From a medical technician to President and CEO of Insomniac Games

The titles created at Insomniac Games are some of the best reasons to own PlayStation systems, from Spyro the Dragon on PlayStation to Ratchet & Clank on PlayStation 2 to Resistance on PlayStation 3. Its latest game, Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction is scheduled to ship on October 30; the demo is available on PSN today. Ted Price, the president and CEO of the studio, talked with us about how it all began.

This is a great interview and no matter who these guys are developing for and what it is, it's hard to root against a spirit and story like this!

im a be working for insomniac in the future, hellyeah, they give awesome benefits

UltramanJ6059d ago

I've always loved Insomniac, and never realized Disruptor was their first game. Funny because I bought it back when it came out along with the first Spyro and Ratchet games. These guys are talented and it's nice to see that Sony stood behind them all the way. Perhaps that's why they're so loyal to the Playstation brand.

A Matter Of Trust: What The Game Industry Should Do To Win Gamers Back

Skewed and Reviewed have written an Opinion Piece covering issues in the gaming industry, how current issues were issues years ago, and what can be done to help restore consumer trust.

Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.

How do you know if you agree with it or not unless you play it? Which without conventions forces gamers to rely on trailers. Perhaps Demos should be made more frequently. But companies need to do better as well.

Wait until release. Watch Gameplay. Exercise patience.

Garethvk4d ago

But is that not what they have now? Tons of gameplay or are you talking about watching actual gamers play it versus the trailers and streams? The big issue is that some companies pay streamers and influencers and they create content but for me; that is hardly a fair, unbiased, and factual look at a game.

Get rid of the suits in the industry and job done!!

They usually are attached to the money sadly. It would be nice to have gamers in charge but you have so much money invested that business people are needed. Hence the issue; you need people who know business but are also gamers who know have an eye to the community. It sounds simple in theory that if you give gamers quality games that they want to play; money will be made. But that is not always so.
