Hi. I’m Dan, the Producer for Resistance 2 in Europe. I just wanted to post a follow-up to last Thursday’s US blog update from Bryan Intihar (he of Insomniac Games fame!) about the two new free Resistance 2 multiplayer skins.
Originally, these were scheduled to launch on June 11th in the SCEE region but I’m now pleased to announce that, thanks to the good people in the Store team, we’ve brought that date forward to this Thursday, June 04! Not quite a simultaneous launch I know, but as close as we could get. Hope you enjoy them! Hoping to see lots of Grims and Dr Malikovs facing off online on Thursday night.
If you haven’t already, check out the new Resistance Space in PlayStation Home - this went live a couple of weeks back and check out this video of the game!
Don’t forget that game launching is now supported for Resistance 2 from PS Home, so it’s a good way to meet up with your friends and party up for multiplayer.
Cheers,
Dan

They are free, just as in the US. Whoops, should have mentioned that in the original post. I’ll see if we can get that edited. Good point!

We (Denmark) already got Resistance 2 multiplayer skins back in march – are these different?

The Grim and Malikov skins were not among the multiplayer skins that were released earlier in the year.

I would play it but my co op rank for my special ops is stuck on 29!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i would play it but he never levels up even if i get points. This only occurs on my psn account and its really annoying – i want to play it but because its broken it stops me from enjoying the game. I really did like it
its so annoying when you put all that time in and your 1 level away from top rank…..:-(

Can you launch games anywhere in Home or does it have to be in the Resistance space?

Posted on 2 June, 2009 at 1:34 pm by elephant_stone
@ RagingAvatar
I think its anywhere but you need the disc in the drive (obviously)
Posted on 2 June, 2009 at 2:19 pm by Daniel Brooke
@RagingAvatar
elephant_stone is exactly right. You don’t have to be in the Resistance Home space to game launch, but you will need your Resistance 2 disc in the PS3.

Look at that! Thanks for the update will check it out.
You mentioned that it wasn’t a real simultanous release but could you explain why that wasn’t possible?
Thanks in advance!

Excellent news! I’ve just started running an event for Resistance 2 incorporating the game launching etc. The news about these free skins will certainly please the masses! Nice one.
