INSOMNIAC Unannouced Secret {speculations}

[deadsoul]

i was checking insomniac newsletter (the old march one) and while i was reading i came across this :

There is some exciting unannounced Insomniac news coming in April, so keep checking back here and don’t miss out on one of the most rewarding projects we’ve had a chance to be a part of in our company’s history. Sorry, gotta keep that one secret for now…

That’s all for this month’s edition of the Buzz, but remember to check back throughout this month for new screens of Ratchet & Clank Future, our new podcasts, as well as info on our big project!

of course it has nothing to do with ratchet and clank!
so what could this project be?

lets hope they already have resistance 2 up and running, or maybe at least another new IP.............

[deadsoul]

resistance 2 would be amazing, i have such a tremendous respect to those quality Developers.

[-jinn-]

probably a playstation network title they've been working on

[-Zaku-]

I wonder if it's a new IP? Resistance 2 would seem 'too' soon.

[deadsoul]

i dont think its a new IP

don’t miss out on one of the most rewarding projects we’ve had a chance to be a part of in our company’s history.

Maybe they are referring to a new JAK game? or a Daxter 2 for the PSP? they don't specify the system they are developing it for? it's a rewarding project so probably it is a game with a lot of buzz around it?

[Chappers]

Hopefully Insomniac will be fully prevalent in texture streaming by the time they release their next project. Resistance was notably devoid of texture streaming (hence it's slight visual inferiority to Gears), but once they nail that plus a couple of other new techniques, they should be able to really showcase some of the PS3 as-yet untapped powers.

so what could this project be?

Starting work on an all-new 360 title

[Jikoo]

it might be a patch to make the game better cause at the moment its crap

[deadsoul]

well Insomniac games are:
R: FOM, Ratchet and Clank, SPYRO, Disruptor.
i think its SPYRO the dragon, a new platformer

[$_KD_]

maybe they are teaming up with naughty dog!!!!!!!!

i wonder if the trailer of Rachet and Clank that was released was a build that had texture streaming impemented. the trailer looked awesome dont get me wrong, but textures were flat for the most part.

[deadsoul]

insomniac said the ratchet and clank supports texture streaming, but im not sure if it was supported within the trailer

[designit123]

It's anew IP.
AND
Its a PSN game....

I don't know this for sure but I do remember them saying they were looking into doing a PSN game. It makes sense.

[killers72888]

what ever it is i know it will be good

[Hidden Hippo]

Should be ineresting. I haven't played a platformer for years, but the Ratchet and Clank series and the older Spyro games were fun (well, Spyro was terrible after the second one). Still, I'm hoping for a nice looking version of Resistance, especially if they get the same kind of quality GoW has.

[P209]

I'm thinking PSN game either R&C or Spyro hell it might be new IP and that would be kool also but PSN game seems likely

[2Tfps]

R&C mmorpg? I'll be Captn Quark any day!

[gcubed]

it might be a patch to make the game better cause at the moment its crap

i see great things from this one

[mrnagy88]

Games like Spyro should be PSN games anyway lol...

[uberengl]

"for new screens of Ratchet & Clank Future" this was about the psp version of R&C and this new big projekt was the showing of the R&C tools of destruction trailer....for ps3

so this is the new thing, nothing else will show up anytime soon from insomniac... well they really sould make resistance 2 as soon as posible...great game!

[Stoffinator]

They do not own Spyro anymore guys so it isn't going to be a new Spyro game. My guess its a PSN game.

[manuvlad]

I bet in a PSN downloadable game. Insomniac isn't a huge company. They are working on Resistance updates and Racthet PS3. They don't have resources for another AAA project.

[dannyphantom105]

It could just be an announcement for resistance, though they cant go full out on that game until ratchet and clank is done, so its either a new IP or i thinnk a resistance 2 announcement.
