Deadlocked is the fourth installment in the Rachet & Clank series, once again released by previous Rachet & Clank makers, Insomniac Games studios.

The game's story begins as Ratchet, Clank, and Al are abducted and forced to compete in "Dreadzone", a violent game show in which heroes are forced to kill each other. Ratchet is given a "DeadLock" collar, which will explode if he becomes uncooperative. Ratchet defeats Dreadzone's most successful gladiators, the exterminators, and becomes one of Dreadzone's most popular contestants. The three must find a way to deactivate the collars, and free the other heroes being held prisoner.

Being a fan of the Rachet & Clank series, i played this one with vigor. Immediately i noticed the darker tone Deadlocked had as well as the primarily combat aspect of the game with emphasis on gladiatorial style of fighting. Nonetheless, i still found the game quite enjoyable and gives the thrill of winning despite being ridiculously outnumbered.
