So I tried to combine the audio of the short music video in the game with the battle version to make a full song out of it, and this is how it turned out. Picture: www.artstation...
What always got me was Courtney had huge potential to be a mainstay character. She was a great villain and her fight was actually challenging. Wouldn't mind if she returned as a main antagonist. But if she ever returns, the original VA needs to return
I hope she's in Rift Apart somewhere, I mean it would make sense given she's involved with Nefarious and this does have alternate timelines. Would be cool to see an alt version of her anyway.
@@brent8407 no, she was alive, they helped her get back on her feet during the events of Deadlocked/Gladiator, it was confirmed she survived a "Horrific attack by two psychotic fans" that meaning ratchet and clank's attack on the Obani moons, but yeah, she survived, she got her career back, and is a bit of a gold digger now.
@@michaeleich8470 the "remaster" is not a remaster, the word Insomniac uses is "reimagining". it's a fanciful retelling of the original story of Ratchet & Clank 1 specifically from the perspective of Qwark, which is why it's so outlandishly different (and absolutely terrible) from the original.
Super-awesome! This is so damn catchy ... I didn't understand what the song was about when I played this 10+ years ago, but the lyrics are a little dark for us squishies now that I understand it.
This is really well edited, if it weren't for the sound quality changes (I know that can't be fixed cuz it was recorded like 14 years ago) I honestly wouldn't be able to tell. Great job
I started 11th grade in the Fall of 2004. Two things happened this fall. Though still going on plenty strong enough to piss me off we were finally in the aftermath of the "Brittany Craze" and "Up Your Arsenal" was released. During this Fall I told my friend "The next person I hear singing 'One More Time' I'm punching and getting Suspended again like last year. He laughed and said "Calm down until this weekend and come over to my house, I've got your therapy." He introduced me to this franchise/game and Courtney. It was glorious. I have never laughed so hard at something or received such immediate relief from something like I did after the first time I fought Courtney. Because of this R&C will always be my favorite franchise and INSOMNIAC my favorite studio. This video turned out well Vive, It's nice to see people other than me still remember Courtney. Best antagonist ever!
One disposable popstar disposed - Clank (clunk) chuckles to himself. Listening to this song again reminds me of my childhood, and the rage I endured trying to beat her XD, love this boss fight, almost as much as I love the character or Courtney Gears.
I imagine something like this happening on Codename: Kids Next Door. If they had another season featuring the Galactic Kids Next Door. The only difference is they would replace "robots" with "children", "organics" with "adults and "soft and squishy" with "old and cranky".
I also imagine this on Ninjago. My difference is that "robots" is replaced with "Nindroids" and "organics" with "The Ninja", but I'm not sure what to replace "soft and squishy" with.
I love that when Dance with Ciurtney Gears plays, it perfectly encompasses the musical image of Ratchet and Courtney dancing and fighting for control of who gets to lead the dance, Courrtney starts and keeps it for most of it until ratchet eventually starts to grab a footgold and take his turn with the lead, only for Courtney to taie it right back witth her melody
Would you mind explaining me exactly how it’s a parody? I take it’s different from “they took inspiration from Britney”. In what way are the satirizing Britney, and also why? She did nothing wrong and was the victim of the music industry
I've heard many great OST during my childhood gaming years, but this has to be the best I ever heard. I would kill to have an official song for this OST
Dang, Ratchet & Clank 3 is one of my all-time favourite games, period. And it's supposed to be the worst of the franchise? This isn't the first time I've heard someone say that.
The entire Ratchet series captures my heart. I'm in my mid 20s now and the sting to play them all again has hit me, I'm working my way through all the ones I have (1, 2, 3, Deadlocked, Tools Of Destruction and Crack In Time). I love the extended version of this, you've definitely earned my sub. Keep it up man!!
listen, I was a dumb kid and thought this theme was lame as fuck or "too girly" or whatever. Now I realize how actually impressive the variety of music David Bergeaud was able to give to this franchise. THIS THEME SLAPS
Yeah, one has to be a little older to really understand the irony and satire of the song. It's meant to be the over-the-top pop song about taking over the world that it is.
If they ever make a new ratchet and clank game (which they totally should), Courtney should definitely return. In the 3rd game, the very first moment she appeared on screen, I fell in love with her immediately. Her being a robotic version of Britney Spears is awesome and I adore her as a character. The boss fight with her was very fun and unique. Not to mention, she's kinda hot. She has massive potential to be an awesome character. Fingers crossed.....
Its a great story from start to finish, every step an entire character development for most characters. Skid became an agent. Ratchet became a soldier. Clank became an Operative. In the first game, Ratchet develops sympathy for the galaxy, and Clank becomes human. That last line might strike harder considering the third game; he simply wasn't apart of the robot agenda. I get emotional thinking about how intricately the political satire and storytelling speak truth.
@@davidciple4581 I had to look up a video for that. Like the "Jak and Daxter" series I never played the "Sly Cooper" series. But yeah, something more like that instead of a standard style boss fight.
LOL funny enough it would be a HUGE dream if someone synced clips of Vexus to Courtney Gears 'Death to Squishies' song....if only someone could do that it would be sooo awesome (especially since I know this song fits Vexus to a tee)
Devs: OK we need a catchy pop song. One that's under the radar. Not too memorable. *20 years later in 2024* Me: Who let them cook so hard?😩😩😩❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
uhh I disagree, I think the only game in the series that had a good story was ACiT, even still that story was very flawed. I think what you mean is that back then the game had more charm and character, in that you would be correct.
Someone kinda has! Still mostly instrumentals but there’s a few more unique verses. It’s by GaMetal, I usually listen to it on spotify but it should be findable on youtube

Wasn't she implied to be dead after the fight?

I don't think a main villain but definitely brought back. She's awesome.
Unironically, an absolute bop.

Literally the best version on TH-cam. I wish the original 4 games were on PS4.

@@michaeleich8470 rift apart isnt a direct sequel to the 2016 game
You can play it on ps5
I hope she'll make a come-back one day
I think she actually did in deadlocked it like said she recovered in one of the cutscenes
Hopefully in rift apart she will but then again, I would have seen her in the trailer
Yeah. Hopefully she’ll be in more than just cameos for the games

hahaha well that was the idea to spoof the Britney craze and also unleash this pop techno space song if her music crossed into the Ratchet universe.
Ratchet: Let’s See if you can Fight better than you can Sing!
I vote for this to be the AI theme for when they kill us
yes. 😂😂
best version of this on YT thanks

This is a great representation of how the music industry sees and treats its artists….
One disposable character turned into a great villain ♥️
Did anyone else become a man after first seeing Courtney Gears back in 2004 or was it just me?
S A M E . . .
12 Year old me definitely felt something hit different.
eh. she's a robot lol. More like seeing Jessica Alba in fantastic four. That...... that was my "awakening" lmfao
@friedrich Mertens yup haha lots of britney easter eggs
✋😐
Who would have thought a side character like Courtney Gears would end up being so iconic.
Best "full version" mix on TH-cam. Well done, really like this one. Especially the end sounds amazing
For some reason i’m really feeling this track
This song is such a special memory from my childhood. Top 3 videogame boss battle themes.

I only played Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart, but if Ratchet & Clank 3 is remake, I want to enjoy the boss battle with this thrilling song.❤
R&C 3 should not be remade cause Insomniac is going to screw it up .. they lost that magic and what made R&C games special a long long time ago now
You mean if they remake the best Ratchet and Clank game ever made?

She invented PC music queen of pop
This makes me want to power up my playstation 3 and do a full run through the first three games.
Ratchet and Clank is God Tier for me! Courtney Gears is next to Dr. Nefarious for being my favorite villain.

Excellent job! xD This song is too catchy and funny not to have a full version of it.

This better be the theme song for when humanity evolves technology past the point where we should and they attempt to usurp us
fantastic work on this, loved this when i was a kid and still do now hahah
I wish she returned in Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart and seen the other dimension’s Courtney Gears
I can hear and feel the effort in this. Very well done.
Everyone this is what good music sounds like
Sounds a little crazy, but I feel like she’s be perfect for Mitchell’s vs the Machines
I don’t even play ratchet and clank but this song goes hard
(Smiling while I'm shaking my head and looking down for a few seconds) MAN I FUCKIN' LOVE RATCHET AND CLANK.
This is bangers bro holy fuck
I have never seen such a great re-edit of a song in my life. Insomniac should remaster the song and get you involved tbh. You have talent and skill!
Although the years go by it is still a tremendous song lol
"I tried"
Wtf ?!
Not tried, just a success bro 👌😎✌
Thanks 💜

I've been trying to find this song for a lot years... I found it my god!!!

Hi and when you want-can make this super amazing ost you made a 30 minutes extension please all people in the comments wait that me too.
Omg, I remember fighting her as a kid
Still slaps
can't let gang know I fw this
Why is this such a bop hahah
im pretty sure ive ehard this exact thing approximately ten percent faster... wonder who uploaded that
I have always liked this song ever since I heard it. I played this game with my cousins as a kid and we all laughed! This game was funny.
Why do I think that if Insomniac asked her, Britney Spears would have been down to be Courtney, complete the parody...
Amazing work!
Looking back I almost think that the Courtney Gears boss fight should of been rhythm based, kind of like DDR or Space Channel 5.
Apparently, It was actually going to be, but the dev team ran out of time.
Rhythm base like in the first Sly cooper game against crocodile 🐊

If I don’t know better. I think Ms. Gears is in league with Dr. Nefarious.
I like how at one point the music becomes slightly distorted. It makes you feel like despite her appearance, something is very wrong with this one.
Still remembering this from time to time
Might be crazy, but isn't this song called "Robot's of the Galaxy"?
Thank you a lot ^^
Proly sure automatons are listening to this wile trying to stop us in our democratic mission
Man, this needs to be a real song, I hate Courtney Gears.. but she has a pretty good hit song

I guess Kanye West is the Irl version of Courtney Gears now.
Where's X and Zero when you need them? She has clearly gone maverick.
Groovitron would have no effect on her
groovitron replnishes her health (that would be sick)
Plot twist she is the groovitron..
