Initial comments

"Some employees who left Insomniac Games have founded their own independent companies, such as High Impact Games" - any other examples or is this the only one?
"Price was later joined by Alex Hastings, his fellow graduate and an expert in computer coding and programming. Hastings joined the studio in June 2015" - how is this in the 1990s section if he joined a few months ago?
"Meanwhile, the team recruited another employee" - this sentence is a bit short and abrupt. I also can't find it in any of the citations in the paragraph. Is the employee a worthy mention?
"The family game market was dominated by Sony's competitor Nintendo with games like Super Mario 64, while PlayStation has no similar " - the PlayStation
"The team considered developing the sequal a challenge for them" - typo
"Spyro: Year of the Dragon was released worldwide in late 2000. After releasing three games in three years, the team needed a break from the franchise" - "needed" sounds a bit informal
"According to Price, working with Sony is an autonomous process; Sony can provide input into the development of games but Insomniac has complete control of them" - sounds like a missing quote

On hold

Nice work on this article. I'll leave this on hold once all of the above are addressed. I wrote up a Ratchet & Clank draft a few months ago and intended to bring it up to GA, but that will have to wait until I get more energy... JAGUAR 20:38, 5 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Jaguar: Thank you very much for the helpful review! I have fixed all the issues you have raised. High Impact seems to be the only notable company that was founded by former Insomniac's employees, while the rest are really independent developers that aren't really notable enough. Thank you once again. AdrianGamer (talk) 10:05, 6 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
