I haven't played Resistance 3 outside of the beta and a demo. I loved Resistance 2 though. Those were some pretty epic matches I played. I seemed to die a lot in the first game though. I'm really going to miss this stuff.

I hope it ends up like when Halo 2's servers were shut down. A small group of hardcore players holding on until the end.

This is very sad news for everybody that still likes getting together on those servers. This, however, is why I'm not a huge fan of trophies and achievements for multiplayer games. I know it takes money to continue maintain multiplayer serves and things of that nature but once these servers go down, and you're a fan of unlocking all trophies or achievements, you're no longer able to do so. I have steered clear of a few games for precisely this reason simply because I know that because of the availability I have to play games, I won't be able to get all of them. Games like Call of Duty or Halo 3, Halo more so than Call of Duty, have these achievements and keep me from getting that perfect score that I want to get. I'm a perfectionist so I know it's not that big of a deal to most people but when these games finally go down, where do you go from there. Most would say that players have enough time to achieve those trophies or achievements and I'm sure it's a small group that doesn't get to play as often as others, but it is still somewhat of an inconvenience. As I've said before, I know it takes money to keep the servers going and in the end, the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. I've never been a big proponent of multiplayer achievements and this is the biggest reason why for me. Hope these fans find a new home soon!

And the world said, "yeah, whatevs". Resistance is fun, but it ain't that great. I had to force myself to finish the first one half way through because it just got sooo tedious. The second game was a for reals improvement, and I could actually play it and have fun for the majority of the game. The third game was also pretty fun, but it was much more linear and generic-ish. They're all pretty good games, but I think the main reason people like them is that they're Playstation exclusives, and everyone knows that 'Sony is innovate'.

This is why devs should never make trophies/achievements that require online play to get. Things move on. Servers shut down. Now people will never be able to get any online related trophies for 2 and 3. That's a shame.

this is such terrible news I LOVE RESISTANCE SO MUCH it sucks that no one cared for this game

and it seems like ted price and insomniac didnt care for it anymore... tear tear.

Wow this sucks. Halo 2 was older than all of these and its servers lasted longer. Sony seems way more cut throat about servers than most.

wonder what will happen to the IP, hope they give it some love soon

I loved Resistance 2's multiplayer, those matches were huge. I've got a lot of great memories staying up real late playing matches with my friends. Switching between KZ2 (when that came out) and Resistance 2. Good times.

Such a shame that Resistance's servers are going down. First MAG, now this.

That's a shame.

Like no one plays it anymore anyways, lol

Its a shame to see the online mode to go offline after several years, but, then again, space needs to be made for things to come in the future.

This is why Titanfall cannot be run on Sony servers. Sony cannot afford to keep them running for more than a few years at a time.

I thought that Resistance multiplayer was awesome I just never got on much because I had other games to play and forgot about it sucks that they are taking it down considering all of the COD game's servers are still online and some of the games aren't that great at all. Disappoint.

Biggest problem with console games tbh. That by users not having the ability to host their own private servers, dedicated servers. Risk of it shutting down is always looming. Shame Sony couldnt hire IBM or Cisco whatever, whoever. To do it third party wise. Or allow users to do it.

Oh man, I had a lot of fun with that series, makes me a little nostalgic, might need to go just do a quick play of it tonight. Loved the first one the most, it was just that great in my mind but still, a fun franchise that I just was super passionate about.

I'm always surprised to see how long MP servers stay active. The single player of all three games was great, but the MP of the second one was atrocious (only notable because of the fact that the games had the highest player count of anything on PS3, until MAG came along and blew that away), and the third game's MP was an unusually good COD clone, but at the end of the day, that's all it really was.

I love resistance 3 multiplayer

Ah crap.
