A few weeks ago, my PS3 wouldn't read discs, so all I could do with it while waiting for the box from Sony was to download demos (purchased games would be lost). I've never bothered with Ratchet and Clank, until I tried the demo for the last game. I was suprised by how fun it was. I don't actually plan on getting this game, since the last one is cheap now, and hey, it's new to me.
One of the perks of being woefully behind on the times. Just got BioShock too.
@teke367: I just discovered R and C myself. I'm trying to at least work through Up Your Arsenal before I move up to the PS3 ones.
The game's been just what I've needed; the cute spunky quality of a Sonic game mixed with creatively designed massive weapons. I can see why it's lasted as long as it has (UYA has a Bill Clinton soundalike)
Finally, more first party games from Sony. They've been lacking in that department. Now if they'd only release a new Jak & Daxter game akin to the original I'd be in heaven.
@Plastique:
I actually loved the second, and it's goofy hover vehicles if I recall it correctly (been about 5 years since I played it) though I'd be happy with anything on the PS3 as long as "Jak and Daxter" is in the title and it's made by Naughty Dog!
@Strife Fox †: This may be blasphemous...but I would be happy to never see another Naughty Dog developed Jak & Daxter game if it meant more Uncharted. ;)
There are about 9 games that I am really waiting for right now, but since money is tight I think I might have to reconsider what games I really want to get.
With
Ninja Gaiden SIGMA 2
Uncharted 2
Demon's Souls
Ratchet and Clank Future: ACIT
Tekken 6
Assassins Creed 2
COD Modern Warfare 2
Muramasa The Demon Blade
Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom
Definitely getting
RACF: ACIT
Assassins Creed 2 and
Uncharted 2
I might wait on those wii games because my wii is broken.....
BAH another game to buy! I forgot about this one. I thought Uncharted was going to be my only must-buy for a while. But my wife loved Tools of Destruction, so either this is a must-buy or I must-sleep-on-the-couch.
@darkos87:
Not particularly, as someone else pointed out, this game is pretty much the only one of its kind being released this Winter, so it'll stick out from all these shooters more than everyone thinks, plus, it's a Ratchet and Clank game, the series has been around since pretty much the dawn of the PS2, people know the name.
@darkos87: Not everyone likes shooters. There is a major vacuum for lighter fare this holiday. This and SMB Wii should make a killing, since the field is wide open for them.
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?! I thought this was coming out in December, shit with Uncharted 2 and this in October my PS3 is gonna be getting some good quality lovin.
You could set your clock by those guys at Insomniac. Not only to they release a decent (if it wasn't for R2 I'd say great or fantastic) game every year, they do it when they say they will, no matter what.
I think we can assume if the US release date will be the 27th, It'll be out the 30th in the UK and Europe. That's the way it normally works - USA gets it on a Tuesday, and the Brits get it on a friday.
@Ursus-Veritas: i hope you're right but if i remember correctly the last Ratchet and Clank game had a delay between U.S and Europe hence why i imported a copy. it may have only been a month or couple of weeks but I'm sure there was some kind of hold up.
@Trumpet: Insomniac usually delays games by three weeks, roughly for the ps3's US and EU release. But most reliable retailers had initially put this game and uncharted for November and two weeks before this announcement placed them in October which gives me reason to believe it probably will be on the 30th.
I might get it.....TOD, I liked it, but all the hype made me think I was getting something on the level of Mario or Jak. Still a good game though. Hopefully the time manipulation thing plays a big part.

The only games I'm *definetly* getting this Winter are Uncharted 2, Modern Warfare 2, Dead Rising and Fallout 3 GOTY Edition for PS3.
Everything else can wait until January+ time, like I did last year.

Between this, Uncharted 2 and Brutal Legend...
I just...I just don't know how to support my drug habit. The prices of crack are expensive and by crack, I mean games.

Start an online petition. I'm sure if enough people sign it they will scrap Uncharted 3 or hire 100 extra people for a second team ;P

Doesn't Naughty Dog only have one team though? I assume after they finish Uncharted 2 they'd move right on to Uncharted 3.
Maybe at the end of the generation they'll make a Jak and Daxter or Uncharted kart racing game :)

Insomniac is one of those companies that really knows the ps3, and has consistently made beautiful games for the console.
