In this thread, we'll discus anything made by Insomniac Games.

These include:

Any of the Ratchet and Clank games

Resistance: Fall of Man

Any of the Spyro games

Disruptor (for PS1)

I haven't played Resistance yet, but I plan to (when I get a PS3), so I'm wondering what you guys think about it (whether you've played it or not).

Insomniacs has made some of the most addictive games I have ever played.
Also, they seem like a great place to work.

I've always wanted (sort of subconsciously) to work there.

If I go into that area.

I'm a really big fan of Spyro (I have the original trilogy)...
but I think that's the only game I played from them
I'm sure all of them are awesome... Ratchet & Clank is the one I would like to get

well I never heard about Disruptor... but sounds interesting

"The company has been named as one of the top 10 Best Small Companies to work for in America for 3 years in a row for their relaxed environment, flexible hours, yoga, Fragfest Fridays, movie nights, and indoor 7/11. Their Yoga sessions have earned them the "Most Flexible Game Company" Award from IGN.com. The company also took its entire workforce on a free cruise."

How could you NOT love these guys?

Anyway, I was never really into Spyro, it was Ratchet & Clank that has had me singing the companies praises for years. The series remains one of my favorites.

I also love how Insomniac has such good relation with with other developers such as Naughty Dog & Sucker Punch. I've pretty much looked at all three as one great amazing company.

Same for me. I was actually playing it earlier today, 2 years after I finished it!

I loved Spyro 3 then my dickhead of a brother lent it to his unclean friend and it was never seen again. I own most of the Ratchet games, I love Insomniac. Their partnership with Naughty Dog always made me lol

And if we run outta bullets? Heh, baby, they're gonna wish we hadn't....

That secret Insomniac gallery in Ratchet and Clank simply blew my mind.

Drop me a PM to talk about junk, serious or silly.
