I would really like to play on a demopod real soon.

As you know I am hard on PS3, but for me that's normal because it didn't really deliver anything good besides the Killzone CGI.

This game though is shaping up really good. I am curious how it will hold compared to COD3 and Gears of War this Christmas.

Bring it on and I'll vote cool on this one

Ravenator5296448d ago

This is shaping up to be a great game for the PS3. But as for competing with GOW and COD3 this holiday season, I would say Resistance would be bringing up the rear.

Why?, because there will be more 360 owners than PS3 owners. And you listed the two most wanted games for most 360 owners. Especially GOW. I don't know anyone who doesn't have a pre-order for this game.

Now before you flame me, I said nothing about which game is better. Its all about how many PS3 consoles will be released and how many people already own or will be purchasing a 360.

Sevir046448d ago

but in quality it might out shine Cod3 and match GOW equally. alot of hype is being generated for this game, even MTV has had nothing but good to say about this game. personally i know that GOW and R:FOM will have me playing the most hours come this november. IGN 1up and Gamespot all praised the game and are even more thrilled because they said the game plays as if it was like a finished game with noo bugs, and yet insomniac said there are still few things that need to be ironed out . so when the polish is done this game will be amazing i even expect the visual appeal to go beyond what we are seeing now, to months can do a world of difference, compare the GDC2006 gameplay to the E32006, and then Compare the E32006 to what was shown recently, between now and E#2006 was a 4 month Time span, and between E306 and GDC2006 was a month and a have, and resistance mangaed to gain a fairly solid and successfull showing at E3, i played the early build and i like it it had plenty of bugs and the characters that didn't respond to where they were shot, and now i'm Gonna find out how much the game has been improved over these 4-5 months at this years TGS. I look forward to seeing this games, and Warhawk, i wanna see how much it's improved, and even Fatal Inertia, and Heavenly sword... lost of stuff, and i'll also see some Lost planet action from capcom which right now looks hotter than GOW, that game is also building soo much hype capcom wowed soo many people with DR, and it looks to kill everyone with Lost planet, MGS4 wow... anywho
TGS here i come

NextGen24Gamer6448d ago

Is this CG cut scenes? I don't see a hud, a weapon...anything to show its actually in game. Sony is good for this type of stuff. Then you get the game home and be like.."what in the world is this". "this ain't like the commercials I watched on tv with cgi cut scenes"..."this ain't the like the screen shots I witnessed prior to buying this game.". "then you all of a sudden realize. "well, when I look back the commercials and screen shots "DID NOT" have a heads up display nor a gun or health showing. I mean it is a FPS right? Wouldn't that be shown in a screen shot of gameplay? Don't bash. I'm asking a fair question. Do your own research on this. This is the only screen shot I have seen that actually has the heads up display and gun in hand. Sure its a month or so older. But where are the ingame screen shots? What are they attempting to do showing all these "obviously" not in game screen shots of this game. Show the real deal please.

http://media.ps3.ign.com/me...

If you don't believe me. Follow the link. This is the most recent "in game" screen shot. All the screen shots released after this one have absolutely NO HUD/GUN/Health bar/ ect....

Genki6448d ago

...to the direct left of the one you reference is from a build one month later with comparable graphics to the most recent screens just negates that point. By the way, the screen you referenced had no life bar either, so I still don't see your point. These recent screens look in game to me, and if you disagree, why not simply go to the videos section, watch the ones from the 14th of this month, and try and say those don't have graphics like those of the recent screens.

I've seen many a screen of Gears without a HUD, that look fantastic mind you, and I never questioned as to whether or not they were FMV. I think you're just too quick to criticize, why not just sit back and say hey, this game has good graphics. Not saying you have to praise the gameplay, because that's purely subjective and so is judgement of the graphics, but you obviously think the visuals are good, as you are saying they're pre-rendered, otherwise you would simply say they look terrible or not up to par, correct?

You know the graphics look good, you know it, so why make excuses as to why you think they shouldn't be. Sure, Sony has done it before, but then again, how many companies haven't?

Basically what I'm saying is, why be so quick to look into the negative?

NextGen24Gamer6448d ago

I can say the gameplay video does not live up to the recent batch of screen shots with No GUN displayed, No HUD, No anything. Yes, I am a bit skeptical. The gameplay video is a much better example of what the game will look like. And it looks decent but not great in the gameplay video. The graphics aren't as good as Prey, or Half life 2. But its decent. I just think the screen shots serve its purpose. It leads people to think that is how the game will look. When all you have to do is click the gameplay video and see its not like that at all. Why can't they show "ONE" in game screen shot with Gun/Hud displayed? Its not hard to do. Play the game. Take the snapshot. Editors do it all the time.

One thing is for sure. No one can say these are in game/gameplay screen shots. Because if they were you "WOULD" see the gun/hud.

Genki6448d ago

but did you even look at the picture I was referring to directly next to it? The graphics are comparable to what's in the latest screens, and besides, a direct feed video won't look as good as any screen, you know that, everybody knows that. Again, I'm not claiming them as FMV or in-game, but why be so skeptical? Being an XBox fan, did you question any screens of a particular Xbox title that had excellent graphics? Maybe or maybe not, but know this, no company is comprised of saints, especially in regards to advertising (i.e. published screens and videos)

Had the thought ever crossed your mind that they may be screens from a cutscene? You can't be so sure they're pre-rendered unless you weigh each alternative. All a cut-scene is, is a scripted event/scene using the in-game engine, of which there are several in many games. This could be the same scenario, but then again, you could be right, and people that say it's in-game could be right, who knows.

I think they could be cut-scenes, as they do look smoother than what's been seen in-game(most cut-scenes are). I don't think the graphics look like anything the PS3, or the 360 couldn't handle for that matter, and I think that you could agree on this one, especially when games on the 360 have graphics the caliber of Gears and Mass Effect. Simply put, if it's FMV, it's poor FMV by next gen standards.

drewdrakes6448d ago (Edited 6448d ago )

I dont think these are very recent. Theyre going on and on about how they have a lot of space, but i cant actually see pixelation and problems with textures. I.e. the bump maping on the alien's, dont know what their called, arm in one of the pictures (the blood vessel). And that alien boss' texture lookes blurry and low res. They must be old, or else they arent using the space wisely. The environments look great though, they need some improvement on the explosions, but the smoke looks great lol. If in that screaming picture, the alien had bigger blood vessels, that would be able to more give off the impression that he is really angry, ie prepared to rip my head off.

PlayStation 3 Games That Desperately Need a PS5 Remaster

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!!

Rude-ro68d ago

I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.

darthv7268d ago

Funny you mention that... my son wanted to play some PS3 games in 3d on my PS tv and he was blown away by how good KZ3 was. It really was a great addition to the game. Im surprised there have not been more 3d games from that era being ported to the PSVR/VR2.

_SilverHawk_68d ago

resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword

Cacabunga68d ago

Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2

Profchaos68d ago (Edited 68d ago )

Killzone trilogy in VR would be amazing bonus points if they offer shadow fall.

There was a psvr1 Killzone project that supermassive was working on at one stage which wasn't up to scratch and Sony brand it back in house I was hoping we would see that on psvr2 eventually.

Personally I'd love to see some more love or acknowledgement of psvr2 from Sony in general it was a expensive headset and Sony barely acknowledge it's existence

seanpitt2368d ago

The amount of work needed to remaster these games wouldn't be beneficial on a financial and business sense.. MGS4 would probably be the best bet as it would need the least amount of work!

Iceball200068d ago

YEAAASSSSS! I miss this franchise and wanna play it so bad again.

Father__Merrin68d ago

The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer

InUrFoxHole68d ago

The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.

Marcus Fenix68d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel198968d ago

That's what Bungie should make, Ill keep saying it until it happens

1Victor68d ago (Edited 68d ago )

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 😱

Resistance was the best co-op fps I ever played after L4D2

Ranking the Resistance Games From Worst To Best

While it's been on ice for as long as it was around, the Resistance franchise has no shortage of quality.

Knushwood Butt745d ago

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.

Eidolon743d ago

Resistance 1 MP will always be my favorite. Call it nostalgia or whatever, but that was my jam, felt more balance, natural.

Miraak82 743d ago

i have the platinium too , 10k kills in online ranked matches was no joke . Took me 3-4 months straight grinding but it was fun . To put it in perspective you only got like 25 kills per match if you were 1st place every match that's at Least 400 matches in 1st

Sciurus_vulgaris745d ago

I only played the 3 main Resistance titles. My ranking would be;
1. Resistance 3
2. Resistance: Fall of Man
3. Resistance 2

GoodGuy09745d ago

Man I loved 3's campaign. Another gem stuck on the ps3 and who knows if insomniac will go back to the franchise.

fr0sty744d ago

Resistance, Warhawk, MAG, Motorstorm, there's so many first party gems on PS3 that Sony has just left to die...

P_Bomb744d ago

Never played Burning Skies but I still have Retribution.

monkey602744d ago

Burning Skies was about 3 hours long and rather inconsequential. You haven't missed anything

porkChop744d ago

Honestly, Burning Skies was shit. There's no two ways about it. At first I thought it looked terrible, then I second guessed myself. Big mistake.

darthv72743d ago

Retribution has this really cool feature where you could use a PS3 to link a controller to it and play. So if you had a 2000 or 3000 hooked to a tv, you can use a real controller. All of this predates the PSP Go's ability to sync a sixaxis to it via bluetooth.

Yui_Suzumiya744d ago

Resistance 3 was shocking and brilliant. Loved it.

Days Gone Director Pitched Open World Resistance; Wasn't Interested in Syphon Filter Reboot

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.

P_Bomb860d ago (Edited 860d ago )

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?

porkChop860d ago

Resistance doesn't need to be open world though. Just because it can technically work doesn't mean it's a good direction for the franchise.

P_Bomb859d ago (Edited 859d ago )

No I know, but seeing as the franchise has no current direction, I’m in the camp of anything’s better than nothing. Could always just dip a toe in like GOW, TLOU2.

excaliburps859d ago

Well, yeah, but any new Resistance is good! LOL! XD

EvertonFC859d ago

Agree tbh it sounded straight off the bat what halo infinite turned into but just a resistance version of it.

Army_of_Darkness859d ago

An open world resistance based on resistance 3 would be awesome ballz!

CanadianTurtle859d ago

As a huge fan of the series, an open-world Resistance would not be a bad idea. Especially if it had Day's Gone's gameplay engine. Replace the motorcycle with a military hummer or a chimeran vehicle. I think it could work very well.

The problem with continuing Resistance as a linear FPS game is that the market doesn't respond to those games anymore. I think the games industry is tired of 8 hour (linear-shooter) campaigns. That was acceptable in the PS3/360 days but now I think the industry wants more. IF a new Resistance game were to come out and it followed the gameplay structure of the original trilogy, it would be regarded as "just another FPS." But if it got the Days Gone treatment, it can attract a larger fanbase.

Rhythmattic859d ago (Edited 859d ago )

Porkchop
Maybe they're not considering the halo effect ?
Mwhahahahahaha

Mr_cheese858d ago

I'd try any new resistance experience but if I'm being truly honest, my first instinct is that it would not touch the heights of the original trilogy and should continue to be a story driven linear campaign. Especially with the technology afforded in this gen, even linear can have a very open feel to it.

sparky77859d ago

That 9ml was an estimate, he confirmed he doesn't have executive level sales figures so he just guessed. I would assume it was much lower than that with the majority coming from PS+ and discounts.

If Sony brought Housemarquee after Returnal didn't sell 9ml, it's obvious sales aren't all Sony cares about.

jukins859d ago (Edited 859d ago )

Thats what im thinking. Ntm the game was on sale relatively faster than most sony 1st party games. Released buggy horrible framerate that took months to "fix" and it took about 10chours of slow paced gameplay till you got to a point where you got enough mods tools and guns for it to be enjoyable.

I find it weird that all the sudden ppl are praising the game asking for a sequel just because a former director said it sold x amount. Given the 6 year cycle, bad launch, 50/50 reception and to leads who were supposedly not a good fit leaving/ getting fired shows why sony probably didnt greenlight a sequel

EvertonFC859d ago

He didnt guess ffs, he used data from a trophies website with there own internal data which matched up.

Ausbo859d ago

That’s different though. The ps5 was in its infancy when returnal released. Different sales targets

MrBeatdown859d ago

If they were pitching some kind of third person, open world Resistance with destructible environments similar to Red Faction Guerrilla where you can take down Chimera towers and giant robots, sure. But I don't want Far Cry with aliens, which is all I see this being.

I'm fine without another Days Gone too. I have yet to play much of it, but it seems like a great game with a tired setting. I'm not dying for more zombies.

I'll take Syphon Filter in any form though.

arkard858d ago

It was revealed the director didn't use officisl sales figures.

https://www.gameinformer.co...

porkChop858d ago

Yeah I saw. You can't base sales on trophies. Those trophies include anyone who bought the game used, borrowed from friends, households with more than 1 gamer, rentals, PS+ subscribers, review copies, etc. Those altogether would account for likely at least a couple million PSN accounts.

What I find ridiculous is that he says he still "stands by" his numbers. If the game was as successful as he thinks it was then Sony wouldn't have shot down any chance of a sequel. He shouldn't have gone around talking shit like he did with a source as flimsy as trophies, he made a fool of himself. He likely burned some bridges, limiting his options in the future.

porkChop860d ago

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.

Magog859d ago

They already did. TLOU2 is the best stealth game I've ever played.

GhostofHorizon859d ago

Rumors from multiple sources have it that an open world 3rd person tactical stealth game is in works as a first party Playstation game. Perhaps they just didn't want to double down.

CaptainHenry916859d ago

I saw that but who's the developer?

GhostofHorizon859d ago

I don't think it mentioned a developer.

Exvalos859d ago

Splinter cell is coming back, it was confirmed already.

porkChop859d ago

Yes. I know that. I didn't say it is dead, I said it might as well be. They're literally making a "stealthy Assassin's Creed" but with Splinter Cell paint.

Relientk77859d ago

*Sigh* I don't know if Syphon Filter is ever coming back

KeyAppearance859d ago

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

Phantom68859d ago

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.
