I read pretty much every comment on this site and chime in myself when I have the time. This week’s greatest comment came from one of our regular readers ‘Norbit’. The comment was concerning the following article and I felt it was one of the best comeback comments I have seen in a while:
Insomniac’s Recruitment Music Video Drops Hints About Resistance 2?
somewhat says: This absolutely MUST be a weekly feature on the site.
DancingCorpse says: ^ ^ ^ Agreed
And he got owned.
I know the guy was making his personal opinio on it (just like people don’t like games by say, Blizzard) but that doesn’t change the fact that Norbit’s reply WAS hilarious. Kudos to you, good sir.
Ryan says: lol, that’s ONE less person visiting this website ever again 
Norbit says: Thank you, thank you 
Who would have thought that I would be getting an award on Oscar night? 
ManOfTeal says: oh good grief…. 
HATER says: I SPENT A MILLION DOLLARS ON THAT COMMENT!

OK, lets take a look at their back catalogue;
Resistance Fall Of Man (PS3)
IGN rating – 9.1
Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction (PS3)
IGN rating – 9.4
Ratchet: Deadlocked (PS2)
IGN rating – 8.8
Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal (PS2)
IGN rating – 9.6
Ratchet and Clank: Locked and Loaded (PS2)
IGN rating – 9.4
Ratchet & Clank (PS2)
IGN rating – 9.2
Disruptor (PS1)
IGN rating – 8.0
Spyro the Dragon (PS1)
IGN rating – 9.0
Spyro 2: Ripto’s Rage (PS1)
IGN rating – 8.8
Spyro: Year of the Dragon (PS1)
IGN rating – 9.1
That means the average rating for an Insomniac Games title is 9.04.
‘Mediocre’? I think ‘consistently excellent’ is a more subtitle description.
