Insomniac Games’ Full Moon Show

+ Posted by James Stevenson // Senior Community Manager, Insomniac Games

Hey everyone,

Wanted to post a little note on here to check out the brand new video episode of the Full Moon Show, Insomniac Games’ semi-monthly podcast that gives you a developer’s perspective on the games industry. In this quick video show, we discuss what E3 was like for us, and bring you some exclusive footage of what happens when you let Ratchet loose on the showfloor of E3.

We also wanted to let you know that you can check out last month’s audio show, episode 37, Brian Fleming from Sucker Punch on the show to discuss their awesome new game, inFAMOUS (which you should totally go buy like, RIGHT NOW if you haven’t already). You can subscribe to the show via our RSS feed on our website, as well as through iTunes, though if you previously subscribed to season one or two, please click that link and subscribe to the new feed of the show to ensure you receive Season 3 episodes.

That’s all for now – as always you can e-mail us at podcast@insomniacgames.com with your comments, or Tweet them at us at www.twitter.com/insomniacgames (we’re giving away some Quest for Booty codes on our Twitter, so stop by).

Hope you all enjoyed our E3 content, and we’re looking forward to seeing everyone at Comic-Con this year! I’ll be in the comments section to answer your questions!

FUUUUUTURE!

YES FINALLY!

Insomniac Rules!!!

+ TubaDude49 on June 16th, 2009 at 12:40 pm said:

Since Jak was in Deadlocked, is there any chance there may be any guest skins in ACiT?
BTW the E3 demo looked amazing, I bet you guys felt relieved to get the immeninent threat off your shoulders.

+ James Stevenson on June 16th, 2009 at 3:41 pm said:

Never know – though it\’s a bit harder to do guest skins if no PS3 version of that character exists.

+ NeoUltima on June 16th, 2009 at 12:41 pm said:

I must know the winner of the weapon contest.

+ James Stevenson on June 16th, 2009 at 3:42 pm said:

Then you must come to Comic-Con!

i used to listen to full moon show all the time, its WEIRD TO SEE YOUR FACES

WEIRD.

FACES.

TO SEE.

Whats up with the PSN today and last night? So many problems. Hope were getting a new firmware update..NOW!

+ Darkos87 on June 16th, 2009 at 12:43 pm said:

Aww I was hoping for a full blown full moon show! :( I was a bit disappointed… but still Ratchet on E3 floor was awesome, seems like he’s popular with the ladies :)

Question: What were the lessons learnt from Quest for Booty? Is DLC content like this something you are still actively considering?

Mystery guest: media molecule on littlebigplanet PSP :)

Can you give us more details on the Ratchet & Clank T-shirts Twitter giveaway?

+ James Stevenson on June 16th, 2009 at 3:42 pm said:

Just keep following us on Twitter… we\’ll post chances to win t-shirts in the future, and most likely between the hours of 10pm-6pm Pacific Standard Time Mon-Fri.

Can I get a life-sized Ratchet costume?
SHARE THE LOVE Insomniac

Nice montauge.

@6
Wait till Comic-Con

+ QuizPyro on June 16th, 2009 at 12:56 pm said:

WERES TEH PWR TEAM of Ratchet & Clank I’ve seen many trailers just with Ratchet no Clank,ohh if you wanna have guest skins how about Cole or Jak

+ DonnyG on June 16th, 2009 at 12:57 pm said:

Nice to have the show back!

+ penetration1 on June 16th, 2009 at 12:58 pm said:

Great podcasts! Too short though.I agree with Darkos87 about having the media molecule guys on the FMS, even though they’re not actually making LBP PSP. Media Molecule has a podcast too, maybe it could be a Media Molecule-Insomniac smash-up podcast! I would like a sackboy costume skin for either Ratchet or Clank.

P.S. The video podcast can not be transfered to my last-gen Ipod nano, maybe you guys could take a look at it for the next video podcast.

i want a ratchet suit so i can get the ladies

+ Capt-Fury- on June 16th, 2009 at 1:10 pm said:

Ratchet is a bandwagoner :p

+ JKC31 on June 16th, 2009 at 1:13 pm said:

I didn’t see much of anything of this game roaming the interwebs during e3. Just some strange video on here like a week ago with the guy in the “hey look sweater; I can afford coat hangers”.

+ Xenoxerxes on June 16th, 2009 at 1:24 pm said:

Cool show, it was a short and skimpy on content though.

+ shystie1 on June 16th, 2009 at 1:28 pm said:

Wow I was in the top 20 to comment on Youtube and now I’m the top 20 comment on the PS Blog. It’s nice being a Fan of Insomniac Games on Facebook and following them on Twitter. You really get an a heads up on what’s going on. Don’t worry PS Blog I follow you too and Jeff.

Great video again. I can’t wait for the next episode.

+ TakiFuGu on June 16th, 2009 at 1:41 pm said:

Much respect to you guys at Insomniac unlike the Japanese game developers. You guys and Sucker Punch have my respect for all times. Keep on pushing those PS3 AAAs and I’ll keep on buying.

Thanks.

+ TakiFuGu on June 16th, 2009 at 1:44 pm said:

OMG, Rachet is a pure PIMP! Woot, Lakers kick some major Magic butt!

+ TakiFuGu on June 16th, 2009 at 1:48 pm said:

Hey guys, can you please patch Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction with Trophy support?

+ James Stevenson on June 16th, 2009 at 3:43 pm said:

All of our efforts right now are focused on launching A Crack in Time :-)

+ Unknown_Hero on June 16th, 2009 at 2:01 pm said:

Man ratchet is amazing!

+ wanethemane93 on June 16th, 2009 at 2:22 pm said:

Wow its been a while but i know you guys are working on the game and are busy. hopefully on resistance 3 also. but great show and keep up the good work.

+ Arcturian on June 16th, 2009 at 2:38 pm said:

One little hopeful-suggestion for the new game: Could you make an unlockable skin just the default, starting skin? Like, just Ratchet as he is when the game starts with no armor. Once you’ve gotten the full armor and are going through multiple playthroughs trying to get 100% weapons exp, it drastically depersonalizes the experience when his face is completely covered. Oh, and basically the less clothing Ratchet’s wearing the cooler it looks (shut up :O).

+ James Stevenson on June 16th, 2009 at 3:44 pm said:

I think we\’ve got that covered this time around. That complaint has definitely not gone un-heard.

+ Zonified on June 16th, 2009 at 2:51 pm said:

I hope I can score one of those shirts they were talking about. I keep checking up on Insomniac’s Twitter and Facebook accounts just in case. Hope some info on it comes soon. :)

+ katsuo7171 on June 16th, 2009 at 3:18 pm said:

Lol I need to start watching these. Good Show also, for future invites I would like to see Justin Richmond from Naughty Dog on your show.

+ Buddyleej on June 16th, 2009 at 3:26 pm said:

Insomniac is one of the reasons I support Playstation. Thanks a ton guys!

+ djpenny1 on June 16th, 2009 at 3:28 pm said:

kool show guys

+ Silent_Gig on June 16th, 2009 at 3:29 pm said:

And not a whisper about Resistance =_=

Come on insomniac give us SOMETHING

+ Gringo234 on June 16th, 2009 at 3:30 pm said:

No more resistance because it’s dead and gone.

ON to the next game that isn’t even worth going all out for.

+ JaKhris on June 16th, 2009 at 3:34 pm said:

Hey,

The Brian Fleming and Twitter links aren’t quite correct…a HTML tag must’ve been left unclosed, I guess. ;)

Other than that, this video FMS was awesome. That live Ratchet was great, I laugh the whole time he was on the show ! ^^

Can’t wait to here more about ACIT. Keep up the excellent work, Insomniacs! ;)

Chris

+ NeoUltima on June 16th, 2009 at 3:37 pm said:

The code is not working :(

+ thegriefer on June 16th, 2009 at 3:38 pm said:

If they advertise this game right it could sell very well. Insomniac and naughty dog forever

+ D-Squad3 on June 16th, 2009 at 3:38 pm said:

Great to see a podcast from Insomniac but I hate the Lakers. Lol that was a nice joke about mini me being CLANK! XD

+ D-Squad3 on June 16th, 2009 at 3:48 pm said:

btw where’s Ted?

+ James Stevenson on June 16th, 2009 at 5:03 pm said:

He\’s there with Ratchet!

+ spunnups on June 16th, 2009 at 4:41 pm said:

Insomniac is great. I’ve played just about everything they’ve put out.

+ SyphonFilter- on June 16th, 2009 at 5:04 pm said:

Dam i wish comic con was in n.y.

+ NeodeosX on June 16th, 2009 at 5:31 pm said:

Hi James !

Great podcast :)

Can you confirm the music played during the funny Ratchet footage is a track from ACIT O.S.T ? Main theme ?

Oh, and… any chance for a collector edition this time ? :(

+ magpie4life on June 16th, 2009 at 5:37 pm said:

Yes, please James, I also need a collector’s edition for the game. You can include a plushy of ratchet, don’t do a little toy like the one included with SECRET AGENT CLANK; Clank’s arm fell off after 1 month.

+ CloudStorm87 on June 16th, 2009 at 5:43 pm said:

Great show guys! I think you should keep doing video podcasts from now on if it’s not too much trouble. Not sure if it’s already available but if not, could you please make sure the show is directly downloadable from the PSP. Thanks!

That said, Ratchet totally rocked E3! He’s obviously a hit with the ladies and I think it might be the eye brows. Damn I’m so jealous XD

Keep up good work. I can’t wait to play the game!

+ BlooodyCow on June 16th, 2009 at 6:30 pm said:

Ratchet should become the official Lakers mascot.

+ Wild_Man_X on June 16th, 2009 at 6:40 pm said:

I’ll see you guys at comic-con!

+ Jeigh on June 16th, 2009 at 7:01 pm said:

I realize I’ve said this before, but: I’m very happy you guys decided to keep the audio podcast around. (No offense intended) Not that the video podcast doesn’t have its benefits, but I really do enjoy listening to you guys in the background while playing whatever. Just wanted to thank you again for that. Here’s to yet another successful title from Insomniac Games. :)

PS Wasn’t that response to the trophy backlog the one given during R2? Perhaps it would be more honest to just say that it isn’t going to happen. (Though I do see how there would be issues with that from a PR perspective.)

+ NewYork214 on June 16th, 2009 at 8:48 pm said:

please no crazy hard trophies. i still didnt finish R2 trophies because of the online ones. got the story trophies 100% though. NO MORE ONLINE TROPHIES

+ nYcFrEeWiLL82 on June 16th, 2009 at 9:09 pm said:

KOOL VIDEO I MUST SAY..RACHET IS HILLARIOUS..REMINDS ME OF ..CRASH..SO SAD HE NOT AN XCLUSIVE CHARACTER ANYMORE..BUT WATEVER..I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT I DONT THINK YOU GUYS ARE GIVING CLANK HIS SHINE..HE DESERVE IT..BESIDES HIS NAME IS ON THE COVER OF ALL THE GAMES TOO!..:/
