THE BUZZ: Sony has officially announced the Ratchet and Clank HD Collection after various retail listings let the Lombax out of the bag.

The bundle will include Ratchet & Clank, Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando and Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal, all with remastered HD visuals. The game will run at 1080p, but will also have stereoscopic 3D support at 720p.

Three sets of trophies will be included and each game has a Platinum trophy to obtain. Ratchet and Clank HD is set to release May in the U.K. and is currently scheduled for fall in the U.S.

Ratchet and Clank: Up Your Arsenal’s competitive multiplayer is also included in the HD Collection.

EGM’s TAKE: Yet another HD collection for you all to enjoy. But please Sony, what has a man got to do to get a HD re-release for old Crash Bandicoot! He is only one of the most popular characters on the PlayStation, way more popular than Ratchet and Clank or Jak and Daxter, so where’s the love? That little orange mammal would look so good in HD.
