"it’s been fantastic to have a partner who enthusiastically supports a super stylized aesthetic, humor and rockinf--kingroll attitude."
Rippin' EA a new one. Love it. They were fools for partnering with EA in the first place. But better fools who've opened their eyes than fools to are too stubborn to accept the error of their ways. I now have the strong feeling that Insomniac deliberately pooped in EA's nest so that EA would invoke the no-compensation exit clause in their agreement.
But my, how the worm has turned. Good luck to them. In general they have a pretty loyal fanbase on Sony even if their last 2 Ratchet and Clank games were poorly received. A proper new R&C game would sell well. In the MS crowd they have no history so they are virtually starting from scratch. I get the feeling the end of the Sony/Insomniac relationship was less amicable than their PR teams made out.
Only on Xbone huh? How's that? There's no such thing as the cloud on PC? Sony have come out and said cloud processing is totally available on PS4, it's just not central to the platform. Publishers might need their own servers, or engage 3rd party server farms for PS4 cloud processing, So MS has done publishers a good turn by putting the processing servers in house. But that doesn't make it only possible on Xbone. It makes it easier to do, and less costly to maintain for publishers, which is a good reason to go with Xbone exclusivity, but let's not overstate things.
Insomniac: openly burning bridges since 2013.
