Whore Your Way Into The US Resistance 2 Beta

by Chad Lakkis on July 24, 2008

Want into the Resistance 2 Beta program? Well, if you live in the US, you will be able to log into the PSN, buy episode three of Qore (Sony’s online monthly subscription based programming) for $2.99, watch some advertisements, and boom — you are cleared for Resistance 2 Beta action.

Of course, according to Insomniac’s Community Manager, James Stevenson, this is only one of the many ways you will be able to get into the beta. However, as he explains on myresistance.net, their will be a pre-order option that will allow the earliest form of access, but that has yet to be announced.

Stevenson’s clarification of the Beta announcement is available below. Read more…

Initially, the leak was treated with cynicism, but, as many are beginning to discover, cold hard evidence is painting a much brighter picture.

More Resistance 2 Info: Some Rumours Finally Put to Rest

by Patrick Steen on January 17, 2008

res1.jpg The big reveal of Resistance 2 was a sight to behold on the forums. “Shock and Awe” might be an appropriate catch phrase, though that may be copyrighted for another invasion.

In all the commotion some details were lost in a web of forum excitement. Insomniac enlighten us on some misconceptions, in addition to letting us in on some new nuggets of information. Read more…

Not too long ago, an interview was conducted with Ryan Shneider, Insomiac’s marketing director, in which he stated that it was his belief that Mario Galaxy’s spherical worlds were inspired by their own Ratchet and Clank series.

Ryan even went so far as to say he was “flattered”. I wonder if he still feels that way after reading Miyamoto’s response to his comments? Read more…

by Patrick Steen on October 16, 2007

rac_pic2.jpg

There has been some discussion about the recently released demo of Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction for the Playstation 3 on the well known gaming forum Neogaf. A very select few have been having some visual troubles with the game, resulting in a pixelated mess on their HDTVs. This is surprising, since most who have experienced the beauty of Insomniac’s game can see that it is very sharp and pretty damn special to say the least. So what is going on here? Read more…
