Resistance 3 reappears in franchise survey

"Do you think that there is a future version of Resistance, Resistance 3, being developed?" Without a doubt, this is one of the strangest questions in a recent survey sent by PlayStation to its fans. Since the appearance of a mysterious billboard advertising a sequel to Insomniac Games' FPS franchise in October, fans have questioned not if -- but when -- Resistance 3 would be officially announced.

The follow-up question is meant to gauge interest in a possible third game (also mentioned in an artist resume), a puzzling proposition considering a sequel seems guaranteed. Insomniac's track record with holiday releases on PS3 has been nearly impeccable -- alternating between Resistance and Ratchet and Clank games like clockwork. Should Resistance 3 continue this pattern, we wouldn't be surprised if the game were announced some time soon, to launch on PS3 by the holiday. Unfortunately, this survey offers no conclusive evidence of whether or not that will be true.

I really, really hope they go back to the style of Resistance 1. You had to actually be careful and mindful of your surroundings to make it through some of the later levels on the higher difficulties. With the recharge-o-shield in R2, I pretty much ran through the game with no problem whatsoever. They had such a cool system in the first game with the segmented health bar that would only recharge the last partially filled segment. I still can't figure out why they ditched that. And the weapon wheel, ditched that too. Just went for the recharging health and 2 weapon swap. Quit borrowing from Halo.

yea alot of the design decisions in R2 made me scratch my head. it really didn't even feel like the same game. sure you're supposed to change stuff from 1 to 2 but not the stuff that isn't broken. i had more fun with everything in R1 than i did in R2 really. the story was better, the weapon wheel was awesome, the competitive multiplayer was more fun IMHO, and the way the health bar worked was awesome. i mean i appreciate what they were TRYING to do with R2 as far as scale and stuff but they shouldn't have strayed as far from their roots. oh and as someone who hates horror games, i despised the chameleons and flashlight parts in R2. i love Insomniac and RFOM was one of my first and favorite PS3 games so hopefully R3 gets it right.

Damn these survey makers and their lack of knowledge on the subject of correct parenthesis use!

I need R3 in my life!!!! Hale what happened to you?

Will buy for sure!
