"Guys, I think Ted missed the R1 in that question. There's no Trophy or Home support for R1 coming. Sorry."

"Resistance 2 came out for its first public viewing at Sony's PlayStation Day in London, and we took the opportunity to try it out. While only a limited multiplayer demo, what we played left us with plenty to be excited about. Considering a good six months' worth of development time remains to polish and perfect things before this fall's release, the game already looks impressive, easily equaling the standard of the original. That amounts to no small feat for a game supporting 60 players runni..."

"Dualshock 3 compatible games include MotorStorm, Formula One Championship Edition, Resistance: Fall of Man, Gran Turismo Prologue, and many more.
Several of the games will get the rumble compatibility through an update from PLAYSTATION Network. So keep your PS3 connected when you first play a game with the DualShock 3."

"Got at least 2500 bones to drop on the centerpiece of a lifetime? If Resistance: Fall of Man is your thing, you'll definitely want this authentic Chimera skull prop—used in the filming of the Resistance TV spot—to help complete your collection of things that will scare the bejeezus out of visitors and house guests. It's super pricey, with the auction house expecting it to sell in the $3000 range, and will most likely be snapped up by Ted Price from Insomniac Games anyway, but it's still fun t..."

"While Home for the PlayStation 3 may have generated plenty of buzz for Sony at last year's Game Developers Conference, its late arrival and the setting in of reality may have made it put a damper on the hype surrounding the service. We've had our doubts that Home may ultimately be nothing more than a prettier Second Life, a glorified 3D chat room, one that only makes getting to the games we actually want to play a bit of a chore. But we've recently learned some very interesting things about h..."

"Sony Japan is set to continue a PlayStation tradition with the PlayStation 3: an official budget lineup. A Japanese online retailer has posted listings for the first set of PS3 titles to fall under the new "PlayStation 3 the Best" lineup.

According to the retailer, PS3 owners in Japan will soon be able to pick up PlayStation 3 the Best versions of Resistance, FolksSoul, Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Gundam: Target in Sight, and Ridge Racer 7 for 3,800 yen each. All five will arrive on 3/19."

"Following the recent success of colourful platform adventure Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction, developer Insomniac Games is wasting absolutey no time in cranking up audience expectation levels for its next exclusive PlayStation 3 offering.


Moreover, the studio has today released a rather sexy selection of screenshots taken from its upcoming sequel to the hugely popular sci-fi first-person shooter Resistance: Fall of Man, which successfully carved itself a fan niche as an acc..."

"RESISTANCE 2

I just got my latest GameInformer and its cover feature is Resistance 2!!!!!!

Checking it out now... will update. (didn't see this on first two pages so assumed it hasn't been posted)

EDIT 1: HUGE cooperative game... EIGHT-PLAYER story-driven campaign along side single-player campaign. SIXTY-PLAYER Competitive modes... HUGE United States Landscapes as backdrops.

EDIT 2: "It is, in short, a tour de force for the untapped might of the PlayStation 3"

EDIT 3: Narrative..."

"Surfer Girl, the blogger with the inside scoop, posted the first screenshot of Resistance: Fall of Man 2. She claims the screenshot (to the left) is from an early version of the game dated around last April or May 2007.

Of course the graphics will improve you silly gamer."

"You know that game you've been working on, with the WWII aliens? Well, if you were planning on calling it Resistance 2, then you’d better think again. Last week Sony Computer Entertainment America Inc. filed to trademark the name Resistance 2.

Last month we reported that Resistance 2 was ready for it's pre-Alpha testing stage. Combined with the trademark information, what does this mean exactly? Just that there is a likely chance for a sequel to Resistance. It does not verify the game exi..."

"A trusted source has let us know that Resistance 2, the sequel to the PS3 launch title, is ready for the pre-Alpha testing stage. According to our source, Sony is going to be hiring a ton of testers in January to put Resistance 2 through a stress test.

Resistance was one of the best PS3 exclusives, and without a doubt we’re sure Resistance 2 will be on everyone’s wish list when a release date is announced."

"US, November 9, 2007 - The PlayStation 3's strongest launch title looks to have some very long legs, especially since Insomniac continues to pump out content for its first PlayStation 3 title, Resistance: Fall of Man. The game has seen a number of patches that have tweaked and refined the gameplay, as well as a downloadable map pack that gave gamers new arenas to wage war in.

Insomniac is set to release the second map pack sometime around the end of this month, and we have the first screen..."

"Insomniac Games is indeed developing Resistance: Fall of Man 2 (no, not Rise of Man, as some people have created) tentatively scheduled for release next November. Aside from the first and last level, the game takes place entirely in the United States, where someone who may or may not be Sgt. Nathan Hale (who plays a role in the story) has to deal with the Chimeran invasion of the US in such places as San Francisco and Chicago. And there is a cliffhanger ending that sets up for a third title. ..."

Given that the Playstation 3 currently doesn't have as many games available as the other consoles, it still does hold a fair bit of games. But are people making the most of the Playstation 3's capabilities? Well it seems that out of the many games that have been released only around 16 games so far are using the Playstation 3's SPE.

Whilst there may be more, the 16 games that are listed below have pretty much been confirmed to be using the PS3's SPE:

1. Resistance: Fall of Man
2. Ratchet and Clan...

"The second starter pack is scheduled for launch on September 19th 2007, retailing for EUR 599 (GBP 407)."

"Today, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe CEO David Reeves confirmed in a press conference that the price cut would only be for North Americans, and that the console would definitely not be getting a price cut from the current £425/599 euro price (approx $850). Aussies are getting a similar deal--there will be no price drop from the current price of A$999. Another blow was dealt to European and Aussie gamers with the news that the souped-up 80GB version would also not be coming to the regions..."

"Well, we were all wondering when that massive Resistance update would happen, but there's no more wondering: it's here. Below find the huge list of changes, upgrades, and enhancements this download provides:

* Being able to view your PlayStation Network Friends list from our in-game lobby
* In-game method for reporting abusive players
* Voice chat through TV speakers if you don't have a microphone
* Clan leadership transfer
* Human character lip syncing and facial a..."

"Global servers for Resistance: Fall of Man will go online tomorrow evening, bringing European, American and Japanese players together for the first time.

Sony Computer Entertainment Europe explained this morning that Resistance servers will be down between 2am and 6pm BST tomorrow while they are updated.

Also debuting tomorrow are two new maps, which will be sold as "Map Pack 1", both through the PS3 Store and in-game, for GBP 2.99.

The maps are Westmorland (a snowy sniper's paradise..."

"The only question that lingers on is how did the church come into direct contact with Resistance: Fall Of Man. I had no idea the papacy played Playstation."

"The advances in games' ability to portray a convincing world have come so rapidly that the industry has not necessarily appreciated the impact certain images can make - that photo-realism in games can create the same impact as a photo or filmed image, especially when a real life location is represented.

This state of incomprehension seems likely to change considering recent reactions to real locations appearing within games, especially when guns and/or crime are involved.

At present, g..."

""I agree with my honourable friend. I think it's important that any of the companies engaged in promoting these types of goods have some sense of responsibility and also some sensitivity to the feelings of others.

"I think this is an immensely difficult area, the relationship between what happens with these games and its impact on young people," the prime minister went on.

"I've no doubt this debate will go on for a significant period of time, but I do agree. I think it is important th..."

""The inclusion of the Cathedral in the game could not be considered to be an infringement of any copyright in it... public buildings are generally fair game for inclusion in videogames, films et cetera, and it is something that their owners just have to accept.

"What isn't fair game, however, is if the building is presented in a way that could be said to be defamatory in relation to those associated with it and this might be what the Church is more concerned about. Also if the representa..."

"A lot of talk has been going on about the Church of England's protests over Sony including the Manchester Cathedral in their hit game Resistance: Fall of Man. The church has asked that the game be pulled off the shelves and that Sony issue a formal apology regarding it."

"The Church says Sony did not ask for permission to use the cathedral and was wrong to choose Manchester - a city plagued by gun violence which has left tens of youngsters dead.

The Bishop of Manchester, the Rt Rev Nigel McCulloch, said: "It is well known that Manchester has a gun crime problem.

"For a global manufacturer to re-create one of our great cathedrals with photo-realistic quality and then encourage people to have gun battles in the building is beyond belief and highly irrespon..."

"Fans of MotorStorm and Resistance: Fall of Man were looking forward to this Thursday so they could download new maps, game modes and other changes to the gameplay. We contacted SCEA directly to find out what the delays were facing these two content packs.

Racers looking to tear up the desert were eagerly awaiting the MotorStorm 1.2 update, which would have provided a Time Attack mode, as well as races against multiple phantom opponents. Players would also experience improved online play. W..."

"Back in early March, Insomniac Games sent word along that Resistance: Fall of Man would be seeing a pair of new maps come May. It's the end of the month now, and we've still yet to see the fabled map pack. What's the hold-up?

Greg Phillips of Sony Computer Entertainment America confirmed to CVG today that the map pack has been pushed back one week to June 7th to guarantee compatibility between the various world servers, which are being linked now that the PlayStation 3 has launched in mos..."
