Insomniac excited about Xbox Live

"That's a very cool opportunity for us."

Insomniac Games' Ted Price has told Eurogamer he is excited about working with Xbox Live for the very first time - it's a platform he's admired from afar.

"Xbox Live is impressive in its breadth and its popularity with users," he told us in an interview published today. "That's a very cool opportunity for us to start taking advantage of."

He did concede, however, that Microsoft's console can be "a little bit louder than PS3".

Insomniac will develop "a brand new universe" for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 that will be published by EA. Price revealed that work on the new game began "a while ago".

He went on to say that Insomniac will definitely not be unveiling the game at E3.

Insomniac has an illustrious history as a PlayStation developer, pumping out games in the Ratchet & Clank, Resistance and Spyro franchises. And that long history with Sony won't be thrown away. "We're still as committed as ever to the franchises we're working on with Sony," said Price.
