This Tuesday, the PlayStation 3 exclusive game, Resistance 3 launched across the US. The 3rd entry on the PlayStation 3 is once again developed by the long time PlayStation veterans at Insomniac Games. This time, gamers take control of Joseph Capelli who sets on a cross-country trip to New York while battling the forces of the Chimera. Like most AAA PlayStation 3 titles, you can expect native 3D support with PlayStation Move and PlayStation Sharpshooter. Of course it wouldn’t be a true AAA title with a mention from Kevin Butler and this time, KB is riding the high horse to help the resistance.

If you’ve yet to pickup a PlayStation Move, Sony has also released Resistance 3: Doomsday Edition for $149 which includes:

  • Resistance 3
  • PlayStation Eye
  • PlayStation Move Controller
  • PlayStation Nav Controller
  • Sharpshooter
So what are the critics saying about Resistance 3? Here is what Insomniac Games posted via their Twitter feed:

 USAToday gives R3 3.5/4 Stars and calls it “the best in the series.”

Gamepro gives Resistance 3 a 4.5 / 5
