In 2007, the company released Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters for the PlayStation Portable, with a PlayStation 2 port released the next year, and Secret Agent Clank in 2008, also for the PlayStation Portable. On November 3, 2009,[2] the company released its third game, Jak and Daxter: The Lost Frontier, for the PlayStation Portable and PlayStation 2.
