Lastly, am I the only one totally bummed about the death of console gaming? I mean I totally thought that stuff was taking off. Sigh.

I get what you're saying. Nitpickers.... I've only ever played a Ratchet game on the PSP, and got annoyed and quit when some stupid cheap bumper car game came along. The platforming/action was fun though. This one looks very nice. More games like this to draw my interest to the PS3 plz. There was one in Best Buy today, but I just can't justify $700+ (CDN) for something I have interest (and waning at that) in one or 2 games for.

It is a second gen 360 game. It came out about a year after the system was released.
First gen = first series of games up to a year after release (or so).
Second gen = second series of games a year after release.
After that no one seems to give a shit about what "gen" they are. I'm just using industry slang, it's not an exact science. at least, I thought it was industry slang...

Since it's Insomniac's second PS3 game, I'd say it's second generation.
Also first generation games typically mean they were released at, or near launch, or at least within the first year. This is coming a full year after launch.-
Well when you put it that way, I suppose you're right. :) Still pretty impressive, this early in the system's supposed-10-year life cycle. Can't imagine what kind of graphics we'll see 4-5 years from now. I wonder if the difference will be far less noticeable at this level of quality as games get better.
I kinda hope the physics/AI/sound aspect doesn't get neglected, either...-

You mean like this? http://www.insomniacgames.com/games/iFACE/rfom/rfomhigh.jpg

lol 10 year life cycle? I doubt that, I have a feeling next gen is going to come pretty fast even if they crash the market

That looks like they just made a mod for the Serious Sam 2 engine.

*cough* kameo

This game looks a billion times better than Kameo. Kameo sort of had a decent idea artistically but the final art direction was terrible in my opinion. Everything looked artificial and static and I felt the animation was poor. The videos and screens of this look much, much better done.

Shackers are hilarious when it comes to PS3 screenshots. If they're perceived as being technically inferior to some arbitrary Xbox 360 game, people jump all over them for that and the PS3 is no big deal. If they're perceived as being artistically inferior to some arbitrary Xbox 360 game, then, well, that expensive hardware is useless, right?

You think this http://media.xbox360.ign.com/media/490/490038/img_3071861.html looks as impressive as this: http://magus.shackspace.com/Ratchet%20&%20Clank/3.jpg ?
That's the nicest picture of Kameo I could find on IGN.-
-
-
well they are completely different artistically but there's plenty of shaders/lighting/polygons going on in that Kameo shot. There's just a lot less boxy-ness than what you see in the Clank shot. Plus I've just seen Kameo in motion very recently so, as usual, the screenshot pales in comparison to the real thing.

I loved Kameo (even some of its art, though I do agree with you in general) and have never really liked playing games on the Sony systems and hope to put off a PS3 as long as possible, but as much as I enjoyed it it can not and will not hold a candle to any of the big Sony-exclusive platformers, and that'll force my hand sooner than later.
And at least with Ratchet on the system, my wife won't yell at me when I do get one. :) I'm excited for this, and like what I've seen so far.

I can't say I like their colors. At all.
-
Companies really need to stop putting 'grass' in the game if they aren't going to do it well. =[
-
Preach on, very few games do it right.
-
and random doo-dads/trees/junkamabobs in the environments. I think they should go back to this rule: if the player can't interact with it don't put it in the game.

don't get me wrong, i'd love to be pleasantly surprised. but honestly after spent a decent amount of time with the PS3 and having lived through roughly ten years of videogame marketing i'm not gonna bank on those baring too much resembelence to what we'll all see on our TVs in five months.
