@selfreflect: insomniac isn't owned by Sony and can do whatever they want. Sony probably wanted rights to the IP which insomniac clearly wants to own it unlike their other games. Probably only Microsoft would allow them to own the rights to the game. Don't be butt hurt that this game isn't on the ps4. They don't owe anyone anything and sunset overdrive looks awesome. Thankfully I own both a ps4 and Xbox one so I won't miss out on this one.

You people are making too big deal out of it. If Sony offered them a better deal, they'd make Sunset Overdrive Sony exclusive.

The real story is Insomniac hasn't made a good game in years and M$ are the only ones dumb enough to fund another big budget title from them.

Implying that devs suddenly become incapable of releasing a good game after a few meh (not bad) ones

Something tells me Insomniac may be using Microsoft cloud to have tons of AI on screen. If this is the case, its another reason why they went MS.

Does anyone know who owns the right to FUSE?

LMAO

Yeah, sounds like MS were so desperate to stick one in Sony's eye for last E3 they bent over backwards for Insomniac. Pity wider events totally overshadowed that.

Please allow my self and other Xbox gamers to welcome Insomniac and Sunset Overdrive to THE ONE. A perfect home.

Couldn't agree more, you guys need a game from a semi-decent developer badly.

Cows will likely see this as a fairly big negative, since it's exclusive to their most hated system.

What they don't realize, since they tend to be rather short-sighted, is if it's a big success, Microsoft won't be able to maintain exclusivity of the IP, since Insomniac owns it. Well, unless they pay Insomniac an insane amount of money to keep it exclusive.

I'll watch a Let's Play on Youtube when I'm taking a break from Destiny, The Order and Drive Club.

I'll probably get too reminded of Infamous and fire that up instead, without needing to worry if the online community is dead by now.

So Insomniac wanted to own the IP and Microsoft was looking for exclusives/games for the Xbox One and was willing to allow Insomniac to own the IP if they published the game exclusively for the Xbox One. Makes sense.

This means if the game is a hit they could go multiplatform with the series, just not the first game. Much like Titanfall.

Yup

The game looks pretty interesting but considering Insomniac owns the IP, it won' t be much longer until the game/franchise goes multiplatform - especially if it does well on the Xbox One.

Releasing a game purely on the poor selling Xbone compared to PS4 is only going to hurt developers and future projects.

Game looks bad art style wise and gameplay (from what was shown at least) looked like a generic zombies spam fest. I'd eat this cow, hungry as fk.

Damn you guys really don't have any fun exclusives if you mention those games... A multiplatform game, a QTE game, a race game in 30fps that has 3 cars and 1 racetrack, to end with a game that has been out for already 6 months by the time sunset overdrive is out. Yikes :s

lmao massive damage control. My 3/4 fantastic games to your one Dead Rising clone that MS bent over backwards to secure.

I wonder if it'll have as much manufactured hype as Titanflop did.

Its a strategy that could be used to Block a particular console out of the market, Multiplats are the Bread and butter of the Games industry, neither MS, Nintendo or SONY put out enough exclusives that gamers would be happy with Exclusives alone, if you publish a title but allow the Developers to keep the IP you could effectively release the game on every platform except one of them and you would effectively be cutting them out of the market.

Do that with multiple developers.

Insomniac isn't putting any console out of business....

i was referring to Microsoft, not insomniac.

'If a if you PUBLISH a title but allow the DEVELOPERS to keep the IP....'

Clearly i was referring to whoever publishes the game , not who develops the title.

@Indicud: Because the xbone is seriously under powered

Also,

The over hyping of SunSet is truly ridicilous.

SunSet looks generic and uninspired. Gameplay really looked awful to me. Xboners must be desperate for games since xbone has none

Trust me, im telling you right now, I could care less if SunSet is xbone exclusive or not

BUT if there is something to get upset over,

Its the FACT that development on the xbone, takes away from possible development of a good Ratchet and Clank game on PS4

And thats absurd.

The xbone is a weaker console with little user base(PS4 is crushing the xbone in sales)

Insomniac needs to focus on making PS4 gamers happy with a PS4 Ratchet and Clank or at least on making a new IP for PS4 thats actually interesting unlike SunSet

Instead they are waisting time and money on a generic looking IP for an xbone console that has NO user base out side the US

That is what could be upsetting

The PS4 is even significantly out selling then xbone in the USA too. Insomniac messed up bad.

Either way **** Insomniac for selling out. Never supporting Insomniac again

SunSet looks awful either way, but at least a PS4 Ratchet and Clank wouldve been good

So much wrong in this post it isn't even funny, poor little SONY fanboy.

The flop that sold more than Inflopamous. And MS didn't need to do anything special, Insomniac hated Sony, and didn't want to work with them anymore, they disliked Sony more than Bungie Microsoft.

How do you know? We haven't had any real Titanflop numbers other than physical only US only, which is amusing considering EA publically disparaged the same source previously. It obviously flopped in every other metric everywhere else.

Oh? That must be why they released a new Ratchet and Clank game six months ago. Try all you want, lemming, no developer-publisher falling out will ever be as catastrophic as MS and Bungie.

That's why it is always on top in the UK and Infamous isn't? Good one ;)

That's because it was contracted, their best developers were clearly on Sunset Overdrive, that's why R&C got a score almost as equal to shit game KZ. Haha, try to say what you want cow, but you know nothing, it's like talking to John Snow

Yes, that's the miracle of bundling. All those prevalent Tituhfuhh bundles lying around undergoing massive retailer price cuts. Funny how no one talks about it though, even with DLC imminent. Meanwhile Infamous, a single-console exclusive with a user base of around 500,000, is still in the top ten on its own merits.

Clearly. That's why it looks like they copy-pasted Dead Rising, slapped on some Ratchet graphics and grabbed some memes from Reddit. The lemming doesn't have a competent response so he throws out insults. Typical. MS tried to stick one in Sony's eye last E3, such a pity wider events overtook them. Hahahahahaha!

Typical xbot fanboys lol. Ignore the points, and make nothing but personal attacks. Ad homines.

So easy to spot and expose.

For anyone to even still defend Microsoft after all the BS they have commited, they are simply a sheep who doesnt deserve oxygen

No game will make me buy an xbone

And SunSet doesnt look that interesting to begin with, as it is..

This is nothing more then typical PR bull.

Insomniac is a declining developer who sold out for the money. Nothing more.

Xbots are like the 500lb obese man who goes around telling everyone else they are the ones who are fat

Xbots are straight up delusional

lmao, you should be embarrassed your whole post screams I wish insomniac made this for SONY!!

I could give a flying rats ass about SunSet. Its just one game xbot.

Even then, everything SunSet is going for, Imfamous already did it all much better and with real next graphics. So i will stick with Infamous. I will also take The Order over SunSet any day

Truth is Insomniac use to make great PS3 games under Sony's help and support. Then they made Fuse without Sony, and the game was awful

Its time to face reality, Insomiac is a declining developer who has LOST it and at this point they are simply selling out for the money

Dont expect much from SunSet. At best it will be a fun little title for an hour or two...and likely it will come to PS4 anyway

You really need a hobby, Brofists. Might I suggest gaming?

Haha sure, that's why the number of consoles from Microsoft had such an increase? It didn't so those Titanfall numbers come from the total userbase and has nothing to do with the bundles, keep grasping for straws, I know you cows like to eat them.

Sony is crying out loud at the moment because they don't have Sunset Overdrive. I know people who had a PS3, and love Ratchet & Clank games, who want to get an Xbox One just for this game.

What increase? In the US on a weekly basis, they sold less Xbones in March than they did in February. In the UK Infamous boosted PS4 sales more than Titanflop did Xbone. Oh, you mean post-release? Yes, that's desperation free bundling and price cutting to get rid of consoles. Well done.

You still banging on about SO? I already played those games, they were called Dead Rising 2 and Infamous Second Son. Nice for you to tell me about the voices in your head, though.

MS managed to keep Gears of War out of Sony's systems quite well. In January they finally bought the IP.
