Insomniac now Multiplatform devs confirmed

Insomniac Games is excited to announce that we are working on a new IP, that will be published by EA Partners on Xbox 360 and PS3. #fb

The new IP will be shooty. That much is true.

its great that Insomniac is going on 360..they deserve it..

I guess you didn't read this: "Our relationship with Sony Computer Entertainment is still very strong, and continues as we develop additional projects exclusively for PlayStation 3 - projects that will take full advantage of our additional development time."darthogre

Maybe now they'll create something original.sammyjenkis898

Yeah, because that's what the 360 is known for this gen, its original games...

Excited about any new IP fom Insomniac though, because contrary to most here, apparently, I like their games.

From a business perspective it's a very sensible move I'd say. If I'd be responsible for any dev's business decisions I'd be going for multiplats by definition. There are hardly any commercially sound reasons I can think of not to.

edit: spelling

INB4 Lems who think Resistance is "generic" and Ratchet & Clank is a "kiddie, inferior platformer" suddenly get excited about this "mediocre" devs games. ... or am I too late?Hahadouken

I enjoyed both the Resistance and Rachet series so I hope these games continue to get pumped out by Insomniac as I have really enjoyed them.

I seriously wonder if Insomniac will get as much **** from Sony fanboys as SE did for committing the oh so evil sin of going multiplat.

I own resistance IMO not that great of a game. R&C are good though. I wonder who owns the rights to though games.

You never know.

Actually, I was just trying to make a little jab at Insomniac. They've been making rehashes for years and I'm hoping this will change that; it's doubtful.

I really doubt anybody is really getting excited about Insomniac's middle of the road games. Lems are getting excited at the opportunity to try and manufacture some artificial ownage.

This probably has something to do with all the "Exclusives are a thing of the past -Sony" news.

They're both Sony-owned IPs IIRC.

Yeah their "middle of the road" games with ~90 Metacritic averages. :roll:

So, another one bites the dust

I wonder how many exlcusives PS3 has left anymore

Square - 360

Insomniac - 360

MGS - 360

There is not much left

Sony still has a pretty robust set of 1st Party development studios which which will continue to create quality exclusives as they have done all this gen.

But as far as 3rd party exclusivity goes,yeah you're right, they're almost extinct on the HD consoles.

I am eager to see what they come up with. I just hope it's good.

Meh,pity it wasn't ND instead of Insomniac.

I don't much care for Insomniac's antiquated and uninspired offerings this gen.

Still another one bites the dust. :)

I don't really care about MC averages. I will admit that the middle of the road part was merely my opinion (though I'm certainly not alone in thinking this). My real point was that nobody is super excited as you would like to think as Insomniac's games are hardly coveted on SW. It's more about the ownage.
