Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando is a 2003 3D platformer video game developed by [[Insomniac Games]]. The gameplay of ''Going Commando'' is similar to that of the original ''Ratchet & Clank''. The player explores planets in the "Bogon" Galaxy and undertakes missions. It contains more mini-games than were present in the previous game. The game also introduces role-playing game (RPG) elements, such as upgradeable weapons. ''Going Commando'' was released roughly a year after its predecessor, and received very positive reviews. Critics noted the game's improved graphics, longer gameplay, and added role-playing elements as being major improvements over the original, but also criticized the game for its very high difficulty.

|Comments=BIOS: USA 2.00. Played at full speed. Opaque background to menus, but it's worth it to stay in hardware mode. Crashed once when a level was being loaded, but it was after hours of play. The game auto-saves before this. Anisotropic Filtering is optional.

|Comments=Game is very demanding. Occasionally slows down with EE Cyclerate 0, but setting to -1 activates the game's internal frameskipping. This may make the game play better but YMMV, it slows some sections down to a crawl. Solid background menus are fine, since other than that and some minor lighting glitches, the game looks great.

|Comments= I had zero game breaking issues with Going Commando and I played it all the way through completion. Zero crashes and zero visual bugs (other than the menu screen ofc). I DID have minor fps drops at the very start of my playthrough, but that went away on it's own and I never had them again. Might have been some weird nightly build regression or something. Anyway that was only for the first hour, the rest of my hours were near perfect.

|Description=R&C: GC runs at low framerates in combat.
|Workaround=If you're experiencing low frames, try enabling MTVU under Settings > System which as of writing is default turned OFF. If this isn't enough try switching to the Vulkan renderer (Under Graphics > Renderer).

|Description=After disabling the Thugs-4-less jamming array, only the audio from the following cutscene is loaded. The next cutscene doesn't load at all and the game is stuck on a black screen.
|Description=After certain cut-scenes (e.g. the final Siberius cut-scene) the game will slow down to 50% normal speed.
|Workaround=Is resolved in recent PCSX2 v1.5.0 git builds as long as "Automatic Gamefixes" is enabled. For older versions go to Config > Emulation Settings > Game Fixes tab, click "Enable manual game fixes" and enable the "EE timing hack" fix.
|Workaround=Restart PCSX2. Saving works correctly when running at 50% speed.
