Sony has unveiled all-new details on Insominac’s upcoming FPS Resistance 2 during a press event in Sydney, Australia this week.

According to reports from the event, Resistance 2 will offer over 100 hours of cooperative campaign gameplay, while the single player campaign is estimated to take between 10-12 hours when playing on the normal difficulty setting.

In addition, Insomniac plans to fully launch MyResistance.net in two weeks time, with the leaderboard and stat tracking modeled after Bungie.net.

Many gamers are currently getting their first hands-on experience with the game thanks to the North America beta, which began yesterday.

    Could've been a longer single player :/ Over 100 hours of co-op campaign sounds sick though!

    I am testing the beta, The co-op was pretty fun, everyone gets lost sometimes and we re group and the action picks back up, couple parts were tough.

    THE PVP is insane, and super fun, I went on a killing streak and it blew my mind at how awesome and how much fun this game is.

    Yes, the bullets hitting the water causing waves was a very cool sight to see.

    The gun with the blades that shoot out was really cool.

    I havn't got into the PVP yet but the Coop is out of this world. Only real complaint I have is, sometiems you spawn very far away from your team. Gears of  what? It has noting on R2.

    psn id: gingo.... 10-12 hours is pretty standard for a shooter but over 100 hours for co-op is insane, insomniac never let us down

     deniled, How is it in the 60 player. Is there a lot of lag, or is it pretty smooth.

     Nevermind on that comment, didn't read your full post. My bad.

     just thought i would answer your question sonyjunk. you ask if there is any lag in the sixty player matches? I am so proud to say that I have played the beta (both eight player coop and 60 player competitive campaigns) and have experienced absolutely no lag, jerky framerate, or stuttering. that's right. absolutely none. Guys let me tell you this game is an absolute blast. November fourth is just too far away
