So true. I feel like Insomniac sold their souls to the Marvel machine by pumping out so many Marvel games at the expense of the creative original games they were known for. With Insomniac’s Marvel’s Spider-Man they got a taste of success at a level they’ve never had before and now they’re just running with it. Don’t get me wrong, those games are good. But Insomniac games were amazing. It feels like capitalism has sucked the life out of them. Maybe a controversial opinion, I don’t know. But I hope they snap out of it and make some original games again, and more Ratchet… also if Naughty Dog doesn’t revive Jak and Daxter, Insomniac should pick it up too.
Comment on What are some 3D platformer/3rd person shooter hybrids aside from the Ratchet and Jak series?

I would love their to be more games like this. I just finished Nexus and just started rift apart and absolutely loving it. So annoyed we’re not getting another R&C game to 2029. I LOVE the Spiderman games but rift apart is leagues ahead of them.

I’m hoping they’re just using it as a way to get the money to fund an absolutely breathtaking R&C game, especially since the end of the PS3 area it seems like it’s always struggled to get the budget it deserved. Especially with how short Nexus was.

Rift Apart is an excellent game. It’s the epitome of what the games I’m talking about could be, although a new Jak game in the style of Jak II and Jak 3 would be even better to me.

Oh absolutely. Jak 2 and 3 are some if my all time favourite games. I always preferred the Jak games over Ratchet but sadly Naughty Dog only do mature dramas now :(
