    Man, this game looks great. Check out this new shit from CES :-D Note that it's all off-camera, so it looks kind of shitty at parts, although you can clearly see how amazing all of the action is through the muck. Also note the seamless quick-loading from checkpoints. You don't get to see the new aiming system for the game much because the demonstrator was using a DS3 controller (as seen at the end of the first video). The gameplay is in the Infected Mode, which is made clear by the regenerating health. The last movie is an interview on the Infected gameplay.

    I'm doubtful about this game. The aiming system sounds kinda weird, and I won't be able to play Infected(don't own a PS3). I won't be able to pick this up on release anyway, so I guess I'll wait for player reviews and such.

    Looks okay, the aiming does look a big weird to me. Graphics look nice, though. Camera looks like it could be a problem for close-range combat.

    Looks interesting. I think the aiming decision, as long as it works, is brilliant considering the PSP limitations. I just can't get very excited about his because Resistance 2 killed almost all the interest I could have in the series.

    Meeeh, I'd rather just play R2. Guess it's not really for me though, since I dont really ever do the whole handheld thing.

    Well despite the sceptics I thought it looked really impressive. The name "Grayson" for (presumably) the protagonist I'm not so keen on but as a big fan of the Resistance series I'll certainly be picking this up.

    And I'll be playing with a Dualshock too I presume.

    The studio is very talented and it looks like this is going to be a pretty good game.Being able to play with a normal controller is a pretty cool feat as well, but even on the PSP alone without one, I know Bend can make this work very well.

    Looks cool, but not amazing. I have hopes though that this will be another reason to finally play my PSP. I needs a workout considering the last time I used it was last March for Patapon.

    So many people are not aware of the magic hands possessed by Bend :-(

    On the bright side it will stay true to the PS3 games if it plays like shit."
    Your insight is definitely taken to heart. Now, go troll elsewhere.

    Watch the last video. The aiming doesn't look as smooth in those videos because it's not using the new targeting system designed specifically for playing it on the PSP. The guy there was trying to play it with the Dualshock and sucking balls at it.

    Infected is an extra mode that can only be unlocked by connecting Retribution to a PS3 with R2.
