Big speculation is that tomorrow's "surprise Sony Sequel" is Resistance 3, but if it is - a) Insomniac's community manager is not saying and b) even if it were, the studio is also working on a second game. More »

Resistance 2, Insomniac Games' follow-up to PlayStation 3 launch title Resistance: Fall of Man, reviewed better than the original sci-fi first person shooter. So why is Insomniac so bummed about reception to that game? More »

You may as well settle in. Just like Rock Band and Guitar Hero, it looks like LittleBigPlanet will be bringing us enough DLC to justify multiple posts a week on the subject. Today's comes courtesy of Sony Japan, who - bless them - love to announce their DLC ahead of time. Next week, two new LBP costumes will be made available in Japan; a turkey head, and a Resistance 2 outfit. Given the timing, we'll assume that the turkey head is to symbolise thanksgiving, and given the particularly American nature of that holiday, we'll assume it'll be available in the US next week too. Can't see why it wouldn't bring the Chimera head along with it. More »

Gamasutra's Christian Nutt sat down with Insomniac CEO Ted Price at their recent community event; the discussion centered heavily on Resistance 2 and the Insomniac development process. Price has a lot to say about how Insomniac deals with requests and suggestions from the user base, both on their own community as well as elsewhere (and gives us a ringing endorsement with "Well, sure, Kotaku is a good source."). A particular challenge was and is getting a handle on how best to design for online modes, since it's a bit of a 'black hole' for developers: More »

When the PlayStation 3 began shipping back in November of 2006, there was really only one must-have game for the console, and that was Insomniac's ambitious first-person shooter, Resistance: Fall of Man. The best title at launch remains one of the best games on the console to date. Only one game due out this holiday season has a hope of stealing the sci-fi FPS crown on the console, and that's it's sequel, Resistance 2. It's bigger, badder, and even more ambitious than the original, but bigger isn't always better, and we've seen some pretty terrible things done in the name of ambition. Let's see how R2 fared under the telescopic sights of game critics around the world. More »

Insomniac's follow-up to the hands-down best launch title for the PlayStation 3 is in stores today, and in celebration we've been flooded with screenshots from Resistance 2. I'm heading out to pick up a copy later on in the afternoon, and the shots just make the wait even more painful. It's certainly a hell of a lot more colorful than the original, which was the poster child for the whole "Real is Brown" phenomenon that plagued the early lives of the current gen systems. Maybe I can convince Crecente I am sick so I can skip out early. Perhaps I shouldn't post said plan on the site he is the Managing Editor of. Damn. More »

* And by complete, we mean complete complete. Sony says — and you may already have heard this figure tossed around — that there's some 420 hours worth of play time in Resistance 2 required to unlock everything. Thankfully, for at least my own review purposes, the single player campaign should take you about 9 to 11 hours to burn through. That's totally reasonable. But if you plan on dedicating the time to do everything, unlock every level, find every briefing, max out every class, you've got about 18 days of your life ahead of you just playing R2. And if you do, you're a more dedicated man than me. More »

Resistance 2? Gears of War 2? Far Cry 2? The best shooter this holiday is Call of Duty: World at War — so say the folks who made it. “There’s a lot of competition this year," says Activision producer Noah Heller, "but I feel very strongly we have the best shooter this Christmas... I’m looking forward to Gears of War, Far Cry and Resistance 2, and I’m sure they will be great games, but I am confident the consumer will come back to Call of Duty.” Well, what do you expect him to say, that they've made the fourth best shooter this Christmas. Be sure to buy the new CoD, it's not as good as the two other big shooters! Fat chance. More »

First LittleBigPlanet, and now this.

Right now you can hit up the link below, register to comment, and tell the nice USA Today people in 50 words or less why you deserve to be in the beta, and you could be one of 400 lucky winners of what amounts to early access to the game.

It's that time again! The time of the year for the big games to hit the shelves, and for the big mags and websites to fall over themselves handing out 9s and 10s in response. Gears of War 2 and Resistance 2 are two (2?) of the first to turn up, and whaddya know, the reviews are both from the official mags of the respective consoles. The UK's Official Xbox Magazine has given Gears 2 9/10, while Britain's Official PlayStation Magazine has given Resistance 2 a 9/10. Which is a shame! As someone who tracks review scores as a sport in of itself, rather than a purchasing guide, I was hoping to see one of them have a little more fun with it, hand out a 10 or an 8, just for shits and giggles. Ah well. Guess we'll have to wait for the non-exclusive reviews to trickle in for those. [via VG247] More »

Whether its our wildfires, our breast implants or our hovering clouds of carcinogenic smog, we like things to be huge in Los Angeles. Take our ads, for example. G4 snapped a handful of shots of the new Resistance 2 ads currently draped over a Wilshire Boulevard office building, terrorizing those sitting in traffic — always with the traffic! — with a giant Chimeran Leviathan. Scary! Hopefully the boys and girls at Insomniac have had a chance to drive down from lovely Burbank to peep it. More »

Sony are kicking off the Resistance 2 multiplayer beta. Should be a hoot. But how do you get in? Ignoring the folks who preordred the game from GameStop or, worse, are Qore subscribers, it's eeeeasy. For Americans, all you need to do is visit this site (might not be up just yet, if it's not, try a little later), and Sony will take it from there (you should get your confirmation codes sometime next week). For Europeans, same story, with further details to come next week. Oh, and just to remind you how close you are to playing the real thing, Sony also announced that the game's gone gold, so should be making its November 4 release date just fine. More »
