Was just going to post that, stunning looking game I must say, love the music as well, I really think Mirrors Edge is gonna be a sleeper hit this year.

Also word is that there will be 15 minutes of KZ2 footage up in a few hours, can't wait, this really is Sony's year.

It's the best graphics I've seen this generation and I didn't even know it was coming out this year, it looks like it could be really cool.

2008: MGS4, Resistance 2, LBP, Mirror's Edge, Motorstorm 2, Wipeout HD

2009: Killzone 2, UEDA game (please), God of War 3, FFXIII (hopefully not 2010 :p), GT5?

Can't wait :)

KZ2 isn't out this year :p But I do agree anyway. There's a lot of PS3 titles pushed back unfortunately, which leads me to feel that this is only a 'half year'. FFXIII, GT5 and Killzone 2 won't be making appearances until 2009.
 
Don't mind the delays on the games so long as they are good. Don't like waiting for crap. Weird when the lack of BC is the only thing stopping me buying a PS3. Oh and ninja Gadien 2 aswell lol
 
I've just seen the gameplay footage of Resistance 2 and it's totally underwhelming. It uses the same models, assets and animations from the first game. If this is supposed to compete with Killzone 2 it is going to be highly embarassing. Oh well, moving on...

Nope, it's already been confirmed from Insomniac on their latest pod cast that no models or animations were used from RFoM, everything has been rebuilt from the ground up, you can listen to the latest pod cast here http://files3.podcastspothosting.co...sodes/2008/05/01/ig_fullmoon_ep025_050108.mp3, skip to 14:00, from the project manager mouth himself, in older pod casts they explain how they are redoing all the animation for Resistance 2 and what was/is involved in the process.
 
That's not what I saw from the new footage. The exact same assault rifle model, chunky hands, animations and sounds are there. Go see for yourself. It's on 1up. Anyways, some people here really pee their own pants whenever Resistance comes under fire, so I'll leave it at that or bellyaching will ensue.

It looks crap compared to Killzone 2. That is all.

Fair do's, I agree it doesn't look as good as KZ2 but don't write the game off just yet, RFoM was a stunning game and it hardly had amazing graphics, yes from the video certain things look similar but I does makes sense since it's a continuation from the first one, they have definitely remodelled everything though, and redone the animation, anyway those videos are very poorly encoded, I can barely make out whats happening in them tbh, personally I'm reserving judgement until we get some HD footage.

It's delayed because it needs more development time, don't be so silly.

I don't believe that at all mate, if they release KZ2 near R2 it really doesn't make good business sense.

If they put 6months between them it makes better business sense.

I would put money on KZ2 being ready for release by Nov, but they will hold it back so it doesn't clash with R2. I don't blame them either, R2 should be a big seller.

Personally I think KZ2 looks better than R2, I want them both, but in all honesty if they came out in the same month I'd only be able to justify buying 1 right away, if there's a few months between them I'd happily buy both.
 
Regarding the Res2 footage,

FAQ: Video above is from a 60player MP match, Pre-Alpha, all animations are purely temporary.
To prevent these gigantic matches from becoming too hectic Insomniac is looking into having 'battles within battles'. Everyone will be placed in squads of 5-8 players and they will continuously get fed dynamic counter-objectives against another squad. You will get to learn and hate a specific opposing squad throughout these matches creating a intimate, social and fun experience. *ehem*
Also, MyResistance.net will get redesigned to become something closer to Facebook.

Also David reeves mentioned a new F1 game so i guess Sony still have the licence or even have a new one.
 
I'm inclined to agree with Inoshishi on this one, it could well be a tactical delay, considering both these titles were paired together at the conference today as two very big FPS titles releasing them at the same time could be a bad move, this winter we've got Resistance 2, Motorstorm 2 and Little Big Planet all coming out very near to each other, I certainly wouldn't want to be releasing KZ2 at that time, I'd much rather let things die down and release it in the new year, a month after Christmas when people start getting some money back after the holiday spending, I guess we're never know for sure though really.
