It's not really fair to call it a Ratchet and Clank redux. Although I agree with Insomniac that Nintendo "borrowed" a few gameplay mechanics from Ratchet and Clank, the way the games are actually played are very different. Ratchet and Clank doesn't focus on the platforming aspect like Mario does, it focuses more on the third-person shooting and killing enemies aspect. When I play Ratchet and Clank, I feel like I'm playing a frantic shooter, almost like Serious Sam. Super Mario Galaxy feels completely different to me, although that's just my opinion. Pretty much every 3D platformer since 1996 is technically a Mario 64 ripoff anyway.
