Sony has purchased the California-based game studio Insomniac Games, best known for last year’s Spider-Man on PS4. Insomniac will become an exclusive PlayStation developer, Sony says.

Insomniac is also the creator of Ratchet & Clank, Resistance, and Sunset Overdrive, an Xbox exclusive that probably won’t be getting any sequels.

Other than Forza I can't think of a single noteworthy franchise they have. Xbox I mean not playground games

Unfortunate for them they bought some studios (Obsidian) which are still finishing up their current game, so it will be a few years before we start seeing meaningful output from their recent acquisitions.

Going by this generation Sony's first party is collectively incapable of making a first person shooter now, let alone a good one :hah: (unless you count ShadowFall as a good game lol)
Yeah, which is more the reason why they should bring back Resistance because that franchise has a lot of potential and presumably a good fan base that'll turn a new game into a success.

Resistance had a good ending with the third game, I would rather they invest in a new IP.

Though both their primary FPS studios (Insomniac and Guerilla) have found much more success making third person games. I doubt they're in a rush to go back to the FPS genre.

You're overestimating my MS Paint skills if you think I was going to spend time editing the logo positions on the base image :p

    I have heard that it is now unplayable in countries which do not support handful of third world countries not recognized by Sony like Pakistan. Steam is a true global platform.Then they cry that console gaming is dying.
