Well, let's see what happens if Insomniac wants to do a sequel to SO and asks MS for funding again...

What do you imply? MS not interested in a successor? Not interested in spending money for a sequel? Why not? Based on what?

No, I'm saying that if the game turns out like Ryse from a sales perspective, then I don't see why MS would fund another one without getting more control over the IP, if the game turns out a huge success, then I'm sure they'll fund a sequel no matter what. Btw I think Sony would do the same.

Of course they would ;) And it would be totally rational to do so. Given the attention SO has currently I hope the game sells well - both for MS and Insomniac to strengthen the competition.
