Back at the Resistance 3 reveal during Gamescom, we got a very swish live-action trailer, but there was no sign of any in-game media. All that has changed today, with a series of images looking like the first screenshots and concept art for Insomniac’s latest appearing on a mysterious Flickr account.
They focus on what appears to be a refugee hide-out named haven, and Resistance 2’s Nathan Capelli, who (together with his potential appearance in that first trailer), looks to be the main playable character in R3. There are also two shots of a prison-based multiplayer map.
Of course, none of this has been confirmed by Insomniac or Sony yet, but the screenshots and art certainly look official. Either that or somewhere a Resistance superfan has way too much time on his hands. Hopefully it won’t be too long before we see some official media for the game.

Who’s Capelli again? The annoying one who errm was involved in a cutscene at the end with Hale? (trying to prevent spoilers)
But otherwise these look incredible. This is more like it Sony!

Capelli is indeed the one involved in the cutscene at the end, I wonder if that will come back to haunt him in R3…
The screenshots look promising, I didn’t enjoy R2 as much as I hoped I would compared to R:FoM so I’m hoping R3 gets back on the right track. Both the tone of the reveal trailer and the tone of these screenshots seem to suggest that they are going for a very different mood with R3, it definitely has a ‘post apocalyptic’ vibe to them, like they’ve already lost the War…

Which is exactly how I want it to be! I always thought R1 and R2 were a bit campy and B-movie if you get me. I wanted a darker tone, more gritty, focussing on how individuals dealt with it and a bit more character development, instead of the cliched and quite boring army against the aliens.
I hope R3 can pull this off.

I spy the St. Louis arch!
Looks like a lot of great detail in 13 & 14, which look like multiplayer maps. And the faces look great in 7 & 10 as well, but I thought they looked fantastic in Resistance 2 already.
*Hoping this plays more like R:FoM than R2…*

hope this one will be better than R2 and it’s dumb trophies and bullet sponges enemies

I very much like where the art-style is going. The “shit has hit the fan” teaser trailer we had a few months ago implied a real every-man-for-himself attitude and quite the wasteland as a vista. Great stuff.

The fourth from the end looks like it could be you shouting at Balamrules
