They aren't awful, but they certainly haven't been living up to the name they previously built for themselves. Fuse wasn't the only title people disliked, 2 of the 3 recent R&C games were rather mediocre and the third didn't hit the standards many were hoping for from a new proper (though shorter) title.

It's been several years since they had a really good game, as appose to previously where they seemed to make nothing else but good games.

None of that mean SO will be bad, and i do think some people (myself included sometimes) can be a bit harsh to them, but there are valid reasons for the slack insomniac has gotten recently.

Yeah I can certainly agree with that. No doubt about it.

I just think Crack in Time is one of the best platform / shooters I've ever played and so far everything they've shown from SO looks like a return to form in the best possible ways.

I just think it would be silly to write off Sunset just because its an Insomniac game and they haven't been as good lately as they once were. I never got the feeling of pride / accomplishment from them when they were talking about FUSE or some of their other titles recently. They really seem high on Sunset though and seem fully committed to releasing an amazing title.

i've got to agree with zekkyou here.  R&C all for one was terrible.  R&C full frontal assult was bad.   R&C into the nexus was okay.  fuse was supposed to be terrible.   resistance wasn't very good. 

honestly R&C at it's best had a very niche audience to begin with.

i have a lot of naustalgia for insomniac,.. they've made a few real gems.   but it's been 5 years since their last good game with 6 duds after it.   it's been 12 years since they've made a good game not on sony's R&C ip.  they've just lost my confidence in them.  ...and this trailer isn't helping to change my mind either.
