i beat the game on hard.

big improvement over the other gameplay wise. but tools had a better story

and I can't play it until 17th. Ima stay away from this thread for a while.

I didn't like the Ratchet demo that much. Didn't feel like the old R&C controls and gameplay. Dunno.. might have to play a bit more to get the feeling of it. I also though the in game graphics when they're talking to that robot, was a bit fuzzy. I was expecting a much cleaner look. :(

Just beat it a few minutes ago. I'm glad I've been able to follow along since I've only played the two Future games on PS3 (not counting Quest For Booty).

Beat it in 7.5 hours on Casual! I was going to do the moderate difficulty, but I wanted to make sure I was able to see the ending before I had to take it back to the rental store.

Was it just me or does the interview with Quark while the game installs stutter a bit? Also, when I unlocked the ability to buy the groovatron, the preview video kept freezing every for a few seconds so I just stopped the preview and kept on playing the game. By the time I reached the next weapon store, the groovatron preview played without a problem. Probably should have really checked the disk, but I merely did a quick glance after I was finished playing because the groovatron preview video was the only time it happened after the install cutscene.

If this is to be Insomniac's last 60fps game, then I shall be sad because they did a great job with the Ratchet and Clank games I've played. The gameplay felt so smooth and the grahpics were great (though the shadows cast on the characters were pixelated). I'd at least hope that they can continue to keep the frame rate at a solid number without any dips in their next game.

I didn't have problems with the interview, I'm on the Tomboli outpost and this is the best planet so far in the game, not to mention the best looking thing I've seen either Ratchet PS3 disc games.

When you went back in time and planted the vines then used them in the present was pretty cool and the past version looked amazing, really colorful and nice. That part reminded me a bit of Viva Pinata in the graphics department.

Come on game, send the game already!

I played Clanks demo just a moment ago, and it was way better than the Ratchet part. Although i can see the puzzle being quite annoying later on in the game, thankfully though i saw a video explaining that you could skip certain puzzles, but then you'd loose the reward you'd get from completing them.

Seriously? I didn't have any problem with the puzzles and I enjoyed them.

Never play Braid if this was too much :P

Woo! My copy has been dispatched, hopefully it will come in the next couple of days, as I think Friday is a post office strike day

I think the Clank puzzles are the best part, I almost wish they let me skip Ratchet parts instead of Clank puzzles, Might be getting Ratchet fatigue.
