Is Insomniac The New Rare?

Insomniac is good but not nearly as good or relevant to the industry as rare was in the mid 90s.

Rare today is still in the top tier of devs so this writer is full of it...article writer sounds like a bitter Nintendo fan that is sad he only gets 4 good games a year...all made by Nintendo. He'd prolly take Kamoe and Perfect Dark Zero with open arms for the Wii...yet hes bitching about Rare.

 

rare back then was amazing, what they did with the megadrive still stands till this day as a towering achievment.

they took gunstar herous and did the snes style "mode7" effects, i can remeber when they announced gunstar heroes meanmachines said they dont think the megadrive could do that without a modchip in the cart.

with scaling and rotation just like in snes games, and with more sprites on screen, gunstar heroes was phenominal in its day better than super probotector(contra3 in the us)
