Which is why I'm not going for it either way  

It's Steam, GoG, b.net, Switch or nowt.

Ah k, so it has to be on a service you like. Being able to play it on pc doesn't matter much xD

I know you never said it wasn't , but it being on 360 never meant that it hurt the game itself, it was just a badly made one. 

The thing is, is that going off by what you're saying, it sounds like there is 110% zero chances of Insomniac ever, ever making a good game that isn't held as Sony exclusive. I for one do not believe that and to base it all on chances (because we've yet to see their track record outside of Sony in full swing, because they have made more for Sony than anyone else and that means their track record outside of Sony is as of this time of writing, not in full swing) of a good game not happening outside of Sony to being just a tad absurd.

The thing is, R&C and Spiderman were already exclusive, we know this, but SO isn't exclusive to Sony, so having 2 suddenly go exclusive to Sony would just mean that other players on Xbox would be denied a proper sequel and PC players being denied both games. I'd rather see someone fund them that isn't Sony, so that a sequel can be played across multiple platforms (I know one user on here thinks that's my ultimate ruse excuse, but I am legit sincere about that desire).

They could work with Nintendo, but I'd honestly like to see what they can do with PC, PS4 and X1 than another console exclusive. I actually want to play an Insomniac game on my PC for once  

Yeah a lot of people that didn't even bought SO1 will miss the sequel, because you can be certain that if MS didn't fund a sequel nor did Insomniac actively pursued a publisher for it the game didn't sell great. So there isn't really that many people anxious for the sequel.

We don't even know if MS will/will not fund a sequel though. We are not seers into the future after all.

Insomniac just go with whatever funds they are given, rather than the type that always goes hand over foot to a publisher to get their own games done.

Again, claiming zero people are wanting a sequel is rather absurd to think.

There are more factors to consider than sales. There are 1.16m physical sales here on VGC, probably at least 25% digital sales (console digital was around 25% back in 2014, over 40% now), which brings it up to around 1.7m sales. In addition, Sunset was on Games With Gold, where it most likely got at least 800k additional downloads. It is also on Gamepass now, where I wouldn't be surprised if it got at least another 400k players. So all in all I'd bet that the game has been played by at least 3m players, of which probably at least 75% would play a sequel if they released one.  I could easily see MS funding Sunset 2 for next gen, there is definite potential for the IP to grow in the future. 

I don't see how that is padding. There have been indie devs that have announced that their games got 500k+ downloads on Games With Gold, it's reasonable to expect that a AAA exclusive like Sunset Overdrive on Games With Gold would get at least 800k downloads, honestly probably more than that. As for Gamepass, Sunset has been on the service for over a year now, and MS literally paid for a commercial to advertise the fact that Sunset was on Gamepass, I think 400k additional players in that amount of time is a lowball estimate honestly. MS definitely takes Gamepass players into consideration when they are determining rather or not a release was successful, it's why they now release player counts instead of sales for their exclusives these days. 

We don't know why they haven't funded it yet, we don't even know for a fact that it hasn't been funded yet, as MS could have funded it sometime after Xbox was given a larger budget last year. Maybe they were waiting for Insomniac to finish Spiderman because they wanted Insomniac's A team to develop it instead of their B team? Maybe they were waiting for next-gen because they want it to have more of an impact? What we do know for sure is that MS paid for Sunset Overdrive commercials in 2017, 3 years after the game released, to advertise that it was on Gamepass. We also know that a PC version was rated by the Korean rating board back in May 2018, suggesting that MS plans to release it on PC in the near future. If you ask me those are both positive signs that MS has plans for the franchise in the future. 

If they wanted to fund a sequel that would happened years ago.

No, they don't go with whatever (can you prove your claim?) they pitched the SO themselves to different publishers and they decided for MS (because Sony wanted to retain the IP).

Not claimed ZERO people. I said there aren't that many considering the sales.

This is a 2 year old thread. As far as I know at least, Insomniac has not said that Sunset wasn't in development recently.

I never said that 75% would buy a sequel, I said that at least 75% would play a sequel if they made one. With Sunset 2 on Gamepass from day one like all other 1st/2nd party Xbox exclusives, I'm 90% certain that the player count for Sunset 2 would at least hit 2.5m lifetime, probably a good bit more than that. Heck, State of Decay 2 hit 3m players in just 5 weeks. Day one Gamepass is a big deal for sure, it basically assures that player counts will at least double what the sales would have been prior to Gamepass. 

You don't need to quickly pump out another sequel shortly after the first one. The last thing they need is saturation to set in. I'm fine waiting 4-5 years for a sequel, rather than this silly warped CoD like ideal where all games should magically take 1 and a half years to develop. Just look at Kojima spending his time making the games he's made over the years. Definitely not CoD like development speed that's for sure.  

They do, hence the funding given to them in the first place for their own IP, as well as funding in general to make games. IF they had no funding for anything, they'd be out of a job. Can you prove your claim that zero people on this earth not wanting a sequel to SO?.
