Remedy might not be owned by MS but they are closer to being second party then third party since I can't see them making multiplatform games anytime soon. 

Sunset Overdrive is completly different from Ratchet and Clank so it would be kinda silly to assume that just because you like Sunset Overdrive you also would like Ratchet and Clank.  I liked Sunst Overdrive and I tried a couple of demos for Ratchet and Clank games and didn't really enjoyed them so I have no plans to actually ever try to play a full Ratchet and Clank game.

Ratchet and clank and Spider-Man full steam ahead for insomniac baby!! Good to be a PS4 owner ;)

So you are referring to third party developers. I thought you might of been getting confused that Remedy is owned by MS since Sony has a lot of console exclusives that are also on PC. The most notable one coming up No Mans Sky.

BTW do you think that only releasing on the Windows Stores for PC is a big draw anyway? If they made a game for Sony, Sony wouldn't have an issue if they released on Steam. So I actually think Sony would suit them more if you claim they like to release on PC.

"We finally have two teams, which has been a long-time goal for Remedy and we definitely want to make more games," said Johannes Paloheimo, Remedy’s business director. "We don’t want to take five years to ship a game. It’s been a long process, trying to transition into a two team studio, but now we can make more games faster and diversify both financially and creatively."

"The first game is in active development with a brand new partner, not long-time publisher Microsoft, and Paloheimo said it is a new IP, a AAA game, but declined to say much more than that."

"We have to respect our partner and it’s up to them to decide when they want to talk about the game," he said.

The other game is also AAA and is in the concept stage with no solid plans yet for how to publish it, Paloheimo said.

Sounds like Remedy is going multiplatform to me.

SO is very similar from gameplay,  to weapons,  to the graphics,  to the humour.  He would love it. 

He seems a big fan of insomniac now.  He really should get their other games on ps4, ratchet and the upcoming spiderman which looks epic.  they seem to be a ps4 exclusive dev again going forward.  Would be a shame if he missed out. 

I'm pretty sure that they are still going to make exclusive games for MS also so they are still closer to being second party then third party.

Lol. Are you kidding? It's the same studio, with very  similar gameplay. If ANYTHING Sunset Overdrive is like an open world Ratchet and Clank. You're just coming off like a fanboy now.

I'm not a fanboy the gameplay isn't very similar since Sunset Overdrive is a mixture of Jet Set/Grind Radio and Dead Rising and the Ratchet and Clank games are totally different you can't grind rails or do various other combo's in any of the Ratchet and Clank games.

MS had enough faith to fund their game and let Insomniac keep the IP. If Sony were willing to let Insomniac keep their IP, we probably don't even see SO on Xbone. Not pooing on Sony here, just stating facts.

I'm gonna agree with Chris regarding gameplay. The only real likeness they share are crazy weapons and collecting things. The core gameplay of SO is almost a score attack/time trial style, nothing like R&C in many aspects.
