			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Good news for those of you anxiously awaiting the new <em>Ratchet and Clank</em> game for the PlayStation 3. Insomniac Games has confirmed that the game will run at a full 60 frame per second speed, in both 720p and 1080i resolutions.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/ratchet_clank_future_box.jpg" alt="Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction Box" /></p>
<p>Regardless of any controversy surrounding the PS3&#8217;s ability to crank out fast frame rates, Insomniac seems to be on top of it, saying that all their upcoming PS3 titles will run at a full 60 fps. Clearly, the fact that they got to cut their teeth on the platform&#8217;s outstanding first-gen <em>Resistance: Fall of Man</em> gave them a leg up over other developers.</p>
<p>One other interesting tidbit about <em>Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction</em> is just how enormous the game is. Apparently, the game will use up a 22GB of the total 25GB capacity of its Blu-ray disc. I&#8217;m sure that part of that space is taken up with high-def FMV cutscenes, but from what I&#8217;ve seen, the massive environments and detailed textures will chew up a substantial portion. For those of you keeping score, you&#8217;d need three nearly full dual-layer DVD discs to fit this entire game on any other console. Maybe Blu-ray wasn&#8217;t a bad move after all?</p>
<p>You won&#8217;t have to wait long to check it out for yourself. A demo of the game should hit the online PlayStation Store on October 4th, with the full game in stores just about a month from now, on October 23rd.</p>

<p>On October 4, 2007, expect a demo to hit the PlayStation Network for download. Word has it that the demo will give players a sneak-peak of the game&#8217;s opening level, starting with the obliteration of Metropolis, a location very familiar to PS2 players.</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t tell you how excited I am for this title, given how many hours of fun I had with the PlayStation 2 titles.</p>
