A lot of modern games tend to come with extras now, but Sony
seems to have gone a little nuts with Resistance 3 now that it's gone gold.
While all these extras are technically just marketing material, if I were a new
PlayStation 3 owner it would be pretty cool nonetheless. The bonus
content that comes on all Resistance 3 discs includes game demos for
Killzone 3, MotorStorm Apocalypse and Infamous 3, as well as a slew of trailers
for upcoming games such as Uncharted 3. But where it gets a little odd is the
inclusion of various trailers for Sony films and music clips featuring artists
such as Ozzy Ozborne – what?
I'm all for marketing, especially considering amazing games like Bulletstorm
and Shadows of the Damned sell terribly
when the marketing isn't done well, if at all, but the sheer volume of material
included with Resistance 3 is bordering on ridiculous. The details of these extras
were announced alongside Resistance 3 going gold, which for those who don't
follow games often is when a game is finished and is now in the process of mass
production. A new trailer was also released – check it out below if you're
interested. I've already seen a good half hour or so of Resistance 3 and still feel
the game isn't quite for me, which is a shame since I love Insomniac's other series of
games like Ratchet & Clank.
