Disapointed by another PS3 game.

Yet again I buy another PS3 game and feel my money was not well spent. So the only PS3 game I was truly excited about was Rachet & Clank. I spent 5 hrs playing the game and was very bored with the game. I have always enjoyed the series, It felt a little above average. It started out fun, I enjoyed the grinding the rails and those types of jumping puzzles. Then it started to get very repetative. The game is not horrable by any means, I just don't feel it was worth $60. It would be a great rental. I will pick up drake uncharted. Give that a chance.Until then, looks like it's back to playing dvd's. So far with the exception of Warhawk, nothing has been worth $60, everything else I could play all I wanted in a rental span.

Let me stress, the game is not bad. It's just not worth the money until it goes down in price.

Repetative? R&C? ROFLMAF!lhbchen

QFT!

Well it is the 5th game in the series, and not a lot has changed since the first irritation of the game.... But then again when Insomniac did do something "new" and "different" we got Deadlock, so maybe we should be thankful that this game is more of the same...

DepressedHippie

Lol irritation...

Yes, and that's why we should just say "MY" sixty bucks is well spent(or not) instead of making decision for other people and claiming it "not worth the money until it goes down in price" as TC did.

I agree, I wasn't all that happy with the game, and the series is becoming a grind to me. I guess you can only do so much with some concepts, and I also don't blame Irrational for not trying to fix what wasn't necessarily broken, but I just would have liked to see more from the game. After my horrible sadness after Heavenly Sword and especially Lair, I'm not going to go so far as to say that R&C wasn't worth my money, but it's on the verge.

Personally I hate it when games are too easy, and it's a further slap in the face to me when they have a hard mode, but it's unlockable only through going through the entire game first. It's like they are making us play through the game ina crappy way, just so we can play it all over again the way it's supposed to be played with proper difficulty.

were all gonna be gettin used to that feelin, we will be havin it alot thanks to the wonderful PS3 :|

I always have my doubts when a person with a Xbot Sig posts negatively on a PS3 game (just cause you own both consoles doesn't mean you can't be a fangirl). I enjoyed the demo and am awaiting my pre-order of the game (it releases later in Europe). I'm quite sure I'll be enjoying the game. However one thing did become clear on the demo, the GS review wasn't lying when it said the game was a bit easy. But hey, there's still the unlockable hard mode and it's always nice to own an easy game if you wantfriends who're not real gamers to have a go at one of your incredible looking PS3 games. And let's face it: R&C on a HD tv is graphically more proficient (in its sort)than any 360 game will ever be.NielsNL

Umm I played the demo last night and wanted to see for myself what the fuss was with the graphics, ummm still asking the same question here. I have a 32 inch Smasung HDTV and play in 1080i and the game does look good but when you get comments like "And let's face it: R&C on a HD tv is graphically more proficient (in its sort)than any 360 game will ever be" The graphics isn't that great and nothing out of the ordinary, have you played Gears of War or Bioshock, R&C doesn't even come close to those two on a HDTV.

Play those two games and them come back here and say what you said before.

I have 18 games, and I can say that all of them are fun and worth paying $60,00. (except F.E.A.R). I think that you people want the PERFECT game, but let me tell you something, it doesn't exist.

There is aways a BUT, the game is good, nice graphics, BUT...

For me someone that says that Resistance, Motorstorm, R6V, Ninja Gaiden, EofJ, Oblivion... are not worth $60, clearly has issues...

i couldnt disagree with your more.... RandC is great.... love the variety, the graphics, the funny dialogue and upgradeables. and the sixaxis controls are actually good (wow.) This is now my favorite PS3 game....

Im curious, what other PS3 games are u disappointed with?

gears of war has great graphics, but im sorry the only good thing about the graphics in Bioshock was some water effects and architecture. the human character models were HORRIBLE, and not in a destroyed beauty type of way. And dont get me started on the animations for said models when they actually tried to lipsync them. Also when you looked out into the ocean backgrounds when looking through windows the background texture/images were horribly pixelated.

Ratchet and Clank looks like a pixar movie.... IMO its up there with Gears of War, Lost Planet, Motorstorm and Heavenly Sword in the best graphics so far this gen.

You are dissappointed with HS and R&C?

Um,,, the only thing I can respond to this is that your taste of gaming is really unique. As unique as Aaron Thomas' if not more.

I agree with the gamespot review. Its fun but its the same game once again. Except for the graphics it feels like Ive played this game 4 times before on the ps2.Radiozo

How is that any different from just about any sequel?

Some people would be disappointed by the Apocalypse and the arrival of the four Horsemen would have them tutting and glancing at their watches...

Games are aimed at a particular group, If you are disappointed by R & C has it occured to you that it is perhaps time to start looking around for a different genre to immerse yourself in.

Try starting a thread in which you point out only the good points of the game and end it with youtr thoughts on what group would be attracted to this game and why. Then ask yourself if that applies to you after all.

Or do a review instead of sulking on misspent cash.

There are a lot of great games for the PS3 out right now, and if you're having trouble justifying 60 dollars spent on a game then maybe you should go back to playing PS2. It sounds like you just don't like shelling out 60 bucks. If that's the case....then buy or don't buy. No one really cares.

Lair Heavenly sword and RFOM. I wont touch any game on the PS3 that is already on the 360. I like my games in 1080p. Most games on the PS3 are not.[QUOTE="ajefferism"]

360 isn't 1080p... what console are you playing 1080p on? (unless you have a $1600 PC that has that monitor res?)

i could have told u that. after playing the demo i thought the game was meh.

Warhawk doesnt cost $60... unless you bought the retail version... which i guess u did... my post was useless.MalachiLiu

[QUOTE="magikmark84"]wow, I guess everyone has different expectations, I really thought R & c was worth my 60 bucks, it reminded me of starfox except with top of the line graphics & you can do alot more. It had alot of humor too so i dont know, I feel that R&C was worth it, like i said though everyone has different expectations, we all expect different things in a game & the reason i say that is, there are people out there who dislike R&C, just like how there are people who dislike MGS or whatever, it's just how it is i guess.DepressedHippie

Starfox? As in the space ship game for the super NES and 64? Or are you talking about something else?

I'm talking about the one from N64, only reminds me of starfox because of the different planets & how you get to have space fights in those jet thingy's, lol

u must hate the 360 then, considering your need to play in 1080p. since only one console offers 1080p i guess u like ur games on a $2000 PC then.

forgot_my_name

360 isn't 1080p... what console are you playing 1080p on? (unless you have a $1600 PC that has that monitor res?)

like that guy said. The X360 is 720p native but it upscale the image to 1080p. In simple words; 720p it's better than the upscaled 1080p.

the PS3 is the only console in this gen that is 1080p native...
