From the PSblog:

"As development on the game is wrapping up in here in Burbank, and the last few bugs are hunted down and squashed, we wanted to make an announcement we're very excited about. Since Resistance: Fall of Man, one of the biggest feature requests for the game was that we implemented split-screen online play. We are happy to announce that Resistance 2 will feature 2-player split-screen play for both competitive play as well as our 8-player online co-op campaign! Now you won't have to stop leveling up your medic just because your friend is over!"

Are you waiting for your R2 (Resistance 2) Beta code to hit your email box? If it hasn't yet it won't.

Well, In a recent sticky post at www.myresistance.net, their moderator has created a thread for those that haven't received their email containing the Beta code. The moderator says that if you haven't gotten the email by now (12am 10/17/08) there is a problem. If you haven't gotten your code "THEN POST".

It seems to be a problem with those that redeemed a Gamestop pre-order code over a week ago.

Playstation.Blog writes: "Heya, it's been a while since I've been seen around these parts as James Stevenson, Bryan Intihar and the others at Insomniac have been doing most of the Resistance 2 posting as of late. Along with my return to the blog, I bring a few announcements with regards to R2:

* Today, October 16th, the public beta for Resistance 2 will begin in North America. The beta will offer gamers a glimpse at Resistance 2's online competitive and co-op modes ahead of the game's launch on November 4th. We will be admitting players in two waves: a Premiere wave which includes those that pre-ordered at GameStop, individuals who subscribed to QORE for one year and/or bought the episode featuring Resistance 2 and a recent contest from GamePro.com. Those of you in the Premiere wave should be receiving an email with a registration code between now and tomorrow afternoon. A second wave is starting in the middle of next week, and you apply to be a part of it by going to beta.myresistance.net once the site goes live (later tonight). For those of you across the pond in Europe, the public beta will also begin next week."

"The UK Resistance 2 public beta will kick off on Monday 20 October and will run through to 13 November, Sony has confirmed to CVG.

Initial access keys for the beta - around 7000 - are being given out via the internet, but there's every chance more could be made available a little later.

The US public beta kicked off today, so it's all go over the pond. If any of our US readers could tell us exactly what's in the beta, that would be jolly nice of you."

Playstation.Blog writes: "Hi everyone, my name is John Garvin, co-director of SCEA's Bend Studio, and I wanted to give everyone a quick update on Resistance: Retribution. Chris Reese (my co-director at the studio) and I are in Tokyo this week presenting Resistance: Retribution at TGS. After our game was revealed at E3 in July, we got a lot of questions about connectivity between Resistance: Retribution and Resistance 2 on the PS3. We're pretty excited to announce that yes, we will be providing additional game play and features if you connect R:R to R2! Here's how it works."
