Like the OP's other thread, I also adore this game. There was just something that made it click for me, even if I only bought it initially for Uncharted 2 beta access. The problem is, it just never gained great traction sales wise, so it isn't as important as Sony's other franchises
Out of those franchises, I think only Killzone should really continue. Resistance was never a big seller after the first one and I personally never bothered to play the 2nd (it is sitting over to my left barely touched) though I am certainly tempted after the good reception of the 3rd. I said many times on this forum that I feel Kratos has had his time, but he does sell....
Anyway, I feel Sony did a great job introducing new and interesting franchises from their 1st and 3rd party studios (though of course, now Sucker Punch is 1st party and Insomniac not even 3rd party) and I hope they do the same again this gen. It is rare that series actually justify more than about 3 games, there are only so many things you can do apart from just changing characters. It is probably good for the studios to have a bit of change as well
Of course, new IPs are far more risky than sequels, but Sony has generally kept a good balance |
I think Sony should focus on just making 1 of each of their franchises for each generation.
I just atleast want to be able to play 1 Resistance for PS4. I feel like we didn't need that many Ratchet and Clank games this gen. All we need is 1 installment from each of their franchises. They should just pump each game with quality and release it with good advertising and just let it sell for the whole generation.

Ratchet and Clank is my favorite series ever but those last 2 shouldn't have ever happened. They've uselessly fatigued the series with move/family/tower defense games and I hate the direction. ACiT is my favorite game this gen and possibly my favorite ever. It sold better than either of the last 2 so I'm not sure what their deal was with switching to that style but it backfired. They should just make one next gen and take their time to send the series off on a high note by concluding the Lombax story. Please Insomniac, no more BSing the fans with these crappy spin offs and bastardizations of your beloved IP.
