Insomniac: Resistance 3, New Ratchet Announced
We all figured Insomniac would announce a new Resistance some time soon, but we weren't expecting a new Ratchet & Clank to get tossed into the mix.
The talented development team didn't show off a new game at E3 2010 for the first time in 9 years, but that's okay. We forgive them. Because today during Sony's press conference at GamesCom, Insomniac debuted their two new projects for the very first time: leading off was a new iteration of the beloved platformer franchise, called Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One. It will let up to four players explore about with Ratchet, Clank, Quark and Dr. Nefarious; the co-op aspect will highlight this particular presentation (duh) and it'll boast drop-in, drop-out support. From what was seen during the presentation, the game uses an isometric camera view that pulls back when players move apart from each other, and the combination co-op tactics are cool. All four can leap into a four-person cannon to cross big gaps, and you can even create slingshots and chains to make your platforming adventure possible.
To close the conference, Insomniac dropped the biggie- Resistance 3. The video showed a basically broken city and when everything goes dark, an alien leaps into the scene; it's clearly a Chimera. They're back and once again, it's off to save the human race from the alien invasion. Not sure yet when it'll arrive, but make sure to check Insomniac's web page for all relevant info, including that trailer and new screenshots. It doesn't appear to be working at this moment - likely a ton of people just tried to access it in the past hour - but keep trying.
Resistance 3. We're happy.

Um yeah,they will have to bridge/explain what happened to Hale at the end. There is no way the next game will not have him in " some form ". With what happened between him and Deadus (sp?) b4 the ending I have an idea something bigger is happening, perhaps a 3rd quote "brother"

worst. secret. ever.
resistance 3 revealed
The date we’ve been all been waiting for quite some time now has finally come. Yes, we are very aware of the fact that some games are just too hard to keep a secret; however, it’s our pleasure to finally put some rumors to rest. Today, we would like to OFFICIALLY announce our latest title currently in development – Resistance 3.
Since the release of Resistance 2, we’ve listened to your feedback to help fine-tune what we know will become a respected addition to the franchise. Our Burbank studio has done a phenomenal job of crafting a cruel and brutal Resistance 3 world. You can catch a glimpse of it by watching the live-action Resistance 3 teaser trailer shown during the PlayStation Press Conference at GamesCom today. Follow @insomniacgames on Twitter and you'll be the first to know when we've uploaded it for you to watch and share with all your friends.
We are very excited to show you more about Resistance 3. Remember to tell your friends to sign up for the newsletter, we’ll be offering swag and exclusive info throughout the coming year. In fact, you can visit our Community section and download some wallpapers right now.
4p ratchet & clank co-op
insomniac nc's first title
Wait, that wasn’t enough? You want to know what else we're working on? What our North Carolina studio has been wrenching? Believe it or not, we’ve been hard at work on an all-new, out-of-this world adventure, Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One.
Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One is a four-player co-op experience with huge cinematic-quality battles and tons of cooperative gameplay. While Dr.Nefarious and Captain Qwark are no strangers to the Ratchet & Clank franchise,in All 4 One, you will be able to play as them alongside both Ratchet and Clank. If that wasn’t enough, there will also be an online drop-in, drop-out feature, so you can play together side-by-side or online with up to three other friends.

Mass Effect 2, Killzone 3, Resistance 3, Gran Turismo 5, and touch of Rachet and Clank.
To quote a line from Hudson in Aliens ---
"Hey, maybe you haven't been keeping up on current events, but we just got our a**** kicked pal! That's it, man. Game over, man! Game over!"
Thats what I see Microsoft thinking..

Either way that trailer was badass
on to R&C...
Let me say this, I love this new R&C but I don't want them to skimp on the story or anything like that
I really wanna know how Dr. Nefarious is back.
i thought he was done at the end of ACiT... ?:/

Funny. The IGN pole is "Best Gamescom Showing."
The list is all PS3 exclusives and Mass Effect 2.

Something like 28 days later.
That shadow waving at the door sure was scary.
As for the Ratchet trailer, seems like it's gonna be 2 or 3 more years until the next 'real' R&C.
A4O looked like it's a departure from the shooting platformer to purely platformer.
But it still looks fun, especially with co-cop.

I have been waiting for this and its here. The trailier even though its live action it was epic. I love the L4D vibe, which may be the new co-op campaign.
I also loved all the small details: the Grims, the Stalker, the Chimera tooth neckalce, the saws return, what looks like Bigfoot, etc. Then again maybe I'm takeing to much from it.
By the way the new inFamous trailer is pretty epic. It also shows the newest iteration of Cole.

Anyways, I hope they get rid of the lame aspects from R2 and go back to how things were in R:FoM. The whole dual weapon carry crap is so stupid, the absolute worst thing Halo ever did for the FPS/Shooter genre...
As for ME2/3, eh, couldn't really care less for them, wasn't impressed w/ ME1 on PC, wasn't impressed enough to worry about ME2 when it first came out.

Sure, we all knew that Resistance 3 was coming, but I am so excited that it's now official. Just give me some info. Who we playing, when and where? Will it focus on the story as much as the first two, or will attention be drawn away for more co-op and online segments? Ahh, you know what, I don't care, just give me a release date and I'll do my damnedest to have it on that day.
R&C: A41, not sure about. I still haven't gotten around to purchasing ACiT (not for lack of desire), but I want to know whether it will have a single player campaign at all. It certainly doesn't seem that way. I'll need to find out more about it before making up my mind.
Also, these two trailers will be first on my list to watch next time I go to see my sister and get a netconnect I can actually watch videos on.
Also*2, I wrote a post in the Mass Effect thread explaining why I will probably not get it, but forget to check whether I was still connected. In short, too many other RPGs to play and not enough time.
Peace.

i really wish insomniac would just do a R&C collection, that would be 10 times better, sell 100 times better, and cost 10000 times less than R3 and R&C!
ok, i guess R3 is ok as long as they bring back the god dam weapon wheel!!!!!!!!!!!!
nothing pisses me off more than when a game forces me to only have 2 guns.
bring back the weapon wheel, bring back 2 player offline co-op, and give us some really cool new insomniac styled crazy weapons!
the buzz saw was such a cool addition to R2, id love to see a bolt gun with a insomniac twist!

Fun games with a ton of variety
This new Ratchet and Clank game looks amazing!
Online co-op!!! There just haven't been enough co-op games imo. Platformers are probably the funnest co-op games of all time.
Resistance 3! Nice trailer and it looks like they're heading to the East (NYC). Can't wait!
