It's a newer build, but it's pretty much identical. I'd rather free up the 1.6 GB on my hard drive and just play the disc demo.

HOLY HELL... this is even better than the already stellar gamestop demo! This game can't come sooner.

I played through the PSN demo once, and I SHAT MY PANTS EVERY 10 SECONDS! SOMEONE WIPE MY ASS.
My jaw dropped when the game finally started. It looks like a movie, and sounds absolutely FANTASTIC. My HT got a good workout.
I spent most of my time jumping up on ledges and other platforms to get a better look at the surrounding city. It actually felt ALIVE. Besides that, every edge was SMOOTH. I'm sure there are bits that aren't, but what I could see was fine, fine, fine.
The Groovatron rocks. I only used it once, but it was damn cool. I almost forgot to take out the enemies because I was mesmerized by their dancing.
I really liked how the enemies looked so organic; so alive. The way they animated was super smooth - it added a lot to feeling like a real world.
So much shit happening all around, and it never slowed down. I did notice some stuttering when panning around, but not when chucking grenades at the enemies and blowing up everything that moved. Nice.
I loved the new crates - they felt real! Again, the animation was the key.
I have to play this many more times to get a feel for all of the weapons in the demo. I want to check out the grind rail sections again - WOWSOME.
FIRST DAY PURCHASE!! I CANNOT WAIT!!

It's definitely tighter than the disc demo. Lots of little refinements that add up. Cleaned up several hitches in the camera movement, tweaked the onscreen help so it doesn't come up at odd times, better framerate of course, groovitron now plays different music each time you throw it out, stepping on the fish guys when their out of their bowls know squishes them, etc.msdstc said:
On the flip side, they seemed to have scaled back the pace of weapon upgrades.
P.S
If you leave it on the start menu for a while it plays a trailer. You see new weapons, enemies, bosses, Ratchet Flying using these wing things, Ratchet in this spherical ball case rolling around this slide, a new lava level, the fighter jet side game and other generally cool stuff. So check it out!

Didn't someone on GAF play this game in its entirety and review it?
TT or something I think was his name.
How does the entire game stack up to the first level? First level seemed a bit basic, simple, and easy...how much better does the game end up getting from the very linear first level?
If it progresses anything like Resistance, I think we're in for a treat, but this is my only concern after playing the demo.
OH, also the SixAxis implementation in this game is the best I've seen yet. It actually doesn't feel completely floaty and works perfectly.

If it's anything like Ratchet & Clank 3, it'll be linear mostly, i.e. you will be able to revisit areas, do optional side-quests when you want, not when they become available, but the main game will be one directed path.
The first level being easy is also par for the course. There's no separate tutorial, so this is where new players can/have to get familiar with the controls. Do expect the difficulty to ramp up from there.

That and there is a boss too. It's a taste. It works in acquainting you with the controls and mechanics.kaching said:

to answersome questions (on my cell waiting for friends):
no J-Ratchet unless you have J-region PS3. Sorry. You can still switch to Japanese langugage, which I think is the funniest part anyway with the great voice acting.
as far as levels, all along we have stressed variety. so some are somewhat liner like metropolis, others are wide open like Sargasso and Stratus, and others have large battlefields like Rykan V, and others are combinations.
oh, and i was challenged by the last few levels at times, and challenge mode is TOUGH.

I have no fucking words. o_0
The PS3 is a beast, and this game on its own shows why we need every bit of power the PS3/360 have to offer.
Fuck dithering. Fuck low poly models. Fuck last gen tech right in its ass.
This demo was flat out perfection. And coming off of Resistance, Insomniac wins this gen so far.
I CAN'T FIND MY FUCKING MEDICATION!!!!

Haha true :lol
I am yet to play the demo as I'm at work, but my mate is at my place and he downloaded the demo for me, and this is his response in a txt he sent me
"OHHHHHHHHHHH MAAAAAAAAAAAAAA GAWWWWWWWWWWWWD"
so i take it he liked it
I really cant wait to see what Insomniac does with resistance 2 :O
Insomniac wins this gen indeed.

Hold on, I'm confused -- all languages/versions are on the BD, correct?
Also, J-Ratchet will appear if I put the US BD into my Japanese PS3? That's cool... unlike how Japanese PS3s remove the blood from Resistance
edit: Holy nutsacks I just tried the PSN demo, this poops all over Resistance technically

Id like to think with this game it's OMGWTFBBQ the whole time. But that's just me.
This game is going to be soooooo good it hurts. No, seriously... I'm either more tired than I thought I was or my eyes are watering from the 60fps goodness before me. Such a flexible engine they have here. The slight flatness texture wise is more than made up for with the high level of AA (4x again, right?), geometry, effects, animation and the shear scope of things happening at once. Wow. This is why you buy/compile good developers, nurture them properly and do everything possible to keep the talent aboard. How many 3rd party wares are even close to this or Uncharted?
If that's co-op I see in the "coming atractions" reel... :O
Only thing I can ask for would be better camera controls. I understand the fixed sequences, but I'd like to be able to see more of my environment in the standard settings. Overhead, jumping, the works. Also, my pad went haywire twice during the demo. Once at the very begining causing me to run in circles uncontrollably and then during the traffic fall - of all places - where it turned off and I lost control until I had to power it back up. I haven't had a single bluetooth issue in months so I'll just chalk this up to a WIP demo build.
In light of everything going on the slowdown is really a non-issue. I was hoping for 60fps all this time and it's good to see that we're getting it.
