 Are people of this site that stupid not to no this is from another article? It clearly says at the bottom "Dno says" because thats thats my view on this article. I think my fellow man on this site is much smarter then this but i will give u a link.

Uh... what? The article writer doesn't even compare and contract the two games; he just goes, "Hey, nuts and bolts are what you collect in Ratchet & Clank! RIPOFF!!"

 

 hahahah

While thats true in a way he clearly has reasons why he thinks this. He is stating that instead of Insomniac being influenced by rare like it was 6-7 years ago. It is now the other way around. Which is pretty funny

no problem but its stating the obvious. But i will remeber that in the future as i see it bothers a lot of people.

 



This is a terrible article, the author doesn't even address the topic that he/she made, that insomniac is the new rare. Obviously just a ploy to get clicky's.

Aside from the similarities all platformers share, the author made no attempt to show that Banjo is infact copying Ratchet. Seriously, it's just a page full of ranting.

I also find it highly amusing that the author says that Rare's the one that's run out of ideas, when we've essentially been playing the same ratchet game 3 times already (after the freshness that was the first 2 games).

Look what happened when they tried to change up the formula of their games (R&C: Deadlocked and Secret agent clank). If that's not a strong indication that Insomniac is the one running out of ideas for the gameplay of R&C, I don't know what is.



As if the "Nuts & Bolts = the things you collect in Ratchet & Clank, OMG!" premise of this pile wasn't lame enough, any article which approvingly quotes David "Timed Exclusivity for Mirror's Edge" Reeves is a treasure trove of fail.

Dno...anytime you present someone else's work you have to provide a source....otherwise it is plagiarism.

Another reason we need a source is to know where this info is coming from...i.e, is this a reputable site that has been known to provide quality conjecture....or just a fanboy site that doesn't have a leg to stand on.

 

And you might want to edit the OP with that link.

 



OMG THERE ARE TWO GAMES WHERE YOU COLLECT METAL PIECES!!!!!!!!!!

Fanboy article.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

Insomniac games.. i always hated :P
rare is pretty overrated.. golden eye set standards to console gaming but pc gaming was far more advanced, the only thing i LOVEEEEED with rare is DKC.a



Don't know about Banjo copying R&C, but I do know one thing: Insomniac is superior to Rare.



This article is absolute nonsense.

Also, Rare has a far more diverse back catalog than Insomniac Games, and the fact that the author of the article snipes at Viva Pinata further cements his fanboy intentions.



Hates Nomura.
