Resistance 2 beta begins right now

by Justin McElroy on Oct 17th 2008 3:30PM

Hey PS3 owners, a little torn up about the delay of LittleBigPlanet? Don't be! Today isn't marked only by bad news, because a lucky few of you have been admitted to the Resistance 2 beta, which started today. So, those of you who pre-ordered at GameStop, subscribed to QORE or won that GamePro contest, what are you waiting for?

Besides, Resistance 2 is just like LittleBigPlanet. You say you can make millions of different games with LBP? Well, R2's got a billion of them. Like, there's "Shoot the Alien" or "Pretend the Alien's a Mutant and then Shoot It" or ... no, that's it, just those two. But they're a rich two.

Typical sony releasing things for people to download.

This will burn in flames just like everything they have ever done EVER in the history of everything!

I hope all you sony fanboys are happy using your playstationFAIL

Ummmmm...what?

Goddamnit! What is the problem now?!?!

Don't be upset because you won't be playing it on you 360.

/sarcasm

I don't get it.

Atleast this PS3 doesn't give the RROD...
I barely had any issues using my PS3 then with my FAILBox 360...

Ohh...and swallow this XBOT... on PSN...we DON'T have to pay yearly/monthly fees to PLAY...

And...Have a nice day!

Pretty much what I was planning on doing until LBP anyway. I've been playing it since yesterday, and I love it. Really changed my mind about getting R2.

i hear the demo features a pretty sweet Muhammad dance number opening

I got into the Home Beta, Socom Beta, and now the R2 beta but all I wanted was LBP Beta :(
Can I give away this code?

Yes please :) .

I will take it please...pretty please

Hey jack. I got the beta invite. 2 words.

holy SHIT!

This game is fffffffffffu*king addictive.
I'M very picky with first persons, and I just thought R1 was average but fun.

8 player coop is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo fun.

everything from unloading on the aliens, to reviving teammates, to getting revived, to yelling on ur mic AMMO! NOW! MEDIC!! LOOK BEHIND U, I'M ON SLEEPING ON THE GROUND, REVIVE ME STUPID BEFORE U DIE! and the EXP POINTS THAT KEEP POPPING UP. So satisfying.

The videos do NOT do it justice. It's not a game that takes practice and getting used to for it to be fun. It's fun as soon as u start shooting and retreating with ur teammates.

oh, and NO LAG!!

Wish it were on PC though =\

I preordered it just now after playing 4 hours straight. So damn pissed i start work tomorrow morning. I really feel sorry for Resistance fans who did NOT get the beta. But at least it's coming out in 2.5 weeks. Should I vote then play, or play all day long? :*(**. Go obama! You don't really need my vote do you?

I have an extra code if anyone wants it. Just reply here with an email I can send it to, first to reply gets the code.

I will take it please...pretty please PLEASE PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!

b.l.jones85@gmail.com

could I have code?

vidikron@gmail.com

guess i'm the 2nd, but worth the shot. strife0429@gmail.com

Worth a shot here too: gadget_man7@hotmail.com

New PS3 owner, want something cool to play. :D

please would love to get the code

And this beta has been delayed for a while as well. I bought Qore 3 so I assume I'll get my beta code sometime mid-January because of some inappropriate representation of Mormons or something.

Yeah, "right now" doesn't seem to apply for those who bought Qore 3 :|

does anyone know if Qore 3 will get you into the beta (like was originally posted), or do you have to subscribe for a year to have the PRIVILEGE to play the beta?

nevermind... looks like people are already posting... that sucks

According to the Playstation Blog...

"a Premiere wave which includes those that pre-ordered at GameStop, individuals who subscribed to QORE for one year and/or bought the episode featuring Resistance 2 and a recent contest from GamePro.com"

So, buying the one episode should get you in.

just tried and it didn't work. hopefully sony will pull through. maybe...

You don't access it through Qore. You'll get an email with the download code. I believe that it's the email addy that you have linked up with your PSN. Also, the email is from "PlayStation-Underground@playstation.sony.com" so check your spam folders =)

The beta codes are sent out in waves. I recieved a code for Resistance about a month ago, and another last week. I think the codes are given through Quore on a priority basis i.e. the people who bought/subscribed to the service earlier get the codes earlier. So be patient.

Also, I gave away my last code yesterday night. sorry.

Extra codes please?

j_blaza_2004@yahoo.com

Qore 3, Preordered CE, signed up online.....still nothing.

yea preordered and nothing for me either. it'll come. thats what she said...

Finally! Got my preorder invite this morning! Downloading now.

I also have an extra code since I wasn't a fan of the original, this does not interest me. First one to reply with their email, i'll send them the code.

gadget_man7@hotmail.com !

It's all yours Cellien.

*watches as gadget man gets buried in spam*

Thx Jared! Can't thank you enough! :)

man of all the betas I yet to see one beta code emailed to me i am a quore subscriber and still havnt seen a code. I also had a underground entry. I just wont bother spending money or entering anymore contests for betas. I am so tired of being told one thing from sony and they never follow through in the time frame they say they will. I dont wonder why sales continue to suck in the USA. We americans don't like being lied too. first they take away BC, home has suppose to be here for 2 damn years and still aint every game seems to be delayed for some reason. Ports shouldnt have even passed QA but LBP seems to stop at the presses over some stupid song but they will publish games like haze,and other crappy ports. I often wonder why I even paid the 700 for my PS3 on day one. I wont make this mistake again when PS4 comes out.

thats odd,

I've received two codes for every beta Sony has offered.

ubisoft is responsible for haze which flaws seem to include being just another shooter plus gimmick that was a timed exclusive for ps3 and MM made LBP.

seriously come on. I've been waiting for my code to come for so long. I've had the game reserved for a long time and have order a CE copy as well, plus I have Qore. After all that I still don't have a code.

Anyone have a spare please?

Please someone tell me they have a spare.

I never care about betas, but I'm buying this sucker the day it comes out.

Funny picture. After all the talk about "adult/serious games" it looks more like home work assignment.

Unlock that, unlock this, do that, do this. Ersatz parenting in action.

Anyone read the time for each?

18-24 hours to complete the game and unlock all levels.

60-75(!) hours for online co-op X 3 classes.

If that means what I think it will mean, this will be a long game.

Hi guys I really want a beta code, if someone has a spare please.
email: carlosalamosanto@aol.com
psn: HighRizer33
Thanks in advance!

If someone has an extra code if you could send it to me PSN: Etheris
or email: etheralhunter@yahoo.com
I would greatly appreciate it!!!
I need something to occupy me now that Little Big Planet is delayed!!

what the hell? i still havent gotten my beta code in the e-mail yet.WTF?!?!?!

OH come on! Please, does anyone have a spare code? Please someone respond to me! I'd rather not post my e-mail before knowing because I'd rather not attract strangers.

Please someone tell me they have a spare code!
