Ratchet & Clank 120Hz Update

The 1.002 update was actually advertised as more of a photo mode update than anything. Even the tweet from Insomniac pushes this aspect of the update over the 120Hz mode.

This 120Hz update does not increase the game's FPS to 120, instead it boosts the Fidelity Mode to run at 40FPS on 120Hz compatible devices. A much needed upgrade for a game that relies on its graphic fidelity quite a lot.
