When Insomniac announced the co-op focused Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One at Gamescom last month, we were all thinking the same thing: How did the series with the clever titles – Going Commando; Up Your Arsenal; Size Matters; Quest for Booty – miss out on the most obvious title here?
4play. Duh.
It turns out the guys at Insomniac didn’t miss it, they just decided not to use it. “At the end of the day, I think we didn’t want to scare off the parents who might be buying the game for their kid,” series writer TJ Fixman told an audience at PAX this weekend. “So we went with ‘All 4 One.'” Better still, they had other names, four of which they shared with us last night and, since we heart you, we’ll share with you here.
- Multiple Organisms
- Bros b4 Foes (Community Manager James Stevenson clarified the ‘b4’ spelling)
- Fiends with Benefits
Even better, we were later told there’s a spreadsheet with over a hundred possible titles on it but, without that in our possession (send it to us, Insomniac!) we’ve got to do the next best thing. We’re asking for your contributions in the comments below. But before you get to that, we’re going to ask you to vote for your favorite title in the poll below. Our guess: “All 4 One” isn’t going to make the top spot.
