I can imagine a Ratchet & Clank fan getting upset if they buy a next generation R&C game and being nothing like they loved before. Similarly the average Madden fan, may not like it if Madden 2008 would really be Fifa soccer 2008.  Buying sequels usually sets expectations appealing to fans of previous releases. IMO it's a weak argument unless you didn't like R&C in the first place, but the various PS2 releases was rated at 8.6 at minimum, this release does most definitately take the R&C games to a new level I would say. |
It's not a matter of doing something radicaly different, it's a matter of proposing new things. I'm having fun with Halo 3 in MP, but frankly, the solo campaing was disappoiting because it brings nothing new to the franchise. Clearly a weakness IMO.
One important thing about games and rating systems : they are done by comparing games to each others. Often, a good game is a game that do things better than other/previous did. Expecting something new, something more (and visuals are only part of it) is normal.
