After recently being announced that Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction had gone Gold, and was to be released on the 30th of October, after some good luck in the production process, it’s been announced that most stores already have copies of the game, and have chosen to release the game for sale next week (which is fine, says Sony).
