UPDATE:

Further reports state that the film is due out in early 2011, and is being produced by Sony Pictures.

ORIGINAL ARTICLE:

Images have surfaced on gaming forum NeoGAF depicting a billboard advertising Insomniac Games’ Resistance 3.

Seen below, the shot was snapped on the set of the film Battle: Los Angeles in Shreveport, Louisiana. Upon closer inspection of the photo, one can make out a silhouette of the State of Liberty, indicating that the game will likely take place in New York City.

Right now that’s all we have to go on the matter. Insomniac Games has made no such announcement regarding a possible third installment in series, though we’ll do our best to dig around for more info. For the time being, file this under rumor and make of it what you will.

Stay tuned to PSU for more information as it breaks.

     that's statue of liberty not state. I can't wait to hear more about it i love the resistance series. Also i highly doubt it's going to take place in new york city, if you've played the second one you know why. The statue of liberty stands for more than just New York lol look past the obvious.

    I hope they go back to the original R:FoM style, and ditch the R2 style (not that it was bad, just lacked originality).

    • 10:06pm BST - October 11th, 2009

    Whatever, they destroyed all interest I had in the series with R2.

    Oh and if Hale isn't the main bad guy in this I will be shocked.

     if you look closely there is a blacked out section under the name. i highly doubt that would be on any billboard.

     @17

     

    i hated FOM's gameplay, it was so horrible, felt like a bad ps2 game!

     

    loved R2's though! :D

    • 10:17pm BST - October 11th, 2009

    i hope they do everything they did in the 2nd game but add co-op to the main story line also, and hopefully they put more of a dark feel to the game like they sorta did for R:FoM but not all gray and sh**. b/c i really liked all the color and stuff they did to resistance 2 but R:FoM had a cool dark sorta feeling and they should add some sorta vehicles into the game,lol

     Split Screen Co-Op!!

     id be down with a new round of weapons too.  the new ones they incorporated into R2 were kinda lame.  i still prefer RFOM for campaign, but multi-player online was good times after they made adjustments!

    So it's a rumor that the billboard is spotted??

     

    I thought that was a real billboard from what I have heard.

     How was the single player and co-op in R 1& 2? I ask because even though I enjoy FPS games I've never been a fan of the online versus. After about a week I grow bored with it, so I never buy those games unless I'm sure the story is solid.

     This is my favorite exclusive series and I look forward to getting my hands on part 3.  Cant wait!

    The online co-op in R2 was awesome. no need to play much capaign.

    • 11:38pm BST - October 11th, 2009

    If Resistance 3 does happen, I hope Insomniac games will take their time in the making and have more of a Resistance Fall Of Man type of game rather than the second installement. I mean come on, Fall Of Man had more of that horror feeling, who's with me?

    Plus they should return some weapons from the first back to the third one, double pistol uzi's, ect

    • 11:48pm BST - October 11th, 2009

    @19 It might've had a release date or release year or something, and if it is being made, yet hasn't been announced, I don't think they'd want to give away the release date.  The billboard was made as product placement and Insomniac just made it to, obviously, tease R3. But, they might have put the date, and since the game isn't officially announced, it'd totally ruin the surprise it.

     

    Not that having a billboard announcing it would keep the surprise, but, you know.

    I would probably say it will be out by November 2010. Just like the previous two games, they are separated by 2 years. Nov 06 to Nov 08 to Nov 10.

    Probably just a movie set, they need their stuff to be current so second guessing is their usual fall back.

    That's a photoshop. A game that's not even been announced having  an M-rating already? Yeah, it's fake as fake gets.

    • 1:04am BST - October 12th, 2009

    yeah thats obveously photoshop.  not even very good photoshop.  resistance 3 is deffenitly ocmming, but that image is fake.

    R2 would have been so much better if it had online 4 player co-op for single player everyone of your friends going in seperate ways and meeting up like they do in the story, unfrotunatly so many die at the end so slightly pointless they shouldnt have killed any off, R2's story lost me to be honest.

  36. super_truper911

    • 1:30am BST - October 12th, 2009

    insomniac's gotta fix a ton of things in res. the first one's graphics were barely on par for a next gen game but personally it had that fun factor which made it a blast to play with all my friends then came r2 and it was gone. must need splitscreen must need coop. and there was sumthing about r2 that didn't feel right....

    @5 yeh lol been on forums talking bout it and there's a close up pic

    first let me say what a way to anounce a game if true

    second let me point out under resitance 3 something is blacked out It probably wouldnt have an ESRB rating or whatever its called and the PS3 symbol seems to small

    brits 

    eager for this. much anticipated arrival but please may it live up to the godlikeness of rfom instead of the lagginess of r2

     AWESOME!!! I'm so happy it'll take place in New York City.  They need to focus more on polishing up the graphics though because R2's graphics were pretty decent, but had some obvious polish glitches, like a glowing piece of wood in a dark room, or a random extremely blurry texture, or body parts floating around in the air.  Also, I hope the blood is more realistic. I can't wait to see what's going on in the story in number 3.  Also, I hope Hale is alive, and more badazz than ever.

    • 3:31am BST - October 12th, 2009

    oh resistance 3 is comming but thats obviously a fake and not real but it does seem to have a little sense to it lol

    @33, No the billboard has the "RP", it hasn't been rated yet.

    Hopefully this is true and its a teaser for the fans. Oh and I hope to see this game become a greater improvement over the last one. Like Co-Op!!, old and new weapons, better theme, better levels(Please no more crappy obvious levels, give us broad larger levels!), vehicle levels(Using a stalker was badass), better bosses(I want to fight more then one Goliath please, and no easy bosses that I can beat on Super Human- Leviathan).

    If my guess is right, we might get a new protagonist on this. Nathan Hale is done as a protagonist and I don't think that Compelli(?) is fit for that job.

    wtf? how can it be set in ny? didnt any1 here take notice of the ending of R2? doesnt even make sense. if its set in NY then we pretty much should just ignore everything that happened in the last scene. lame
