Sony details Resistance Retribution News
PSP News by Robert Purchese
Sony has let out more details for its freshly unveiled Resistance PSP game.
Retribution is to be given an entirely new story by Sony US studio Bend. Events take place weeks after Resistance: Fall of Man, and you play not as Nathan Hale but as James Grayson, a former British Marine.
He has a personal vendetta to settle with the Chimera after they forced him to shoot his own brother who, like the rest of Western Europe, was being converted into a dirty alien. Dun dun dun.
The biggest difference is that Resistance Retribution will be a third-person action adventure and not a first-person shooter.
It does look rather good though, as the first screenshots and Sony conference trailer showed. This is down to a "third-generation" engine from Bend that can handle more detail and bigger environments.
The developer is also giving it a "revolutionary" targeting system to compensate for the cramped PSP controls. You'll be able to put this to use with lots of new weapons on lots of new baddies.
On top that is multiplayer for eight of you either locally or using Wi-Fi, with the usual Capture the Flag and Deathmatch modes as well as Containment and Assimilation variations.
Resistance Retribution is due out next spring.

i thought the psp was dead, it looked like Final Fantasy Crisis Core & Secret Agent Clank were te last games of any interest.
But after yesterday my PSP wanted list is upto 4, LocoRoco 2, Patapon 2, Super Stardust Portable and of course Resistance Retribution. Hopefuly some third parties will get back behind the system and get good regular releases going for it again. |

@myragios five if you include the forthcoming Kingdom Hearts, seven with the two Star Ocean titles (Square Enix also have a beat em up FF game in the making, who knows might be alright) I'd also add R-Type Tactics, cause I'm into that sort of thing (I presume the US demo will pop up on the EU store early September) and there's also the hope, the HOPE that out of Phantasy Star Online and Monster Hunter 2G, at least one of the two will make it over here with FULL online support. We can but hope. oh and who knows maybe we'll see some more
Anyways, this looks really good, was hoping for something from SCEE at the show, oh and another Socom: Tactical Strike but it probably sold about 10 copies, shame as a sequel could've smoothed out the rough edges and really gone somewhere with the franchise, no Spectrum War thingie about, need more tactical gunning goodness. Butr I'll take what I can get and pray as with others here that more Japanese games are announced this year, that and we get some more goodies on the PSP store (Xenogears!). |

Looks amazing to be honest. And I approve of the "over the shoulder view".
