I really hope people don't go potty over this the same way they did during the World of the Worlds radio plays.

CrAppleton6370d ago

Right.. would be a shame if this was met with negative feedback. It's nice to see Sony getting more involved like this

Neco5126370d ago

Why would anyone flip out over this?

CrAppleton6370d ago

Because people have a tendency to NOT read the whole story. They might see America Under Attack! and flip balls about it. Who knows..

bgrundman6370d ago

People would probably think it was an issue of the national enquirer or something like that.

CrAppleton6370d ago

lol.. I can see the pandemonium now.. **sigh**

Hobb6370d ago

This is a neat way to get the public envoleved but it might end up in disaster

InMyOpinion6370d ago (Edited 6370d ago )

Nevermind. At first I thought they were to put it beside real news in real newspapers. That would have been diastrous.

Proxy6370d ago

Even if it was with real newspapers, who's going to believe that America was attacked by a monster taller than a skyscraper.

InMyOpinion6370d ago

People would see the headline and associate it with terror attacks and 911.

America is going down to the chimera........ ahhhhhhh

bgrundman6370d ago

I wonder if anybody would actually fall for it?

Neco5126370d ago

people are ignorant.. they will

bgrundman6370d ago

Sadly, I could totally see it happening because people are too lazy to fact check things.

Neco5126370d ago

you are so right...... im lazy and i dont fact check either, so when is theis attack coming?

Spinitus6370d ago

hahaha the people in boston are gonna fall for this, just like what happened with the mooninites.

bgrundman6370d ago

This is a pretty interesting marketing ploy.

CrAppleton6370d ago

Isn't it? What's next? A fake report on the evening news?

CrAppleton6370d ago

Actually.. that doesn't sound like that bad of an idea!

bgrundman6370d ago

All they would have to do is market it as a viral video and it could make it on the news.

bgrundman6370d ago

I heard the new Resistance is kind of a disappointment in the Single player campaign. Is that true?

Neco5126370d ago

Its on the PS3 isnt it? i think thaats enough said

CrAppleton6370d ago

Come on now.. I haven't had any hands on time with it yet, but I've heard the same as you Grundy. I liked the first one though, and I'm sure this one can't be that bad

bgrundman6370d ago

I have heard that the single player campaign is a disappointment, but the independent coop campaign makes up for it. I am not hating on the game, just stating what I have read.

CrAppleton6370d ago

Right.. the "come on now" was mostly for Neco.. but I get what you're saying. Sony needs this to be a killer app though.. Not enough good FPS's on the PS3

yoghurt6370d ago

No its not true. Its absolutely fantastic, enemys of epic size, incredible graphics. If you have a PS3, you owe it to yourself to give this a spin - the multiplayer aspect is just the icing on the already delicious cake my friend

ShinMaster6370d ago (Edited 6370d ago )

And better than the 1st nonetheless. You get so many enemies on screen, it's crazy.

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.

cthulhucultist550d 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.

HellspawnPR1981550d ago

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

DefenderOfDoom2550d ago

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

cthulhucultist550d 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...

HellspawnPR1981550d 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.

Inverno550d 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.

Eidolon1471d ago

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

Miraak82 1471d 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_vulgaris1473d ago

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

GoodGuy091473d ago

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

fr0sty1472d ago

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

P_Bomb1472d ago

Never played Burning Skies but I still have Retribution.

monkey6021472d ago

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

porkChop1472d 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.

darthv721471d 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_Suzumiya1472d 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_Sakai1828d ago

Really wish Insomniac would bring back Resistance!

darthv721828d 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.

monkey6021827d 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

darthv721827d ago

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

SullysCigar1828d ago

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

monkey6021827d ago

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

CBaoth1827d 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_Darkness1827d 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_cheese1827d ago

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

BlackIceJoe1828d 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.

Dragonopolis1827d 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

waverider1827d 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.

Jambola121827d ago

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

Chevalier1827d 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.
