Resistance 3 Box Art Revealed

"Today we’re proud to reveal the Resistance 3 box art that you can hold in your hands when the game hits store shelves in September. You should recognize right away that this graphic version of the Chimeran Skull with the New York skyline depicted as its teeth, as well as the stylized version of the Resistance franchise logo, isn’t your typical “rendered hero” box art. To create this new look, we partnered with Olly Moss, a talented British artist, to create a bold vision of the Resistance 3 boxart for both the North American and European territories."

I still preferred the original Resistance box art but thats just me

guitarded774786d ago

I prefer Fall of Man too, but I don't care what the box art looks like as long as the game is good.

gaffyh4786d ago

I really like this box art, simple is good.

malamdra4786d ago

that's the european box art, the american might be different

Lifendz4786d ago

Is this just the EU boxart or will the North American version look the same? It's different all right. Not sure how I feel about it.

TotalPS3Fanboy4786d ago

"This is John Conner,
and you are the Resistance."

WhittO4786d ago

I like it!

It's simple but has interesting stuff to look at and gets the point across.

Would look good across store shelves compared to other 'jam-packed' bloated art works.

Active Reload4786d ago

I like it, but I wouldn't call it utterly brilliant, lol.

pangitkqb4786d ago

I love it. It's simple and bold.

HolyOrangeCows4786d ago

Reminds me of boxart of the Venture Brothers season DVDs.

MintBerryCrunch4784d ago

im surprised that everyone is overlooking the fact that the game will utilize the Move

The box art is simple...

Too simple in fact.

But it's still good in my opinion, I like it.

But the alternate version which shows Capelli walking towards the NYC skyline, is awesome.

Much suited for a poster size.

HammockGames4786d ago (Edited 4786d ago )

I wasn't initially all that impressed. Not until I took a closer look at what image framed the teeth.

I don't usually pay much attention to box art, but that is fairly cool.

Jamegohanssj54786d ago

What the hell is this shit? Well oh well it just better be good as the first one. And the final boss better be N-2(Nathan the Terminator lol). Actually that final logo should be the US box art. I don't really dig that Orange. It's too close to that abomination The Orange Box.

Beautiful silk screen artistic approach. They have gone bold with this design which is a great sign of what they are thinking for this franchise. I absolutely love this cover.

callahan094786d ago

I could not agree more with Cajun Chicken. Shocked that almost half the people disagree with him. This is a fantastic cover design. It's so unique. It resembles something more like what you'd see as a book cover than a videogame cover. I just wish they didn't have to plaster a bunch of other symbols all over. The art itself is breathtaking.

SIX4786d ago

I follow this artist and his work is brilliant. His designs are always very clever and bold. The art with capelli walking towards the city is especially amazing. Hit the link for a poster size version.

The Worst box art ever?

Well Yes!!!

Crazyglues4785d ago (Edited 4785d ago )

Wow.. that's Lame, I'm sorry but it is..

Fans would do a hell of a lot better then that... That cover just makes me think the game is going to be Lame..

I'm sorry, but I don't see nothing amazing about that cover-art..

This would have been much better IMO- http://www.gamesetwatch.com...

Nitrowolf24786d ago (Edited 4786d ago )

i like it. Though i'm not to fond of the orange and such.
IMO one box cover has the best cover
http://upload.wikimedia.org...

this one is still better then the second box cover

Sharingan_no_Kakashi4786d ago (Edited 4786d ago )

Yup

Still this one's pretty good. As long as they use the one with Capelli in it.

BushLitter4786d ago

Also don't like the orange, but the concept is brilliant. Maybe if they used blood-red? Or whatever colour Chimeran blood is.

I loved the second one

Nitrowolf24786d ago

i'm hoping they go for the second one and add some color to it. I think that would look really awesome

Kee4786d ago

Bit of a departure from what we're used to but I don't buy it for the box lol.

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.

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.

Eidolon783d ago

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

Miraak82 783d 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.

fr0sty783d ago

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

P_Bomb784d 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!

darthv721139d 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.

monkey6021139d 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

darthv721139d ago

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

SullysCigar1140d ago

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

monkey6021139d ago

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

CBaoth1139d 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_cheese1139d ago

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

BlackIceJoe1140d 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.

Dragonopolis1139d 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

waverider1139d 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.

Jambola121139d ago

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

Chevalier1139d 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.
