The topic is if it would be a good idea to make a Ratchet & Clank game that is centered around smaller planetoids in order to revert the decline that the franchise has experienced in recent years.

they've already  done that..... last generation

what decline? seems normal to me considering the install base on ps3

No, they didn't. Going Commando had only one planetoid which isn't anywhere close to what you find in Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 which is what the topic creator is getting at. I have only played a few levels of Up Your Arsenal, but none of them were planetoids, so unless the rest of the game was heavily composed of planetoids, it too wasn't a game that is like SMG.

As for the decline in sales, the excuse of installed base doesn't hold up universally, because Metal Gear Solid didn't decline from the PS2 to PS3.

they weren't as small and compact like SMG but the general concept was similar

and neither did GoW or Killzone but those are games in far more popular genres than platformers on PlayStation which outside of Crash Bandicoot isn't that big

and another thing, I'm hoping non of you guys think Mario Galaxy is as popular as it is for anything other than the fact that it's a Mario game
