History YMMV / RatchetAndClankFutureACrackInTime

** The penultimate fight against Dr. Nefarious is on par with your previous confrontation with him in ''[[VideoGame/RatchetAndClankUpYourArsenal Up Your Arsenal]]'', and ranks as one of the best boss fights in the entire series. Its a truly thrilling, breakneck paced three phase fight where Nefarious throws everything he's got at you and more, with combat (and some hoverboot segments) that ''will'' keep you on your toes, even with the [[GameBreaker R.Y.N.O. V]] on hand.
** And immediately following that is the climatic final boss fight against [[spoiler:Azimuth.]] Its a tense one on one battle where you have to fight tooth and claw and use everything in your arsenal to bring him down, all while the Great Clock is falling apart around you. No gimmicks, no other enemies summoned, just pure teeth clenched combat as you fight to determine the fate of all existence. Its basically the [[Film/RevengeOfTheSith "Anakin Vs. Obi Wan"]] moment of the entire franchise, and its a truly challenging yet extremely fun ClimaxBoss.

* GameBreaker: The R.Y.N.O. V continues the series tradition of ridiculously overpowered bonus weapons by being an oversized machine gun and missile launcher mashed together, capable of eviscerating any enemy and any boss outside of Nefarious and [[spoiler:Azimuth.]] in seconds. It even turns the extremely hard final challenge of the Raritanium Tournament into a cakewalk. And best of all, it upgrades as you fire it on bosses, meaning you can max it out just minutes after acquiring it! The only downside is that it chews up ammo insanely fast, and you can't acquire all the holo plans for it until just before you fight Dr. Nefarious. On the other hand, you can start [[NewGamePlus Challenge Mode]] right afterward...

* ThatOneSidequest: Beating the Raritanium tournament in the Agorian Battleplex, with the climatic challenge being the hardest part of the game. Its 18 waves of dozens of tough enemies that do not let up on you, health drops are very scarce, and its topped with two more waves consisting of a back to back fight between the War Grok and a Hydra Tank. Unless you acquire the [[GameBreaker R.Y.N.O. V]] (which lets you cheese the whole event as long as you stay on your toes and constantly refill its ammo on the run), do ''not'' attempt this challenge without the Hydroflex armor and a heavily upgraded arsenal.

* UnderusedGameMechanic: The Constructo Weapons are a great idea and fun to use, but the problem is simply that they didn't go far enough with it. With only three Constructo Weapons and 21 upgrades to find total for all of them, theres not all that much variety to them or their functions, and the upgrades aren't particularly balanced either, meaning you'll clearly favor some upgrades over others.

* ThatOneLevel: Krell Canyon has a part during the first stage where Ratchet must move two platforms over a bottomless pit to bypass a tetromite nest. Unfortunately, it is very possible for the tetromites to reach the other side and wait for Ratchet to leap over to them, making it almost impossible to reach water before his HP reaches zero.

** Cassiopeia at the Valkyrie Citadel. Her attacks are easy to dodge and she has mediocre stamina. Even on hard mode, she won't give you too much trouble.

** Any fight with a Hydra Tank. While you can mow down their health quickly with the right weapon,

* BreatherBoss: Cassiopeia at the Valkyrie Citadel. Her attacks are easy to dodge and she has mediocre stamina. Even on hard mode, she won't give you too much trouble.

* RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap: The Buzz Blades, which were [[ScrappyWeapon one of the worst weapons]] in ''[[VideoGame/RatchetAndClankFutureToolsOfDestruction Tools of Destruction]]'' due to its abysmal damage rate, pops up again as a much more useful weapon here since its damage properties are much higher off the bat. It becomes a real lifesaver in Hard Mode, too. The only downside is its low ammo, but that gets mitigated with upgrades.

* ThatOneSidequest: Beating the Raritanium tournament in the Agorian Battleplex, with the climatic challenge being the hardest part of the game. Its 20 waves of dozens of tough enemies that do not let up on you, ammo is scarce, and its topped with a tag team fight between the War Grok and a Hydra Tank. Do ''not'' attempt this challenge without the Hydroflex armor and a heavily upgraded arsenal.

** The Grok arena fights aren't particularly difficult, but they require fast reflexes and a lot of patience due to its [[DamageSpongeBoss high stamina]], especially during the fight where you fight it with only your wrench. The fight where it tag teams between it and a Hydra Tank can be frustrating, too.

* GoddamnedBoss: The VX-99 Hoverdrone that you fight in Axiom City. Its not a hard fight, but it can be annoying due to it constantly spamming lasers and pulling some cheap and hard to dodge manuevers on you.

* MoralEventHorizon: [[spoiler: Alister Azimuth ''kills Ratchet'' at the end of the game. Shortly afterward, he becomes the final boss and nearly destroys the entire universe. However, since Ratchet's death is undone by Clank and Alister finally sees the error of his ways, sacrificing himself to prevent the destruction of the universe he almost brought upon it, fans generally don't consider him too far-gone to be denied [[RedemptionEqualsDeath posthumous redemption]].]]

** Solution: Qwark was also filming ''Unicop'' in-between the two games. It might have been filmed first, while ''My Blaster Runs Hot'' was filmed afterwards. This would make sense, considering the amount of time and costs it would take to finish ''Unicop'' because Qwark plays a unicorn in the film, while he's just playing himself in ''My Blaster Runs Hot', so there's a good reason who the latter was released, first.

* HarsherInHindsight: After you've seen [[spoiler:Azimuth go nuts and kill Ratchet in his quest to rewind time]], his unceasing ranting throughout the game suddenly sounds much more unhinged than it did on your first playthrough.

* FridgeBrilliance: In the Recap cinematic, Captain Qwark stated his reason for not being present in ''Quest For Booty'', and that was for shooting for a new holo-film. However, Captain Slag and Rusty Pete both had parts in the film as well, and they both had significant roles in ''QFB''. How could they manage the time to film alongside Qwark as well?
