At CES this week Sony Computer Entertainment announced a new Infected mode for its upcoming PSP third-person shooter, Resistance: Retribution.
This game mode will be unlocked when connecting a PSP to a PS3 with a copy of Resistance 2. This will then "infect" Resistance: Retribution, unlocking new ways to play, including:
Bend Studio: "Since Resistance: Retribution hit the PlayStation Plus Classics Catalog in February, we have been delighted to see so many players experience this Bend Studio classic all over again. During this time, we have been monitoring your feedback to ensure you can enjoy Resistance: Retribution to its fullest on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 consoles. Below, you can view the upcoming patch notes ahead of its release next week."
The Game Rating and Administration Committee of Korea has rated Resistance: Retribution for PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4, suggesting the PSP title will join the PlayStation Plus Classics Catalog.
This will def be easier to play on tv than originally designed. I remenber hooking psp to ps3 to use a ds3. Cumbersome but it worked. Its a good spin off.
Hope we will get Valkyria Chronicles 2-3 and Carnage Heart at some point. There's a bunch of psp games I never got a chance to play.
I didn’t know this title existed, so when I saw the headline, I thought a new Resistance was being made. Man I miss that series!
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.
I only played the 3 main Resistance titles. My ranking would be;
1. Resistance 3
2. Resistance: Fall of Man
3. Resistance 2
Man I loved 3's campaign. Another gem stuck on the ps3 and who knows if insomniac will go back to the franchise.
"New R2 weapon: HE .44 Magnum"
So I guess that means that Retribution will get the explosive magnum as well :D
The Magnum is my favorite new weapon is R2!
very nice stuff
Wow another reason to buy the game.
...Now that is a must-buy for me.
