Where were that at? Sony's headquarters there? Since they try to walk out with the system near the end and they're stopped by some cute girl and they take it back in.
Sony's going to have a big cleanup job with all the fingerprints that put on the system by constantly handeling it.

very very nice. also, it seems like they are using the tilt control in motorstorm. is that new? i've never seen the tilt working in motorstorm before.
They (Evolution studios) have said it's a pre release experiment but they may go for something else like having it be the 'in-air' control. You could choose between both controls in that demo.

Sony don't have any HQs in Norway I think so Nordic Film Interactive is basically responsible for importing and promoting the system over here, so I guess you could call it the HQ even though it isn't.. yeah. At the end they were joking about 'borrowing' the system for a couple of weeks more.

Well who here thinks they can manage the clan?
As in doesnt have a job and other pesky resposibilities =)
I doubt I would be able to manage it, I hardly have time to manage my own life.

How about starting a thread.
"Resistance: Fall of Man GAF Clan roster!"
Then asking who would like to join and keeping the roster in the first page. Would be nice to see how many here in GAF are interested.

I noticed that the journalists in the video said that the controller is called Sixaxis because you can move it in 6 dimensions.Wollan said:
I guess this means an upgrade from Kens 4 dimensions!!!!!!
Nice to get some good news from Norway. :lol

Well I am sad to announce that I will not have a PS3 this Christmas. All ToyRus around my area have about 20 people waiting. Many of them since yesterday. I can't compete with people this hardcore.
=(
I hope you bastards enjoy Resistance. Think about me while you shatter the glass of the windows and kill a few chimera in my name. I'll join you at the end of year or early next year.

I like this line the best...
""In the siege of Genoa, Italy, soldiers report of the extraordinary durability of Chimeran units. They are referred to as "the deathless plague" and many regard them as invincible.""

Nice tag Kitty!

Hahaha, I didn't even notice it until you mentioned it. I guess it's time for me to jump into Lake Ontario. Owned by the biggest name-throwing developer of all-time, for shame for shame.
Sorry I'm so drunk right now, just came back from a wedding.
On the other hand I finally have a unique tag yep yep.

I love that site! The alternative story tid bits sound very cool! I love the attention to detail
I really hope they will be able to fit all that into the game's story

Found this on the official forum (it originated from the Resistance Union @ Gamespot) Apparently there are secrets hidden around the site:
The lights above the title will light up.
It looks like you will unlock them by randomly clicking the pages, if there is an order it's unknown.
The pages with discovered secrets so far are:
Runner
3rd Presidential term
Military Spending 1941

Ah.
Not really on-topic, but I really hope Sony/Insomniac jumps on the collectibles bandwagon for this game. I don't mean a collector's edition of the game, but genuinely cool stuff like figurines, artbooks, etc.
Resistance is pretty cool. I've spent 4-5 hours playing the preview code (four full levels). It varies between being very intense and pretty creepy.
I will say the game is HARD - the Halo style 4-bar energy regen system doesn't do much as a couple of mistakes and you're down to nothing.
Varied weapons are what makes the game great. Truly multiple ways to beat any scenario.

This might be a preview code issue but a big negative is that the soldiers fighting alonside you seem be pretty much brainless drones. You don't seem to affect their behaviour (like CoD) and they don't seem to do much damage. They just kinda stand about lamely and act as scene dressing.
Hopefully they tighten this up in final game as you'd expect awesome squad style AI in a CELL gaming machine.

Feel free to ask and I can answer. Just be aware it's preview not final code.

My favorite thing is the secondary ability on the sniper rifle - which lets you physically slow down time for 5-6 seconds in zoom mode. Imagine dashing out into view, hitting zoom and slowing time on a group of sniper aliens, they spot you and start firing back, and you can actually see their rounds coming towards you in bullet time, and you have to pick them off before your own time slowdown effect runs out. The effect is awesome, with blurred vision and increasingly distressed/red view as your time runs out.

In what context did you attain this preview code for? I'm not totally sure about your background obviously and what you do (sorry about that).
You say 4-5 hours, is that the total amount of time you've spent replaying the levels and if so, how long did it take to finish those 4 levels once?
I've finished the first couple of levels maybe 2-3 times each. The third level (indoor) is tougher, only finished it once. The last preview level is super tough, huge metallic spider bosses and stuff. It took about 30 mins to play though, though I probably tried 8-9 times to beat it making the playtime for that level 2-3 hours.

Is it a chaotic mess or dynamic fire fights? Is it backpedal firefights?Vibri said:
Do you feel as you know what's going on? Does it feel like you're playing a 'story' or just disconnected levels? (ala Tom Clancy games)
How do the enemies react to you? Do they shout at you?
Do the soldiers talk to you and react while in combat?
The levels, how open are they? Are they just big but straight forward?
How are the checkpoints?
Tieno said:
1. Yes it's a cohesive story, but I won't go into spoilers.
2. Only seen 5-6 enemy types in the preview code but they do vary. They vary according to the weapons they have (like one enemy carries a weapon that shoots though walls/buildings so you need to act accordingly) and some stronger ones actually rush attack you into retreating.
3. They communicate but not as much as I expected, they seem tied more to trigger events (plane crashing etc). I'm guessing this is just not implemented fully yet.
4. They're pretty big. Imagine an open field with various gun placements and multiple ways to progress up. The AI/physics is fairly advanced so I'm guessing they kept it open on purpose to allow for emergent type play.
5. There are checkpoints, but they're not forgiving (in the preview code). 10 minutes or so apart.
