Resistance: Fall of Man More Than HD-DVD Can Handle

Resistance: Fall of Man

Insomniac Games is probably making the folks at XBox a little more nervous than usual. According to a spokesperson for Insomniac, their latest game Resistance: Fall of Man will take up 22 gigs of digital space, the reason being the addition of orchestral music and the use of high-res graphics.

This would be great and all…for PS3, that it – the competition’s HD-DVD can only take in around 15 gigs.

This PS3 launch game may just make XBox 360 people take notice, as the XBox 360 couldn’t even hold 15 gigs under normal circumstances. If a PS3 launch game is this big, when people have yet to discover just how far the PS3 can go, how much more can it do when developers have mastered the art of PS3 game making? This could very well lead to a lot of developments (both good and bad) in the third-party industry, especially if gamers will expect more content from every PS3 release, as opposed to XBox or Wii titles.

Worse still, Insomniac is out to beat XBox live, supposedly by making their games available for 40-man multiplayer. Those are fighting words, and let’s see if Insomniac can actually deliver.
