Resistance 2 TV Spot: It's Actually Good

Kombo writes, Sony is really on to something by the way they are advertising Resistance 2. Check out the commercial for Resistance 2 and reminise back to the days when every PlayStation ad you'd see was more entertaining than mind boggling.

I like the way the trailer is laid out setting the mood, except I don't like the mix of real actors and the game footage.... It made the game graphics look crappy due to the real actors (and not because of the game itself)

1.6 - Maybe...
...it reminds us of the old PS ads because it has OLD PS graphics!

LOL sry I could not help myself from making an Xbot comment.

My brother and I keep arguing about whether this (R2) or LBP will get GOTY. This ad does an EXCELLENT job of hyping me up.

2.1 - Yeah I just got into beta last night...
...and I have to agree this is an awesome game. I cannot wait to get my hands on a retail copy. Also the ad was pretty good. I enjoyed it. I have only played deathmatches but cannot wait to enjoy some coop this weekend. So glad I have a mic, I could see some very coordinated matches getting really nasty and really fun.

3 - All the new Sony ads pwn the competition.
The new Motorstorm 2, LittleBigPlanet (saw LBP on MTV last night), and Resistance 2 commercials are very high budget and awesome.

Pretty neat commercial..

But the MGS4 "Movie-Like" Commercial or Trailer is still much better.

Can you tell me what the vice-president actually does?

Can you tell us what a Senator does? Yeah, neither can Obama, the man that has written two books about himself but not authored a single bill even when he was in state government. Do yourself a favor and despite the Palin name tag just leave that crap off the board.

In the gaming world though Resistance 2 just beat it's competition on the TV ad front as well.

No Mr dyslexia, I wrote the other part first as a demonstration that all candidates from all parties are full of holes and taking a side on a gaming board is just asking for it. And you will deserve what you get. Unlike you I am not a hypocrite because I realize the facts about ALL of them. You don't.

6 - the ad was ok
Not the best but still pretty cool game footage (what they showed of it). I been playing the beta now a few times. That orick level has some good detail (all except for the water). I am looking forward to playing the single player campaign as the online seems a bit laggy but then again...it is just a beta.

bunbun777 - 423 days 21 hours ago
8.2 - I agree on the corny angle
But it is very progressive, with its over arching united world theme- good for sales i suppose, but a little too corny with the somewhat prophetic and pagan overtones.

I liked it.

I think Sony does good ads in general. The black octupus morphing thingy was/is pretty neat.

They are running a Motorstorm ad now during sporting events where guys jump out of a plane on their respective vehicles.

Neat stuff

near the end of the commercial with the ships and that huge monster (Not the Leviathan). Then the 4-eyed chimera at the end was cool.

I saw this TV commercial for the first time Monday night and really liked it. The thing I like about this R2 commercial is that it had me hooked from start to finish, and the commercial defiantly isn't forgettable either because it's like almost no other commercial I've ever seen.
