New Doom 3 For Xbox 360 And PlayStation 3 Supports Head-Mounted Displays 
Far Cry 3 And The Stranger In A Strange Land Let’s talk a little bit about Resistance’s smaller, but not so small brother. It’s got a new 3rd person view which is a departure from what we’ve played on PlayStation 3. It’s got 8 player online matches which can be pretty fun to play on a handheld. And for it being a PSP game, it gosh darn beautiful. Is this going to make PSPs fly off store shelves? not likely, but we’ll just have to wait and see. A few screens after the jump.
PlayStation Portable owners, you’re about to get a bit more value our of your copy of Resistance: Retribution. If you also own a copy of Resistance 2 for the PlayStation 3 — and if you’re actually going to grab Retribution, there’s a good chance you’ll have one — connecting your PSP to the PS3 will “infect” your copy of Retribution.
Sony is adding rumble support to the PSP, courtesy of the DualShock 3. Using the new “PSP Plus” feature in games like Resistance: Retribution, owners of both the PSP and PlayStation 3 will be able to forego the portable platform’s analogue nub for a better control experience.
I hung at Sony’s swanky booth (there were blue lights and white shag carpets, ooh!) to take a look at the just-announced Resistance: Retribution for PSP, coming in Autumn 2009. They let me look, but not touch; nonetheless, I still got to pick the brain of assistant producer Caley Roberts to find out more about the title.
Nathan Hale doesn’t feature in Retribution at all — instead, we’ve got a new character named James Grayson, a Private in the British forces.
Backstory on the game is that Grayson’s brother, an RAF pilot, gets shot down, and Grayson goes in to look for him — and finds him on a table, the Chimera’s newest conversion project. This means, of course, that Grayson’s got to kill his own bro, and this makes him into a vengeful Chimera-slaughtering machine. He goes AWOL on a rampage, gets bagged for treason, and that’s where the game starts.
Sony’s Bend studio is currently working on Resistance: Retribution, coming to PSP in Spring 2009. After showing that title, a third-person shooter faithful to the first game, Sony’s Jack Tretton casually dropped a few more:
LocoRoco 2, Patapon 2, NBA 09: Inside, Super Stardust Portable, Buzz! Master Quiz, Valkyria Chronicles and Midnight Club: Los Angeles Remix.
