While the new game looks great, we're still talking about comparing it with an uprezzed version of a 13 year/two generation old game. Insomniac has been pretty boss at squeezing great visuals out of every console they work on. This remake stands just fine on its own without feigning amazement at how much better it looks than PS2 era textures and poly counts.

This is gonna be a great generation.
Although a big question I have is where the franchise goes from here. Does it continue the main story again? A remake of the second game and so forth?
I wish they would finally unravel the mystery of the Lombaxes already.

You kidding? Pokitaru is amazing in the original and a lot of people wanted to see it again in the remake.
It'll probably depend on how the movie does. If it's successful we are going to see remakes of the second and third games as well (with some retcons of course).
Maybe they'd skip the second one though.
I never played the original, only a Crack in Time. Still, my reaction to water levels in platformers is always negative.
Oh. You'll be happy to know that the water section in that level in the original is completely optional. I doubt they'll change that.
April 20th is my prediction.
Yea if in April I can see it being around then, though more I think it will line up with the movie, do we have a date for that?
April 20th is the release date for the movie. I figure they'll release the game on the same day.
The Rilgar water run is also one of the more memorable parts of the game.
Oh God, don't remind me D:
Had nightmares about it the first time through, though I've always cleared it in one shot afterwards.

I can see Pokiatru being another crystal collecting level like Gaspar is.

Omg omg...this looks not just visually pleasing but so fun. Man, can't wait. Who wins best visuals on ps4? Dreams vs. R&C vs. Horizon...

Man, this game is pretty.
I really wish more games used high quality motion blur like them. Games like Killzone, GOW, and Uncharted showed us last gen even how gorgeous it can look.

Damn it looks gorgeus
Re-imaginning. The plot is still Drek trying to make a new planet.
Yeah, looking into it more I realized Drek industry was still happening. Odd that he wasn't mentioned in the trailer.
Could easily see this happening:
-Ratchet and Clank 2 & 3 getting a movie (Called Ratchet & Clank 2) alongside a remake of using areas/weapons/ideas/ect of both games coming out sometime in 2018 (with Sly 5/Sly Movie Game coming out in 2017)
-Ratchet Dreadlock/Future Tools of Destruction being combined together into a single game following the ideas of Ratchet & Clank 2 (remake using both Going Commando and Up Your Arsenal). Not sure if we would get a third movie but who knows. Game comes out regardless sometime in 2019/2020
-Ratchet and Clank 4 gets announced; tells the story of 'A Crack in Time' and 'Quest for Booty'; retelling elements and going much deeper into Ratchet's backstory then we get from the games. Not sure about a fourth movie but who knows. Likely a PS5 launch game.
But who's feigning? They did a great job upgrading the remake while still keeping the soul of the original art direction
....Please don't say that :'(. I love the series and the movie could do WONDERS in giving the series some exposure.

Why would the movie bombing kill the franchise if the game still does well

Oh the movie will be seen!
The water splash looks especially nice here. Much easier to see at full res.
Insomniac Games killing it this gen.
