Playstation Blog has just dropped enough new information on Resistance 3 to make a Chimera do a back flip. Let’s start with the release date. The game will release first in the US on the 6th of September this year, then the 9th in the UK and Europe. It seems we have a lot to look forward to later this year. Those who wish to pre-order Resistance 3 will have the following bonuses to look forward to.
