PrinceWatercress plays Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando - Part 30 of 54

In this entry, we head to Boldan to look for Mr. Fizzwidget, but Thugs-4-Less are lying in wait for us...

First | Previous | Next | End

1:24 - As soon as we head to Boldan, we find out that Megacorp is the higher bidder, and that they have been hired to protect Mr. Fizzwidget due to recent safety concerns regarding the man. Also, not surprisingly, they're coming after us.

2:51 - New weapon! The Hoverbomb Gun allows you to fire a single floating bomb with the Circle button, and if you press Circle again, it explodes and takes out anyone dumb enough to be near the explosion. As cool as it is, just wait until it's evolved.

3:57 - Fun with the Levitator. This will allow us to open up a shortcut leading back to our ship, but we're going up the stairs once we do that.

4:59 - The floor panels are protective against the enemies. The Bouncer is a pretty good weapon to use here. Also, the little red chomper robots split into two smaller clones when you do enough damage to them, and you'll have to get rid of the clones as well.

7:09 - Use the Spiderbot to hit the switch and get this Platinum Bolt. 

9:12 - Don't forget to take the Nanotech Boost at the top of the fountain on the way there!

13:22 - Keep jumping and shooting on this elevator with the Bouncer in order to make getting rid of the enemies ahead easier. Afterward, use the cover to get to the next elevator.

17:12 - Two vendors! Here, you can buy the Duraplate Armor, which shields all the damage you take by 50%.

18:13 - You'll now be walking on the sides of buildings with the Gravity Boots while platforms open up revealing more enemies. The Synthenoids will be your friends here, especially when you get to the door leading to that trippy spiral floor you'll have to cross carefully.

19:35 - The Megaturret Glove will take care of the ground targets. 

21:41 - Two for one with the Vaporizer!

25:46 - At the end is an obvious robot Fizzwidget...and Thugs-4-Less, who use this to charge us fake charges of trying to assassinate the real Mr. Fizzwidget in order to send us to their own flying prison on Aranos.

27:31 - The female robot from earlier is back to help us escape. How she managed to get on the ship, one can only guess.
