Resistance 2: the single-player campaign is basically finished

Insomniac Games' Resistance 2 has hardly been announced, and already we're getting a flood, nay, a wealth of information on the title. In this 1UP feature, we learn a lot about the state of the game and much to our surprise, the road to completion is not too far away. The feature mainly summarizes what we've learned so far about the different modes of play, the size of the online matches, the basic storyline and the enemies we'll encounter. We'll highlight some of the more important bits.

First off, new enemies. Enhanced Chimera with more form-fitting battle armor, because even aliens need to be fashionable and destructive. Boss battles will return, probably in response to some of Halo 3's gigantic monstrosities — one enemy towers 150ft above protagonist Nathan Hale. The single-player maps are, surprisingly, more or less complete and running in a rough state. Amazing that the game is technically "done" but not "cooked". It's like buying the turkey — you still have to marinate and roast it. But the turkey is there. The game's difficulty will change depending on you and your teammates' skill level. There's more, but really, you should read for yourself to see what piques your interest — and prevents us from revealing too much without your consent.
