Despite only selling 74,500 units since release in North America and posting similarly low figures across Europe, Sony are apparently content with the first-month sales of Ratchet and Clank Future on the PS3.

"SCEA is very happy with the initial sales numbers of Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction," said a Sony representative.

"In a crowded market of mature content, Ratchet is a fun, sophisticated alternative that truly showcases the power of the PS3. Ratchet is the perfect gift for PlayStation fans of all ages and we expect sales to continue to remain strong."
