Fembots Aplenty in Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal

Post by Kriegsaffe No. 9 » Tue Jan 25, 2005 6:39 pm

Aside from being a fantastic and hilarious game, Ratchet and Clank: Up Your Arsenal has a number of fembots, including one of the main antagonists, Courtney Gears, a Britney Spears parody.

There's a hilarious cutscene where she sings a cheery pop song about the annihilation of all organic life. It's the cheeriest song about genocide I've ever heard, trumping even "Let's Drop the Big One Now."

Slight spoiler: You also have to fight her at around the game's midpoint. She hides out in a dancer cage at first, tossing plasma scythes while her backup dancers spin around like tops (their heads staying in place), using plasma blades on thier legs to peel away your health. Mind, her ultimate defeat elicits only a "Noooo... my fan's can't live without me!" and a lopsided collapse, as opposed to a showy breakdown.
Though, it does elicit a humorous response from Clank: "One disposable pop star... disposed."

Much larger spoiler: The robotic main foe, Dr. Nefarious, plans to use a Biobliterator item to turn all organic life into robots. "Not that it's that bad, or anything..." apologizes Ratchet, but kick his ass you must. Courtney Gears manages to turn Skidd, a reptilian partner of yours, into a robot--a clanking automaton that utters "Destroy all squishies, d00d..." in a monotone voice. Mind, he also uses this device on the city of Metropolis on Earth, AND on all his Tyrhanoid henchmen, jacking their hit points up so that they're harder to kill.

If you've got a PS2, I'd reccomend picking it up. The female characters tend to be furry aliens, outside of Courtney Gears of course, so there's little else to glean fembot-wise from the game. However, it's damn fun, and consistently hilarious. And, uh, hard. But, on the upshot, you have infinite lives and grow stronger the more monsters you kill. So, even if you can't figure out a strategy for certain portions, you can keep going at it, getting more cash and experience until you are strong enough to blast your way through.

Oh, and it's a platform game, not an RPG; it just has "RPG elements" in the form of levelling weapons and ever-increasing hit points.

The official game website has a Courtney Gears music video. It's alright, nothing spectacular.
