What a nonsensicial comparison. They're completely different genres for starters. Second of all, one is an AAA budget game while the other is a low budget experimental game meant to pad out the Wii U's library until the NX finally arrives.

Except of course that Ratchet and Clank is only $40 and Star Fox will likely be $60...

Because R & C games aren't selling well anymore (I wonder why...). It's one of the reasons why Insomniac decided to make games for other platforms. And what you said doesn't make the comparison any more valid.

Because there hasn't been a mainline Ratchet game since 2009. That should be fairly obvious. 

I was simply saying that the argument that they shouldn't be compared because Star Fox is some budget title while Ratchet and Clank is this huge game is nonsensical.

 

Also, it's weird that you claim to think the comparison is silly while also taking digs at R&C...just an observation.

Into the Nexus was a mainline game... I'm not taking digs at R & C, I'm just using facts (because I think R & C is more interesting anyway). Sales of the franchise have been dwindling for many years now. The PS demographic has outgrown this franchise.

How is the argument about budgets nonsensical? This game even has a movie to support it. The difference in budgets is huge. Price of the games doesn't change anything about that. It just shows that Sony isn't confident that games like these still sell well anymore at full price. As for Star Fox, the game looks like it has been cobbled together in a year. What's next? Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival vs Horizon? They both have animals in it.

You are making it sound like this was "GTA5" vs "Flower"

Why would Sony spend huge amounts of money on a super AAA game just to sell it at 40 bucks? Admit it, R&C is an average investment, they are just using that money in a good way. It even sounds more reasonable to think the game is a tie in for the movie and not the other way around
