Resistance 3 Will Support 3D, PlayStation Move Sharp Shooter Thanks to Community Demand

PS Blog writes: "Greetings from the fabulous Egyptian Theater in Hollywood, where we’re in the middle of Insomniac’s 3rd Annual Community Day. We’ve been letting fans get some of their first hands-on gameplay with Resistance 3 and Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One. We’ve also been showing cool demos and producing Q&As to bring you in the form of Full Moon Show podcasts in the coming weeks."

I figure'd it would.

[SwiderMan]

Sony really seems to be pushing both the Move and its Sharp Shooter attachment. I'm still partial to the analog sticks. Is anyone a diehard PS Move user when it comes to FPS games?

[ksense]

i am getting the socom bundle with move and sharpshooter for a good deal so this is good news!!

[eggbert]

I've tried the Socom 4 BETA with Move, and it works better for me than the dualshock IMO. You can make the aiming reticule move VERY fast, faster than a dualshock's movement goes.

Only downside is the turn speed's max setting is still fairly slow, so it's kind of weird since you gotta adjust to being able to aim very fast, but turning at normal speed.

On Killzone 3 I preferred the Dualshock over the Move for a couple of reasons. First they made the melee movement way to exaggerated. You need to stab forward pretty far before KZ3 recognizes you are trying to melee. If you miss, your reticule will be all over the place from the stabbing motion, and you often lose sight of the person. The Socom 4 motion is much smaller, but not small enough that I ever accidentally melee'd.

I did like KZ3's faster turn speeds though.

[specialguest]

If the PS Move could be properly implemented into a FPS like how KZ3 did, then I would almost always use the PS Move over the DS3. As for the Sharpshooter, I would only use it for single player campaign mode.

[Bathyj]

Dude, I dont ever want to play a FPS without the Sharpshooter again.

Unfortunately I have to, I just got Homefront and Crysis 2 is on the way, but this is great news to me.

I keep telling people, playing a FPS with a SS is the equivalent of playing GT5 with a good wheel. You can use a DS3, but why would you want to? The wheel is so much better, and the DS3 simply doesn't offer the same level of control or immersion.

To be honest I'd rather Sharp Shooter support over mouse support. To me, it makes the game that much better.

Games need a calibration button though.

[Rainstorm81]

4 player co-op with the sharpshooter will bee quite a experience, but i agree specialguest Sp or co-op onnly for me id have to master the PSmove + sharpshooter to dare get online with it.

Off topic:
Sony's motion control isnt the hottest selling item but it does arguably have some of the best games for it, out of it motion competition.

[Miths]

I finally started playing Killzone 3 multiplayer a few days ago, and I'm just so much better and more confident with Move + Nav Controller (just holding one in each hand without any fancy plastic attachments) than I've ever been with a gamepad in shooters.

Granted, that's still far from great :p, but my aim is much more accurate and quicker with Move (lining up shoots quickly with the analogue sticks on a gamepad has just never come easily to me) - and I don't even feel my turning speed and turn stopping precision is a compromised compared to a DS3 as I had expected it would be.

The gesture based melee has been a problem for me though - it's too slow - but I believe they are adding that as a button option in the next patch.

Overall I'm having a hard time imagining every wanting to play a PS3 FPS again without Move controls.
Hell, I'm currently trying to play Crysis 2 on PC, and despite spending 6-8+ hours a day in front of a PC, my aim with mouse and keyboard stinks compared to Move + Nav Controller :).

[Pillage05]

I wouldn't consider myself a diehard ps move user with shooters, but I will say this. In a time where the shooter market is just FLOODED with title after title. Playing KZ3 single player with the move was a great break from the norm and felt really different to me.

It's not here to change the game, but it is quite a bit of fun and just something different ya know. I still play mp with my ds3 though.

[badz149]

nice to hear Insomniac is catering to MOVE as well! FPS with MOVE is pure awesomeness! if you still are unconvinced, you haven't played enough! 1-2 hours of KZ3 and you'll know I'm not lying!

edit: @article picture

Ted, that thing you're wearing is not for 3DTV! come on...hahaha..

[malamdra]

awesome

I was planning on buying a 3DTV for Uncharted 3 but now I might buy it two months earlier because of this

[HolyOrangeCows]

Move support. Awesome!

[Silly Mammo]

I'm immediately interested in this title where I didn't give two shakes a minute ago. I love using the Move for FPS's. It's on my list of must-buy titles.

KZ3 is fantastic with the Move and Nav controller.

[pain777pas]

Wow! You guys sold me on the nav controller which will be coming home with me tomorrow. LOL! Judging by the amount of agrees I think that I have to do this.

[CountDracula]

I bet it will sell less than Homefront. Or a million or so life time sales.

@Bathyj
"I bet no one cares what you think."

Likewise, haha rofl!

[Bathyj]

I bet no one cares what you think.

[solidjun5]

I bet you're going to use your alternate account.

[ELite_Ghost]

lol really 1 million?

is ur IQ like 1/1million by anychance?

[badz149]

just let him plays with the sales game! what else he can do when there's no exclusive to brag about? always remember; don't feed the TROLL!

[Solid_Snake-]

agreed countdracula.

and have you realised if you talk bad about ps3 in here you end up with 1 bubble.

pathetic fucking fanboys in here.

its funny how the two people who dare to talk out against sony in this article have 1 bubble each or is that just coincidence. lol

[mendicant]

@badz149,

How many of those exclusives are in the top 10 best selling PS3 games? How many of those exclusives have contributed to Sony keeping it's top spot and mind share?

I love my exclusives just as much as the next guy but the importance of them is way overblown. As gamers, yes we want to see them. As corporations trying to make money, it's not worth it and that's reflected in software sells. Sony has a butt load of exclusives that hasn't helped them at all.

[tigertron]

@ Xbox-threesixty.

I can't say I'm surprised why you have 1 bubble. The fact that you're trolling right now and have a suspect username.

[solidjun5]

Like I said...alternate account.

[badz149]

you said "as gamers", but what you really care about are their sales? that really doesn't add up very well!

try this for instance, as a gamer, which 1 would you prefer; between 2-3 exclusives a year that is selling millions each vs MANY exclusives from different genres but probably won't be selling over 3mil each? I'm not an investor, not even a game store manager to worry about how many these games are selling! as a GAMER, I'm just happy I have MANY games that I can choose!

xfanboys can bash any PS3 exclusives all they want but in the end, PS3 owners have more games to choose from then them!

[Queefy_B]

Move support is a great addition, i love the sharpshooter.

[ReservoirDog316]

Well, there's finally a reason for me to go out and buy a Move now. Been wanting it but I didn't plan on getting any games for it till now.

So, yay.

And boo 3D.

[TheLastGuardian]

Awesome, I knew this game was perfect for Move. Now I just need a 3DTV.

Thank you Insomniac for being such fantastic developers. Thank you Sony Computer Entertainment for having such amazing devs work exclusively on the best console ever. The PS3 baby! It's a damn shame that Insomniac is going multiplatform.

Killzone 3 and the Socom 4 beta work great with the Move. I can’t wait to try it out in R3. Resistance 3 comes out on my birthday so I know I’m getting it day 1.

[blusoops]

Day one! Now i hope BF3 will support move too!

[SwiderMan]

September 6, 2011...hopefully.

[TheLastGuardian]

That's my B-day so it's garunteed if it meets that release date, I will be getting it day 1. I can't wait. I loved Resistance: FOM R:Retribution and R2.

I was already super hyped for Resistance 3 and now I'm even more excited to play with the Dualshock and/or Move/navigation combo. It's gonna be even more sick than the Killzone 3 campaign with Move.

[Burning_Finger]

SONY loves spoiling their customers..

[SixShotCop]

I was just about to comment, then i noticed your bubble count. Makes sense.

[Megaton]

Yeah, I'm sure the community was clamoring for Move and 3D support.

[MsmackyM]

I was

[dragon82]

Me too.

[cochise313]

So was I.

[Undeadwolfy]

I definitley was...

[Patrick]

Yeah, I was too. The Sharpshooter is awesome and the immersion of the 3D with that is a totally different experience. I cant wait for Resistance in 3D.

[ultimate-remag]

alright... gigagigagedee....

[Visari]

Thanks to community demand? I call shenanigans. The community wouldn't request motion gaming & 3D when there are lots of other complaints that the community had when it came to Resistance 2.

[Bathyj]

Well, I'm requesting it.

I bought a Move, I bought a Nav, and I bought a Sharpshooter. I'm requesting ALL FPS and 3rdPS's support it.

[dragon82]

Same here.

[TheLastGuardian]

Same here except I don't have the sharpshooter yet. If only Uncharted 3 and inFAMOUS 2 supported Move. They would be the greatest motion controller compatible games ever.

[Patrick]

Yeah, I have the Move, sharpshooter, Killzone 3 and a 65" 3D tv... and I for one love every minute.

[LordMarius]

Nobody is going to play it anyways so whats the point

[Chapulin]

I feel sry for you. Just play don't hate.

[Bathyj]

Yes, YES, YEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS !!

[GoldPS3]

How did it feel to have your 1st orgasm? XD

[Bathyj]

I cant remember. It was in the early 80's.

I think I liked it.

[Oldman100]

YES! The more shooters that support move the better!

[PS3ROCKS]

Resistance 3D is going to be awesome.

[telekineticmantis]

I think they meant strong SONY demand

[nightmarex121]

Cool stuff, cant wait for resistance 3, resistance is one of my favorite shooters.

[Megaton]

If they were really listening to their community they would have kept the weapon wheel for R2 and carried over R2's co-op into R3.

[BlackTar187]

R2 coop was alot of fun. Is it really not in R3? If not that makes me sad.

[Megaton]

Everything I've read in the previews leads me to believe they've axed it. It was the best part of R2. By miles.

[Greentea]

Haha awesome going to buy it sept 22nd my birthday :) lol my age will be 22 years old. Hope no stupid ironic thing happens like a piano falling on my head. I would buy CE edition.

[StarScream4Ever]

Community response FTW!

[Unknown_SNAKE]

(Resistance 3 Will Support 3D, PlayStation Move Sharp Shooter)

even if it is not ...... still day one for me :)

[earbus]

Pew pew.

[badz149]

Kinect is not supported...(-_-;)

[Killzone3___]

kinect sucks , ps move is amazing and all admit that even MS fanboys admit that to me , kinect is lame , it doesn't have alots of games and all the games they released are boring not for hardcores , using your finger as a gun is.... i don't need to continue , i guess you understand what i say

if i have kinect i would play it in a basement ...

[yakuzakazuya]

Thank you Insomniac, the move support is what I am most excited about. Can't wait to play your next masterpiece.

[DigitalRaptor]

This pleases me.

Sony weren't kidding when they said they were serious about Move and 3D. More choice is better than none ;)

[jneul]

i guess ill be geeting resistance 3 afte5rall love the move with fps titles

[Sizzon]

Awesome :)

[Lindsey]

The more I hear about this game the more I want to get it day one.

[ian72]

I would like more games to use Gun-Con3, which came with Time Crisis 4. The new Time Crisis uses MOVE and Gun-con3, and it works very well. I would like to be able to try out the gun-con3 on Killzone, Socom and other MOVE games. I'm sure it wouldn't take much programming to do.
I know this will never happen as there aren't enough people with the Gun-con3 to make programmers need to include it.
I like the Gun-con3, it works just the same as a sixaxis/dualshock pad, with both joysticks, but you can aim anywhere on the screen. It works in a very similar way to MOVE really.

[SixShotCop]

This game looks much better then Killzone 3. Hopefully it is!

[NeloAnjelo]

Thank you Insomniac.

[Killzone3___]

i just hope that sony didn't force them to put this option , if they really want to put it then it will be good because they have idea for it but when they force them they will make it sucks...

[XeNoStRatoS]

ÜBERnice! Too bad I don't like this particular IP. But it's good news to read that and there are some more titles coming where I really like this support a lot (like inFamous 2).

[gypsygib]

Excellent news. Move is the best way to control FPS games on consoles

[Wh15ky]

Great news.

I really hope we hear the same soon about Battlefield 3.

[sickbird]

Im a big fan of the Move with FPS's, not a huge fan of the sharpshooter though. The Move by itself is much more comfortable and accurate.

[Masterchef2007]

Nice to see that another game gets support for move. My contoller is collecting dust and i cant wait to use it in core titles like these.

[zero_cool]

This why move & 3D supported in all fps & rts is a must & to the haters trying to rain on our parade i direct them to this video below...

Check out my comment 313 days ago. I called it soo right!!

[Milfhunter91]

motion controls will never be the future in gaming nor a necessity...the kinect is something i can call unique & fun... the move on the other hand is....well im not the type of guy that will swing a glowy dildon around unless its getting inserted in a chick.
