It appears Insomniac won't be making another Resistance game after R3.

http://www.gamingunion.net/news/insomniac-sees-resistance-going-to-another-developer--6177.html

Here is a sample of the interview:

Gaming Union: "Insomniac seems pretty busy at the moment - Ratchet & Clank is going strong, OverStrike is on the way, etc.. Is Resistance still your flagship franchise? Where does the series fit in the studio's future plans?"

Marcus Smith: "As far as Insomniac goes... you're right. We've got three different games with very different focuses. We're kind of going in a lot of different directions. Ted Price, Alex and Brian Hastings, the owners, have been doing this for a long time - something like 15 years of doing Sony exclusive games - and they're just interested in doing other things."

What does that mean? Insomniac is one of the main reasons I bought a PS3 but if they went with a third party publisher (Multiplat) or went to work on a Nintendo or Microsoft title. Then the PS4 would be a much tougher sell to me.

Although I can't say I wouldn't welcome Insomniac going multiplat or working on another platform. As it would make the decision not to buy a Sony console way easier. Leaving just Naughty Dog since those two developers and their properties are the only reason I have ever bought Sony consoles(pretty much).

Heck Spyro and Crash were the only PlayStation One games I really enjoyed. A loss of Insomniac exclusivity would really hurt my support for Sony. What little support I have is largely based on those two developers and the loss of one would halve that support.

I wonder if this is a misquote or taken out of context. If not Sony should be scared. Unless like Microsoft's loss of Bungie , Insomniac continues to make titles for Sony platforms they just go multiplat or exclusively with another publisher!
