And you will find if you look at the statistics that Insomniac don't have any AAA shooters on the market. Ever.

So its all the more astonishing what they were able to provide in the shooter space at launch. I think that point cannot be pushed enough Resistance was a launch game. And as you said it was the first endeavor of Insomniac in the shooter space.

Let's add 2 years of development time, their knowledge and dev tools for the PS3 and their shooter experience with Resistance1 and I think we can be pretty optimistic about Resistance2. It will be much more fun than Gears. I don'T think that it will sell better but it will be more fun. I am pretty sure about that.

I didn't say it was Insomniac's first endevour into the shooter space.  They already made Disruptor and Tools of Destruction.  Most people attribute Resistance's great sales to bundling and launch status.  Were it not for those two facts, the game would have been just another shooter.

The first game wasn't nearly as fun with Gears (though to be fair, I've only spent a few hours with resistance, relative to much more time with Gears).  Gears scored better, Gears sold better.  So all we have that suggests Resistance 2 will be better than Gears 2 (in any aspect) is your desire that it be so.
