Killzone 2 Talent Plays Role in Insomniac’s Next Game
We reported last month that a Senior Producer for Guerrilla Games had left to help design the next Metal Gear console game, Metal Gear Solid Rising. Now the Killzone 2 invasion continues..and this time, the war is coming to Insomniac Games’ Next PS3 Exclusive.
Connected Consoles discovered on Aaron Butler’s Linkedin page that the former Senior Designer for Killzone 2 is working on Insomniac’s next title at Insomniac North Carolina. Aaron joined the NC team in November and is ’designing the fun.’ He also helped out recently with Spec Ops: The Line for 2K Games.
This adds even more fuel to the fire that Insomniac’s next title is none other than Resistance 3. First, we had the billboard slip-up. Next we have the ‘Insomniac common sense schedule’ that has unfolded on the PS3: Resistance Game, Ratchet and Clank Game, repeat. Another clue is that 4 of Aaron’s 5 past games have been FPS. It’s safe to assume that their next game is Resistance 3. But you know what happens when you assume…
Rumor has it that Resistance 3 will be revealed at E3 this year. PlayStation LifeStyle will be there, so you’d better believe we’ll be reporting everything that goes down at the mother of all video game conventions.

Man, oh man, their offices are gonna explode with all the talent they’re stuffing in them. Yes, explode, and the shrapnel? You guessed it, Resistance 3 blu-rays slicing faces everywhere.
that’s great we all should know by now that insomniac is all for pushing the ps3′s power for resistance 3 (safe to assume graphic wise since he’s a designer). im wondering if this would change r3 gameplay a bit though since there’s a bit of a killzone touch (influence)?
I hope they change the graphics from R2. That game did not look as good as R1 to me. Way too cartoony with the gore. Just did not feel like I was in a struggle for my life from the same creatures as I did in R1.
I think Insomniac has taken a step back from the Resistance series and is trying to figure out what people thought R2 was missing. Personally, I love the games, even though I enjoyed R2 more than R1. Even though R2 gained better reviews than Halo 3: ODST, critics and fans hated on it. I can’t wait for R3!
I just hope the campaign is a little more involving. I was yawning even after the first couple areas in R2, and I still have never finished it. The online is fun as hell though. At least they have Killzone guys to help them out, I freaking LOVED the KZ2 campaign. It was a blast!
Mr. Butler is like Will Smith of the Development world. All I know is that Killzone2 and Resistence2 were the shit and Metal4′s controls put me off so hard I wanted to act like one of those dudes from the Gamefly commericals. All I want outta those developers to do is keep pushing and if the see a game like UC2 and are amazed then their next title needs to top that. I don’t mean copy but push the graphics or gameplay in there universe to the same level. If they found themselves pause that game just to take in the envorinment or to look at the main character’s face because they just wanted to take it in. Then when their making that next sequel, they should aspire to have their own titles invoke those same response.
resistance 3 with 256 player multiplayer will be epic. i already love the 60 player online in resistance 2
I have yet to complete Killzone 2, I can’t get past the bridge level as it’s way too hard though I’m looking forward to a Resistance 3 I do hope it does get announced at E3 as this has always been a great series for the PS3.
