Post-Red Dead Redemption, Houser will begin co-writing the script for GTA IV’s follow-up title, which is anticipated to be approximately 1,000 pages in [...]

‘If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’. I for one am a great believer in this particular cliché. Sure, whatever ‘it’ might be could over time undergo the odd tweak or two, but ‘it’ remains largely unchanged. Now, consider Insomniac’s solid, compelling and rewarding Ratchet and Clank franchise in place of ‘it’. The first ever [...]

For me, choosing a next generation racer to add to my growing collection of PS3 titles was a tricky affair. I asked myself: what attributes make a great racing game?

Not too long ago, Gamesreactor TV’s Bengt Lemne spoke with Ryan Schneider, Marketing and Community Director at Insomniac Games, to learn what Insomniac is all about.
