I was just wondering, r other PS3 owners dissapointed with the Ratchet and Clank Demo? I played through the demo and the only thing that I noticed being better was the graphics by a little, but the game play was still the same. I'm a little dissapointed. What r ur thoughts? R u still going to buy it after playing the demo?

The game play is suppose to be the same since Insomniac went back to their roots because the R&C fans demanded it. By the way. Do you have a HDTV? Because the graphics are better than RFOM.

Of course the gameplay is the same. It's Ratchet & Clank. It's the same reason Gran Turismo is pretty much exactly the same as the original. Don't change what's practically perfect. Besides, a 10 minute segment of gameplay is nowhere NEAR enough to judge an entire R&C game. The fun lies in the hilarious story, the item collection, the great gameplay, the crazy weapons, the RPG customization, and the immense replay value.

What the demo DID do is show how great the graphics are. There are so many subtle details and the environment is just so vibrant that it's hard not to be impressed. It just solidified my decision to pick up the game on day one.

i played it and i thought it was one of the best ps3 demos to date. it's one of the only demos that actually made me confirm that i want the game. i realize that there were other demos out there that everyone thought was good, but this is more of the style of game that i like :)

I have really liked the R&C games so far and this one doesnt look to dissapoint. I heard rumor (devs talking on another forum) that the game should be about 12-13 hours long on a quick run through. Very nice for a platformer. This will probably be the PS3's first AAA exclusive here on gamespot.

i loved the demo and apparantly the new demo coming to PSN is supposed to be better. Less frame tearing and better framerate. I really liked the demo though, glad I preordered the game.

I have a 1080p hdtv hooked up via HDMI and the graphics looked good but it just did not wow me. But maybe its because I'm getting numb to all the great graphics games out there. The more I played the demo, the more I liked it, but I still don't plan on getting it. The Orange Box will keep me busy along with Uncharted and Assassins Creed.

Funny you'd say that. While the graphics didn't disappoint me, I still don't think they lived up to the screenshots. It's still one of the best looking games out there, and the framerate was silky smooth. But even on my brand new Samsung 1080p TV, they didn't quite compare to the stuff I saw online. But unlike you, I will be buying this puppy on launch day. :)

Everyone is entitled to their opinion but honestly, the graphics are better than anything I've seen on any console. The gameplay is the same. yeah, good. because the gameplay in the first games was completely awesome.

I enjoyed the heck out of the demo, my friend however was meh. He's anti-PS3 and his taste in gaming sucks.

What are you talking about dude, the game is better than before and more improved and more advanced. That was just a demo, And I don't get how you see it as disappointment.

Ratchet and Clank Rocks, Adventure games don't necessarily have to have new moves or tricks to keep it interesting. Games like this come from the level designs themselves. I think people need to wake up and realize what makes a good game. All the other adventure games in the series were top notch, so there comes a point where it has to remain. The same with Donkey Kong adventure games and Mario.

Not to start system wars, but it's also the reason why 360 is somewhat lame, it has no adventure games really.

I am not fanboy so don't call me out on it

Considering Halo 3 still plays like the first Halo, I guess its dissapointing also then. It is no system seller of a game but it's still really well done and fun. It's extremely polished and exactly what I expect from a Platformer!!!!

^^it's true though adventure games are rare on the 360. Speaking of which, Banjo 3 is coming out but sadly only for the 360. I hope EA buys Rare :twisted:

Dude there must be something wrong with you the demo was one of the best i have ever seen. No Sh#t the gameplay is the same its called a "franchise" where they make a series of games based on the same gameplay and story.
