Another Sarcasticgamer.com writer responds to an earlier article on Sarcasticgamer.com regarding the Resistance 2 Beta.
From the article: "I was stoked when I got into the Resistance 2 beta. I loved Resistance: Fall of Man; it was the second game I picked up for my PS3, a couple of weeks after the launch, when I was sick of Blast Factor and had aced MotorStorm. It wasn't just any old sci-fi shooter because it was set in England, in the mid 1940s, and I dug the whole 'alternative timeline' story. I hadn't seen anything like it and despite the gameplay being a little average (the Chimera took about 20 shots to the head to kill) the entire design felt just right and I was convinced Insomniac were onto something with this whole 'aliens in Britain' thing."
The gaming industry moves at such a pace that it’s not surprising we’ve seen countless franchises fall into obscurity over the years.
There is a rumour that Driver 1 & 2 remasters will be released for Switch and presumably for other systems as well.

Not sure however whether this results into new games in the near future.
Ninja Gaiden? Splinter Cell? Tenchu? Virtua Fighter? Killer Instinct? Killzone?

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.
I only played the 3 main Resistance titles. My ranking would be;
1. Resistance 3
2. Resistance: Fall of Man
3. Resistance 2
Man I loved 3's campaign. Another gem stuck on the ps3 and who knows if insomniac will go back to the franchise.

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.
Resistance 3's campaign was gorgeous for the time - and an awesome game to boot.
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.
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.
Resistance 2 was one of the first few games i played on ps3 and I loved it, would definitely finish that again :D
Sure did.
but I completely 100% disagree with the article.
R2 IS bigger, better and more badass then R1 and it's going to sell, sell, sell....
I enjoyed it and im going to love the full game
the R2 beta blows so good that it makes me smile :)
Yep it was terrible, you gotta be some sort of f4ggot to enjoy it.
I'll buy Gears 2, L4D and COD5(on my 360, as all multiplats are superior on 360)
Damn im buying nothing on my PS3 this year.
