Don't get me wrong, I think Insomniac is a great studio. However, they aren't better than Playground games, Ninja Theory and Obsidian combined.

It has been a very significant studio for PlayStation exclusives, this makes sense. But I'm not gonna pretend their games have been industry defining.

Yeah I mean the one real big hit they had was a licensed superhero game. Any time you can snag a studio with talent it’s a big deal, but nothing changes much for gamers because they were already a de facto standard PS exclusive company. At least now people can stop worrying about a Sunset 2 that wasn’t coming anyway.

I don’t see Control lighting up sales charts, wouldn’t be surprised to see them snatch up Remedy either. They fit the design of Sony games nowadays.

The rumors are pointing towards them buying up Remedy, and a couple of other studios. I think in the coming months they'll announce a couple more buy outs.
