It's a zombie/end of the world game, as we all know, but Insomniac being Insomniac, well... they decided to make it fun.

Marcus Smith and Drew Murray
 
"What would you do if society were gone? What would happen if social laws were gone? Would it be Lord of the Flies or Burning Man?" --Murray

"We wanted to have the Apocalypse, but turn it on its head and have it fun in the end times." Smith explained, "The way that we wanted to present that was have a very colorful world, have a place that you want to experience, and want to walk around and look around every corner. So the art style mimics the music and everything else in it is high energy, high excitement, fast action..."

"...and NOT DARK!" chimed in Murray. "That was our first rule after working on Resistance was 'No Rubble' and the second rule was 'No Gray.'"
Also mentioned was that getting around the world will feel more akin to the Tony Hawk games, rather than inFAMOUS or Assassin's Creed.

As I've said before, at the moment, this is the only game that truly makes me want an Xbox One. Insomniac will be on stage with Sunset Overdrive at the Xbox Media Briefing at E3 this year.

Oh fuck you Insomniac, why are you releasing this on only ONE console? At the very least, your bros on the PS3, maaaaan. D:<

Yea, fuck the One and fuck Insomniac...

"We pitched it a few different places, and it was really important to [Insomniac CEO] Ted [Price] that we own the IP, so some of the conversations broke down over that," Smith admitted. "With Microsoft, they just came in very energetic and excited to work with Insomniac, period. And we'd heard some really good things about them and some resources that they would be allowing us to have."

Not sure I can understand what you just said...

Okay seriously, I'm glad Microsoft let them keep the IP because it looks fun as hell. I suppose the day Bayonetta 2 goes multiplatform will be the day we expect to see this do the same. :P

You're trying to hard my friend lol

Okay seriously, there's a reason why these companies (Insomniac, Respawn, and even Crytek) all praise MS. Cooperation is essential.

True, but then you look at companies like Bungie and BioWare who did the opposite.

Not too happy with how Bungie was treated by the time of Halo Reach (sooner even) but not every company can see eye to eye is the main point. I'd rather see more games for more consoles by everybody but it's all about how negotiations go by the end of the day. It's all about whose the most flexible/cooperative at the time of negotiations.

It's worth repeating a hundred times over, for being the best kick to the crotch ever.

Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'

If having Technical Issues with the forum please post details in the Board Improvements thread and I'll look into them ASAP
