Ah, the days of memory cards.

I Remember playing Ratchet & Clank Going Commando on the PS2 when I was younger and not turning off the console for days because I didn’t have a memory card at the time and I didn’t want to lose my progress #RatchetAndClank #Playstation #PS2 #Gaming https://t.co/WN5hZhjhFw

That new game is the reason some are buying a PS5 this year.

Ratchet & Clank was a huge part of my childhood and teenage years. They helped me develop a sense of humor when I was young and get away from the bad times. Can’t wait to see what Ratchet & Clank have in store for us in Rift Apart! I got my PS5 pre ordered! @insomniacgames https://t.co/nYbZxD0UDE pic.twitter.com/GnBx5CA6b2
