Insomniac Games has just released their first game after leaving the loving embrace of Sony back in 2010. It has been in the works for quite some time and even changed names in the process.

It’s also easy to make a game that’s too realistic, perhaps boring and uninteresting for the casual gamer. Luckily, however, Turn 10 Studios have had a lot of practice in the genre. After the success of Forza 3, it was hard [...]
