    Like FPS? then you'll love resistance!

    Resistance was one of the lauch titles for the PS3 in 2006, and a great title it is.

    Resistance is all about 'aliens' called chimera. they were humans but have been infected and have been muted into chimera using conversion centres. In just two months the chimera took over all of Europe and have arrived at England. Which is where the game kicks of...

    You play as Hale a solider who is trying to defeat the chimera with the rest of humanity. Right at the beginning of the game he gets infected but nothing happens... So this makes you want to play the game through to see how that works out....

    Resistance has good graphics for a first person shooter but considering its on a PS3 i cant shake the feeling that they could have been better (even some PS2 shooters look better). However graphics are still great from the AI teamates and all the different types of chimera and the environment and explosions look cool too.

    Sound is great with each gun making a different sound and the growls of the chimera and shouting and footsteps ect. What doesnt impress me however is the storyline and voice acting as Hale never says anything and there is proper cool lenghly cut scenes just a crappy (most of the time) black and white image or map with that woman talking.

    Gamplay is the best part of reistance, wherever you are in the game you will always be in an intence shootout with very good AI (which use cover and flank you).

    Resistance also has brillant online play which when played you can unlock loads of goodies (which i love) including ribbons, medals and even go up ranks and customise what your online character looks like.

    Replay value is here as hidden weapons can be found when you play the game through again and you can play through it again anyway to get even more goodies (skill points).

    There is a co op mode which is fun but isnt online which is kinds disappointing.

    resistance at times can be quite a scary game (i know i jumped when i was in a tight corrider and chimera jump out right in front of you and respawn behind you!!!)

    Overall reistance is a good quality game but it would have scored higher only if the story was more developed, if it had online co op and lastly i just cant shake the feeling more could be improved in this game...

      This game is one of my favorite FPS games.  Nathan Hale is my favorite character in this game because he plays a major part of the story.  The chimera race comes to invade the region of Europe, spreading around the world from there.  Nathan Hale and his squad is trying to stop the chimeras from taking over the world but throughout the game, Hale is half-chimera and half-human.  However, the chimera part gets worse as the story goes.. it's spreading like a virus and gets the worse out of Hale.  H...

      An old but acceptable and fun title which is well worth a look. 0

      It's currently 2010, and one might be forgiven for thinking that it’s a peculiar time to still be playing Resistance: Fall of Man. Resistance was a launch title for the PlayStation 3 in 2006 and it shows, which is a nice way of putting it. But chief of my concerns is whether or not a game is fun and enjoyable, and whether or not a game facilitates fun through its aesthetic and its gameplay. Despite Resistance’s age, it still manages to communicate that important three letter word.  Even with eve...
