Resistance Retribution To Raise The Bar For PSP Titles

By now, most people who either own a PSP, or are fans of the Resistance franchise know about the existance of Resistance Retribution. If they don't, then they're seriously missing out as Retribution is looking like one of the biggest PSP titles of 2009, if only because of the new innovations that the game brings to the format.

I'm sure it will, it looks great, if only I had a PSP =\ .I'm spending all I have on my PS3 games, I'm just an average high school Junior so I don't make a fortune. but yea, I'm not disappointed so it's fine.

mephman5593d ago

I have really high hopes for this game, I just hope that it can deliver.

SullyDrake5593d ago

Considering how high the bar is already from God Of War: Chains Of Olympus and Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core.

But I believe that if any game can do it, that game is Resistance: Retribution.

ShawnCollier5593d ago

Not that much of a fan of FPS, but getting a good control scheme on a PSP FPS might get other devs to follow suit.

Kinda like how The Conduit might get devs to do better controls on Wii FPS's.

There needs to be an article to teach the consumer what the following categories mean:

First Person Shooter --> FPS
Third Person Shooter --> TPS
Massively Multiplayer Online First Person Shooter --> MMOFPS
Tactical First/Third Person Shooter --> TFPS
Role Playing Game (Mainly Western Style) --> RPG
Japanese Style Role Playing Game --> JRPG
Strategy Role Playing Game --> SRPG
Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game --> MMORPG
Game with Role Playing Elements --> RPG/
Action Based Role Playing Game --> ARPG

Bubble Buddy5593d ago

FarEast nice list: Bubble+ for the people that don't know what he different genres are.

Chris_GTR15593d ago

shure it does. if there were any psp games. psp is pretty much a dead console now because of piracy.

mephman5593d ago (Edited 5593d ago )

Its sales don't really agree with that statement.

Chris_GTR15593d ago

its selling alot so sony dosent care. but publishers do so their not making games. i fail to see your point.

did you know they just cracked the new psps , dark alex has done it again.

Sarcasm5593d ago

It's selling hardware because of piracy, but nobody is buying software cause of the piracy. It's an insane circle of doom for the PSP.

Torch5593d ago (Edited 5593d ago )

My God, you're like a bad case of friggin' herpes!...no matter how hard I try, I just can't seem to get rid of you.

I just bolted from another PS3-related thread in hope of escaping the horrid stench of your bad attempt at trolling...only to find you here again.

Jesus Christ, you're like that annoying grade four kid who keeps teasing and giving his pretty little classmate a hard time, where in reality all the adult bystanders know that he's got a killer crush on her.

Just swallow that infantile pride already, and spare us all the never-ending uncreative monotony and repetition of PS3-bashing and buy one already.

We ALL know you really want to.

But you're NOT getting on my Friends list.

..and another thing: Didn't you have a Dr. Phil avatar at some point??? Please change it back to that as it suits you much more accurately.

(Ah, that Dr. Phil; what an annoying f*ck of a windbag.)

someone explain to me how you would connect the ps3 controller to the psp? The usb cable provided means you can only attach the smaller end of the cable but what about the large end? That connects to neither the psp or dualshock controller

Amplitude5593d ago (Edited 5593d ago )

You connect your psp to the PS3, and the Dualshock to the PS3, and voila. :D Just go to some menu on Resistance 2 and thats it.

Resistance: Retribution rated for PS5, PS4 in Korea

The Game Rating and Administration Committee of Korea has rated Resistance: Retribution for PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4, suggesting the PSP title will join the PlayStation Plus Classics Catalog.

darthv72716d ago (Edited 716d ago )

This will def be easier to play on tv than originally designed. I remenber hooking psp to ps3 to use a ds3. Cumbersome but it worked. Its a good spin off.

MrBaskerville716d ago (Edited 716d ago )

Hope we will get Valkyria Chronicles 2-3 and Carnage Heart at some point. There's a bunch of psp games I never got a chance to play.

monkey602715d ago

Good shout! There's few PSP games I'd care to have on current gen consoles but Valkyria Chronicles is definitely one of them

Aggesan715d ago

VC3 doesn't have an official version in english though. There's a great fan-translation though.

Nineball2112715d ago

*shouting* THEY SAID THE GAME RATING..... oh, nvm.

Hauntedasylum8716d ago

I didn’t know this title existed, so when I saw the headline, I thought a new Resistance was being made. Man I miss that series!

cluclap716d ago

That's because it's the worst in the series. It was good for a psp title though.

darthv72715d ago

Burning skies takes that distinction (worst). This is better than that.

Profchaos715d ago (Edited 715d ago )

It was actually a great game probably above the original they gave the character a personality for one.

Maybe your thinking of burning skies

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!

darthv721095d 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.

monkey6021095d 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

darthv721095d ago

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

SullysCigar1096d ago

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

monkey6021095d ago

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

CBaoth1095d 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_Darkness1095d 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_cheese1095d ago

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

BlackIceJoe1096d 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.

Dragonopolis1095d 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

waverider1095d 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.

Jambola121095d ago

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

Chevalier1095d 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.
