my icon is so ridiculously relevant to this post it amuses me too much to not use it ok.
BUT........ Let me start from the start. I set up my twitter to send me Insomniac Games's tweets to my phone because I am
Starting with this one.
I shat bricks.
Insomniac has been Sony's beef since ps1 days (Spyro the Dragon). THIS IS SO WEIRD AHHHHH. but then of course I got mega butthurt because I assumed this meant no Resistance
Also here is the blog post that started this announcement.
And you know what happens when I get butthurt about things, right? That's right! I post 9000+ updates on Twitter!!
Also I had read This Kotaku article from my phone.
Which clears up a lot of it, mostly this bit interested me:
We've heard that Insomniac Games has agreed to produce at least one more Ratchet & Clank title and perhaps two more Resistance games. Price declined to confirm those details, but did verify that his company is still working on both franchises.
Oh goodie. Also this apparently isn't going to be announced at E3. So uhm, Resistance 3, can you make an appearance? Please please. Though I suppose the blog I linked earlier on the in the post pretty much confirms Resistance 3 won't be out this year. As they talk suddenly about needing longer development cycles for their games, and it's been a ridiculously long time for Insomniac to have waited to announce something. The pieces really fit, which is really sad for me, since I had been looking forward to Resistance 3 so much.
Also I accidentally promise insomniac I would get their new IP game on launch day:





........
Also seriously every game ever is being announced before R3 i swear. IF E3 COMES AND GOES WITH NO WORD FROM INSOMNIAC I WILL PUNT A WALL.
Here is another interesting Kotaku article about this.
Oh oh and here is a very important vidya from Ted Price (the CEO/President of Insomniac Games) click here to view it (or you're not my friend anymore)
He totally said in the upcoming months news about our upcoming gameS. YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS!?1/1/lkDSJdioDS HOISJdsjidskihf osdh0gdsjifl
I hope it's R3 and what this new IP is gdi. :I I NEED TO KNOW THIS, THIS IS IMPORTANT.

i kinda feed off of it.
i guess im kindof parasitic and you are my host?
I DEE KAY!
Man though, this is all so exciting! :'D I'm interested to see what this new IP will be, ngl. I'm def glad it's multiplat though, cuz if it was 360-only I would cry for my 360 being borked. ;___; I hope they do try a new genre though, I mean they already did that with Resistance soooooooo
rpg plzI mean what.I can see where they're coming from with the longer dev times though. I mean, Insomniac is awesome and all but they probs do need more time to lovingly craft their games u noe? :U I'm used to waiting several years between games thanks to SE
I can't afford anything anyway lolbut lmao THIS MUST BE WEIRD FOR YOU D:Pshhhhhhhhh this is exciting though man, even if there will be a wait on it. I JUST HOPE INSOMNIAC WILL REVEAL SOME INFO SOON GEEEEEEEZ ;3; Maybe at E3? ffff
A new genre would be interesting, but honestly I think anything Insomniac does would be awesome....
plus i already said i would buy it so it better be lolololYea... I know what you mean...longer dev time does mean a more polished game (like r2 had such a short 1p mode it was sad :[) and it is ridic for any game dev to pump out a game in a year, and especially one of Insomniac's quality. So I can just assume this means even better stuff from them. C: I AM EXCITE (to say the least lolz)
ffffff i know. They said this new IP won't be announced at E3, which is why they announced it today, I guess, maybe that's because they wanted to give some buffer room between now and when R3 is announced? y/y? :D
Most of the games I like are so mainstream that they're bound to get sequels eventually.
Though if they ever made a Billy Hatcher sequel...
even though I haven't played Ratchet and Clank outside of one PSN demo (shhhhhhhh)I agree about the mainstream/sequel thing anyway. I MEAN IDK. Most of the games I like end up getting strings of sequels, but generally its because they have solid publishers/developers (insomniac/suckerpunch w/ sony for instance) BUT FFFFFF. yeah.
Hahaha wasn't billy hatcher done by sonic team?
..........do you really trust sonic team anymore?
i mean really.
