What Does Hiring a Different Hero Get Me?

Question

(Question title and tags were inspired by another question)

I'm about to start my first game, and I noticed I can choose to play as Ratchet, Clank, Captain Qwark, or Dr. Nefarious.

Is this just a cosmetic choice, or are there actual gameplay differences depending on which character I choose?

Each hero has a unique weapon that only he can use:

Ratchet: the doppelbanger same as the Decoy Glove from the first and second games throw out a dummy to distract the enemies
Clank: zoni blaster slows down time
Qwark: quantum deflector is an ultimate defense and great for rushing in to smash everything
Nefarious: cloaker lets you become invisible

	When do you get these weapons? – user2974 Oct 25 '11 at 22:42
	as you play along normally early to midway through but I'd have to check exactly when – ratchet freak Oct 25 '11 at 22:46
