Ratchet and Clank is boring and Sly Cooper is slightly above average, definately not comparable to Mario Sunshine.
"Ratchet and Clank is a genuinely enjoyable experience, even if it's neither the most innovative nor original one I've ever had." ~Douglass Perry, IGN
"While many of the (Sly Cooper) gameplay techniques are derived from Mario-style gameplay, the game design in part follows a more Crash Bandicoot style.... I beat the game in less than 12 hours." ~Douglass Perry, IGN
I'd go look up more stuff about these games but the point i'm trying to make is moot anyway. You have said many times that you simply despise platformers and then tell people that Playstation's platformers are the best when they clearly are not. Be it from opinion or factual data.
And isn't it obvious that one would assume that the gaming system that is easily 10 times as powerful as another would have a better looking game? Of course it's up to the developers but the potential is definately there. Burnout 2 may end up looking the best on PS2 than all other versions (GC and XBox) but seeing as how the Playstation 2 is by far the weakest console on the market, I tend to doubt it.
Finally you say you dont understand why a certain game or series should be on one system or another. This is because of your lack of understanding in the more hardcore realms of video gaming. The super nerds and geeks (like me) who know how wrong it is to see a Final Fantasy game on a system other than Nintendo; The same goes for Ghosts N'Goblins and it's series. It was primarily a Nintendo staple. Rygar, which saw one game eons ago, was another Nintendo staple albeit a cult hit. I never said anything about sales. They should have been on a Nintendo system simply because they deserved to be.
