Ratchet & Clank PS4 Won't Break the Bank

Sweet. Very nice of them to do that, even though it's "new" enough to justify full price.

I dunno why, but I get the feeling they'll have some sort of collector's edition for it. Would be nice honestly. I can see it coming with a movie poster.

I know im probably going to get pounced on for saying this, but 10-12hrs? If its as good as it looks I will finish it in a weekend. Im not complaining, but I thought these games were pretty long. I've never played them so im just going off of friends comments. I'll still be getting this as it looks pretty damn good. We don't get enough 3D platform games these days.

This actually makes me even less confident in this game. I don't mind paying a premium price for a top-notch game, unfortunately none of Insomniac's recent Ratchet & Clank games could be considered top notch. The whole game based on a movie based on a game doesn't help. I'm glad Sony isn't quitting on the series, I just wish it had gone a different direction with a new studio at the helm.

@WARDIE If you go straight through the games, they usually last around that same length, maybe an hour more but not too much. What happens during that time is pretty fun though. If you need a reference, It took me around 14-16-ish hours to beat Crack in Time on my first playthrough, getting all Zoni, beating the arena and doing some of the other sidemissions, and that's one of the more packed games in the franchise.

@Gamer83 I understand your concern. A4O was only great with a friend, FFA was a good concept, but lacked real content. Nexus I haven't played yet. I think with this they're going in on actual R&C gameplay, and with a good length, it'll probably be good again. As for the movie aspect, they'll probably add the side content that the series normally has, which probably won't be seen in the film. So the game may not be limited.

@DerMeister
I'm hoping for the best. I doubt E3 or any showings afterwards will really do much either. With this type of game you have to play it to see what it actually entails. If Insomniac hadn't phoned in so many recent R&C's, I'd actually be really looking forward to this. The one thing I have to give it, and it's been true of every major release in the franchise, the graphics look awesome.

@SkanetWasTaken Good to know. I guess this has to be good if people are going to finish it more than once.

@WARDIE That's actually about the same lenght past R&C games had

Um, this article is a bit wrong, the game is $39.99 ($40), not $49.99 ($50)

Mr. Zurkon approves.

I just got it for $39.99,error or not is already pre-ordered.

I thought 1 was closer to 20 and 2 even longer? I never finished 2 b/c after about 20 hours I moved onto something else.

Though I do take longer to play games than most, have to explore every nook and cranny. My Last of Us play thru lasted 30 hours just going thru the story mode once. Though a part of thst was from the 50x I died. Stupid pyschopath. grrr

Dont think Id buy this for $40 or $50, probably $30. Still need a PS4 though.

Yeah, listed for $39.99, at least on the U.S. store. I'm definitely waiting for reviews on this one.

$50 isn't really a LOW price. If it was lower than that, then it usually means that it's not that long of a title. I've been hearing different things about it...one that it's a remake of the original and two...that's it's just a movie tie-in. Can anyone actually tell me what it will really be here???

@ToddlerNaruto Yep. I've pre-ordered mine yesterday for $39.99 on Amazon.

@JLPick It's both. The movie is a retelling/remaining of the original game's story. The new game is that movie's game...um yeah, I think I got that right.

The price is wrong, it's $40.
