It comes out right before SMG and appears to be an extremely well made game. I've even read one preview in which the writer says: "If your friends ask you why you spent so much on a PS3 show them this game". I'm curious what you guys think, if this game comes out and scores >90% or even if it shockingly scores better than SMG would that cause SMG to lose some of it's appeal?

Nah, I don't see it happening considering Super Mario is one of thee best platformers of all time. Ratchet and Clank has just got into making a name for themselves. I granutee that if this series doesn't do good. We can expect Naughty Dog to drop this series like they did Crash Bandicoot.

By the way, that new Crash Bandicoot came is pretty good.


 It is made by Insomniac. And with the proper advertising this could be massive.

Nope. I thought it was great. Not on the level of SM64, but a great game nonetheless.


 Agreed. It clicked when I thought "SM64 + Watergun" but it wasn't "OMG REVOLUTION IN PLATFORMING!"



There is no such thing as a console war. This is the first step to game design.

 Euhm I liked it too.

The only difference is that I was dissapointed with that game.  Mario 64 was so damned great.

Doesn't mean that Sunshine was crap,  I was just expecting more.

Am I the only one who loved Sunshine and hated Mario64? (to day, even on Virtual Console, I hate Mario64's camera and controls, and consider them game-breakers)



Nobody is crazy enough to accuse me of being sane.

Mario Sunshine is way better than MArio 64.

whew, very anti- Ratchet sentiments. I like both. I will be getting R & C Future though. I played the demo and like the series.

Im not sure if Ill be able to handle to jumping from planet to planet in SMG.

SMG is just about as close to a 'perfect storm' as you're going to get this holiday season. It will probably be the best looking and playing game the Wii has yet seen -- a title that truly could not be done on any other system. And it will be the first game since Wii Sports that doesn't feel like a port from the GameCube or PS2.

R&C may be good. Heck, it could even be great. But SMG will be upping people's expectations for platform titles this generation. It may not be the leap that was Mario 64 (and in this day and age, what could be?), but it will become the game that everyone else looks to copy from this point forward.

Look for Super Mario Galaxy to outsell Super Mario Sunshine (lifetime worldwide sales) by the end of March 2008.

Look for Ratchet and Clank to outsell Ratchet 1... Never.

No way. I'd rather Play R&C 1 than Sunshine. That game pissed me off. I always thought it was funny that Luigi and Mario both had their own games on gamecube, and Luigi had a vacuum cleaner when Mario had a water gun.

So Luigi sucks and Mario blows.

I kid. I love the Mario games. With the exception of Sunshine.

No, Mario squirts and sprays.
