entire review at above link

Summary:
Resistance is an exciting action game that successfully combines many of the best qualities from other great first-person shooters with its own spectacular visuals and a few novel twists.
The Good: Rock-solid design borrows the best aspects from the best first-person shooters; outstanding presentation, featuring great weapons and believable environments; replayable campaign pits you against an aggressive, fairly intelligent foe; fully featured multiplayer mode offers good variety and supports up to 40 players.
The Bad: Derivative visual style and gameplay is well crafted but mostly unoriginal; the campaign's story and characters aren't well developed; two-player cooperative mode isn't available online.


Oh and 9/10 on graphics... not bad for a launch title. Sounds like a good solid launch title for the PS3. Innovative no... Very good yes... Halo Killer... No way!

I did find this interesting...

Resistance's online multiplayer interface lets you easily find ranked or custom, unranked matches. It also includes support for setting up competitive clans, a "party" system for seeking out online matches together with your friends, and a "buddy" system for keeping track of which of your friends are online. You'll also rank up and earn special insignias based on your multiplayer accomplishments


Why oh why MS aren't you pushing for clan support in LIVE titles and using Halo2's party system?

Reading the review reminds me of Halo 3's limit on 16 players for MP. I think that's way too low. Maps are already big in Halo 2 and 16 players sometimes feel a bit lacking. Bungie should have gone to 24 at least.

I think 16 players will work just fine.

It will work fine--but that doesn't mean there isn't room for more. I enjoy playing 8v8's in Battlefield 2--that doesn't mean I don't like going into a 64 player pub. Granted--those maps scale and I wouldn't expect Halo's map designs to hold up to 64 players..but 24 is not a huge jump over 16.

You're right though, in the end, it will be fine.

8.6 is a great score..GS is just being a tad bit more realistic than some people.

They most definitely are Resistance is a good game, but by no means killer app quality.

It might be the ps3's cod2 for launch.

Every console needs a solid FPS at launch.

Take one 360, add some chopped PS3, stir in some Wii, a sprinkling of DS Lite. Enjoy :)

How many times do I have to mention this in forums for people to get the message. They have, it's in there. Future games will be using it. Unfortunately the Fall Update just rolled around too late for them to get it into Gears.

Well if that really means a "great game" then 360 has plenty of great games out there,but sonyfanboys has trashed 360 for all those kind of games that came below 90%.

Sakagauchi-san is the best developer! :)

Lost odyssey is my most wanted game.

Actually 8.6 really is a great score on Gamespot. But then again PDZ got a 9.0. I still don't think that PS3 games are getting that launch game bump that 360 games did--but that should make people here happy.

They aren't getting the launch bump because they aren't alone as next-gen games now.

Gametrailers gave it an 9.0, after giving Gears a 9.1.

Don't really know what to make of this..?

Well, personally, I think PDZ was a really great game. I think it deserved its 9.0, and it's even more apparent now when you have Resistance to compare it to. Its omissions, niggles and flaws are exactly the kind of things PDZ got right, right there at launch.

Sure, half of it looks covered in slime, but some levels still work as a showcase for next gen fancyness, especially the rooftops level. It also had online co-op, tons of paths through levels, a bunch of multiplayer modes, and it's frankly quite lengthy too, without resorting to copy/paste level design. It got lots of flak for looking downright weird in places, and suffice to say a lot of people didn't take to the art direction at all, but that's hardly reason enough to keep ripping into it still.

Oh and solo play is out of the question of course, what with its babysitter approach to just about everything.

Well yeah, I figured it was a good game, I don't like it as far as I've seen but that doesn't automatically mean it's a bad game, but I didn't expect it to be up there with Gears, which that score indicates.

And I personally don't think that's the case at all, and that's not the imrpession I got from any other review(ers) out there...

I actually did in the original thread! Though I still maintain the BS reasons for not reviewing MP and willy waving at EA was a bit lame, IMO. I'm still not convinced on this marking things down purely because "they don't innovate" malarkey either, but if they judge everything that way then fair enough.

I saw Casino Royale this week and thought it was awesome. It does some different things to previous Bond films, but none of these haven't been done before in other action films. Is that a lesser film because it's not "innovating"? Don't think so.

Also I concur with Simon on PDZ, I would play more co-op on that if I had friends who still had it and there wasn't a big pile of other stuff to play through. VP arrived today, NO MORE games for me till Lost Planet!

And one last point on Resistance that I think will be interesting in the long term. I'm keen to see how good (as in technically/lag good) the online is as more and more people get on it. The P2P approach Halo takes certainly scales well, but it can lead to a fair amount of laggy games, cheating and manipulation of connections.

If Resistance as the population ramps up delivers a more consistent experience (as it runs on servers) then I hope that prompts MS to look at things. We're paying for Live, we should get the better QoS. It will be a difficult comparison as I wouldn't expect the Resistance population to get anywhere near Halo 2's, but I'll be watching it for sure.

One simple reason, mods! Because of halo2 more people got mods in their xboxs than any other reason.
