R2 is really beinging to look like the epic game that the PS3 has been waiting for, for so... so, long
You hope. I loved the first game, but how many games have been a disappointment on some level with the PS3? GTA, MGS, SC4. None have blown me away like I'd hoped. The only game that makes the PS3 worth having is WARHAWK.

But its actually ' bigger '. Gears of war 2 just adds people into the background that make you think your having combat with them.

RE2 is going to rock. I find it funny that in the initial reviews they criticized RE:FOM's simplistic story, when it's really one of the most intriguing and best parts of the game. If you pay attention, not only does it make perfect sense, it's very well thought out, and in fact, scary.

Well hands down Resistance 2 is gonna be the best FPS this year (Mainly cause it seems to be the only FPS this year - its competition are Turok and Turning Point: Fall of Liberty, both of which vie for the spot as worst FPS ever made). It also has sufficient potential and already known information to make it the best Shooter this year. Will it top MGS IV and LittleBigPlanet to make Game of the Year? Who can say?
Hardly.

Not only do we have the new battlefield this year (you failed to mention that one) we also have; Legendary, the new call of Duty game, Huxley, Left4dead, Mirrors edge, Crysis Warhead and Farcry 2.

As for game of the year? Your shortlist is laughable. LBP looks good but it's hardly the only horse in the race. You're forgetting Fable 2, Gears of War 2, farycry 2 (again), Fallout 3, silent hill homecoming et-god-damn-cetera

Its pretty, but I haven't played it so I won't form an opinion and if you form one and haven't played it you are an idiot because making a pretty game is easy nowadays. Its like the people who nerdgasm over new final fantasy games when their first announced despite knowing nothing about the gameplay or the characters or anything but just seeing a TRAILER..

Mirrors Edge is NOT a first person shooter. Just because a game takes place from the first person perspective doesn't make it an FPS. Still, I might not call it the BEST shooter of the year, but I'm still psyched for it.

And what makes you so sure they're aliens? Apart from the fact that they most definitely are not aliens, but infected humans (and possibly animals), we still have no idea on the Virus's point of origin.
Cave aliens.

As for mirrors edge. It's first person. There will be shooting. That's good enough for me.

Also, what makes you think it's a Halo rip off? Halo has one of the most unorginal stories ever. Resistance has one of the most ORIGINAL and best stories. Also, it doesn't take place in World War 2 dippo. World War 2 never happened. Try researching the game you insult before you insult it.

Um... ok... I wouldn't say it has a great story, in fact the main character is a plank and the whole thing just feels kind of shitty, like they had this great concept and then just couldn't go anywhere with it. Killzone on the other hand has a really appealing aesthetic.

I think it's fair to note that Resistance was a launch title and Insomniac's first title on the PS3, allegedly being hard to work with. Now, that doesn't excuse it entierly, but for a first game on a relatively new platform for them they did fairly well with it I think.

Now, having made 3 games on the PS3 (if you count Quest for Booty), they've gotten used to the PS3 hardware and I have faith in Insomniac to make improvments for Resistance 2 and make me further enjoy the game.

But we'll have to wait and see.

It's by insomniac so it should be brilliant and makes me ponder if I should spend a million pounds and buy a PS3.

Resistance is one of only two games I have on the PS3, and to be honest, I didn't really want to get it, but my girlfriend wanted it so I got that instead of Uncharted. Frankly, I'm damn glad we did, as I love alternate history and all that jazz, so I'm going to be picking up R2 just to get further into that world. And as shooters go, I felt it was very solid. The mechanics were good, it was technically sound, the weapons were awesome, and a lot of the battles were quite spectacular in scope. I'll try out the multiplayer again this time around, but I found it just too much like Halo to be enjoyable for me. I'm glad they're moving away from the hilariously tacked on co-op storyline, which just added some guy who conveniently dissapeared for cutscenes of any kind.
Looking forward to it!

According to an interview, apparently Naughty Dog lent some of their technology for the game, so Resistance 2's water effects are as good as Uncharteds. This becomes better when you realise there will be flooded levels.
Naughty Dog and insomniac are fucking old school when it comes to Playstation. You know that they had offices right across the street from each other when Insomniac was creating Spyro?

Also, people that know nothing of the plot, hush. It destroys individuality because it actually changes the species of the host.

It looks boring just like the first one, and yes I played the first one.
Okay this is the last time I will say this on any forum what was the freaking problem with the first Resistance. How could you be bored with Chimera advancing on you from all sides, mines jumping out of the ground, bombs dropping all around you, crawlers coming out of nowhere, Menials biting you, enemies shooting through walls at you and fighting massive enemies during a fire fight? Are you a person or a brick? Because only a brick would go through all of this and then say I'm bored. Or are you one of those people who never played the game but just follow what some people are saying?
