Resistance Retribution Sales Promising, For The PSP

Released over three weeks ago to rave reviews from critics, Resistance Retribution was praised for being a perfect example of how a Playstation Portable game should be approached by developers. Sales haven't necessarily been through the roof, but it has been selling reasonably well for a PSP game.

You know, I think I need to give this game some more playtime, before I judge it too harshly.

mephman5494d ago

Yea, I definitely think the game gets better the more time you spend with it.

gaffyh5494d ago

Yeah it's a very very good game, one of the best games available on PSP

Blaze9295494d ago

Yeah online is actually a ball and it used your PSN account to sign on. I havent even started the story yet!

RememberThe3575494d ago

And fairly long as well. It defiantly deserves to sell well.

Ju5494d ago (Edited 5494d ago )

Its damn hard at time, IMO. Sometimes I think the campaign is what R2 should have been. I like this way more, using R:FoM style (and narrative) and it connects so well to the first part.

*Ok, no one freak out*

I'm starting to think that Sony Bend is a better developer then Insomniac. What they have been able to get out of the PSP is truly remarkable. With Syphon Filter and now Retribution, they have yet to let me down.They seriously need to do something for the PS3.

mephman5494d ago

Yea, I think the story was much more engaging than Resistance 2's, and I hope in Resistance 3 they revert back to the original way.

I'd say Grand Theft Auto Chinatown Wars is better, but not by much.

Gitaroo5494d ago

the game is 10 times better when I play it with the dual shock 3. I think this game need a little of balancing because some of the weapons seems to be way too weak. The game is definitely a triple A PSP title..... atleast for me with ds3.

colossi165494d ago

I would have got this game, but I sold my psp to a friend that needed it for cheap. Thinking about buying it again, but I kinda want to see what games the DS has.

fishd5494d ago

Man, Bend studio should start working on PS3 games,they know what they are doing!

Syphon Filter baby!

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.

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.

MrBaskerville702d ago (Edited 702d 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.

monkey602702d 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

Aggesan702d ago

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

Nineball2112701d ago

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

Hauntedasylum8702d 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!

cluclap702d ago

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

darthv72702d ago

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

Profchaos701d ago (Edited 701d 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!

darthv721082d 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.

monkey6021082d 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

darthv721081d ago

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

SullysCigar1083d ago

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

monkey6021082d ago

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

CBaoth1082d 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_Darkness1081d 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_cheese1081d ago

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

BlackIceJoe1082d 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.

Dragonopolis1081d 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

waverider1082d 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.

Jambola121082d ago

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

Chevalier1082d 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.
