In my first few hours with the game, I found Up Your Arsenal to be nothing more than a disappointing entry in an otherwise strong franchise, as it seemed to have removed more features rather than improved upon what had been set up by its predecessors. However, it didn't take long for the game to change my mind.

Up Your Arsenal features some of the best, well, features that the franchise has ever seen. From the action, platforming, weapons, and many many more!

Although platforming has been relegated to being an optional obstacle that the player has to go through as multiple routes have been removed, this game features some of the most challenging platforming in the trilogy.

And just when I thought Going Commando had finally managed to make the Clank segments finally fun, here comes Up Your Arsenal which makes those segments even more enjoyable to play through. It's a shame, though, that the puzzles remains as mind numbingly terrible.

Although, of course, Going Commando still had more features, I do think that Up Your Arsenal is slightly better than what came before it due to its sheer enjoyment.
