Does It Matter?

I liked the other 3 Ratchet & Clank games, but either games have gotten so good lately that this one seems outdated, or they just skimped on this game to push it out the door quicker.. There's just not a real plot here, you get big, or little, but if you skip the cinematics you would never know any of the shrinky-dink stuff. Not much challenge, or incentive to play the game well. I mean, so what if you dont have the armor kits or various combos equipped, just shoot the bad guys. Oh, you died? No biggie, there's no limit to lives and you just blast and level up your weapons some more. And by the time you get them leveled up(esp the RYNOCERATOR) youre so sick of beating the game over and over that its not any fun. And your big reward for leveling up the weapons is boring, one-shot-kills-everything-on-screen gameplay. Yeah, the big final boss takes like 6 whole shots with the Ryno, and you dont even have to dodge his fire- literally just stand there and press X till he's dead and you win (yet again, yay). Finding all the titanium bolts sound like fun? Maybe, until you find that they're only good for lame 'costumes'. Run around and earn money to buy weapons and its boring already. Use the new, expensive weapons, and its even more boring. It might be a good temp babysitter for your 6 year old, but even a 6 year old deserves incentive and reward for exhibiting skill in gameplay, and this game offers none. By the time you've reached the big levels, you can literally beat this game with your feet on the controller. I know, because I did, and I can send you a video to prove it. A hammer or potatoe would work just as well if you want to keep your shoes on. It just doesnt take any dexterity to mash the X button like a 2 yr old in tantrum.
And the dialogue doesnt seem to possess that fun wit and banter that the first 3 had. The voices sound like a BAD mp3, with flat graphics to match.
