequels.
Oh hey, that's my voice at the start! Thank you so much Jak, it's an honor to be a part of such a special video! You've inspired me to do my own thing so I thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️
I was a bit shocked when you said you didn't like Captain Qwark. To me, he's one of, if not, the funniest characters in the game. He's like if Kronk from Emperor's New Groove was a douche. His voice actor made the character and a lot of his jokes even more enjoyable to watch
Congrats on 200 episodes! Getting the whole trilogy reviewed this month is a huge surprise! Thanks for the early Christmas gift! I absolutely love ratchet and clank, it's my favorite series of the holy triangle of the PS2 so I'm excited to see what you have to say about the next two.
0:48 OH BEANS I MADE IT IN! R&C3 was my first PS2 game, so regardless of our collective pestering, I was stoked finding out this was actually happening. The hype did not disappoint. 200 episodes of a review style so close to home its... well, in the same bloody country. So thrilled I got instantly hooked a few years back, congrats on the milestone Jak!
same here. I'm honestly pretty happy about this milestone for one of my FAVORITE creators and being featured even if it was only for a brief "Blink and you'll miss it" moment
It’s crazy to see how far this channel and you as a person has come the past decade, it’s been a blast, from the Crash Bandicoot reviews to Tony Hawktober. You have provided me and many others with entertaining and informative content and I hope you can continue for years to come. I remember saying on the 100th episode “hears to another 100”, well here’s to another 200 Jak. Thank you so much for doing what you do, can’t wait to see you do the rest of the trilogy but in the meantime…I HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT FUCKING DAY!! Now when’s the Simpsons Hit and Run review?
This is one of your greatest videos, the comedy, the written and even just the review Is peak, you’ve definitely established yourself as a great creator
1:34 AH THERE I AM! Man 200 episodes. I remember just first stumbling on the channel back when the Crash Bash video was new. It was amazing and glad that you still are going man. Here is to more years of content.
I wasn’t able to get a submission in but it’s so amazing to see everyone who did! I remember almost a decade ago when everyone first wanted you to review this game and my god it’s actually here, what a journey man!
Damn, I remember people asking for this when the first QnA came out. Also thanks for putting me in the video somehow lol. I love this channel and you are one of my most favorite youtubers right next to somecallmejohnny. Congrats to 200 episodes!
I’ve been a big fan of your’s for years, and played Ratchet & Clank games for the first time throughout this year and it’s one of my favorite franchises now, what a great day
Bro I found your channel back from you first Jan trilogy reviews and laughed/was sad you were never gonna review the ratchet games. These days much less time is spent on RUclips so I'm very glad to see this gem finally roll round and I caught it haha
Glad to see you finally hitting this series! Ratchet 2 was when they really hit their stride, but the first game has a massive amount of charm and nostalgia
Who's that handsome devil at 2:58? 🤔 It was an honor to be apart of this. You were my main inspiration with a lot of this RUclips stuff my man, it's been great seeing you continue to grow over the years! This video was fantastic. Much love to you always my friend, and here's to another 200 episodes 😎
Incredible review Jak! A long time coming and you absolutely killed it. After 199 episodes I expect no less from the Squareeyed one. Congratulations on the milestone buddy!
Finally, finally, finally. I've been waiting for this since the beginning. I'm glad you finally did it. My first experience with Ratchet and Clank was on a Jam pack Disk where the only levels available were Metropolis on Kerwan and Blackwater City on Rilgar... Bro, me and my neighbors spent hours trying to beat the sewer level on Rilgar. I'm currently playing through every single game to make my way up to Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart.
2:43 lol there I am Seriously though, congratulations on 200 episodes. Been watching for quite a while. also yes that's the movie I'm holding lmao, I found it at a charity shop. I don't have a physical copy of the trilogy, I got that digitally.
Thanks for following through with this video, and the subsequent Ratchet & Clank Trilogy games, even after 200 episodes, it's dope to finally see them happening, glad I've been in the Discord for the past 2 years as well, and I'm looking forward to what new content you release in 2025, cheers dude.
This is huge for the channel congrats jak I feel like I’ve commented to review the ratchet trilogy for years now n here we are, once again CONGRATS n TOOK YA LONG ENOUGH 😜
I'm happy Jak got to finally end a long running gag for his review series, by actually reviewing Ratchet and Clank, not only that but doing the original three games making episode 200 a three parter, I'm happy Jak likes the PS2 classic and finally understands why the RYNO kicks ass.
Can't believe Jak got John Ratchet and Clank after getting John Croc: Legend of the Gobbos. Excellent video Jak, your videos always have so much care put into them. Excited to see the rest of the Ratchet trilogy videos.
Congrats on reaching 200 episodes, and on FINALLY giving R&C a try! It's great to be a part of this (my voice at 0:27)! Thanks for the great content, keep it coming! PS: so many hilarious moments during the intro! Congrats to everyone who showed up as well!
My goodness! This wasn't a fake out after all! The mad mate actually did it!!! I am so happy to see how much the community has come together for this! This is the PERFECT 200th special! Thank you so much, mate, and have a great fucking day!!!:)
Never thought I'd see the day Jak, been watching your videos for almost 10 YEARS NOW!! Crazy how time flies. Never stop doing what you love. God bless.
Hell! Yes! It has all led to this moment, and the final result is an awesome one to say the very least! The way you not only professionally pick apart aspects of the game, but also shed a bright light to all the good stuff shows how far you've come, and how this review... was pretty much created at the perfect time of your continuous improvement. I'm happy for your milestone, Jak, and I'm also happy to lend my own voice too! (0:31)
Man, disappointed I didn't end up submitting a clip 😅 It's been freakin' FOREVER since we've started begging for you to review Ratchet & Clank, and oh you're doing all 3 right now (just got to that part towards the end haha) AWESOME. Can't wait to see how Ratchet 2 goes for ya, I can definitely see the Ratchet 3 vid already... It was very similar to Jak 3 from memory (the scope seemed about on par or even greater than the 2nd entry but as you got further in it was clear that Time constraints led it to having a kinda "Unfinished" feeling... Also I believe Ratchet 2/3 on that PS3 HD Collection have a ton more texture and graphical issues/bugs, definitely the weakest "HD Trilogy" out of Itself, Jak & Sly)
Holy damn, 200 episodes? That is a monumental task and now it all pays off in the end! From the crash bandicoot days in 2014, to your PlayStation move heroes review in 2018, and now the long awaited R&C review we always wanted to see! Thanks jak for 200 episodes and the memories from the beginning. Cheers!🎉
On this day, history has been made. Rewritten. The ways of our mortal realm unravel before our very eyes. The laws of time and space lay shattered, and Ratchet and Clank reviewed.
Heck yeah! One of my favorite series. The Taunter shouldn’t be considered a weapon but a gadget for breaking crates. I’m surprised you didn’t mention the lack of strafing. The mine glove is only useful in the fight against Drek in my opinion.
After 10 years, you finally have gotten around to the Ratchet & Clank series, it's about bloody time! Haha joking aside, it's awesome to see you finally get around to talking about the series and it was worth the wait. I can understand now why you didn't talk about the game since you personally didn't grow up with it per say like you did with Jak & Daxter and that's totally udnerstandable. Personally I started off with Ratchet & Clank and I was more or less glued to the first game and especially Going Commando before making my way to Jak through Jak , yeah my history with these two franchises is weird since I technically came in during their sequel installments right before their third games released. Point is, II totally undersand the situation as I was like that with Sly Cooper and didn't play those games until I was like 20-21 i Anyway on Ratchet & Clank 2002, I have way too many fond memories of this game and it's always a nostalgia blast for me taking me back to the summer of 2003 and finishing it in 2004 (including when I was being bad and skipping some days of school to play the game lmao). This game was truly something special, it inspired me to go even further with my own drawing & art so I owe the series, especially the first 3 games a lot to my continuation of my art journey. I also loved the music in this game, David Bergeaud is an amazing composer! And while the OSTs for the later 2 games have more action-packed songs the really get the adrenaline pumping, I still think the OST in this game is the best one of the three because I love how experimental it is with how it played around with techno, electronic, (some) industrial, and funk, it's such a nice smorgasbord of sounds. Though make no mistake, the trilogy + Deadlocked have amazing soundtracks and I do prefer them all compared to the OSTs that would come in the next generation of R&C. And I so feel that on the ifnal level, it really isaa ha hell of a challenge and yep, you'll more than likely spam the visibomb gun a lot here. I still remember feeling so tense making my way through the level as a kid sweating just what was around the corner. And the n the final boss battle, epic to say the least lol. As for the R.Y.N.O. I didn't get it until ab out my third playrhrough of the game many years ago and I did it the old fashioned way as I had no idea about that cheat lol. So. Many. Hoverboard. Races. My god, never again even if the weapon is honestly pretty boss. I think the appeal really was for kids who could see just how overpowered the weapon was and 15 year old me was entertained but yeah, once you get it it can take the fun away when you can cheese through everything so I really don't use it much when I replay the game. All in all, this was amazing and even though I'd probably give the game a higher score (yes, my nostalgia bias cannot be contained with this one lol), it was well worth the wait and I look forward to the next one! Happy 200th! (And also thanks for the inclusion at 29:01 , apologies again for submitting it so late! 😅)
Glad you finally tasted how good that game is. Back in the day I played the demobut had to wait until '04 to play it properly. Ratchet 3 is my favourite of the early trilogy.
I got this game bundled with my PS2 one Christmas and I really loved it, my mom never allowed me to play m rated games so I was allowed to play this one and it changed my life on a way. I remember I had a bad fever and I played this game and it just felt surreal and amazing, still have for this one
I honestly thought you had already reviewed those at some point, not gonna lie! I'm a fairly new sub. That being said, 200 episodes of games, many of which being from the PS2 era, for around a decade, and you haven't even touched the Ratchet and Clank series? ...well to be fair, outta the whole series, I only ever played Secret Agent Clank, much to my dismay, so y'know.
Hey! It was a lovely review! 🧡 One that many of us will keep close to our hearts! I loved the addition of Ratchet (and Clank)! I couldn't have imagine a more memorable pizazz!😁 I knew that the longer we wait, the better of quality we would get! Not just as a video output or an edit, but as a more objective and better judgment of the product that was presented to us. ✨🙌🏻 I loved the flashback scenes of younger you. 💚 Following you for that long made me feel like we really are in the future! O.o Oh, and that scoring scene!! New one mixed with the old one??? CHEF'S KISS!! 🤩👏🏻 It is an honour and a relief to finally see this day! Also, thank you for including me on your intro! I'm glad that my pun worked out! 😁 Much love and relieving light! ✨🤗✨
22:39 It was weird seeing the Nanomite upgrades for weapons not exist in the first game and instead having to upgrade them with Gold Bolts. I mainly started playing this game with the second entry onwards.
1:59 hey, that someone looks kinda familiar but, in all seriousness, Thank you for giving me this opportunity to be in the Video, , Jak I always have loved your videos ever since the Hawktober series
Hell yeah! Going Commando is my favorite Ratchet and Clank game! (Ratchet: Deadlocked/Gladiator is my second favorite game in the series). I hope You'll cover Deadlocked/Gladiator eventually!
2:32 It's me...again, great to cameo once again for you Jak, and if the chance comes up again, hopefully it's not something I spend an hour trying to find a copy of in my room for only to find it was in another room altogether. As New Game+ modes, I'd say it depends on your game, Resident Evil and Silent Hill always gave you extra but optional weapons that you can ignore if you want so you can have the plain experience still, but the fun comes from using those weapons to deal with enemies where before, it was use resources or try and evade the danger before it kills you, the rest of the game isn't changed otherwise. Where something like the Lego games with it's Free Play modes, they can feel pointless because at most, you're just going back to get the collectables you can't get in the regular version of the level because it doesn't give you the characters to get those items to simply encourage replaying, like Lego Star Wars having items which only move or activate with a Sith character like Darth Vader, or a Bounty Hunter like Boba Fett being needed to blow up a metallic object with a thermal detonator, or even needing both because they unlock areas locked off otherwise.
When it comes to the RYNO, it is something i enjoyed using a LOT when I was a kid. Because back then, I would usually get a new game every month or two. So, spending time grinding for the RYNO and then using it on the final boss, or new game + felt like a lot of fun back then!
29:08 Ey! There I am! Glad I could make the video after all! And congrats on 200 episodes! But yup, you ain't done with the game(s) yet. Get to the first trilogy first. Until then, have a great fucking day! Cheers to 200, and here's to 200 more!

What did you think of my LittleBigPlanet clip I made for this video?
@@MatthewCenance It was very cute thankyou! All of the submissions will be posted in a huge compilation at a later date so everyone can see all the creative stuff people made! 😄😄
Cool. Can't wait to see it later.
@@SquareEyedJak it's always a pleasure to show up
Everyone did great with their submissions
It's...ACTUALLY mind blowing to me this finally happened. I've discovered this gem of a channel back in 2017, and I've stuck around for nearly 8 years of this running joke to finally see come true
That whole infinite bolt glitch bit was flippin' hilarious!
Awesome video. Can't wait for Ratchet 2 and 3!
“So I FINALLY gave Ratchet and Clank a 7/10”
Yo man! 😂 I didn’t know you were a fellow square eyed jak fan. And yeah I thought that sounded a bit low at first but I feel like he may just be leaving room to be improved with the sequels.
0:39 There I am, Gary! There I am! :)
It was an honor to be featured in this special episode, and the wait was absolutely worth it!
Looking sexy my boy
now for the rest of the games and an every level ranked video. congrats on 200 episodes jack
Oh hey, that's my voice at the start!
Thank you so much Jak, it's an honor to be a part of such a special video! You've inspired me to do my own thing so I thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️
I was a bit shocked when you said you didn't like Captain Qwark. To me, he's one of, if not, the funniest characters in the game. He's like if Kronk from Emperor's New Groove was a douche. His voice actor made the character and a lot of his jokes even more enjoyable to watch
He's definitely a love-him-or-hate-him character like the Tick or Zap Brannigan lol
He became pretty unbearable after Deadlocked even though I did like his appearance in A Crack In Time.
Congrats on 200 episodes! Getting the whole trilogy reviewed this month is a huge surprise! Thanks for the early Christmas gift! I absolutely love ratchet and clank, it's my favorite series of the holy triangle of the PS2 so I'm excited to see what you have to say about the next two.

That guy at 1:20 in the video, he is certainly a handsome looking guy with two cool plushies! (BTW, that is me btw, hi everyone!)
2:01 Hey that’s me! Holy shit that clip was implemented in perfectly, super happy to be part of this incredible milestone.
same here. I'm honestly pretty happy about this milestone for one of my FAVORITE creators and being featured even if it was only for a brief "Blink and you'll miss it" moment
Fun fact a crack in time was the first PlayStation game i bought ans still love ot to this day and I think its 5he best ratchet game

Congratz on 200 mate! Huge milestone! And hey that guy had a point, undertale kind of a fire game too ;)
Congratulations on 200 episodes of Square-Eyed-Jak! This review was awesome! I am so looking forward to the other Ratchet and Clank reviews!
Really doesn’t feel like it’s been that long and still is consistent with your honesty in a review.
Glad to see you finally hitting this series! Ratchet 2 was when they really hit their stride, but the first game has a massive amount of charm and nostalgia

Holy damn, 200 episodes?
That is a monumental task and now it all pays off in the end!
From the crash bandicoot days in 2014, to your PlayStation move heroes review in 2018, and now the long awaited R&C review we always wanted to see!
Thanks jak for 200 episodes and the memories from the beginning.
Cheers!🎉
Litteraly stopped my army online OPSEC training to watch this. Yelled yah, and here I am before the video starts. Can you tell im hyped? 🎉
Your finally playing my favorite videogame ever made
Well played mate!
This is my favorite game! ❤🎮 I’m surprised you’re just getting around doing it!
man this was a long awaited great video shame it was just a 30 minute black screen see ya in a year or so for the sequel i guess
I can't watch this yet because i'm currently playing it for myself but i'll let it run and leave a comment because WOOOOO 200
Ohh boy, a square eyed trilogy? We're eating good this holiday season!
Been waiting Years for This!
Hell yeah, it's Ratchet time! And this video released a few days before my birthday too, what a delectable treat.
WOAH happy birthday!
@@SquareEyedJak Thanks man 😁
Been waiting for this one for nearly a decade, hope it’s worth the wait. Also there i am 1:99
FINALLY BRO. BEEN WAITING YEARS FOR THIS
Jak: (spends literal YEARS stalling before finally getting to Ratchet & Clank)
Audience: "What're you DOING?!"
Jak: "ImPrOvIsInG."
He did it. He actually did it. 😭
16:28 Its much more efficient to repeat the Giant Clank section in Quartu a bunch of times you can earn over 3.000 bots per minute.
You can do this glitch earlier since quartu is basically almost at the end of the game
@alex_-yz9to Yes, but it takes you less time to get to Quartu than doing this glitch xD
Its refreshing as you are playing this without playing the later ones so have no comparison. What id give to play this fame for the first time again.
Oh gods, the moment that music started playing as you insert the CD....I want to be 8 again, playing this and just...that music hits so hard
6:37 Wait, he found Ratchet in his house? Pretty exciting!!! 😂
Been waiting for so long for a review of the franchise. Thank you so much.
9 years ago I found your channel through that Spyro Enter the Dragonfly review. Where has the time gone?!
That bolt glitch is just absolutely essential if you want Trophies, because for whatever reason they decided you need to hold a million bolts
What the hell Jak? We were all talking about the 2016 REMAKE of Ratchet and Clank??? Disappointed 😞 😉
Come and buy a Pixelizer!
Meh
Eww. Why
@ it would be funny
Finally the mad man finally reviewed the game
On this day, history has been made. Rewritten. The ways of our mortal realm unravel before our very eyes. The laws of time and space lay shattered, and Ratchet and Clank reviewed.
3:36 that's it go for a flaming table 😂😂😂
great to know you'll be covering more then just the original first ratchet and clank game. can't wait to see the going commando video from you.
Heck yeah! One of my favorite series. The Taunter shouldn’t be considered a weapon but a gadget for breaking crates. I’m surprised you didn’t mention the lack of strafing. The mine glove is only useful in the fight against Drek in my opinion.
OMFG MY FAVORITE CHILDHOOD VIDEO GAME FRANCHISE ❤️
After 10 years, you finally have gotten around to the Ratchet & Clank series, it's about bloody time! Haha joking aside, it's awesome to see you finally get around to talking about the series and it was worth the wait. I can understand now why you didn't talk about the game since you personally didn't grow up with it per say like you did with Jak & Daxter and that's totally udnerstandable. Personally I started off with Ratchet & Clank and I was more or less glued to the first game and especially Going Commando before making my way to Jak through Jak , yeah my history with these two franchises is weird since I technically came in during their sequel installments right before their third games released. Point is, II totally undersand the situation as I was like that with Sly Cooper and didn't play those games until I was like 20-21 i
Anyway on Ratchet & Clank 2002, I have way too many fond memories of this game and it's always a nostalgia blast for me taking me back to the summer of 2003 and finishing it in 2004 (including when I was being bad and skipping some days of school to play the game lmao). This game was truly something special, it inspired me to go even further with my own drawing & art so I owe the series, especially the first 3 games a lot to my continuation of my art journey. I also loved the music in this game, David Bergeaud is an amazing composer! And while the OSTs for the later 2 games have more action-packed songs the really get the adrenaline pumping, I still think the OST in this game is the best one of the three because I love how experimental it is with how it played around with techno, electronic, (some) industrial, and funk, it's such a nice smorgasbord of sounds. Though make no mistake, the trilogy + Deadlocked have amazing soundtracks and I do prefer them all compared to the OSTs that would come in the next generation of R&C.
And I so feel that on the ifnal level, it really isaa ha hell of a challenge and yep, you'll more than likely spam the visibomb gun a lot here. I still remember feeling so tense making my way through the level as a kid sweating just what was around the corner. And the n the final boss battle, epic to say the least lol.
As for the R.Y.N.O. I didn't get it until ab out my third playrhrough of the game many years ago and I did it the old fashioned way as I had no idea about that cheat lol. So. Many. Hoverboard. Races. My god, never again even if the weapon is honestly pretty boss. I think the appeal really was for kids who could see just how overpowered the weapon was and 15 year old me was entertained but yeah, once you get it it can take the fun away when you can cheese through everything so I really don't use it much when I replay the game.
All in all, this was amazing and even though I'd probably give the game a higher score (yes, my nostalgia bias cannot be contained with this one lol), it was well worth the wait and I look forward to the next one! Happy 200th!
(And also thanks for the inclusion at 29:01 , apologies again for submitting it so late! 😅)
i seen him review others games throughout the years but i never thought of him ever reviewing this iconic franchise
Glad you finally tasted how good that game is. Back in the day I played the demobut had to wait until '04 to play it properly. Ratchet 3 is my favourite of the early trilogy.
I got this game bundled with my PS2 one Christmas and I really loved it, my mom never allowed me to play m rated games so I was allowed to play this one and it changed my life on a way. I remember I had a bad fever and I played this game and it just felt surreal and amazing, still have for this one
Congrats on 200 episodes Jak. Here's to another 200!
Cheers mate!
I honestly thought you had already reviewed those at some point, not gonna lie! I'm a fairly new sub. That being said, 200 episodes of games, many of which being from the PS2 era, for around a decade, and you haven't even touched the Ratchet and Clank series?
...well to be fair, outta the whole series, I only ever played Secret Agent Clank, much to my dismay, so y'know.
Hey! It was a lovely review! 🧡 One that many of us will keep close to our hearts! I loved the addition of Ratchet (and Clank)! I couldn't have imagine a more memorable pizazz!😁 I knew that the longer we wait, the better of quality we would get! Not just as a video output or an edit, but as a more objective and better judgment of the product that was presented to us. ✨🙌🏻 I loved the flashback scenes of younger you. 💚 Following you for that long made me feel like we really are in the future! O.o Oh, and that scoring scene!! New one mixed with the old one??? CHEF'S KISS!! 🤩👏🏻 It is an honour and a relief to finally see this day! Also, thank you for including me on your intro! I'm glad that my pun worked out! 😁 Much love and relieving light! ✨🤗✨
22:39 It was weird seeing the Nanomite upgrades for weapons not exist in the first game and instead having to upgrade them with Gold Bolts. I mainly started playing this game with the second entry onwards.
1:59 hey, that someone looks kinda familiar
but, in all seriousness, Thank you for giving me this opportunity to be in the Video, , Jak
I always have loved your videos ever since the Hawktober series
Hell yeah! Going Commando is my favorite Ratchet and Clank game! (Ratchet: Deadlocked/Gladiator is my second favorite game in the series). I hope You'll cover Deadlocked/Gladiator eventually!
Surreal seeing you reviewing this, nevertheless cheers on going strong with this channel mate!
2:32 It's me...again, great to cameo once again for you Jak, and if the chance comes up again, hopefully it's not something I spend an hour trying to find a copy of in my room for only to find it was in another room altogether.
As New Game+ modes, I'd say it depends on your game, Resident Evil and Silent Hill always gave you extra but optional weapons that you can ignore if you want so you can have the plain experience still, but the fun comes from using those weapons to deal with enemies where before, it was use resources or try and evade the danger before it kills you, the rest of the game isn't changed otherwise.
Where something like the Lego games with it's Free Play modes, they can feel pointless because at most, you're just going back to get the collectables you can't get in the regular version of the level because it doesn't give you the characters to get those items to simply encourage replaying, like Lego Star Wars having items which only move or activate with a Sith character like Darth Vader, or a Bounty Hunter like Boba Fett being needed to blow up a metallic object with a thermal detonator, or even needing both because they unlock areas locked off otherwise.
AWESOME VIDEO DUDE
When it comes to the RYNO, it is something i enjoyed using a LOT when I was a kid.
Because back then, I would usually get a new game every month or two.
So, spending time grinding for the RYNO and then using it on the final boss, or new game + felt like a lot of fun back then!
29:08 Ey! There I am! Glad I could make the video after all! And congrats on 200 episodes! But yup, you ain't done with the game(s) yet. Get to the first trilogy first.
Until then, have a great fucking day! Cheers to 200, and here's to 200 more!
Hell yeah ratchet 3 is my fav can’t wait for the next parts
Finally! My man finally reviewed the game we’ve all been wanting to do!
Congrats!
Hey congrats on the milestone been watching since 2015.
Legend!
