I'd see that as Sony dodging a bullet then a missed opportunity, given Insomniacs painful decent into mediocrity over the past decade. They're a large studio too. It would be better for Sony to focus on smaller, very talented teams. We'll see how The Order turns out, but RAD fit the bill in terms of studios Sony like to pick up. |
While I agree that Insomniac is certainly declining (while ND show their true quality), Sony isn't really buying that small studios. In fact, they're expanding all their internal studios. ND has gone 2 teams, Guerllia is pretty big, SCE Santa Monica is pretty large too. Sucker Punch is quite small, but expanding rapidly.
If anything, Sony are trying to get a smaller portpholio of larger studios
