Ratchet and Clank is awesome.

Well, I'm a big fan of the series. I've bought every Ratchet on PS3 so far!

You're just saying that because I said it.

But there is three Ratchet games on the PS3

I have them all, but I was talking about the Blu Ray releases I bought.

Tease.

Insomniac Games shouldn't have to defend itself, they're great developers who should be respected.

And none of those made by Insomniac are under 81/10 based on metacritic (except Quest for Booty but that's a PSN title so it's not really the same).

This same exact argument can be used for Guitar Hero also. It still sells well and it reviews well. Is Guitar Hero being milked?

..... Yes. Hell yes.

Edit: when a game almost singlehandedly begins to slow down/oversaturate a genre, you know it's milked.

Of course it is! LOL

Guitar Hero is the perfect example of a milked franchise.

People may consider game's "milked", but for me, if a game has a new sequel every 2-3 years I do not consider them milked.

Honestly, who actually enjoyed waiting 4-5 years for sequel to a game they love?
