Insomniac games needs to redefine itself with a new ip

Insomniac games really milks their franchises to dust. They were considered 2 years ago the strongest developer sony has, and now is one of the weaker developers. Naughty Dog has created the highest scoring next gen game outside of super mario galaxy and gta 4. Media molecule created littlebigplanet. Insomnikac doesn't have an ip that has as big of an impact as either of these companies and resistance 2 killed their only franchise that has a chance of becoming a huge franchise. Insomniac needs to both redefine the resistance franchise, and create another franchise that isn't a tier 2 franchise. Have a 2 year cycle in which you make AAA games every year, instead of 2 AA games every 2 years.

INSOMNIAC has created from their amazing talent pool and given gamers around the world :

Disruptor

SPYRO Series

Ratchet Series

Resistance Series

I think that's pretty awesome. People usually have played one of these three games.

That being said, I would love new IP's from all my favorite developers, Insomniac included.

They are dropping RATCHET after their SECOND RETAIL PS3 RATCHET Game, so perhaps, they will give us a new IP...

They're actually making a new IP at their newly opened studio.

I dont think they are giving the IP to another dev just giving it a well deserved rest. Plus I dont get the complants. I mean its not like every R&C game they put out is a POS they are great games. I do however would like a new IP that isint a fps. I would like a action platformer to take over R&C while they are resting or maybe an rpg. That would be kinda cool to see them take a stab at that.

Agreed. Insomniac bores me at the moment when the rest of the Sony studios have pushed up the quality by such a huge notch these past two years. I'd love to see them make something completely new and different.

I done have a problem with the milkage if its an IP people enjoy. Unfortunately im not fond of the shooting aspect of R&C. I just want a 3D platformer like Spyro or Crash!!Indie_Hitman

I'd like to see resistance 3 because it has the potential to be great, but after that a new original AAA IP would be great.

Ratchet and Clank has had a good run but i wouldnt miss further games.

Insomniac are talented and experienced developers. They have a lot of potential which is why I think whatever new IP they bring will be awesome.

Insomniac is an excellent developer with two great series. R&C may have lots of games in the series but when the games are good no one is complaining. Insomniac also openned a new studio in NC that is supposedly working on a WRPG that is based on new ip. You'd be hard pressed to find a studio more consistently good and efficient as Insomniac

I think Insomniac has one of the more diverse portfolios in camparison with their counterparts. The have a solid resume with the Ratchet series and Resistance on the PS# as well as previous success such as Spyro. I am, though, looking forward to their future endeavors.

Insomniac has consistently released great games every year since the PS3 has released. I see nothing wrong with what they're doing.TheRapture

What about Bungie with Halo? That hasn't been milked? R&C is a great series, every game is original and different, Halo, well not really.

What's wrong with giving fans of a particular game series what they want? Nintendo has done this for decades with Mario, Zelda, Pokemon, etc. Like them or not they have been good to their fan base. Same can be said for Bungie or Blizzard. I mean when was the last Blizzard game that was all new & original? And how about those clowns at Valve. If it's not an FPS they won't go near it. Nothing wrong with giving fans of your games fan service.

This seems to be the age of delays and cancellations, so I don't complain when Insomniac puts out a good game every year like clockwork. It may not be "Z0MgZ!! innovation and perfect!!!," but you know what you're getting and when you're getting it. I find that comforting.
