Resistance 3 Announced?

nskinnear · 05:27 PM

EDIT: This is a billboard in an upcoming movie called Battle: Los Angeles. Release date for the movie = early 2011. That's when we can expect Resistance 3.

All credit to goldsoundz for taking the pics:

New York? Holy shit that's awesome!

Should've added the phrase "... via a Billboard Spotting" in thread title...

As I said before, JSTEVENSON, YOUZ GOTZ SOME EXPLAILINS TO DO!

Nice Catch! Gas is expensive down there.

Interesting way to announce a game...

So any ideas what movie this will be in?

DoctorWho · (10-11-2009, 01:29 AM)

That isn't an announcement. That is an advertisement. They missed a few steps.

I wonder who we'll play as.

I wonder if this is the last game in the series. I hope not. Despite hating Resistance 2 (single player), I still like the series and the epic alien invasion of the Chimera.

I hope the story, graphics, and music are better this time. I hope the guns have some feedback and proper sound. Shooting just never felt satisfying in R2, unlike KZ2 or even R1.

DuckRacer · (10-11-2009, 01:30 AM)

Oh shit, Statue of Liberty! So glad they're making up for their shitty locations in Resistance 2.

LQX · (10-11-2009, 01:30 AM)

Statue of Liberty? I was just saying in that wish-list thread they should forget Europe and attack NY or some other US City.

Amir0x · (10-11-2009, 01:30 AM)

I love how the place the billboard is at is all gross

VGChampion · (10-11-2009, 01:30 AM)

Cool if true. I really enjoyed R2 but R1 not so much.

eznark · (10-11-2009, 01:31 AM)

Already advertising? Crappy rush job just like two. Well done.

Dizzan · (10-11-2009, 01:31 AM)

I'm confused.

Was this not meant for the public right now?

Is it just meant to be an ad in a movie that will be released after R3 is announced?

Did I just ask two questions in different tenses?

yes

Shurs · (10-11-2009, 01:31 AM)

As I said in the other thread. I hope they go the open world route with drop in drop out Co-Op. An evolution of what they did in Resistance 2, spread into the single player campaign.

You're the MINORITY!

Relix · (10-11-2009, 01:32 AM)

Just gonna follow standard GAF procedure..

Fake.

Ok, now go on...

=P

Zophar · (10-11-2009, 01:32 AM)

Oh hell yes, New York City.

(pre-emptive "fuck everyone that hated R2")

No way, I don't want no open world crap on my resistance.

Acid08 · (10-11-2009, 01:33 AM)

I'm shocked.

V_Ben · (10-11-2009, 01:33 AM)

could be along the same lines as that prince of persia film poster in that bloody chick flick. you never know

No_Style · (10-11-2009, 01:34 AM)

I really hope they do the logical 1 + 2 = 3 and grab the best aspects of both games.

DigiMish · (10-11-2009, 01:34 AM)

Those that think they're already advertising don't know how things work. The movie is probably a few months off. The general public was never supposed to see this advertisement this early.

By the time the movie hit theaters, an announcement should have already been made, and that's exactly what's going to happen. Expect Sony and Insomniac to be completely mum about this.

And I mean c'mon - it's not like anybody is surprised here. Insomniac is on a one game per year plan - taking turns between Ratchet and Clank and Resistance.

Dizzan · (10-11-2009, 01:34 AM)

I loved the first two, especially the first but I hope that there is something new brought to the table for R3. Maybe integrated co-op in the story, or more open world, exploratory based. FPS are starting to become a little stale

GTFO. Really. GTFO. Read the thread and then fucking troll.

i heard google maps will be rolling out brand new high resolution satellite technology soon. hopefully insomniac can get a hold of it before it's too late

I expect the movie, and Resistance 3, will come out in fall 2010.

hamchan · (10-11-2009, 01:35 AM)

That's interesting.

Totobeni · (10-11-2009, 01:36 AM)

Holy fucking chicken chips

plz be like RFOM , plz be like RFOM , plz be like RFOM , plz be like RFOM

Y2Kev · (10-11-2009, 01:36 AM)

Oh shit!! Statue of liberty!!!

This is really early to announce it though. Resistance 2 isn't even a year old.

Gamer @ Heart · (10-11-2009, 01:36 AM)

I hate that Insomniac feels compelled to release a game once a year. I hope R3 gets some serious time in the oven and delivers something fresh.

Zophar · (10-11-2009, 01:36 AM)

What movie is everyone making reference to?

jercruz · (10-11-2009, 01:36 AM)

I wonder if Hale is still the star

I better start ramping up my playtime for R2... Just got the trophy for superhuman. I need to do a lot of online play to get platinum.

Jesus christ! You too! DID YOU READ THE FUCKING THREAD? It's a fucking bannable offense!
This isn't an official announcement!! It's a billboard placed there to be advertised inside a movie that hasn't been released yet. By the time movie comes out, Resistance 3 ads will start rolling out.

gketter · (10-11-2009, 01:37 AM)

After being so disapointed with Resistance 2's single player campaign, I'll keep an eye out for the game but i'm not near as hyped. R2 really ruined a lot of the mystery and intrigue setup in the R1 game. :(

wonkyaddict · (10-11-2009, 01:37 AM)

This is merely product placement. Look at the rickety setup of that billboard.

Brazil · (10-11-2009, 01:37 AM)

Awesome way to find out about a game.

I actually want resistance 3 to be like retribution.

So by advertising in a unknown movie they're doing it wrong? WTF?

I hope it's a transcontinental game.

goddamn dude. nice work on that! if its the right film, then that means that R3 isnt out till 2011? good amount of polish time then

DigiMish · (10-11-2009, 01:42 AM)

From wiki:

"Battle: Los Angeles revolves around a Marine staff sergeant (Eckhart) and his new platoon's battle against an alien invasion on the streets of Los Angeles."

Exciting. //sarcasm.
