Mysterious countdown on Resistance 2 viral site
by Alan Tsang 
{ Jul 15th 2008 at 11:15AM }
A countdown to what appears to be July 22nd at 12 noon PST has appeared on the Resistance 2 ARG website projectabraham.com. Not much else has changed since the last update to the site. Though the Blackout portion of the site is now accessible directly via the logo right above the countdown. What could the countdown lead to? Chimera attack? Or more information on beta codes? We will find out in about a week!
[Thanks, Jonas!]

Countdown to next episode? Beta?

Quite obviously the project abraham thingie is concerning the co-op part of the game, and the 6-7 subjects are the different classes/characters you will be able to play.
Or what do you think?

Installing yet another media player just to watch this? No thanks.

it's a great stream and the install only took about 30 secs
also, the media player doesn't try to take over your computers preferred player, it isn't even a programme on the actual computer, it is only a web player, and i wholeheartedley reccomend it
oh a more related note getawarjob.com looks like a place to signup for resistance beta, i have.

I'm kidding - before any touchy people can't take a joke and starts ranting about the usual Sony Vs. MS nonsense.

resistance 2 on the 360? :P i wouldnt be surprised.
SoCoolCurt (PSN: KillaKornbread) @ Jul 15th 2008 12:15PM
Sony owns Insomniac and publishes Resistance if memory serves. so not happening this time. thats why we need strong first party games because we obviously cant keep the third party guys from wandering over to the MS camp.
Brodie-san @ Jul 15th 2008 12:17PM
I was thinking the same thing. What happened to my faith in Sony ? Oh yeah, yesterday happened.
Come on Sony. We're put our faith in you. It would be nice if you rewarded that faith.

A countdown that started at 3:60 or a countdown to delay....i hate sony now... i hope e3 sony conference make me love my ps3 again. But im pretty sure theyll reply 2007 e3 conference... Home, LBP, Resistance 2. adding movies, addons for home....nothing new
nick @ Jul 15th 2008 12:43PM
will E3 still be going on at that time? maybe its got something to do with that.
sean @ Jul 15th 2008 12:44PM
sony doesnt own insomniac. but sony owns resistance IP and ratchet and clank IP. so only way insomniac would have a 360 game if it was a new IP. but they wouldnt do that becuase they arent capcom or square enix who just love money.
Nick @ Jul 15th 2008 12:52PM
Don't get your hopes up. It's a countdown to another video.
Tsion @ Jul 15th 2008 1:37PM
It's a new trailer to the Resistance movie they are putting out, which then ties into the Chimerans being the predecessors to the Cylans in BattleStar Galactica!
Nah, most likely an update to the site or just another video on the games story or new in game Hale footage.
-Or, maybe-
Another site in their viral marketing scheme! They have 2 now, and remember to get your influenza shots people.

My guess is a demo
