I was severely disappointed in this one. For the $26 you could do worse, but this is definitely not a typical ratchet game. Way too much sacrificed for the sake of co-op.

Is it worth it when it hits like $20 if you don't want to do co-op?
I got it with the holiday PS3 bundle, and I wouldn't recommend paying over $15 for it. I know you aren't likely to find it that cheap, but its a pretty shitty game and its made mostly by new hires, not the old R&C team.
A Crack in Time is inifnitely better, and there are tons of better multiplayer games.

it will be that cheap eventually when it becomes a greatest hit considering it came bundled with all those holiday bundles.
Wow, it must not be doing too well sales-wise. I played the beta and thought it was pretty fun when people figured out what to do. I'd pick it up, but I have yet to finish A Crack In Time.
[quote name='FactionG']It saddens me they Insomniac's games didn't do so good this year...[/QUOTE]
Me too. I thought Resistance 3 was good, but I don't think it sold very well.

Yeah R3 had a great SP campaign that you could play offline and online co-op. My favorite of the series. They brought back the weapon wheel which made it lots of fun. I never really played the MP but I heard it was only average. I will wait on R&C A41 to go under $20 before picking it up. Good thing I didn't get it from Newegg for $48 at release(gave was never delivered and I got a refund).
Any idea when this deal is over? Little Big Planet 2 SE is also on sale for $35.
I had ordered R+C:A4O and LBP2:SE on Black Friday from some 3rd party merchants when everyone was selling them from the PS3 bundles for ~$30 each. I think one shipment is lost (It's been 3 weeks, but I have to wait 5 more days to request a refund). If it is indeed lost I'd like to grab them at this price, but I don't want to order these and then have that other order show up. :/
My 3 year old loves playing this game, which is the only reason why I considered it. However, I bought enough games this holiday season for him to enjoy, so I'm going to pick this up some time next year (probaby next Black Friday).
When I heard the concept behind the new one, I could easily tell it was going to be a stinker. Co-op is fun if you're sitting in the room with the person, but otherwise you're going to want SOME single player.
I remember playing a lot of Ratchet Deadlocked even though the game was far inferior to the first 3 games thanks to co-op. Is this game similar in quality?
The game isnt bad, its still a ratchet game.. kinda like sex, even when its bad, its still kinda good. With all the ps3 bundles copies sold though, Id imagine you will be able to get it a lot cheaper soon.
