   Very cool. I’ve got to say I’ve ignored the last two Resistance games. I got Resistance 2 as a gift but never finished it. I just couldn’t get into it for some reason. The more I hear about 3 though, the more I think I’m ready to give it a go.

      The second one was a step down from the first, the changes they made took away alot of the unique features Resistance had.

      This third looks to return alot of the original features (weapon wheel! :)), so I can’t wait.

      Love the fact they are doing reversible covers, although I’m getting the Special Edition, so mine will be a steelbook, but as the article mentions more games should have this.

         Disagree, I think it depends on the order you play them. I played 2 first, and found the original difficult to control. Good plot, but not as pretty or interesting as 2.

   Now that’s a rare/lucky job for a graphic designer. We usually get bombarded with copy and logos in an effort to try and make it all fit 😉

      It’s actually nice to see some cover art that isn’t bombarded with developer/publisher logos all over it.

      It also looks very similar to the cover of a 500 page novel. Hardback too, none of that paperback crap.

   They’re doing something similar with the Ico/SotC collection, aren’t they?

   Oh cool. They actually went ahead with the Olly Moss artwork. I thought that was just concept.

   Well played!
