Resistance: Fall of Man Sequel Ready for Pre Alpha Testing

Ian Ennis of Ripten.com recently got word from a supposedly "trusted source" that the upcoming Resistance Fall of Man sequel is ready for the pre-Alpha testing stage.

Being that there almost has been no information given or screenshots. Its hard to tell what this game will be like. However, as Ian Ennis of ripten.com said,

"After the initial testing is over, we may see a lot of buzz around this game as testers talk about their experiences. Whatever the case may be, I'm hopeful Resistance 2 will be a smash success just like the first."

insomniac dnt sleep do they?:)

Danja6765d ago

dude u read my mind I was thinking the same thing....still I don't mind this game will rock no doubt

gtgcoolkid6765d ago

I was actually about to say the same. Can't wait for this. Man 2008 is gonna be awesome for PS3.

snoop_dizzle6765d ago

oh great after this year with all the games, i have to buy a bunch more games next year! Where is all this money going to come from? :(

ruibing6765d ago

They must have been moving people in development from R&C to Resistance as soon as the engine was being finalized and all that were left were glitches and tweaks. These people really know how to tune out quality games at a good steady rate. The amazing thing is that Insomniac is suppose to be the best developer to work for as they have weekly lan parties on Fridays, good benefits, and a very casual atmosphere.

Doppy6765d ago

I feel your pain 2008 is going to cause gamers to go bankrupt. I just bought Call of Duty 4, Mario Galaxy, Assassin's Creed, Heavenly Sword, Warhawk, Halo 3, and Mass Effect.

That would have cost me over $400 had I not bought them from gamefly for only $300 (have 10% off and -$10, but I bought Mario at Toys r us)

Now I have to buy MGS4, Killzone, Resistance 2, Final Fantasy 13 vs., Super Smash Bros., GTA 4, and possibly God of War 3, and Gears of War 2.

Doppy6765d ago

I hope they make Resistance 2 multiplayer very similar to Warhawk. Have a bunch of vehicles that you can duke it out with (old fighter planes, and chimeran? vehicles), and add more crazy weapons. I know this game is going to be good, the first Resistance was my favorite shooter since GoldenEye on Nintendo 64, and that's saying something.

I wonder what Insomniac is going to do graphically with this game. The frist Resistance had good graphics and great gameplay, Ratchet and Clank had great graphics and great gameplay; Therefore, I expect Resistance 2 to have mind blowing graphics and gameplay (Hopefully gameplay looks as good as the first games cutsceens).

I think Resistance is becoming Sony's Halo more so than Killzone (Killzone is Sony's Gears of War).

i can hope right? after seeing what they did with Ratchet, i'm looking forward to this game so much. i can only wonder what weapons they'll think up next.

btkadams6765d ago

yay for 2008. killzone better come out early 08 cuz i dont think sony wants either of these games to have to fight each other, each deserve their own recognition (that is if kz lives up to the hype).

TheHater6765d ago

Do these guys know how to make games or what? They are one of the best in the business, or hell even the best.

snoop_dizzle6765d ago

R&C was awesome now this is coming. Seriously its a great time to be a gamer.

Relientk776765d ago

oh totally... I 100% agree with you if Insomniac Games isnt the best they are one of them ... they are amazing

Relientk776765d ago

I love Insomniac Games... way to go guys

Resistance 2 ... and im sure as hell damn looking forward to it .... gonna be there on release date at midnight in 2008

TheHater6765d ago

I might join you if I don't have class until 10PM in the night. But this was the first FPS to actually get me playing FPS on a console. I usually play all my FPS on my PC

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...

HellspawnPR1981558d 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.

Eidolon1480d ago

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

Miraak82 1480d 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_vulgaris1481d ago

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

GoodGuy091481d ago

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

fr0sty1480d ago

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

P_Bomb1481d 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

porkChop1480d 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.

darthv721479d 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_Suzumiya1480d 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_Sakai1837d ago

Really wish Insomniac would bring back Resistance!

darthv721836d 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.

monkey6021836d 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

darthv721836d ago

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

SullysCigar1837d ago

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

monkey6021836d ago

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

CBaoth1836d 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_cheese1836d ago

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

BlackIceJoe1837d 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.

Dragonopolis1836d 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

waverider1836d 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.

Jambola121836d ago

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

Chevalier1836d 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.
