Ratchet & Clank Dev Debates Graphics vs. Framerate, 'Probably' Not Making More 60 FPS

Following an analysis of review scores and the value of a fast framerate over graphic quality, Insomniac has stated that just-released platformer Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time (PS3) is "probably" its last game to run at 60 frames per second.

What a shame

60 FPS games are normally awesome to play, it has a great smooth feeling and the controls are easy to maneuver.

They chose Graphics awesomeness over smooth gameplay , that's IMO a silly decision. They should have researched into ways to utilize the full horse power of the console without affecting frame rates .

Well it's not magic... If there isn't anymore significant to get out of the console, they have to make a choice. Go for 30+ fps and more details, or the smoother gameplay with 60 fps. And since the titles with really good IQ sells more then 60 fps games, it's hard to blame them.
