Rumor report: Ratchet attending GDC?

But while it's been known for quite some time that a new Ratchet game would be coming in 2009, details are still scarce on the title. Rumors have surfaced recently though that Insomniac is hard at work on the new title, and it may even make it's debut at the Game Developers Conference next month. Looking at Insomniac's track record, Resistance 2 was first announced in February 2008, so this rumor may hold some truth.

I think Sony should announce a Ratchet&Clank CG movie.

Xandet5577d ago

...made by the team at Pixar. FTW!

Freak of Nature5577d ago (Edited 5577d ago )

CG movie would be nice,but I am looking forward to an actual game even more so....

I recall early concept work for RCF1 coming out in March 07' for the Fall 07' release.So GDC sounds just about right for a proper unveiling...

A little more in depth puzzle solving,a bit more in platforming,a little more open ended Worlds would be extra nice news....A little extra eye candy and more intelligent A.I. would be gravy......And co-op would be off the charts...

Wow...GOW3 and Uncharted 2 along with it...

Now to complete this dream all I need is news on Team Icos next game,a new Jak game and some new news on Beyond good and evil 2....

gaffyh5576d ago

Ratchet is always awesome, personally I hope they add some sort of online multiplayer to attract more gamers, cos many people don't buy the game cos it doesn't have multiplayer, and it deserves to sell very well.

Whatever the case, this will be a Day 1 purchase for me.

Johnny Rotten5577d ago

Ratchet games are always good, I just hope they give it enough development time to make it something special.

btw nice website, the layout's pretty slick!

robert02675577d ago (Edited 5577d ago )

don't forget about half life 2 ep 3 and killzone 2.

Freak of Nature5576d ago (Edited 5576d ago )

@robert0267 .....

Oh no,I dont think it would be possible to forget about those upcoming gems....Along with Resident evil 5,Infamous,Borderlands,Quantum theory,demon souls,Darksiders,GT5,Wet,Dark void,and others that excite me...And how about Assassins creed 2,the "flawed masterpiece",if given a co-op system,no repetitive gameplay,a few extra touchs in graphics and overall A.I. and physics,wow,that has some real potential too....Good gaming ahead,thats for sure!

Xandet5577d ago

R&C has always managed to be near the top of my favorite gaming series since the original.. Tools of Destruction was fantastic, but lacked some of the features and charm so well made by Insomniac in the past. Just bring back the online (co-op!) and we've got yet another fantastic addition to the Insomniac Games library. Wow.. now that I think about it we may have a trifecta from the three best dev teams of the PS2 days(Insomniac, Naughty Dog, Sucker Punch). It's a damn good year to be a PS3 gamer..

Aclay5577d ago

It makes plenty of sense for the next Rachet to possibly appear at GDC and to be released Fall of this year. I have to admit, with all the games being talked about on the PS3, I had totally forgotten all about a new Rachet game this year.

I'm really interested in seeing what games come out of Insomniac's new studio here where I live in North Carolina too. Insomniac has stayed independent and exclusive to Sony for over 10 years, and I hope it stays that way for a LONG time.

cmrbe5577d ago

i am dying to play the next RC for sometime now. There goes another 60 this year if true.

HDgamer5577d ago

Same here, I do hope they add an online mode though or some type of co-op. I would love to play this game online like on the ps2.

Man... what i wouldnt give to have a full PS5 UHD of all the R&C games in one collection. i guess streaming them on PS+ is the next best thing (or naturally a PS3)

Aloymetal541d ago

Rift was a joy to play, absolutely beautiful.

FallenAngel1984541d ago

They couldn’t make PS2 versions of those R&C games like they did with the J&D games?

mkis007540d ago

considering they are ps3 games that never had ps2 versions....no.

CobraKai540d ago

Yeah? You might wanna double check that.

mkis007540d ago

Kobra
What fan that waited for launch day needs to know? There were 4 ps2 games the rest starting with tools was ps3 only. Quest for booty, a crack in time, nexus, full frontal assault were ps3 games.

FallenAngel1984540d ago

You really saying Ratchet & Clank, Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando, Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal and Ratchet: Deadlocked weren’t on PS2? 🤨

theandinator92540d ago

Even Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters and Secret Agent Clank had PS2 versions...

mkis007540d ago

Of course I wasn't talking about the actual ps2 games...why would they need to make ps2 versions of ps2 games? That is why I only included the ps3 games in my comment.

FallenAngel1984540d ago

@ no

You must’ve misunderstood what I asked for.

I’m saying they should’ve made PS2 Classic versions of these Ratchet & Clank titles on PS4 so they’d be downloadable just like Jak & Daxter had rather than just streaming the PS3 versions

mkis007539d ago

Ya I realized you meant emulated versions after the fact.

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is amazing. I really hope Insomniac are working on more. I'm always up for another Ratchet & Clank game.

CobraKai540d ago

I think it’s still the only “Next Gen” game that truly looks next gen.

Levii_92540d ago

Sick ! R&C is still one of my favourite franchises.

Ranking the Ratchet and Clank Games from Worst to Best

From Xfire: "Insomniac Games first introduced the unlikely duo of Ratchet and Clank back in 2002 on the PlayStation 2. Since then, the series has taken audiences on a journey that has spanned not just an entire galaxy, but multiple dimensions, with its most recent outings."

Levii_921043d ago

Best games of the franchise are Up Your Arsenal, A Crack in Time, 2016 Remake and without a doubt the newest one Rift Apart. You simply can’t go wrong with these.

Man what a glorious game series.

neutralgamer19921043d ago

Only ones I don't like as much are all 4 one and full frontal assault other than that all games are awesome( even these are good games just not up to the standard of other games in the series)

victorMaje1043d ago

Nice article, good list, they're all fun & I love this game!
Rift Apart is spectacular.
Insomniac are wizards, I want their next game to be a new Resistance. I can't wait to see what they have in store for us next.

DOMination-1043d ago

Ryan Mccaffrey said last week that Resistance 4 was in development but Sony cancelled it due to the high number of post-apocalyptic games around at the moment.

victorMaje1043d ago

Well that’s a shame. I feel they could do something truly special with today’s technology.

chicken_in_the_corn1043d ago

I'm looking forward to playing Rift Apart then the whole series sometime afterward. Up Your Arsenal is my favourite
