Confirmed: Insomniac Games is making a videogame photo

Insomniac Games is creating a new game; confirmed.

On a podcast -- hopefully a recent one -- Insomniac community manager Bryan Intihar said that an unannounced game in the studio now has a playable build. “We’re not gonna tell you what they’re working on,” he said, referring to Insomniac, “but we can say we saw it and it’s really awesome.” Community relations manager James Stevenson followed-up Intihar saying, “Really good first playable. A lot of fun, a lot of potential and a long way off still.”

Insomniac is the studio behind Resistance: Fall of Man, Resistance 2, and the Ratchet & Clank series. With a new Ratchet title known to be in the works, it’s hard to shake off the feeling that the two men referred to a continuation of the PS3-exclusive shooter series, Resistance. Of course, this could be something totally new and absolutely mind-blowing. Insomniac is known for bursting brains with cool stuff.

We’ll probably forget these things were said whenever a new title is announced, but we’ll do our best to keep this little story in mind and ask if that was what these two community guys were talking about. Until that point in time -- possibly never -- give us some speculation. What game is this?

They also did the first 3 Spyro games on the Playstation, I love those games =D. When I had visited Japan 2 months ago I met someone on the part of my trip that was a tour and he was a concept art designer currently working for Insomniac. I had fun talking to him.

I would be very interested if they were working on some kind of new IP since I do enjoy the feel of their games. Here is to hoping.

@Dreamsower:
Too bad they didn't have the rights to the IP, and other developers butchered it after Insomniac left it.

I hope they make a new IP soon

Ummmm... I believe the correct title to Resistance 3 would be Resist With a Vengance

Yeah, that series went in a horrible direction. That sense of humor and feel of the early Spyro games and Ratchet and Clank I would love to see them apply to something new(not that there is anything wrong with R&C currently, they're great).

I had a hard time trying to beat the latest Rachet & Clank, but that's only because It was a platformer for more than just kids. I have to give Rachet & Clank that, it's a platformer for grown ups.



And I know this sounds immature and it's unrelated, but I want a sequel to Conkers Bad Fur Day.

Insomniac's Community Manager thinks his company's new game is awesome, where's captain obvious when you need him?

New IP would be great though, i'd rather they'd step away from Resistance and make a new mascot platformer/puzzler/adventure game.

They need to do something new. As awesome as Ratchet and Clank is, shit has gotten stale. Resistance is fine though.

If they continue on with Resistance, I'm kind of hoping they'll go back to more of the original game and continue the story with Rachel Parker as the main character... though a new IP would likely be better.

Good Resistance 3 is fine with me. I also agree with Elsa, they need to really work on the narrative of the third game and make it similar style to that of Fall Of Man. But what Im excited for is the advancements there gonna make in the co-op missions. Also a graphical boost would be good too. Ill be gettin this in 2010 along with about 50 million other games :(
