Aren't those games 2nd party? Just curious...

Why does it matter? Sony and NIntendo publish plenty of second party games and those are considered "Sony/Nintendo new IPs". 

As for Sunset Overdrive, Insomniac owns the IP, and that's why they went to MS. I honestly didn't know that until I looked it up just now. 

I was just asking a question I seriously didn't know the answer to. Oh and I didn't know SO was Insomniac's. I thought MS paid for that game.
