ActionTrip's Resistance 2 First Look

Resistance 2 is, like its predecessor, a PS3-exclusive projected for a Fall release. SCEA is putting the game in the same boat with top franchises and upcoming releases such as Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. They also expect the game "to go toe-to-toe against" CliffyB's recently announced Xbox 360 action game, Gears of War 2.

"First look", Perhaps I'm mistaken but to have the first look surely you have to actually get to see the game?

No new information at all, just a repeat of everything we already know.

criticalzero6617d ago

Exactly.....This article is a piece of dump....." Give us new Info or shut the fuk up!!!!!!!"

Palodios6617d ago

Its cheap journalism.Nothing new, no new pictures or videos... With actual video footage coming tomorrow, this is a waste of time.

SPARTAAN6617d ago

does gametrailes.com follow PST or GMT

mesh16617d ago

compare those screens to gears of 2ar 2 you will see why gears of war 2 will make this game looks very dated i can 100% guarantee ppl keep forgetting epic is 1 of the richest game devs out there remember ut1and 3 and other that were actually amazing games unlike ut3 they basically skimped on ut3 to put massive efforts into gears of war not to forgot the extra money they are getting from their publisher which is Microsoft and the help of Microsoft game studios these are the things that made gears of war great just check the screen shots and if u guys are saying its concept art why does the previewer keep referring to the as screens the art work is clear to see the in game unfinished versions also easy to see and makes resistance 2 look crap.

open zone >>>>>>

mattnz6617d ago (Edited 6617d ago )

The Resistance shots are from a very early build, we might get a better idea of what resistance will look like tomorrow when the teaser trailer hits, but there's still many months of work left in it. I think Gears is great, but I'm more excited about R2.

PS. Sorry Spartaan I hit 'disagree' on yours by accident, given you bubbles to make up for it.

crunchie1016617d ago (Edited 6617d ago )

I know Sony isn't helping, but I wish people would stop comparing this to Gears. I guess they've got a sort of similar art style, but that's kind of it. OK, so, so far the screens haven't been exactly mindblowing, but hey, it isn't finished.

And, yeah the Gears 2 screens look pretty sweet, but again, who cares? If you want a game that looks better than Gears 2 on the PS3, look no further than Killzone 2.

Actually, you know what, Spartaan, you're right, this imbecile belongs in the open zone and it's a waste of my keyboard to try and reason with him/her/it.

On a side note, I'm rather looking forward to Resistance 2.

edit: hmm i wonder who disagreed with me and why

SIX6617d ago

Well that is your opinion, but I find that the jump from RFOM1 to RFOM2 is much greater than the jump from Gears 1 to 2. On the surface it's clear that Gears has a more dynamic style, but under the belly RFOM has always been more tecnically superior. You wouldn't know what I'm talking about unless you've owned and played both.

jkhan6617d ago (Edited 6617d ago )

Well we should all wait and see which game looks better and play better. In terms of feature so far, Resistance 2 is richer. 60 player multiplayer, 8 player coop, 2 campaigns. Plus this guy is comparing Gears of War 2 pictures from the mag. scan to Resistance 2. Oh Come on you are kidding me right?
Apart from that I will be buying both games. i loved the original gears and I loved resistance 1. So it will interesting to see which game I play more.

SPARTAAN6617d ago

no problem i never bothered about the disagrees

Palodios6617d ago

I know I might be a minority, but I liked the resistance single player MUCH better than GoW. There is no denying that chainsaw guns were badass, butI just happened to like R:fom more. considering Resistance 1 was a launch title, Insomniac's first fps like this (rather than having a pedigree of shooter games) and they have so much more experience now, I'm going to bet on the underdog this year.

fenderputty6617d ago

Mesh has NEVER had one positive thing to say about the PS3. He never will have something positive to say either.

Back on topic: Tomorrows sneak peak is going to be awesome. FROM was a rushed launch title. The leaps they made with their engine from RFOM to R&C is comparable to the leap they're making with R&C to RFOM2. It's going to look bonkers. It's going to have tons of improvements, a lot of which we already know. I'm super excited. I can't wait to play on lagless servers again. COD4 gets annoying sometimes.

Video Game Franchises in Danger of Being Forgotten

The gaming industry moves at such a pace that it’s not surprising we’ve seen countless franchises fall into obscurity over the years.

Im surprised that a game with a heritage of Medal of Honor is in this list.

cthulhucultist559d ago

There is a rumour that Driver 1 & 2 remasters will be released for Switch and presumably for other systems as well.

https://www.gamingbible.com...

Not sure however whether this results into new games in the near future.

HellspawnPR1981559d ago

Ninja Gaiden? Splinter Cell? Tenchu? Virtua Fighter? Killer Instinct? Killzone?

DefenderOfDoom2559d ago

I would very much enjoy
a new dedicated single player Killzone campaign. With a fun multi-player.

cthulhucultist559d ago

Tenchu and Killer Instict would be great indeed!

Unfortunately new Killzone game does not seem to be in the works

Virtua Fighter is going to receive a new entry!

https://www.dualshockers.co...

Splinter Cell is likely to be one of the remasters launching next year (not sure whether this has to do anything with the remake previously announced)

https://toronto.ubisoft.com...

HellspawnPR1981559d ago

Yeah, read the news about a new Virtua Fighter and I am so ready for it. Splinter Cell at this point I don't believe anything Ubisoft says plus I don't think modern day Ubisoft can make a decent stealth game. They will likely fuck it up.

Inverno559d ago

Basically everything at this point as companies have no concern with preservation.

Ranking the Resistance Games From Worst To Best

While it's been on ice for as long as it was around, the Resistance franchise has no shortage of quality.

My take:

Single player
3, 2, 1

Multiplayer
3, 1, 2

Overall
3, 2, 1

I beat the lengthy single player in 1 multiple times and spent hours in the online too. Plus 1 featured my home town! Special mention to the audio design in 1: playing that with surround headphones blew me away.

Note: I have the platinum for Resistance 2.

Eidolon1481d ago

Resistance 1 MP will always be my favorite. Call it nostalgia or whatever, but that was my jam, felt more balance, natural.

Miraak82 1481d ago

i have the platinium too , 10k kills in online ranked matches was no joke . Took me 3-4 months straight grinding but it was fun . To put it in perspective you only got like 25 kills per match if you were 1st place every match that's at Least 400 matches in 1st

Sciurus_vulgaris1482d ago

I only played the 3 main Resistance titles. My ranking would be;
1. Resistance 3
2. Resistance: Fall of Man
3. Resistance 2

GoodGuy091482d ago

Man I loved 3's campaign. Another gem stuck on the ps3 and who knows if insomniac will go back to the franchise.

fr0sty1481d ago

Resistance, Warhawk, MAG, Motorstorm, there's so many first party gems on PS3 that Sony has just left to die...

P_Bomb1482d ago

Never played Burning Skies but I still have Retribution.

monkey6021481d ago

Burning Skies was about 3 hours long and rather inconsequential. You haven't missed anything

porkChop1481d ago

Honestly, Burning Skies was shit. There's no two ways about it. At first I thought it looked terrible, then I second guessed myself. Big mistake.

darthv721480d ago

Retribution has this really cool feature where you could use a PS3 to link a controller to it and play. So if you had a 2000 or 3000 hooked to a tv, you can use a real controller. All of this predates the PSP Go's ability to sync a sixaxis to it via bluetooth.

Yui_Suzumiya1481d ago

Resistance 3 was shocking and brilliant. Loved it.

Why Resistance Was So Incredible

While the studio is best known for Spyro the Dragon, Ratchet, and Clank, and Spider-Man back on the PS3 the studio broke from creating platformers and made one of the highest regarded science-fiction first-person shooters of all time. This was Resistance and it remains one of Sony's most acclaimed and dormant franchises.

Jin_Sakai1838d ago

Really wish Insomniac would bring back Resistance!

darthv721837d ago

Agreed. Until they do a new entry, I'd love to get the two portable games remade into console versions. Maybe in a nice compilation with the mainline titles.

monkey6021837d ago

Burning Skies wasn't a great game.
It was only a couple of hours long and there was nothing memorable about it.

I'd love a new entry

darthv721837d ago

^monkey, hence why it should be remade into a better version.

SullysCigar1838d ago

Resistance 3's campaign was gorgeous for the time - and an awesome game to boot.

monkey6021837d ago

I remember being put off by it because McHale wasn't the MC but it turned out to be my favourite campaign

CBaoth1837d ago

by and large though the Resistance IP featured many protagonists (4 altogether I think if you include the portables). One of the reasons I enjoyed it was not being shackled to individual story arcs. Very rare for a major franchise.

Army_of_Darkness1836d ago

My favorite resistance game as well! It seriously had creepy, scary a$$ moments bro! It made me want an action horror game from insomniac!

Mr_cheese1837d ago

Remember playing this through online co op with the move controller and gun attachment! What a game!

BlackIceJoe1838d ago

I've said in the past I'd like to see this series return and have it take place years later, like in the present.

I'll give you an example if I'm not mistaken the last game ended in the 50s, so if it was to take place some time in the 2020s you'd have an opportunity to see how the world changed after the fall of Chimera and all the new technology that came out of that war.

Just like in our universe we all know WW2 happened, but we never experienced it, so if the next Resistance game takes place years later so too would people in that universe know a war look place against the Chimera, they just wouldn't know what it really was like.

So getting to see how that universe would respond to the Chimera reemerging would be interesting.

Imagine a little kid talking with his grandfather about the war and the kid just thinks it was just a made up bed time horror story and what was said was worse than what really took place, but now that the Chimera come back the kid will find out why years later the old timer adults were still waiting for the Chimera to return.

I think there is great potential for this series still and I really believe the best way forward for Resistance is make it have a time jump too.

So hopefully this series will return.

Dragonopolis1837d ago

Great Idea. I'd play that version.

Resistance was a great game and of all the remasters.... I would play a great remastered version of resistance series as well

waverider1837d ago

I was blown away when i played for the first time Resistance on the PS3. Great Game. Also liked very much an played for hundred of hours the Co-op of R2. The SP campaign of R3 is also excelent. I really hope that Sony and Insomniac annouced the Remaster of the Series and a new chapter. They got story to do that.

Jambola121837d ago

Resistance 2 was one of the first few games i played on ps3 and I loved it, would definitely finish that again :D

Chevalier1837d ago

I loved all the Resistance games. But part 2 online was amazing. The Marksmen for the Spec Ops type class when it was fully upgraded was such an amazing weapon. Oh man I wish they release all the games again and let us play part 2 online again.
