    The Newest Game Informer has it, apparently it looks amazing.

    The game will have a huge 8 player co-op campaign as well as single player.
    The matches will consist of totally lag free 60 person multiplayer with huge United States based environments as the backdrop.

    "In short it's a tour de force" of the PS3"

    Narrative will follow Nathan Hale, his plane is shot down over Iceland adnd joins a (United States?) based Sentinel program.

    'Chamelon' Chimeras can make themselves entirely invisible

    Insomniac is out to prove that Boss Battle can work in an FPS

    8 Player online Co-Op, 2 player local

    Classses are a big thing (for online?), Tanks will specialize in heavy infantry, Special Ops will get specialmodifiers to certain weapons, Medic

    For Multiplayer, online matchmaking (I think this is what he means) has been replaced with scalled team difficulty (What?)

    Levels will be partially randomized

    Up to 60 players online multiplayer

    Players will be logged into smaller 4-8 man squads who will be tasked with a specific objective on the battlefield, Teamwork and communication are important, level design is being carefully worked on to make everything flow and make the player feel as though they are in the middle of a huge conflict, and work within the arena of larger combat.

    THe game will use servers to deliver a faster online experience than any game of 2007. All of your stats will also be recorded on your personal homepage on myressistance.net, social networking features, full clan and party system support

    Aiming to have sound quality mathch that of mobile phones (what?)

    Graphics are hugely improved over the original. More enemies on creen, more detailed textures, more normal mapping, textures will maintin detail no matter how close you are

    AI will scale dynamically on the fly to players viewpoints and position (IE CHimera that are close to you will dysplay much more adaptive AI than ones who are far away) Chimera asa whole are sneakier and smarter than they were in the original

    He used to had penis in the middle. :up:





    That didn't come out right.

    Anyways, graphics arn't much different, Chimera look a little better, grassy environments are nice. We'll have to see, but it looks like "Just another Resistance." not "Revolution of the FPS genre."

    Looks the same to me, actually. The textures are maybe a bit cleaner, but otherwise they look sort of the same as before.

    And since when does more players = better multiplayer? Halo alone evidenced that small, tight-knit groups of people playing together can be better than any giant ass hectic matches. Maybe they should focus on making the multiplayer better, not just bigger.

    FRANKLY I DISAGREE, I THINK JUST BASED ON THESE PICS THAT RESISTANCE 2 LOOKS BETTER AS FAR AS THE MODELS GO, THEY HAVE MORE INTRICATE DETAIL AND THE TEXTURES ARE BETTER AND SHARPER, NOT THAT THE ORIGINAL WASN'T GREAT!!!;):D:up: AS FAR AS HALO GOES, I COULD CARE LESS, NOT EVERY GAME HAS TO BE LIKE HALO OR COMPARED TO IT, NO OFFENSE!!!:O:D
