Seriously Sony, why don't you just announce this bloody thing already? Resistance 3 has been "outed" for the millionth time by an online retailer, along with a synopsis that claims players will be defending New York from the Chimera invasion.
"Continue the fight against the Chimera invasion in Resistance 3, as the battle moves to New York City and humanity makes its final stand," claims eStarland.com's sales page.
Of course, this has to remain speculation until Sony gets off its arse and confirms anything, although I really would have to raise an eyebrow at yet another game set in New York, especially with those people screaming "NINE ELEVEN NEVAR FORGET" because Crysis 2 dared to be set in the Big Apple. We probably don't need another "aliens take over New York" game, but what can ya do?
Either way, Sony needs to crap or get off the pot with this. Let's make this official, people!

The time period is irrelevant. Everyone sees an unprovoked attack on NYC and begins to draw parallels.
That said, I hope Resistance 3 is more like the original Resistance. Resistance 2 was a steaming pile after needlessly removing the weapon wheel, one of the only things that made the first game different.
Small towns in England...yeah,London may be quite small. It had some levels that were in small towns but most part of the game were bases, hills or London.
I liked Resistance 2, but the game could be much better, that's for sure.
Hopefully they will get it right this time,
lets see what they do with this one, hopefully they bring back the weapon wheel from the first one.
@hel105: KILLZONE!!!!!!!!! but the story in resistance is good, gameplay its all about KILLZONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey I got your joke, bro! HIGH FIVE!
PS those other guys didn't get the joke so nuts to them!
ideally, you shouldn't have to choose between any of them.
SPLIT SCREEN OR MULTI
I actually also think the move to New York is a good thing. The best levels in R2 were when you fought in the cityscape. The countryside settings across both games always felt a bit boring and monotonous to me. At least it will add a bit more variety anyway.
