THE OFFICIAL RESISTANCE 2 UNVEILING:
"They are coming to us.
Can you hear them?
It is Beautiful."

" Ryan Schneider, the longtime Insomniac PR man who is leading the project, had me convinced it will be something special."
"Resistance's demonstration have made it clear that Insomniac’s franchise is the true challenger to Master Chief’s reputation. It has the scope, the scale, the design ambition and the ever-improving technoology to merit"
"I felt diminutive, outnumbered and, ultimately victorious against the odds. The feel of the level matched the developers’ pitch. And that giant tank took a beating courtesy of some attack planes and a rocket launcher on Nathan Hale’s shoulder."

Resistance 2 the best shooter of 2008? "The co-op is doing something nobody else is doing right now, plus the competitive mode is doing stuff nobody else offers," he begins. "The single-player mode is continuing the Resistance story. It's got third-generation PS3 technology which should give it a look I don't think will be equalled by other games... I think players are going to be happily surprised with how much it's evolved since Resistance: Fall of Man."

"Anyway, we suited up with six other journalists and Insomniac guys for a full 8-player game, and what we ended up with was probably the most fun online multiplayer experience I've ever had."

"Resistance 2 could easily be one of the largest games of the year and definitely in contention for Game of the Year honors when it is released at the beginning of November."
"Additionally, the game will intentionally scale the size of the encounters to match the number of players in the co-op game at one time, so if you go in with one friend, you'll probably face off against individual large Chimera that are tricky to defeat, but possible with some skill. On the other hand, if you move into battle with the full compliment of eight soldiers, Insomniac plans on having up to 100 enemies on screen at once swarming and attacking you. All of these enemies can be of different sizes and shapes, giving your squad a significant challenge."
