New Main Character in Resistance 3 Confirmed

PS3Center Writes: "Resistance 3 is the new featured game for Game Informer, and it all starts with an epic revealing in next weeks issue. Resistance 3 is the cover story and within the pages you will find details about campaign, the new main character, locales, weapon systems, and more! Yes, I know I got excited too! Noting that it does mention "New Main Character" so does this pretty much confirm Hale is out?"

Resistance 3: How Insomniac Games got its groove back.

Fishy Fingers5010d ago (Edited 5010d ago )

You telling me you cant judge a finished game from some concept art and a few screens? Worry not, N4G will teach you how.

thor5010d ago

Good one Fishy Fingers, most of N4G will not get it and will disagree with bananas anyway.

heroicjanitor5009d ago

I thought this was confirmed by the Resistance 2 ending...

JUDALATION5009d ago

PLAYSTION PLUS AREA IS A ASSANS CREED BETA LIVE FOR ALL PLAYSTATION PLUS USERS!!!

InactiveUser5009d ago

Another horrible comment by movements.

Coming from a Resistance fan.. again you're jumping to conclusions after seeing 0.001% of the game.

"I think Insomniac Games has already redeemed themselves with those Screens that were leaked recently."
"Resistance 3: How Insomniac Games got its groove back."

You've seen about a dozen pictures, about half being concept art. You've seen 0 gameplay.. but somehow they've already redeemed themselves and 'got their groove back' already.

Absolutely wrong, just like the 24+ that have agreed with you so far.

bananasNmonkeys got it right with his reply. Believe it when you see it. I want it to be the greatest PS3 game to date. That doesn't mean I'm going to say it is after not even seeing how it plays.

I'm ready to praise it as much as it deserves it, and I'm also ready to attack it for its faults. (to movements) To keep jumping to conclusions of it being great when you've seen nearly nothing is simply ridiculous.

UltraNova5009d ago

Why is everyone changing their lead characters these days is beyond me (Dante, Cole and now Hale)...

Megaton5009d ago

Hale will probably be a boss. Maybe last boss.

Amazed at how many amazing games coming out for the PS3.

mugoldeneagle035009d ago

That Hale is "Out". I know R2 ended the way it did (no spoilers), but he's still gotta be central to the plot. Not as a main character but the storyline.

I said a few months ago I'm hoping he turns out to be the final boss, in whatever form possible, your guess is as good as mine. And it will come down to Hale pulling a Darth Vader on the Emperor (Chimera) and maybe you controlling Hale to beat the Chimeran race & complete the story.

Just my thoughts :)

AntoineDcoolette5009d ago (Edited 5009d ago )

Yeah, Hale can't just be forgotten altogether for the third installment. Not after he went all Chimera hive mind with his red glowing eyes and cryptic tone of voice. Sure he took a bullet to the head, but that's all we saw and know.

Britney Spears5009d ago

yea i also think hale might be a bad guy in R3,maybe the main boss.we will see...

Liquid_Ocelot5009d ago (Edited 5009d ago )

Your comment says 'no spoilers' yet you give lots of OBVIOUS hints in your comment about what happened in 2 without [us] having to guess much :P

I haven't played R:FoM, and I was in the BETA of R2 but I never bought it(I bought LBP instead). I know! I know! I should kill myself. XD
I've been trying to get them both along with The Orange Box, but is so f*cking impossible trying to get one in good condition or even new online. Bah, fuck Puerto Rico..

Ps: excuse my english

gamerdude1325009d ago

Spoilers, man. Spoilers. I was gonna get my PS3 with Resistance 1 and 2, Uncharted 1 and 2, and Killzone 3 at holiday. Now I know the end to Resistance 2 before even starting the first game.

The moral here is... uh... think about others?

When did Insomniac lose there "groove"? Resistance 2 is underrated.

MastaMold5009d ago

If R3 has a new main character its not Capelli go back and watch R3 teaser trailer its the guy that gets into the moving train last he does not look like Capelli even on those leaked pics from last week

pixelsword5009d ago

You will only be Capelli for a part of the game.

OtherWhiteMeat5010d ago

Hope he doesn't look like an emo.

Croash5010d ago

Lololol.

Well we already know who he is anyway, and Mr. Capelli sure doesn't look like an emo.

acky15009d ago

I'd prefer Hale, or someone completely new cos Capelli came across as a generic army guy and was really annoying...don't wanna play as someone I don't like.

KILLERAPP5010d ago

Hale will be back, just within a few hours of the single player hale will appear, I don’t think he will be the bad guy this probably means that you will have a main character for a while and then he probably dies and you continue as Hale or you play half of the game as Hale and the other part as the other character but reaching the same final spot where the two characters finally meet…

ActionBastard5009d ago

Didn't Capelli blow Hale's head off at the end of R2?

ZombieNinjaPanda5009d ago

@ Action Bastard

We did, but Hale was a fully converted Chimera (sorta). I don't think a single bullet was enough to take him down.

First scene might be a flashback of Capelli shooting Hale and Hale standing there staring at him like he simply slapped him.

KILLERAPP5009d ago

Yeah but Hale was already not human he could have easily survive that…

Da One5009d ago

It was an honor sir *shoots*

Reibooi5009d ago

Personally I think it's somewhat likely Hale is not dead and will end up being the main bad guy that Capelli will have to take down.

Although on the other hand one would think that if the bullet to the head at the end of R2 didn't kill Hale that Hale would have just killed Capelli which didn't happen if Capelli is the new main character.

Either way I'm sure Insomniac will make another incredible game. The screens we have seen so far look incredible and I'm looking forward to being able to play it and see what they have up their sleeves for the Multi player this time.

Joostin5009d ago

He didn't want to become Daedalus...so here are the choices. He is either dead as a doornail OR...he is the new antagonist. Becoming one with the Chimera like Sheppard aka. Daedalus did.

No way he is a main character anymore. Sorry Killer, but that would be the most cliche and predictable thing to do. I think starting over with a new hero similar to Resistance Retribution will work wonders for the series. Like opening a new chapter in the story. Most amazing stories span more than one lifetime. Read the Children of Hurin or The Lays of Beleriand. Both Tolkien stories that I enjoyed far more than LOTR. The Lays of Beleriand had several protagonists spanning hundreds of years in the story. Trust me a new main character is great for the story development.

Ju5009d ago

Capelli took the shot. But that's how that ended. Did he miss? Did Hale survive? Did he evolve?

What we know, though is, Hale killed Daedalus. So, if he did, who is that guy on the front page - if it isn't Daedalus, huh?

silvacrest5010d ago

since we will have a new main character, what im wondering is if hale is a boss in the game or if he is even present at all

CREESH5010d ago

R1 was a good solid shooter with crap GFX, R2 was just a crap game with crap GFX.

R3? I don't have much hope.

ELite_Ghost5010d ago

not sure how R1 had crap graphics... it raped halo 3 in graphics and had 2.5 times more players online with way bigger maps...

Doesnt look like uve played any of em, so I don`t think theres any hope of you not to stfu and say BS

Aloren5009d ago

Hmmm it's probably been a while since you played R1, cause i assure you that while R2 looks better than Halo 3, R1 doesn't "rape" halo 3 in graphics.

lexington5009d ago

I hear the new character is a 3d version of bozo the clown. But he'll only be rendered in 1024X672 because the POWA of da' cell has some trouble with making the nose look realistic. POWA LOL

gamerzBEreal175010d ago

resistance 1 had a very good gfx style and it was a launch title development started on that game 3 years before ps3 was even out resistance2s gfx are great still till today (giant monster boss?) the scale and everything on that game was beautiful so i dont know if u even played it are what and it was not a shit game at all 32 players online co-op okay story etc the series is a a great one with a big fanbase

MONOLITHICIDE5009d ago

um 32player online? what resistance game did u play. FoM had 40player and R2 had 60player with coop

ActionBastard5009d ago

It's obvious you haven't played either if that is truly how you feel.

Resistance 3 is such a great game. One of my all time bests.

cooperdnizzle727d ago

Couldn’t agree more. Still love It as a shooter to this day.

Just something about that game. I really wish they would just do a remaster, don’t even need a remake just bring it up to todays out put, touch up a few things if any, and I am there to buy it day one.

Of course I would love a remake built from the ground up. As long as they treated it like Shadow of the Colossus, or close to those type of remake. Wouldn’t want it to get the RE treatment…. Just because the game is already paced so perfect and hits all the right beats that I wouldn’t touch that aspect.

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.

Eidolon784d ago

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

Miraak82 784d 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_vulgaris785d ago

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

GoodGuy09785d ago

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

fr0sty784d ago

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

P_Bomb785d ago

Never played Burning Skies but I still have Retribution.

monkey602784d ago

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

porkChop784d 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.

darthv72783d 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_Suzumiya784d 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.

Really wish Insomniac would bring back Resistance!

darthv721140d 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.

monkey6021140d 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

darthv721140d ago

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

SullysCigar1141d ago

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

monkey6021140d ago

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

CBaoth1140d 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_Darkness1139d 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_cheese1140d ago

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

BlackIceJoe1141d 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.

Dragonopolis1140d 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

waverider1140d 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.

Jambola121140d ago

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

Chevalier1140d 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.
