Resistance 2 Bringing 44 Magnum Bombs

Just out of of a Resistance 2 session with Insomniac boss Ted Price. Showed the game's intro, which picks up where Resistance 1 left off. The sequel features new lighting and new motion capture along with more detailed textures. The game kicks off in Iceland and then by the second level takes players through the streets of San Francisco. Players are joined by three sentinels who help fight and tell the story since the voice over narration from Resistance 1 has been dropped. That should help players learn more about main character Nathan Hale.

"We've really upped the gore," says Price. It's possible to blow off arms, legs and heads.

Yes gears was the first game ever to have blow of limbs and have a cover system. It is actually the first game where you shoot people ;-)

It's also a known fact that Gears was the first to have the character strafe left/right, one-handed pistols, monsters coming up from the ground(and people think zombie's was the first to start that) and putting a doo rag a man's head.

Most of the stuff in the article is known, but, I hadn't read anything about upping the gore til seeing this. I hope they don't get too gorey, but, at the same time it needs to look realistic. I'm sure they'll get it right. Can't wait to pop someone's head off lol.

They are being tight lipped about a lot of stuff.

We don't need exaggerated violence, but it would be nice to get a little bloody here and there.

8 - ted price just made my day.
if you can make heads explode a la RE then this is a great thing. my only gripe in first one was if you shoot chimera in head with a shotgun at point blank range; why didn't their heads get blown off?
with all the close range fighting in the first game, the gore will only add to the intensity of the combat. i hope when enemy loses his head he keeps walking a couple steps before he drops!(or maybe that's too sadistic?)
with the new KZ trailers/gameplay showing a lot of "up close and personal combat", i hope they up the gore being shown as well.

I think he's talking about blowing sh!t up with that specific gun(44 Magnum), I hope it is with more than just one gun. But still good!!
On Multiplayer, everyone will be heading to get that gun first ;-)

They should allow different game modes, because I don't like picking up weapons. I prefer choosing it at the beginning of the match.

Unless this has already been confirmed and I just haven't read it.

guessing gore would fit in well, blowing up those chimeras to pieces. Resistance 2 did look a bit dull when you were firing a assault rifle that has nearly no recoil, at a chimera, and he just falls to the ground.

True, I think mabe they didn't have time to add it because of the PS3 launch. This one should be more polished, what they showed at E3 was far from done (graphic wise)
