Ratchet & Cranky

R&C_Dead Clank
CJ tells me that we’ve been getting an awful lot of angry voice mails this week in regards to my discussion about Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time during the What Ya Been Playing segment in episode 160.

While talking about the game, I mention that I recently finished it (which I totally did). I then proceed to “ruin” the game for the other guys by giving away the “spoiler” that Clank sacrifices his life in order to save Ratchet, thus providing the final, tragic end to the Ratchet & Clank series.

This offending remark occurs at about the 1:00:35 mark, and boy howdy did some people get steamed. Apparently these folks turned off the episode in a huff before they heard me reveal that I was kidding about the whole thing a few seconds later (~1:00:52).

No, people, I’m not going to blurt out the ending for a new game without some sort of warning. I’m not that big of a jerk.

So there you go, everyone. You can stop writing those strongly-worded e-mails and leaving those angry voice mail messages. Of course, if you’re leaving the voice mails by using the fantastic one-touch voice mail technology made possible with the official Player One Podcast iPhone App (buy it today!), then feel free to call and be as pissy as you’d like.

In short–It was a joke, people! I said as much! Clank doesn’t die at the end of Crack in Time!

…OR DOES HE?!?!?

    I thought it would have been hysterical if he actual DID sacrifice himself at the end of the game and you didn’t know it.

    *spoiler alert* At the end of New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Mario saves Princess Peach.

    Oh great Phil, now we know that Clank lives. Is there any point playing now?

    F*** you Drew! I was about to sit down and play NSMBW but now since you spoiled it I guess I’ll just throw the disk in the garbage and listen to this weeks Playeronepodcast instead.
