What do I gotta do to be able to play Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time? I'll do anything.
Piano synth banging out chords, Takayama’s vocals kicking in, THE CLANK, fade background out and slow pan back down to Heero in a now-ruined colony… So good~

Clink-clanks is a playful, onomatopoeic slang term for handcuffs. The name comes from the metallic clinking and clanking sound that metal restraints make when they move — which also happens to be exactly the sound you'd rather not hear if you're having a bad night. The term lightens the subject with its childlike sound-effect quality, making it popular in comedy, casual crime talk, and anywhere people want to reference handcuffs without sounding overly serious or formal.
