Subject: Ratchet & Clank: Into The Nexus (originally Into The Nether Regions) announced for PS3!
Playstation Blog wrote:Since completing the Ratchet & Clank Future saga (Tools of Destruction, Quest For Booty, and A Crack in Time) we’ve had a really amazing time expanding the universe of our intergalactic heroes. From creating the first four-player co-op Ratchet & Clank experience for the whole family to enjoy with All 4 One, to returning with the first all-new R&C competitive mode in Full Frontal Assault, we’ve challenged ourselves to bring new types of play to the Ratchet series.
At the same time, we love single-player Ratchet adventures. We’ve continued to generate new ideas for weapons, gadgets, and planets. It feels like the time is right to revisit Ratchet’s personal story arc.
We’re excited to announce that Ratchet and Clank are returning this year with an all new original single-player epilogue to the Future games. Under the creative direction of Tools of Destruction and A Crack in Time creative director Brian Allgeier, Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexus is a story-driven platform adventure, with the humor and heart that make the franchise so beloved.
As you can see from the trailer, Into the Nexus has a bunch of crazy new weapons and gadgets. Gravity is one of the themes of Into the Nexus: you’ll experience zero-g space, you’ll use gravity-defying new gadgets, and you’ll manipulate gravity to solve brand new Clank puzzles.
The game will be available exclusively on PS3 this holiday, in stores and on PlayStation Network for an MSRP of $29.99. It’s our biggest downloadable Ratchet & Clank game yet, dwarfing the size of both Quest For Booty and Full Frontal Assault. We’ll be bringing you more news soon – and for exclusive preview coverage of the game be sure to check out IGN’s preview and initial thoughts.
Awwwwwwwwww Yeaaaaaaaaah.
Also, lots of talk of other dimensions and the Lombaxes and this being an epilogue to the future trilogy makes me think we might actually see them at some point, finally.
I really should grab the other games. The only Future games I have are Tools of Destruction and Quest for Booty. What are the others - A Crack in Time and All 4 One?

I'/m glad that they realized they really needed to change that title.
Never really been a huge Ratchet and Clank fan though.

The people in the past who convinced themselves to do unspeakable things were no less human than you or I. They made their decisions; the only thing that prevents history from repeating itself is making different ones.

It's games like Ratchet and Clank that make me want to get a PS3, I loved some of the earlier games on the PS2 (So many hours lost to Ratchet Gladiator )

In order of release: A Crack in Time (my favourite ps3 game), All 4 One, Q-Force/Full Frontal Assault(the name is different expending on where you live)
I have fond memories of the very first ratchet and clank. Unfortunately i don't own a ps3, and as such have never played any of the games launched on that console :(
