Resistance 2 out Sept. 3rd according to GameStop *UPDATE*

Posted on January 25th, 2008 at 20:25 EDT

According to GameStop, Resistance 2 is set to release September 3rd, 2008 in the US for $59.99.

GameStop's release dates, as you well know, aren't always terribly accurate, especially this far off from the title's supposed launch. Their dates are usually estimates or dates sent in from the publishers (in this case SCEA), and only when delays or cancellations occur are dates moved, so just take this news with a grain of salt.

On another note, GameStop and EB Games are now taking reservations for Resistance 2. As of today, for only $5, gamers can reserve a copy of this epic sequel and ensure that one is available the day the game releases.

*Update: We called a few GameStop stores to confirm the release date and apparently it's September 3rd, not the 18th. Once again though, GameStop dates are only estimates from publishers and corporate, and are not official.

I'm sure it isn't. But that would be nice. I vote for November.

I've never understood reservations. Why would you reserve it so far off? It's not like if it's gonna sell out if you don't reserve it. I don't think I have ever seen a game that isn't possible to get at a store without reservation on the day it releases.

@ Stickemup

ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?!?! What about GarandTheftAuto,  Halo 3(I know it is a XBOX game), even I think it was the Madden 06. There have been PLENTY of times games have sold out everywhere on day one. MGS4 will DEFINETELY sell out on day one. I can almost GURANTEE it. On topic though i really hope it does come out soon I am lookinf forward to getting it ASAP!!!

Either late October or mid November are my speculations

the only thing to keep in mind though when putting down money.  don't put down ALL the money, at least not until its really close to release date.  all the company does is take your money and put it into a high interest savings account, and thus they earn a lot of moeny off your $60.  instead put only $5 down and put the $55 into your own savings account ( i love the ING accounts, they earn over 4%) this way you make money off of it, instead of gamestop or eb games

Well if the release dates right, we all know that Insomniac games will hit the said release date. Insomniac never delays and always meets release dates. Ex. Resistance 1 launch title. Also Insomniac says that single player is roughly done ( without polish) im sure they can hit Sept 3rd.

That date sounds about right. Insomniac almost always release their games approximately 1 year apart. I love Insomniac. Expect the next Rachet and Clank before years end also, put $100 on that.

GameStop makes up these release dates pretty much. They get a rough estimate from the company and then pick a day they think might be close. The same thing happened with MGS4. There is no solid date for it.

GameStop does this because customers are much more likely to pre-order a game if there is a date down on paper even if it's totaly bogus. I know this because my girlfriend works at GameStop.

Probably gets pushed back into November, if it even comes out this year.  I know they have the campaign almost done but I just don't think it will be out this year.

even if the date is off, ain't nothing wrong with being assured a copy if you reserve it... so if you really want the sh1t, stop whining, put a nickel down on it, and wait... just like your doing right now, waiting... oh yeah, and refering to comment #5... that's why when COD 4 came out a majority of the ppl who reserved it got a day before release... and comment #20... i reserved MGS 4, and everybody knows there isn't a solid date on that yet... but when it does go gold i'll have it... i reserved HAZE last year, mind you that it was supposed to be released in November, then January, now March... nontheless, when it does come out i'm guaranteed my copy on release... no worries... so is $5 really gonna hurt your pockets that bad... if it does, well, that's sad as sh1t... i'm gonna put my nickel down on Resistence ASAP... see you when it goes gold...

If this is true (and I hope it is) then all other developers are slackers.  This will be their third AAA title since launch.

When's the last time I trusted gamestop with release dates? I've seen them withold a game be almost week so this makes no difference to me. Continuously checking the dates is the only thing that matters especially from other retailers.

i was thinking more in the october/november  range, but in september it would work better cuz there isnt as many games for me to pick up. and also if this is pushed back to christmas or 2009 its not a delay! thats just when they are trying to get it out, but there not going to rush it or release it with bugs, they will need to move it back for that kind of stuff if it comes up. NOT A DELAY!

at least a good news. please one of these publisher should give me a clear cut distinction between the power of the ps3 ad that of the 360. hope we see astonishing ps3 titles this year that will depict that,  where the developper will  say i choosed the ps3 because 360 couldn't run this game exactly as it is, without some reduction in quality. will this ever happen????

They can make an estimate dating when resistence 2 is coming out, yet they can't make an estimate dating for KZ2, or MSG4  *sigh*

Man Insomniac is really something. This will be there third game for a console that has only been out for a little over a year. Really I haven't seen any company of late that has been able to release so many games of such high quality in such a short time. My hats off to you Insomniac.
