Well, this just proves that the game isn’t that bad, like as I stated in the article I wrote. According to The Canadian Press, James Bond 007: Quantum of Solace is the second most rented game in Canada on both the 360 and PS3. The game is only second to Resistance 2, on the PlayStation 3, and on the 360 Gears of War 2, which isn’t bad for a movie game. The game is also number one on the Nintendo Wii in Canada. The movie was released two days ago in theaters in the US and was given some very high review all over.

One of Sony’s upcoming PSP games, Resistance Retribution, will use a newly developed technology called “PSP Plus.” So what is “PSP Plus” and why does it sound like “WiiMotionPlus”? According to the guys over at Joystiq, PSP Plus is a new function that will allows players of Retribution to connect their systems to the PS3, in order to enable use of PS3 wireless controllers. Using the DualShock will enable dual-analog control in the game. In addition, rumble will be supported. Other games may be able to potentially utilize PSP Plus — however, it is currently a Retribution-only tech. And to answer the other question I really do not know why they call it “PSP Plus” it’s just the name, or it could be because it adds to the PSP.

Today, we got some information on the games D-pad control system, which is much like the system that was used in Gears of War. This system will be fully optional and it uses the left stick and right stick much like in any normal TPS, Third person shooter. This system allows you to strafe left or right, and manipulate the camera and here’s how it will work. LT will ready the weapon for shooting and RT will fire your weapon. While in D-pad mode you cannot move or you can barely move. We also can confirm to you that some old BOW’s from the pre-RE4 era will make and return in this game.

We got some information Resistance 2 episode of GameTrailers TV.Here is the break down of information from the episode.

• Ted Price said Insomniac is doing a lot more with the story this time around.
• Hale not only fights the Chimera, he has internal issues to solve.
• The story will be told from Hale’s prespective.
• Nathan Hale knows he has 19 hours left to live, but Ted Price did not reveal if he himself predicted it. When asked if someone else told him, he couldn’t tell.
• The biggest boss in the game is 300 feet tall (91.44 meters). There are a lot of big bosses throughout the game.
• Chigaco in the game has been overrun by Chimera and is abandoned for a few years now, so it has a "ghost town" look.

• New enemy in Resistance is is the Grims, a half converted Chimera. They do not use a weapon, as they are a melee enemy.
• When we see the Chigaco sequence Hale doesn’t have a lot of time to live, so the battles there are going to be a bit wild.
• The game starts where Resistance 1 left off, but we actually begin the journy in London, where we see the opening cinematic of Nathan Hale. The story then jumps two years after the Chimera invasion began.
• The game is mostly set in the U.S., but we will get to see other locations as well. Ted Price said we will see Chimera architecture.
We don’t actually play as Nathan Hale in the co-op mode, but other characters. Up to eight people will be able to go through a unique adventure. There is a class system:

Medic – Responsible for healing.
Special Ops – Damage control.
Soldier – Responsible for the main fighting.
• The co-op mode will be played in the Red Woods, United States. It’s a location that provides contrast from the urban location.
• There is crossover between the SP and Co-op stories.
• Insomniac Games have been running 60 player games for a while now, and Ted Price said it’s feeling good.
• The multiplayer mode features a "Dynamic Objective System" that’s giving the squad you join a specific objective to accomplish.
• The battles are spread widely as not all 60 people are going into the same direction shooting people, what Insomniac Games did made sure all the squads get different objectives, and those objectives keep you in different parts of the map.
• The multiplayer mode will not feature any map from the SP, Insomniac actually design unique MP maps. We will see the American structures in the background, but in a "twisted way", Ted Price says.
• We will be able to play with fewer people in the multiplayer.
• We will see the Chimera.
• Resistance 2 is a lot more realistic from the first game.
• Another new enemy is the ‘Kamilian’, who can actually make himself totally invisible. One hit from this enemy will kill you.
• Every level in Resistance 2 will feature different enemies.
• Weapons – The XR-005 Hailstorm will not be coming back because the team needed room for more
weapons. Resistance 2 features a two weapon system.
• There are no vehicles in multiplayer mode.
• Rachel Parker and Hale will not enter a romantic relationship throughout Resistance 2. In fact, • Parker will not be in Resistance 2 at all because she’s back in England.
• GameTrailers will show the world premiere trailer of Resistance 2 right before E3. The trailer might answer some of the questions we are all asking.
