Game Daily: Resistance 2 debuts the same week as Gears of War 2. Your thoughts.

Ted Price: Ultimately, as a PS3 owner and an Xbox 360 owner myself, those are two games I would get. I want to have the most entertaining experiences on both consoles, so I am going to get the games that have the best feedback. So far, Gears has had fantastic feedback and I think it looks beautiful. Resistance will make a lot of PS3 owners happy too.

Now, can anyone imagine Cliffy B saying anything positive about the competition like that?

El_Colombiano6110d ago

Didn't Cliffy diss Resistance 2 before?

Marceles6110d ago (Edited 6110d ago )

Cliff Bleszinski: Man, I think that competition is always positive, and bearing in mind that my game is better (laughs). I know and am friends with Ted (Insomniac), but I must say that despite being a good attempt, the quality falls short of the Gears of War 2.

I know Cliffy has to stand up for his franchise, but lol @ putting down Resistance 2's quality...look for something else to downplay but quality isn't one of them

candystop6110d ago

No he didn't downplay it and when RFOM1 was released and Gears got all the attention he went on to defend it and gave much praise to Ted. Cliffy and Ted are friends and I have no doubt have shared ideas.

Liquid Dust6110d ago

Ted makes my gaming world go round...

g3nkie6110d ago

Cliffy's head gets bigger and bigger as the days go on unfortunately....

ps360s6110d ago (Edited 6110d ago )

and the whole of the Resistance clan hehe...no smack talking to the oppisite companies which is good and will always earn respect from all gamers.

Sony as a whole with their first and second party has been very mature towards the whole gaming world as of late, something MS should be aswell...ever since Xbox 360 came to light , all MS is doing is talking numbers and talking smack about Sony...I own both consoles but I don't like whole a company just talks about how the other company is not doing well ect ect

just puts me off! I mean why not just concentrate on your own company!

I remember when Sony was like this...look what happen when the Ps3 debuted...but Sony learned their lession and moved on, which is good!

Well Ted Price your the man! lol

Cliffy B should be more like him!

I love Gears and looking forward to Gears 2 but please don't be talking BIG! when right next to you...you have something that seems bigger...

EDIT: Why o Why...maybe you're right... nice ID name BTW

Why o why6110d ago (Edited 6110d ago )

i honestly believe its a cutural thing. East vs West almost. Behaviour like Teds is common in the east and Cliffy's in the west. Humility vs Downplaying

Cheers;)

juuken6110d ago

Ted Price is cool in my book.

otherZinc6109d ago

Halo 3 was the game that affected the Movie Industry.

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.

cthulhucultist226d 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.

HellspawnPR1981226d ago

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

DefenderOfDoom2226d ago

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

cthulhucultist226d 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...

HellspawnPR1981226d 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.

Inverno226d 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.

Eidolon1147d ago

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

Miraak82 1147d 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_vulgaris1149d ago

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

GoodGuy091149d ago

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

fr0sty1148d ago

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

P_Bomb1148d ago

Never played Burning Skies but I still have Retribution.

monkey6021148d ago

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

porkChop1148d 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.

darthv721147d 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_Suzumiya1148d 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_Sakai1504d ago

Really wish Insomniac would bring back Resistance!

darthv721504d 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.

monkey6021503d 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

darthv721503d ago

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

SullysCigar1504d ago

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

monkey6021503d ago

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

CBaoth1503d 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_Darkness1503d 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_cheese1503d ago

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

BlackIceJoe1504d 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.

Dragonopolis1503d 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

waverider1503d 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.

Jambola121503d ago

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

Chevalier1503d 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.
