PS3 in motion

Also on the action front was Insomniac Games withResistance: Fall of Man.Formerly known as I-8, Resistance is a sci-fi first-person shooter that pits the player against what appear to be alien stormtroopers and creepy-crawly bug creatures. With its dark tone and visuals, it looks a little like Black would if Black let players launch swarms of glowing missiles at sinister figures in alien armor.

Insomniac didn't exactly say what the game would be, although the blimp that floated by at the end with a bigRatchet & Clanklogo on the side made it pretty clear.

After graduating from college in 2000 with a BA in journalism, I worked for five years as a copy editor, page designer and videogame-review columnist at a couple of mid-sized newspapers you've never heard of. My column eventually got me a freelancing gig with GMR magazine, which folded a few months later. I was hired on full-time by GamesRadar in late 2005, and have since been paid actual money to write silly articles about lovable blobs.
