RESISTANCE 2 - Hype Thread w/latest info

So did people wear beanies in the 1950s?

Also,the guy with the thick rimmed glasses looks like Pierre Bernard from late night with Conan O'Brien.

Did Gamestop get a limited supply of beta codes or... I mean, when I preordered and paid the game off I didn't get a code, should I go request one? My Gamestop blows at remembering preorder offers, it wouldn't be the first time.


My GS loony handed me my Kratos code for LBP today, but I had to ask for my R2 code. "Oh my bad..." :|

I had to ask for both, GS just gives those things out to whomever asks. If you preorder you really have to stay on top of things to receive your bonuses, and not have it go to some random ass person who was just there the day they came in.

Yea it's jarring. In the first game he was mute. Now he's all tough, strangling dudes, leading men and barking out orders.

The characters look poly starved.

Looks about 20+k at least, which wouldn't be poly-starved at all. You can complain about the textures or the lighting but polygon-wise the main characters seem to receive a healthy amount of polys.

Cutscenes are obviously not the games' strongest side, especially characters are dry and low poly (Just like another big shooter around...) But with that said, I can't wait another month for the game, it seems tons better than the first game in the series, and I need my space-shooter fix, badly.
you're wrong watch this dev walkout and listen to the guy, these are all in game
This game is going to rock the ps3

edit I forgot the link:p

Let's say for some miracle of miracles I get into the beta (I filled out some questions from an e-mail sent to me from Underground), will it be hard to hang in there without a headset? I know communication is key, especially with co-op multiplayer. But before people jump on me and tell me "go buy one", please know that right now I'm between jobs :( I definitely want to get the official Sony headset, and I will get it. But right now I gotta hang in there mic-less. I don't think it should be too bad as long as I'm doing my part (aim at bad guys and shoot :D )...

Wow, it has most pointless nitpicking I've eve seen.

Anyway the cutscenes are great improvement from the first one. Motion-caption, excellent lighting and no more side-show like first one. I do think it will be Shooter of the year because of overall.

I can't wait to play to see how much they've destroyed in US (it is like godsend :p).

what I like about these second generation games besides the graphics is that they implement coop for almost every game MS PR , LBP, and Resistance2.
Sony is on the good track I think.

What the hell is this supposed to mean? Not cool if you are saying that the US needs to be destroyed in real life.

I'm digging the new direction story-wise with this game. The whole tone says "kick ass". I don't need Shakespeare in my games. If the story is deep, I'll welcome it. But it's no deal breaker for me. Only if the dialogue gets really corny is where I'll have some beef with the story. But so far, I like what I'm seeing. :D

what's to kid? he's a completely different character any way you look at it. actually, i guess one could say he wasn't even a character in the first game - just some mute experiment that ran around with cool weapons and had glowing eyes.

if you can't see that, i'd have to say you have to be kidding us

well no, it'd be their 3rd, but you're right, its not their second.

R1 > R&CF > R2

That extra game doesn't count, since its just an expansion type of deal.

Well, Seargant Hale, in the first game, was really more like an infantryman than anything else, since he usually just took orders instead of giving them. This time around, he's on US soil, and since we don't know what kind of developments there've been since the first game outside of the invasion into the US, who knows what's going on.

Hale doesn't have long to live.. it would be pretty weird if he stayed a quite like in the first game.

In the game world. Thats OK. I agree, I have been waiting for a war game on US soil. The way I read it, it sounding like you wanted the US to be War Torn is real life.

Can someone explain to me what they mean by poly starved? N64 games are poly starved. PC games from 1998 are poly starved. Insomniac games have never been poly starved.

I signed up for the beta through the resistance site, and the link PSU sent in the email. As a rule, I always accept that I will lose lotteries like that. Enjoy the beta guys.

i like the new trailer until i saw Hale's Ass. he's missing 10k poly's that should be his round ass.
