That's right, folks. Judging by the first picture, the magazine cover, and the promise of scans, it looks like Insomniac are already quite into it, too!
Before you read the article, I want to say one thing:
60 PLAYER ONLINE MULTIPLAYER.
Resistance 2 revealed! :: PlayStation Universe (PSU)
The English mag PSW also has a feature in their next issue, I think.
A quick rundown for you too lazy to clicketh the link:
- Two campaigns -- single player Nathan Hale in America, two player offline co-op/eight player online co-op. Each campaign is different, as far as I can tell.
- New vehicles, including the Chameleon (a stalker with the possibility of total cloaking)
- 60 player online mode featuring classes such as heavy weaponry, special ops and medic. Focus online mode will be squad vs. squad and not fast and furious gameplay.
And the basic techy things:
- Pushes the PS3 even further
- More enemies on screen
- Better lighting
- Better textures
- Far superior AI to R:FoM
I can see this coming out in 2008 for two reasons - 1. Insomniac already have their PS3 engine up and running, and have built two games using it (R:FoM, RaCF:ToD), updating it for stunning graphics in RaC, 2. Insomniac ALWAYS release one game each year. As far as I know, they've never missed a year, or at least, haven't done for a very long time.
EDIT: This is in the February edition of the Gameinformer Mag, so expect scans within the next couple of weeks.
