(continued from previous page) ...kill them, you'd have unlocked this trophy. Alas, it is not to be. Finally, for those asking about downloadable content, Insomniac is already hard at work on providing new stuff for post-launch.

All in all, everyone who owns a PS3 had better get their pre-orders in now, as Resistance 2 is a must own title. With hours upon hours of single-player and co-op play and an infinitely playable multiplayer, this will be a title that people will be playing until the PS4 launches. When Ted Price stated at the event that Resistance 2 "is the biggest and best game we've ever made," he was right.

    Wow, I'm gonna be honest, I thought RFOM2 was going to be real good, but not this good. I have a feeling it's going to beat out the mighty Gears 2 for best shooter. It's just so complete, from single player, to co-op to multi-player. Just WOW.

    MGS4 / LittleBigPlanet / Resistance 2 = Game of the Year?

    I think that R2 will be the better FPS, but I don't think it will sell nearly as well as GOW2.

     Resistance 1 was better than Gears 1. I won't be surprised if this year the same thing happens but more people notice seeing how the graphics will be much closer now.

    Don't care about sales. Crap games have managed to sell over one million copies such as Too Human, Haze, LAIR etc. But were they good? No they weren't. As long as Resistance 2 sells a decent amount, then thats fine because the game already beats Gears Of War 2 in everything else.

    excatly look at mgs4 3.4 million units+, like to see resistance 2 stats from NDP after one week. Gonna be hot.

    I think this a whole lot better than gear 2 in my thoughts.

    • 4:29am BST - September 24th, 2008

    thought the first was awful, but this looks much better. if the multiplayer is as addictive to me as cod4 then this will be a must buy... this and killzone 2

    || PSNid: Marauder_Ghost || Niiice! "muliplayer? worse. Just kidding..." lol that nearly made me spit out my drink till i read on. this game is any PS3 owners must have. I think gears 2 will out sell this imo simply because 360 fanoys will buy 5 copies each to get M$ lots of cash. But seriously R2 looks to be the better game in every aspect. Its all about Hale and Sackboy this year...Get ready to save your weekly allowances people.

    Not nearly as much hatoration as there was yesterday about this game.  These videos answered a lot of questions and shut up a lot of naysayers.   I thought the release date was Nov. 4th?  Is it the 17th now?

     Resistance 2 is really gonna beat Gears 2 due to the fact that Xbox is really H.O.M.O and the Ps3 is God

    This games going to rock. I guess Insomniac was lucky when they made a succesful launch title.

    I have to say this game is really more better than Gears of wars 2. Insomniac has gone on its way to improve the core of the gameplay and make it even more better than before. Gears of War 2 is just more of the same with some little improvements.

    Already pre-ordered.  Wish they would kept the T-bag killer trophy though... That would have been sweet!  The only thing worse than getting t-bagged is getting killed while t-bagging... LOL
