I see object motion blur and some form of AO

 

Wow. I feel controversial sentiments: pretty impressed about the flames (really suprisingly good), general IQ & motion but I hate the 'dull' aspect of the graphic & the light in the game, really horrible to me (kz3 seems a generation leap in comparison).

 

Sound effect and visually, it's understandably closer to R2 than R1. The Carbine is still played with ironsight (like R2 instead of R1) ? I was hoping for firing from the hip. Pace is fast like RFOM. Animation seems a little... weird, can't tell what it is yet. Will have to play it personally to comment more. I prefer the simpler RFOM presentation and no frill setup, but this may work too. Also important is their party system and MP game modes. Hope to see some more refinement in these areas compared to previous games.

... US gamers get all the fun.

 

I love the MP video. The map "looks" fantastic to me ! But it looks good only in motion, and looks generic and boring in screenshots !

 

R3 will have Move (+sharpshooter) and 3D support, confirmed on their twitter.

Here's the pic they posted.

Sweet!

 

Ahhhh! My wish has been granted ! I had been asking them for Move support over Twitter for ages now ! I think Move is perfect for the fast paced arcadey gameplay of Resistance.

Yippee !

 

I don't like what I've seen from this game so far and imo looks like its a downgrade from R2. They had such a great feature set for two but then turn around and downgrade it just to implement MOVE and 3D functionality....No thanks. I hoping it works out but so far I am disappointed.

 

How do you figure they downgraded anything for MOVE and 3D functionality?

Personally, I'm stoked that Move support is in. Now I may actually play it - after Killzone 3, I won't soon play a non-Move supporting shooter ever again.

Also, most complained that R2 wasn't as good as R1. Personally, although R2 has its definite plusses, I tend to agree to some extent, at least I got physically ill from playing the R2 single player campaign, where R1 was one of the very first shooters that I completed the single player for in a loooong time.

I really like the graphics style of R3 so far. We'll see if the campaign is any good.

On a tangientally related note, for the first time ever I heard from someone that their neighbour had a 360, but sold it because he got a 3DTV and wanted a PS3 for that instead. So 3D support does mean something, even if currently perhaps still very little.

 

WHat I like about insomniac

is that they don't sacrifice quality to have long list of acronyms and technical jargon to talk about in interviews. Good developer. But what i see in R3 is very impressive improvement. They have created a good dynamic feel in the gameplay video while R2, for me, was a little bit sterile.

 

gamespot has the gameplay vid of the demo shown at community day up on its youtube channel !

 

You mean this:

 

As hoped the weapon upgrades are more Ratchet and Clank style than Call of Duty style add-ons.

Those NPCs need to be more active and use more cover.

 

I'm not exactly a fan of the genre, but that video looked really cool. Seems like Insomniac finally sorted out the problem with the fluctuating art quality whithout suffering performance penalties.

 

Wow, Ted Price is a high-senser.

I like the big outdoor environment shown here. I really like that about the first two Resistance campaigns. Corridors are okay, but not all the time.

I'm not worried about the multiplayer at all anymore. I used to be sad that they removed the R2-style co-op, but what they've shown a couple months back from the competitive MP almost completely made up for it. The story goes that all the cool progression features and, supposedly, lessons learned from R2 co-op were integrated into R3 competitive.

 

The video gets so intense near the end,even on the casual difficulty he is playing on ! I am sensing I will get raped by chimera in this game just like I was in R:FOM on hard ! !
