I am not shocked at all to here that Insomniac will be bringing out R2 next year. The first game was easly the best game on any platform last year. Insomniac has proved 2 out of 2 times this gen that the PS3 is no joke, and I expect they will push R2 to amazing levels. This is just another title added to what will be the best year to date on any platform. Killzone 2, Resistance 2, Unreal 3, and Brothers in Arms, next year is going to be an awsome year for FPS on PS3.

This sounds like great news,, I'm really looking forward to this one. I am still yet to finish the first one (I think there are three levels left for me to do know). I do play a lot of FPSs but this has to be one of my favourite ones ever. (I played through CoD 3 on PS2 before, and loved it, but R: FoM was so much better) It's intense, but not as heavy as Rainbow Six or GRAW (which I found to be far too much to handle). I'm planning on getting Haze and CoD 4, but I would think that this will be bette than both of them. However, it will probably be in direct competition with TimeSplitters 4 (or at least I hope it will)

can anyone explain to me why Halo 3 is better than R:FoM?

i just don't see it. at all.

Everybody duck!

Anyway, Resisance was good and I'd be looking foward to seeing the next one. However, there were a couple of things with Resistance that I didn't like. The cutscenes are one example, I didn't mind the pictures with narration, but I really didn't like the minimal action and screentime the actual in-game cutscenes got. I also didn't like how Hale was the 'badass on the block' by not listening to anybody's suggestions and always doing things on his own.

Medic- "Oh my god, you just got your arm blown off."

Hale- "It's merely a flesh wound. . . " 

Also, the characters could have used a little bit of work as well. All you would get is a little description and then that was pretty much it. 

i'm already wearing my helmet...

hey hey, just before everyone pounces, i've completed both and it's just my opinion.

Resistance was a great game ,a very good story ,good design ,very long and superbly executed one player campaign ,a great 32 player online mode that is virtually perfect ,massive scenarios with a lot of charachters on screen at once and very good phisics ....it had to compete at the moment of the release with the ultra-shiny graphics of Gears of War that overshadowed it (Gow is mostly in closed spaces and with far less characters and objects on screen than Resistance ) because mainly textures but it wasnt the worst game of the two .

If anybody recalls the long rant an insomniac employee made a long time ago, Resistance 2 should look a lot better than the first one. Supposedly he said that they would be using things like texture streaming (didn't happen in the first one) in the second one.

Cool news ... RFOM was awesome :D

========>>>>>>>

so the best "classical" FPS on console is on PS3 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

great !!

and the best "original" FPS is on Xbox360 : Bioshock.

great !!

Even if I'd had more PS3 games, I still would have played RFOM. I beat it in two days, played online, then I beat it on Hard, then I beat it on Superhuman, then I beat it on story co-op, co-op hard, and co-op superhuman, then I played the online mode until I was maxed out rank, and I still play it every couple of days for the online. Story was cool, and the graphics still look better than anything but Gears, and Gears doesn't beat it by much, especially considering Gears was a second or third generation 360 game and Resistance was a launch title.

Also I see a few people saying 32 player online co-op, it goes up to 40.
