10 Genius Fourth Wall Breaks In 2016 Video Games

10. Ratchet & Clank - The Next Reboot

2016 saw the return of charming Ratchet and his sidekick, multi-tool partner, Clank. Lovingly recreated and reimagined in HD for the PS4, the makeover was well received by long time fans and newcomers alike, earning a whopping 85 rating on Metacritic, with user reviews to match.

Along with our blaster wielding heroes, our favourite handyman returned. Whilst simply known as The Plumber, this jack-of-all-trades has appeared throughout games in the series fixing all sorts of mechanical problems, often whilst offering rather unusual advice at the same time.

With mentions of previous encounters that only he can remember, and an uncanny ability to predict the future, The Plumber's omnipresence is hinted at time and again - but it is his tendency to break the fourth wall that stands him out as one of the most humorous repeat characters, when, on parting ways with our heroes, he waves and throws out the casual remark,

"See you in the next reboot."
