"Reimagining" huh? I wander what that means. Pretty excited.
I never understood why Sony keeps pushing Ratchet and Clank instead of making a new Jak and Dexter! Makes no sense at all.
Except it's 13, and ten were main releases.20 is pretty far from 11. Of which, just six were mainline.(incl. Nexus)
It's still a high number, no doubt, but it's in line with Jak's releases ratio. It's just that one series was abandoned by the devs at a certain point and the. other not.

R&C,2,3,TOD,ACIT,Nexus are main.
Deadlocked, Size Matters, Secret Agent Clank, Qforce and A4O are spin offs.
6+5=11.
I'd hardly count anything except the PS2 and PS3 trilogy as "main releases". Size Matters, Full Frontal Assault definitely not. Actually not sure I'd count Pirate's Booty as one, maybe just Tools and CIT for PS3. Nexus is maybe the closest but is still like 1/3rd to half of a main release.
The only spin offs are FFA, A4O, and Secret Agent Clank. All of the others (including Quest for Booty and the upcoming game, which makes 13) have the same core gameplay, characters, and are part of the main story line. Being portable or smaller does not make a spin off. A spin off focuses on different characters and/or gameplay mechanics.

Quest for booty is a 2 hours standalone dlc. If you're really counting that one in then you're getting me to think that this is just a biased attempt to make the series look like it's been overly milked.
And while Size Matters is still borderline, Deadlocked definitely does not qualify as a main game, even by your standards.
You forgot Quest for BootyR&C,2,3,TOD,ACIT,Nexus are main.

Pretty sure they said early 2015 at E3....
Shhhhhh!
Oh god no! I don't think the series is milked at all. I love that it gets tons of releases because I'm absolutely crazy about it. Why don't you think Deadlocked fits by my definition?
You forgot Quest for Booty
OT, I hope it's good, unlike everything after ACIT.
I strongly disagree.Because Ratchet and Clank was always the better series.
If I remember correctly, the first 3 Jak games sold more than the first three Ratchet games.It makes sense because it is a series that has sold more
So it’s with great pride I get to announce that Insomniac will continue our involvement with the Ratchet & Clank movie while developing a game that re-imagines the original Ratchet & Clank for PS4. As was mentioned during Sony’s press conference , the game will share the film’s vision of Ratchet’s origin story, and features updated gameplay along with completely new visuals that rival the best PS4 games on the market.

Is it weird that Sunset Overdrive has sold me on PS4?
This game is gonna look bananas.
Hopefully Insomniac gives this enough attention. Into the Nexus was ok but not as good as the early PS4 Ratchets. In any case one of my most anticipated games of 2015 and a day 1 purchase.
Naughty Dog is too busy with Uncharted and such.
Ready At Dawn has proven itself with Daxter for PSP.
I hope the game doesn't just follow the movie's plot
I agree with this man.I never understood why Sony keeps pushing Ratchet and Clank instead of making a new Tomba! Makes no sense at all.

i just hope they improve the actual platforming segments and mechanics. I felt it was always the worst out of Sly and Jak when it came to platforming
Better be a solid 30fps like SO, not 20-30 like Into The Nexus.
It's a good thing the series is more about blowing stuff up and evolving weapons. The platforming could always be better, but that's really never been a R&C focus.
The puzzles in R&C are definitely the best between Ratchet, Sly and Jak. Each game has a new type of puzzle that scales difficulty well, ranging from interesting change of pace to legitimately challenging. I never see the series get acknowledgement for that.
Because Ratchet & Clank is objectively better than Jak & Dexter.
Not at all. Welcome to the incredible world of Insomniac. Their R&C games are superb.
