Yeah, you'd have to figure Crash isn't making A-B any money right now, so any deal Sony would give them would be better than no deal at all.


Yep, that's the way I see it too.  He's sitting there dormant - whatever Sony offer them for his use is better than what he's being used for now.  But ah well!

About Sonic: I have no idea I'm afraid.  Sega must just be more agreeable.  They do seem like a fairly nice company after all!

Probably why they shouldn't have gone with Activision. Activision wants only Call of Duty

Actually, Activision could return Spyro to Insomniac, couldn't they?


It's been published by EA.  Which is even more to the point, since EA are looking for the game that can topple COD's popularity... hence Battlefield; Medal of Honor's current direction etc.  Not necessarily saying that's what happened with Overstrike, but it certainly appears that way from the outside.

And yes, Activision could ask Insomniac to make Spyro.  They won't, though.  They've found a job for him in Skylanders which is making them a lot of money.  It's Crash who needs rebooting in some meaningful way (which is partially why I'm so miffed that they're being so arsey about him being in PSABR.  It's win-win for both sides.  Sony gets the character everyone wants; Activision get loads of publicity for him).

Yeah, you'd have to figure Crash isn't making A-B any money right now, so any deal Sony would give them would be better than no deal at all.

What offer did Nintendo make on Sonic? Sonic's way more popular than Crash right now, surely Sega had more leverage with him getting into Brawl.

How much would it cost them to buy Crash from Activision?

One BILLION dollars,

MWUAHAHAHAHAH

I get the impression that Insomniac is going down the same slippery slope Rare did.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Does Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games ring a bell?

Oh.

How in the hell did i forget that? I remember following that story...



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Goodbye Insomniac. They deserve to go down since they apparently still don't understand they are developing game that will flop so hard that few games have flopped so hard. These guys just don't get it. How can they not see how unattractive this game looks?

The old concept sucked, the old name "Overstrike" sucked, the new design sux and the name "Fuse" sux.

Here's a nice video from Insomniac about Fuse (with gameplay). Contains a few spoilers from early on in the game.

I would have been more terrified of the fact that I was revealing what looks to be another generic and bland shooter title.

I wish they would have put their development resources into something more... fresh than the shooter genre.


I have nothing left to say on the topic.

FPS I hate. No problem with 3rd person. This is less about the genre and about Insomniac still not learning anything. To think this company created Spyro the Dragon. Where is that type of imagination?
