Will be all over this come launch time..

sonarus5837d ago

Looks dull. Slightly better than the first one but way too slight. In 6 months time, a lot can still happen but that wasn't impressive at all

thor5837d ago

I couldn't tell whether the graphics were that impressive, poorest quality vid I've seen in a long time

Cwalat5837d ago

sonarus...

dude you gotta be joking right ?

this is SD 320x236 in resolution and being zoomed in doesnt help it either.. dude... its PRINTED with "work in progress"..

6 months away from release...

no one... and i mean no one !! should EVER question Insomniac..

King_many_layers5837d ago

I don't see why you feel it's only a marginal improvement upon the first one. Personally I think that looks much like COD4, I know it seems presumptious regarding that quality of video.

The lighting looked good and also the gun models looked good.
Looks like a big improvement, also the tree models looked pretty good too.

also I believe it was said a few months back the game was complete it's just down to pushing graphical assets to it.

sonarus5837d ago

@cwalat, i have as much faith in insomniac as you do, but from that video be it in sd or whatever it is, its only a marginal improvement over the first. No where near the graphical leap from R1 to ratchet. Obviously R2 should look like ratchet so in time the game will improve, not to mention this is multiplayer footage. In time we will see how it shapes up

gamesR4fun5837d ago

this game is gonna own the fps scene

TresTrendu5837d ago

Well i have to say i wasn't impressed either. I understand the video quality wasn't great, but just have to wait and see.

thewhoopimen5837d ago

Sonarus don't be silly. That video was clearly a multiplayer map gameplay and is hardly indicative of the game. I mean the points that blip on the screen after a kill were a dead giveaway.

Besides the video quality was horrendous. The speaker's voice dropped like 2 octaves after the video lol.

Danja5837d ago

I can't believe you guys were the same ones a month ago...praising the teaser trailer.....bcuz of one crappy ass video..which was taped on a cell phone..you guys are ready to rip the game apart

what ever happened to "INSOMNIAC NEVER DISAPPOINTS" ?

ne ways the game is looking great..gameplay wise....and that's all that should really matter in the end...and we all know the game looks great..judging from there past work....you would be a fool to think they wouldn't make graphical progress with this title.

...now how about we wait on the real video from Gametrailers ?

Violater5837d ago (Edited 5837d ago )

screw the haters
the game looks great and its going to be awesome.

uie4rhig5837d ago

hmm im not gonna judge on that yet, coz i really couldn't see much .. tho i do believe that insomniac never disappoints.. so still waiting for a trailer in a proper quality..

callahan095837d ago

Anybody who thinks they know how how the graphics in this game are based on this video is a fool. You can't tell a damn thing from this video it's such poor quality. That, and it's only multiplayer footage, no chimera shown, nothing. And it's a work in progress.

Wait til they at least release an HD video of this. Then wait some more until you see the final thing to pass full judgment.

CrazyMystical5837d ago

i like how some people love to judge games before playing them

sonarus5837d ago

lol yes i can. From what i can see there is a bit more color in this game but it simply doesn't look as good as ratchet and clank right now. In their podcast, they said they are just entering polishing stages so the game will look better definitely but from that video, it doesn't look as good as ratchet

yesah5837d ago

ehh, i was kinda disapointed. But the multiplayer idea sounds good.

heroman7115837d ago

@ sonarus

what do u expect when we are watching it on a crappy youtube video player and also if it still dosent look great in a good video player, u can always remember that this is far from final version like he said in the video. " please keep in mind that this game is 6 months from appearing on shelves so this is work in progress "

robep35837d ago

How do you breath with your head so far up your own A5RE!!!!!!
From that low quality camera phone video you can tell what
the game will be like what a total pr1ck you are mate!
No one repeat NO ONE can tell from this sh1T piece of
video how good or BAD the game will be Work in progress
6 months to go lets see how it develops when we see this
video at a decent res and then the finished game!

Rob.

The Lazy One5836d ago

You can tell enough from a crappy youtube video. Lighting, color, and animation all get across fine through youtube. The only thing that suffers is detail, which makes little affect on the end game compared to lighting, color, and animation(especially a game that looks as fast paced as that).

The environments look a lot better than the ones in the original. That's the one the biggest thing I took away from it. The squad combat I'm still not sure about. There's not much stopping a team from sending half of each it's squads to help take one objective while the others just defend another objective and have a group of 20 guys running around the map systematically taking points.

The worst part about it imo was the character animation. For some reason it always looks like people in resistance are sliding a little bit. I noticed the same thing in the first one. It just doesn't look right to me, but that's minor to gameplay.

PSMonster215836d ago (Edited 5836d ago )

Ask your selves these questions: Has Insomniac ever made a bad game? Has Insomniac made great games?

The answers to these questions are, No Insomniac has NEVER disappointed or made an underdelivered game. Yes, Insomniac is responsible for the first Spyro on the PSX, the highly acclaimed Ratchet and Clank series on both the PS2 and PS3, and Resistance, which was, IMO, a phenomenal FPS. There is not a doubt in my mind that Resistance 2 will not only have a amazing story with an awesome 8 player co-op aspect to it, but it will also overdeliver on its 60 player mulitplayer. Resistance two will definitely win shooter of the year. Better than KZ2 and better than GeoW2.

solidt125836d ago

Resistance 2 is going to rule this fall.

hades075836d ago (Edited 5836d ago )

The video quality was poor so a discussion on graphics is pointless, but am I the only one to feel like the gameplay is missing the wow factor of the first Resistance, the gameplay seemed generic. I know its a sequal and not as original as the first but I still feel kind of disappointed by the first gameplay video. I'm sure Insomniac will still come out with a quality product but so far MS and Epic are doing a better job getting me excited for Gears 2 compared to Sony and Insomniac for Resistance 2.

Ar Tonelico Qoga: Knell Of Ar Ciel Retro Review – Love Conquers All

Gary Green said: You’ll be forgiven if you haven’t heard of the Ar Tonelico trilogy. The previous two games arrived so late in the PS2’s life-cycle that they simply went unnoticed. While most were tinkering with their shiny new PS3s, Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia and Ar Tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica were being ‘returned to sender’ by your local Game stores. Luckily, you won’t need to have played them to understand and appreciate this third and final chapter, Qoga (pronounced k-yoga) tells the story of a racial war between humans and Reyvateils, a breed of biologically produced female cyborgs capable of reproduction, while still having a digital mind.

Oh my god. I kinda wish this would get a remaster on PS5, it would be awesome. One of my favorite games on PS3.

That and 3D Dot Game Heroes. It's a shame that some stuff is stuck on PS3.

Knightofelemia2d ago

Ar Tonelico 3 is good I still prefer the first AT game. The music is solid in all the games and Akiko Shikata is a very talented singer bringing life to the game. Only annoying part is well I find is Saki I always choose Finnel or Tyria. KOEI so needs to HD remaster the franchise along with Ar Nosurge and Ciel Nosurge since it never came to North America. I would day one the Ar Toneliceo games and Ar Nosurge if they were remastered.

TheColbertinator2d ago

I still have the limited edition of Qoga unopened. Unfortunately it never went up in value like I had hoped all these years.

Father__Merrin2d ago

Used to own all these quirky JRPG on ps3 good times. Wish I would have kept them all

Mugen Souls Retro Review – Sexy Demon Space Adventure

Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.

Looking Back At 2008, An Unbelievably Incredible Year Of Video Game Releases

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

ChasterMies3d ago

Some of these low paid video game “news” writers weren’t born before 2007.

just_looken3d ago

Here here

Those that were around before 2000's i am sure are like me that think we entered a world of non readers or those that follow without question.

I can not wait to see fallout 3 a goty game even though it was about water with non content until you add the dlc/updates then you got the performance/crashing

CrimsonWing694d ago

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker4d ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo4d ago (Edited 4d ago )

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing694d ago (Edited 4d ago )

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

Profchaos4d ago (Edited 4d ago )

Isn't it just a generational thing realistically.

I've been gaming since way back and I some of my favourite games go as far back as the late 80s for me each generation has a year or two of game changing releases one after another before an inevitable dry spell.

I kind of agree gaming had a different feel games hit different because we didn't have the internet nothing got spoiled and you really had to put in the effort to beat a puzzle which could set entire groups of people looking for a solution. But most importantly games were experimental and not as cookie cutter as today even basics like controls were not universal today r2 is shoot l2 is ads garunteed you can't deviate from that in a shooter back then it could of been square, R1 or R1 and circle nothing was standard.

But as time moves on a new generation picks up their controller they are going to be interested in different things that PS1 demo disc with the t Rex blew our primitive 16 bit brains back on launch but to kids today it's laughable.
The new gen of kids coming into to hobby seem to value different things to us there seems to be a huge focus on online play, streamers, gaming personalities, and social experiences, convience of digital downloads. To me I value none of that but that's ok like my parents not liking the band's I would listen to its just the natural cycle.

Gameseeker_Frampt3d ago

Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.

2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.

just_looken3d ago

It still amazes me we got over 7 rockstar games ps2/ps3 but 3 for the ps3/ps4/ps5

Dragon age 1-3 and mass effect 1-3 in 7ish years what a generation.
