Insomniac Games Revealing Its Multiplatform Game Next Week

It'll be a kart racer prominently featuring bobble heads.

Call of Duty

I wouldn't mind a kinda light-hearted shooter comedy, like a Zombieland tone or something, and, after Ratchet and Clank, I think Insomniac could do that pretty dang well.

I've gotten around to playing Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time recently, and without exaggeration, it is one of my favorite games of all time. It just looks so damned beautiful, runs buttery smooth, control like a dream, and has an actually interesting and funny story. Insomniac is an awesome studio.

Based on that picture it looks like a first or third person shooter with a The Mist/Monsters vibe.

hopefully it will be better than the Resistance games.

Amen!

 It will be on kinect, move and involve space probably.

I hated Resistance but I love every single entry in the Ratchet and Clank series. Hopefully this isn't EA's new shooter...

Oh god, this!

Does multiplatform also include the pc? I hope it includes the pc.

Who gave Alan Wake a machine gun?

Was about to post this EXACT comment. Also, Alan Wake doesn't stand a goddamned chance against Galactus.

Either that or it's going to be really disappointing to find out the secret to defeating the World Eater is to shine a flashlight in his face for a while and then shoot him. Bet Mr. Fantastic never thought of that.

Pachter called it.

I really doubt that they would look into getting back into FPS considering it is a crowded market just in EA's own portfolio. 
 
I would bet that they would go back to action platforming but with some sort of twist. I wouldn't be totally surprised if they were at the Microsoft conference considering there is speculation that Bungie will be at Sony's. 
 
They may try to perfect "parkor" style of gameplay but with their twist, whatever that is. I sort of think they got shafted by Sony just because Killzone got much more marketing than Resistance but it wasn't that much to begin with.

It's going to be a goddamn action-platformer, but also a role-playing game. I'm going to call it right here.

idk, a non shooter like ratchet just sounds like a bad business idea. Remember viva pinata?

It's a Sci-Fi shooter! (Doesn't EA have enough of that? They already have ME and Dead Space...)

Patrick +1 for keeping us informed! 
 
My random wild guess is a racing game.

@gbrading: That's just a Resistance 3 screenshot. No details of their new game have come out yet.

Platform action game like ratchet and Clank.

I'm okay with it being a shooter as long as it's more like Ratchet and Clank than Resistance.

@nick_verissimo: Looks like Galactus to me.

Cannot unsee.

Whatever it is, keep insomniac away from first person perspectives.
 
Something about an FPS that makes insomniac throw out all their creativity.

@nick_verissimo: Looks like Galactus to me.

@nick_verissimo: Looks like Galactus to me.

@gbrading: That's Resistance 3.

please do be another shooter

Is that some sort of robot spider in the background? My brain interprets images shrouded in fog oddly.

Just 360? No PC love? I would love to see them bundle all the Ratchet and Clank games and put them out for everyone.That's one series I always wanted to get into, but sadly I didn't when they were new and I don't like to start in on series half way through and it's just too much of a pain trying to find the old games. So I doubt I will get to play the games unless they do a bundle/remake.

mass hysteria

It's an FPS or third person shooter.

I dunno... That screenshot makes it look like it could possibly be a shooter.

I'm about to hop onto a plane to Los Angeles, but wanted to give you guys a quick heads up!

When Insomniac Games announced its decision to become a multiplatform developer last year, the studio didn't reveal a new game alongside the news. We'll finally know what game will mark Insomniac Games' move onto Xbox 360 at the Electronic Arts press conference on Monday, according to the company's Twitter account.

Speculate away! (Please don't be another shooter.)
