Resistance 2 Co-Op Beta Coming, Release Date Announced

Nicholas "bapenguin" Puleo September 03rd, 2008 at 8:09 AM

The folks at Insomniac are breaking a lot of ground with Resistance 2.  Not only will the game support over 50 players online in team based gameplay, it will support 8 players online in a special cooperative campaign.  In fact, the co-op campaign is so special in Resistance 2, it's been decided to have a public beta of it sometime in early October.  To gain guaranteed access you'll need to pre-order Resistance 2 at Gamestop or subscribe to the PSN Digital Magazine Qore.  If neither of these options are suitable for you, perhaps simply registering on the website will suffice - entry to the beta is not guaranteed though.

With a co-op beta early in October release must be getting close, right?  Actually it's getting very close, with Insomniac announcing a November 4th release date and details of a collector's edition of the game.  What's in the package?  A behind-the-scenes making-of documentary, video commentary from the game's developers, a "Twisted History" chronology video, an exclusive multiplayer character skin, a double-sided art book, and a preview of the unannounced Gathering Storm novel and a five and a half inch tall Chimera Hybrid action figure (Karate chop action not included).

If they don't have karate chop action, my hopes for the kung fu grip are most likely dashed.

Let's hope that this one turns out well. Resistance 1 was a strong title, but I felt it borrowed a little too heavily from Half Life 2.

I'm sick of pre ordering for special access/items in games, Gamestop always screws people out of it, and no one else knows what you're talking about when you go to pre order at other retailers. Give me a demo or access to the beta (without spending money) and I might show interest in this game. I really felt disappointed in the first one that I traded it in within a few days.

I want that CE.

And I'm already in the MP beta because of Qore. One week to go on that.
Probably won't get into the co-op beta though, because the Official PlayStation Magazine Qore codes are always the month after it's been released.
