Not only was Insomniac's PlayStation 3 first-person shooter Resistance: Fall of Man a pretty good game, but it also sold a few copies. It's silly to think that the folks at Insomniac are sitting on their hands after having finished work on Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction.
Surfer Girl has already dropped a fair amount of (rumored) information on the sequel to Resistance. Whether or not that information pans out as truth remains to be seen, but here's a solid fact: Sony Computer Entertainment of America filed for trademark of "Resistance 2" on December 18.
Sure, "Resistance 2" could be anything -- a Sony branded toothpaste, for instance. But I think it's safe to assume that it will be an Insomniac Games developed first-person shooter game for the PlayStation 3. If I were calling the shots, I'd release information on this game next month, and I'd do it on the Internet and in one magazine as an exclusive. Just throwing it out there. I'm smart. Just sayin' is all.

Vive le Resistance... to AIDS!
War is nitty gritty stuff, dark and bloody. Not green with purple baddies and sticky nades.
Agreed.
I did love Resistance though, great game. Just not great enough to warrant so much stepping on Halo in its name.
Second why go on a Halo rant when nobody even brought up Halo to begin with?
The weapons are awesome, the enemies are cool, and the combat is fun, but I just couldn't get into it.
Chances are I'll buy the sequel though. The weapons were really innovative and strategic. Not like most shooters where you grab a gun and never use the guns you grabbed before ever again.
Exactly what I was thinking. I did a CTRL+F for halo and Robbo the hood is the only one to mention it. Yet he yells at us for hating on it.
Resistance has enough different about it that I don't find it too cliche. The intelligence data really helped add to that. There is also a third party or two (the cloven, and maybe top secret US government guys) so it's not gonna be just you and the Chimera in Resistance 2. Resistance has color, it just not as vibrant as games like Uncharted and Halo.
