First PS3 Game Breaks 1Million

According to VGcharts.org Resistance:Fall of man has sold over 1 Million copies to date. They have sales recorded as following:

Japan: 114,000+
Europe: 220,000+
USA: 660,000+

Official confirmation would be nice. But if this is so it will be a great milestone for Sony and Insomniacs joint venture.

1 in 3 ps3 owners own Resistence...exclusives sell.

Thugbot1876984d ago (Edited 6984d ago )

I would have thought RFOM would have sold way more than that.

techie6984d ago (Edited 6983d ago )

oh don't be lame. it's only just launched in Europe. Consider this...nearly everyone who buys a ps3 will buy resistance. That is a very good thing for Insomniac and Sony.

Thug. You have to think about who buys PS3's. Not all people like shooters...some people just don't want it. Or want to wait for something else. But 1/3 is very strong. You don't really got that with Playstation...usually you see sales of 8million but the user base is about 50million. So it's a nice change and I expect it to continue this way, this generation. Why? Because their inhouse games will ve very strong this time round...I've been researching them a lot and they look very strong. So good times.

No ones defensive Thug...just saying why I thought you were wrong.

Thugbot1876984d ago

I wasn’t singling out Europe. I realize it’s only been out a week there. What I was saying is that there was so much hype about the game here in the US and so much comparison between that and GOW. That you would have though in general it would have already sold a million games. That’s no diss on RFOM the reviews were great and it looks like an awesome game.

Everyone get’s so defensive about any comment made toward the PS3, not everything is an attack.

SuperSaiyan46984d ago

I think the 1 of 4 exclusives left for Sony they better start deepbrownnosing InsomniWACK for games cos thats the best they are gonna get.

LMFAO Gears is over 3million hahaha

eques judicii6984d ago

this is good for sony, why do you have to hate so much?

fenderputty6984d ago

is one thrid of your install base. 1 million is more then one thrid of the PS3's install base. Take a math class before you post.

Husso6983d ago

3 mil out of 10

1 mill out of 2.8

see anything you fool.

Premonition6984d ago

Most of the people who make dumb comments are under the ages of 18, I bet that. As for the news its good to see Resistance is selling well, I predict Warhawk will probably sell much faster.

Black Republican6984d ago

stop hating ppl !! ! ! !

the SOny fanbase is not that high yet, it wasnt even released in Europe until past week

GZZZ lol

of course it will be way easier to sell a million for a game, when their is over 10 million xbox 360 owners

selling 1 million for a game when about only 2.8 million ppl own it is AMAZING

lilwingman6984d ago

This is awesome news. It has been a good couple of days for Sony. Finally! :P

It’s Time for Sony to Bring Back Killzone and Resistance

Sony is in the middle of an FPS crisis, but bringing back two much-loved PlayStation shooters could easily be the solution.

shinoff2183705d ago

I'd rather them focus on a rpg. Shooters can wait

just_looken705d ago

We have alot of rpg's but only cod for a AAA first person shooter unless you toss in xdefient but that is still fixing 2yr old beta issues.

We need more AAA fps games then rpg's

shinoff2183705d ago

Yea right. Theirs so many shooters on the market.

just_looken705d ago

@shin

Name 3 AAA fps games coming out this year

Cacabunga704d ago

I want Killzone yea, but as a gaas no buy!

Cacabunga704d ago

Yes we need some new FPS experiences.. COD is just not engaging enough. We want a Killzone back to the roots, not a Shadow Fall again..

Crows90705d ago

There's tons of RPG in the market too...what's your point exactly.

RaidenBlack704d ago

No Killzone or Resistance or Factions for you ... only Concord & FairGame$

Ironmike705d ago

No more rpg for a while would love a new resistance though

DarXyde705d ago

Agree on preferring RPGs though at this exact moment, it would be great to see more horror games. Another reason why Japan Studio closing is just tragic. Loved Siren.

just_looken705d ago (Edited 705d ago )

Fuck jim ryan japan studio did so much and helped alot with ports/localization

If they were around bloodborn would be possible like how they helped with demon souls ps4 finial fantasy port.

Horror games would be nice but the jim ryan axe job helped alot in killing playstation dev numbers/freedom and increased regulation with the new censorship crap.

1Victor705d ago

If Sony is bringing back a old shooter I would prefer Warhawk or better yet Starhawk

Rynxie705d ago

No thanks. Resistance and killzone were my all time favorite fps games. I completely dominated those games. I met good people, had a ton of fun and have a lot of fond memories. I don't want them to bring back these games, unless they tackle the cheating epidemic. I know I will absolutely hate these games, if I was to play them now, with all the effing cheating going on in fps games.

Psychonaut85704d ago

Bro the market is oversaturated with quality RPGs AND bloated shitty RPGs already.

Inverno705d ago

I honestly don't think we'll be seeing these anytime soon, if ever. Insomniac is officially on Marvel duty since it seems that all they're working on based off the leaks, and Horizon is more of what the casuals want these days. And I now I'll get a bunch of disagrees, but keep in mind that Resistance last got a game on the PS3 (2011) and Killzone was a launch title for the PS4 (2013). 10 years is a long time to make a game, if had any interest they would've done it by now, add InFamous to that list.

just_looken705d ago (Edited 705d ago )

Your right except the dates killzone mercenary was on ps vita 2013 same with resistance burning skies back in 2012

Good-Smurf705d ago

Both of those games are either made by smaller B team or completely different developer.
Killzone Mercenary developed by Guerilla Cambridge which is now defunct.
Resistamce Burning Skies wasn't made by Insomniac but by Nihilistic Software also defunct after the failure of CoD Black Ops Declassified.

just_looken705d ago

@good i know i never said they were

I mentioned them as they were the last games under that ip well killzone was last on ps4 but still even though they are different devs they led to the lose of the ip.

I highly doubt they made up for there budget cost even killzone on ps4 had low sales for such a large ip at the time.

shinoff2183705d ago

Infamous should atleast get remastered. I'd be cool with that

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH705d ago

Resistance 3 turned me off to the series but I’d love a reboot. KillZone I think can stay dead. Give me a new Resistance like 1or 2 and I’ll be happy.

JEECE705d ago

Except Resistance 1 and 3 were far more similar, 2 was the outlier. 3 was a great return to form after 2 changed so many things from the first game.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH705d ago

I didn’t like 3 and I didn’t find it similar to the first game.

Moegooner705d ago

2 was the best resistance game.

Michiel1989704d ago

agreed, the co-op was my fav in 2

Michiel1989704d ago

I'll keep saying it, have Bungie make a new resistance game, a match made in heaven. Although I imagine Bungie would be too proud to take over an existing IP.

Huey_My_D_Long705d ago

I honestly never cared or liked killzone. Huge resistance fan though. I remember so many nights playing melee only on USS Lexington, and I like the alt history vibe.

InUrFoxHole704d ago

Liked KZ more but both those games are better than MAG

Huey_My_D_Long704d ago

Facts.
Since I'm down memory lane, I also wish for remaster of Warhawk.

P_Bomb705d ago

I’ve been barking up that tree for years. 😢

OtterX705d ago

Keep barking, boy! Keep barking! Never give up hope. ;)

PlayStation 3 Games That Desperately Need a PS5 Remaster

The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.

OtterX795d ago (Edited 795d ago )

Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!

Rude-ro794d ago

I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.

darthv72794d ago

Funny you mention that... my son wanted to play some PS3 games in 3d on my PS tv and he was blown away by how good KZ3 was. It really was a great addition to the game. Im surprised there have not been more 3d games from that era being ported to the PSVR/VR2.

_SilverHawk_794d ago

resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword

Cacabunga794d ago

Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2

Profchaos794d ago (Edited 794d ago )

Killzone trilogy in VR would be amazing bonus points if they offer shadow fall.

There was a psvr1 Killzone project that supermassive was working on at one stage which wasn't up to scratch and Sony brand it back in house I was hoping we would see that on psvr2 eventually.

Personally I'd love to see some more love or acknowledgement of psvr2 from Sony in general it was a expensive headset and Sony barely acknowledge it's existence

seanpitt23794d ago

The amount of work needed to remaster these games wouldn't be beneficial on a financial and business sense.. MGS4 would probably be the best bet as it would need the least amount of work!

Iceball2000794d ago

YEAAASSSSS! I miss this franchise and wanna play it so bad again.

Father__Merrin794d ago

The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer

InUrFoxHole794d ago

The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.

Marcus Fenix794d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989794d ago

That's what Bungie should make, Ill keep saying it until it happens

1Victor794d ago (Edited 794d ago )

Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱

Michiel1989794d ago

Resistance was the best co-op fps I ever played after L4D2

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.

Knushwood Butt1471d ago

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.

Eidolon1470d ago

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

Miraak82 1469d 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_vulgaris1471d ago

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

GoodGuy091471d ago

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

fr0sty1470d ago

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

P_Bomb1471d ago

Never played Burning Skies but I still have Retribution.

monkey6021470d ago

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

porkChop1470d 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.

darthv721469d 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_Suzumiya1470d ago

Resistance 3 was shocking and brilliant. Loved it.
