Ted Price is the President and CEO of Insomniac games. MyGEN recently arranged a special Interview with him while he was visiting in Australia. Ted is here as a guest for the Media Launch of the Playstation 3, and a special guest with Sony at the IEAA Awards last Friday night.
Ted was a great guy to talk with and MyGEN had a great time asking him some questions about the Playstation 3, HD-DVD and Blue Ray and how he thinks he will be able to keep expanding the boundaries of the Playstation 3 development. There are some interesting questions about the multiplayer for Resistance as well as well as talk of the next Resistance. Just download it now to hear it all.
The Audio Interview is in the downloads section on MyGEN. You will need to be logged in to download it.
** Sorry but bandwidth can be high sometimes and MyGEN want people to be members to download in return. Feel free to host it else where as long as the Interview is sourced.
The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.
Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!
The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer
Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱
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.
I only played the 3 main Resistance titles. My ranking would be;
1. Resistance 3
2. Resistance: Fall of Man
3. Resistance 2
Man I loved 3's campaign. Another gem stuck on the ps3 and who knows if insomniac will go back to the franchise.
Days Gone director & former Bend Studio dev Jeff Ross says he pitched an open-world Resistance game to Sony; he wasn't interested in a Syphon Filter reboot.
Sony rejected an open world Resistance? Come ON guys. Stop with these timed deals for Deathloop etc and let’s go!
This plus the fact Days Gone hit 9 million has me scratching my head this week. Why so cynical?
As far as Syphon Filter goes, it's a shame that after two generations of leaks and rumors the game was never actually in development. MGS is dead, Splinter Cell might as well be dead from what we've heard. Sony's had a massive opportunity to come in and take over a dormant genre, and they're just dragging their feet. So many opportunities to bring franchises back and they just don't.
I really wish we got more grounded action-crime or action-espionage games, not everything has to be over the top action RPGs and have sci-fi/superhero/fantasy elements.
Especially after seeing that jawdropping Matrix showcase... we can really rival some great action films if done right :O
Shame about Siphon Filter as I believe there is a market for it.
Also, there are some rumors that Sony is working on a new game that mix both Splinter Cell and MGS features.
Let's hope it is true.
This game is decent.. not nearly as good as Halo 2 but a sequel has potential imo. The hardest difficulty was actually really easy and the multiplayer is ruined by aim assist (I can't miss.. and I'm not even used to a ps2/ps3 controller).. FFA is kind of lame if you ask me considering it's just who can steal the most kills as everyone dies and spawns in a matter of seconds (right next to each other)
One thing I forgot to mention also was off air Ted talked about a few other things. One thing was that he really kept an eye on http://www.myresistance.net... it's their own community site. They take the feedback there very seriously so if you want to voice any feedback make sure to check it out.
P.S. guys if anyone wants to host the file they can just add an alternate source. Damm prices for everything down under is expensive - that includes hosting.

It´s nice to read an honest post. I mean it´s very nice to see that you´re not gonna try and make any comparison to Halo 2 because you did´nt play it. It´s very seldom you come across posts with that kind of honesty because threads are mostly flooded with mindless fanboyism. Kudos from a not so mindless Xbox 360 fanboy :)
If you have a PS3 this game is a must for the collection.
Totally Awesome. Almost as wished for as KZII for me, personally.
