Ted Price: "We've really upped the gore"

Posted on July 17th, 2008 at 20:39 EDT

According to Insomniac Games President Ted Price, Resistance 2 will be upping the violence and showing off more intense depictions of gore than it's predecessor.

"We've really upped the gore," said Price. In the final version of the game, players will be able to shotgun off the heads of the chimera and even go as far as dismembering their arms, legs and so on.

Also revealed was a new weapon, the 44 Magnum, which players can use to fire and remotely detonate bullets. Frankly, I can't wait to shoot a Chimera in the head then run away as they blow it like an exploding watermelon.

I'll leave you to think about that graphic depiction while our Resistance 2 preview brews inside the depths of PSU.

haha holy sh!t dude,thats fookin badas$ man... thats like a dream for me.. you allways get dismemberment and gore in third person action games and nothing like that in fps games... only one was soldier of fortune but i heard it sucked.. not even gears of war has that kind of intense dismemberment in it? this game keeps getting better and better as it gets closer to release time.

shooting them the head? how unimaginative, one in each kneecap then detonate and we will have shins flying all over the place, i hope this works as viscerally in multiplayer

sensoring is dependant on the region and what they allow. If japan wants to let you see exploding skulls so be it but chances are they may dull it down to green blood or remove some of the gibs. They're not against violence as long as it isnt super realistic humanoid violence. If you have a JP PS3 you  just have tog et used to that.

I read from GameInformer that there is this invisable Chimeran creature which weilds claws as its weapon, sort of like the Preditor. And that when it gets close enough to humans that it will basically rip you in half or byte you and everything. Then now reading that you can blow enemeis legs, arms and head off confirms that Resistance 2 will indeed be gory, very gory.

 

I also read that for certain Chimeran creatures, you have to shoot off their armour first to be able to kill them!

I wonder if this means it wont get a rating for Australia, or the gore will just get toned down, if so that is lame

 Is more gore really what the video game world needs?

When i was younger i used to love pulling heads off with Sub Zero in MK1 (yes im that old!)

But my recent experience with MGS4 has shown me that gore isn't really all that needed, you consider how little MGS4 had yet still it is a brilliant game.

Seems to me that by adding an obscene amount of gore to this game all they will really achieve is a mandatory 18+ certificate and miss out on many thousands of slightly younger players, all for the sake of something that has been proven to be unimportant when gameplay is at it's best.

Just my two pence worth.

Yeah great, take time to make more gore. But don't try to make the multiplayer any better. Has anyone seen the latest on the multiplayer? It look's dreadful look's clean but look's bland and boring, maybe they should worry about other thing's than gore.
