previews already? damn that was quick

Ha ha, come on, how can you preview a game which will be out 7 months later (release date is Feb 2009). That makes absolutely no sense.

Or let's go further, let's preview game projects too.

and the single player story more than anything else.

While Resistance:FoM was my first PS3 game and it did get a lot of online play out of me, there was something that just felt a bit off about it.

I always thought that it felt a little too fast paced for a 40 player game. Not many people worked as a team...which isn't a problem exclusive to Resistance. 60 players is just intimidating to me. Thankfully Insomniac is all about the option of making matches smaller.

wish we could see the convention video in a direct feed...that cell phone capture was garbage...those screens in that preview though show that it does have a good bit of polish for such an early build..

THIS is what a "next-gen" FPS should feature. Not just a few minor upgrades and some new graphics, but a full-blown featurelist and a size and scope that is simply ridiculous (especially on a console). COD 4 was lauded for its exceptional multiplayer innovation and features, and after reading this preview, if Resistance 2 doesn't recieve some kind of award or recognition for its technical achievements then I will lose whatever remaining shred of hope I have for gaming journalism as a whole.

If all these things in the game end up working out like they are said to, we could have a masterpiece on our hands.

I agree with you. Gaming Journalism has become alot biased and anti-sony lately. Hopefully the trend will change this year, as ps3 established itself as the proper current-gen console.

"Lately"? dude its been like that for years. Since PS2 to be more precise, but since Sp3 launched it has reached new level, open one, for first time they (journalist) show their bias and dont care what gamers think. Just way to many sites, so called "experts"(most of them uneducated), people with opinion. It is always "I! I THINK THIS! I think that! I! I ! I!". It is never what wider audience might think, it is always what that certain journalist thinks that ends up in preview. Like for example IGN KZ2 preview. That guy is writing his feeling and how "HE" is not overwhelmed. Screw gamers that might be overwhelmed, he is the one that matters.
I hope gaming journalism collapses one day, like gaming did durring Atari with fload of shi..y games, now there is a fload of podcasts, sites, blogs and other useless pointless stuff.

Wait a sec. was that a screenshot from R2 multiplayer:|
That looked awesome. I mean its a multiplayer game and look how much detailed are the character models and the lightening. Now thats what we call a proper jump from 1st gen game to 3rd gen.
