Ex Bungie designer Jaime Griesemer has joined Infamous studio Sucker Punch. “I found a great team and a fantastic opportunity just across the street at Sucker Punch Productions,” Griesemer said. “It’s a smaller team, very collaborative, they’ve got enormous talent and they are very hungry – they want to take it to the next level and are willing to put in the effort it will take to get there.” Griesemer added that Sucker Punch fell more in line with the size of operation he wanted to work for: “When Bungie and I parted ways, I didn’t really have a plan.

Sucker Punch delves into the tech that helped them bring Atsu’s engrossing journey to live.

That's more than fine. If you keep making one amazing quality game after another, with the low budget you've been utilising for games, then you'll continue to be extremly successful going forward. Don't take on a bigger load than you can handle comfortably.
Also, maybe it's time for a Sly Cooper game. No to Infamous, we've already got superhero games coming form Insomniac. Sorry Infamous fans but I want an open world Sly Cooper game.
Wise decision by a very stupid PlayStation management this gen.
Now let Bend go 1st party too and explore some more Oregon
Im baffled how theyve made a game of this quality on this budget when worse games spend 5x that

Naaaaa, I like sly, but infamous is what they should do if they want to go back
Have been watching vids of the game and my wife who doesn't play games, asked me why the baddies as she called them, don't seem to be fighting back much, like they're stood still. The AI is dire and this is yet another showcase game from Sony. Run about and explore with flash graphics. There's just no variety with Sony's games.
The Team Asobi and Sucker Punch Production devs and founders reflect on their shared creative bonds.
Nice!
this could be good. i wonder if bungie are tempted to make a ps3 exclusive..
Good luck dude.
Great.. But is infamous 3 happening or not?

Unless these guys are going in to the fps genre and are interested in multiple vehicles and sandbox game play, I'm not sure where this gentleman will fit in.
Maybe he is giving away all of Bungies future plans and Sucker Punch now want to make that type of game as well...sneaky. Ex employees and disgruntled EX employees seems to fit into both those categories, are the most dangerous. Wonder what he said in the interview that got him hired. ;)
