Sadly, I'm just now joining in on the series for PS3.
I played/finished/own the first four Ratchet & Clank games, for my PS2. I loved them.
But, I bought R&C Future: Tools of Destruction, Quest for Booty, A Crack in Time; as well as All 4 One, all in the last 6 months.
I already finished ToD and QfB, and plan on taking on ACiT after I finish up Lollipop Chainsaw.
As for the PS2 games, I have to say "Ratchet: Deadlocked" was my favorite. It had an interesting "darker" tone compared to the first three. And on PS3, I don't have a favorite yet. I'm loving them all so far. haha.
Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando is a very good game in its own right. My favorite of the series though didn't actually happen until the first one on the PlayStation 3 hit, in Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction. At that point the game really had it all. The SIXAXIS stuff was fun. The gadgets were too. The story (especially the cliffhanger) left me wanting more at the end.
All good games in their own way, my least favorite I'd have to say would probably be Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters. Not developed by Insomniac, the game does feel like you're playing a Ratchet and Clank. Though, the plot for the game was cheesier and not the best. It was the final boss that really cheesed me off the most, however. Playing this game on a PSP, it seemed pretty clear that it's impossible to complete. After a number of times where the boss doesn't let up no matter what, I finally decided to call it quits and claim forever that Size Matters not.

hahaha, yes, Size Matters gave me so much trouble. I loved the handheld game, but that last boss had me screaming "C'mooooon" at my PSP so often -- after every failed attempt -- I started sounding like Jerry Seinfeld.
After 2 days of trying to beat the game, I was able to finally succeed, put the game away, and never think of it again.
Okay, so I FINALLY played/completed ToD, ACiT, and A4O over the past few months.
I'd have to say "A Crack in Time" is my favorite R&C game on the PS3.. and maybe out of the whole franchise...
But my favorite PS2 R&C game is probably a tie between "Ratchet: Deadlocked" and "Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal."
