Forums - Gaming - Insomniac Games Loves “Microsoft & Sony Fans Equally;” Sunset Overdrive and Resistance 3 Share Directors

yeah with a turd like fuse. anyways....

get back to what ur good at insomniac and gimme some more ratchet and clank, some jak and daxter, not sure who owns crash bandicoot lately sony or activision, but that would be a nice return and insomniac would be a good dev for it if in fact activision does own it and doesnt want to develop it.

I've loved you for longer, Insomniac, and I demand more love in return.

Still, the carrot they keep dangling about Ratchet & Clank PS4 keeps me going.

Would Ubisoft let them keep the IP? If so, they might have gone that route were it available.

Working with MS allowed Insomniac to create their vision and keep it. That's the same reason Remedy has continued to work with MS.

The point is there are many publishers who are platform agnostic, if they really cared equally then they wouldn't sell exclusivity so easily.

Maybe they had to sell exclusivity or sell the IP.

Sony and other studios already got a few IPs out of Insomniac. God forbid they make a decision that lets them keep something.

So what you're saying is they love their IP more than their fans?



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Maybe the fans need to show some love and support the studio regardless of the platform. Get two jobs and buy a PS4 and X1.

I'll buy ANY platform where I can find Halo, Gears, and Shenmue 3. That's what a real fan does, not piss and moan.

I'm disappointed a few Sonic games are exclusive to Wii U, but I understand Sega needs to make decisions that helps them stay in business.

Keeping their games from being enjoyed by both fan bases is a strange way to show love for them.


Without a publisher (Microsoft) there wouldn't be anyone enjoying their games...

So their love is all about money. Whoever pitches in the most gets the most love. First Sony, then Microsoft.

Every single developer out there, including the ones that about to start developing too. Are doing it for the money. Just so you know.

OT:

Whats all this talk about hugging, holding hands and singing cumbaya???????? No, no, no and no dammit!! At this rate Sony and MS would be having dinner talks to settle on prices and features and a non-compete clause for their future consoles.

Never, CRY HAVOC and let slip the dogs of war!!!!

Fuck all this peace talk..... sigh, war has changed.



LOL Funny, it doesn't sound like they want Sony in that group hug.
