Best Dynamic Duos in Gaming

Is there another duo in gaming whose name just rolls off the tongue so perfectly? Ratchet and Clank aren’t just fun to say, though, as the pair combine for some wonderful platforming and hilarious banter. Recently revived in glorious HD on the PS4, Ratchet and Clank reminded us once again what a formidable partnership they are. One headstrong, the other calculated and measured, they combine to produce a memorable and charming rough-and-tumble friendship that has spawned countless sequels, spin-offs, and more recently, a motion picture.

The personalities of both characters actually evolve somewhat throughout the series. Ratchet is always the adventurous teen-dude, but he becomes less stroppy and selfish in subsequent games. Notably, the dynamic between the two was reworked somewhat in the latest remaster of the first game. There’s less conflict this time around, more bouncing off each other, rather than clashing. It’s a more palatable meshing together — the bold and energetic Ratchet and the intelligent dry wit of Clank really gell in their latest (and arguably greatest) performance.
