It's a first person shooter with pretty decent graphics but game play not as great as some others. I didn't get this when it first came out with the ps3. Good thing I waited because I just picked it up last week for 1/3 of the original price.
pretty good plot to go along with the smooth gameplay fun first person shooter game.
Great Game and it was delivered right away without any trouble, i recommend this seller
Though you might get sick of the small music interlude when you die, especially in later levels. While I wish the co-op was online as well as with the single player campaign rather than a separate file, the online in this game is quite a blast.Resistance: Fall of Man in terms of a story has a bit more weight than the sequel did but the frequent cutscene interruptions just when things are getting more intense slightly annoy. The detail on the Chimera themselves as well look quite good and the variety is also welcome but as a launch title that shows the power of the PS3, this doesn't have the wow factor of Tools of Destruction has.Sound/Music: Like a lot of WWII shooters, heavy on the military style percussion, trumpet and big epic flavors during the bigger firefights. As for voice acting, the main draw is the VA for Rachel Parker who acts as a narrator and she's very good at bringing you in to the action rather than just a plain old "storyteller" during cutscenes.
Rather a different kind of force raged through Europe; that of the Chimera, an alien (or genetic creation. This ingenuity even goes down to the grenades which adds 2 types other than the traditional frag: the hedgehog which fires a large group of spikes to impale enemies and the air-fuel grenade which can create a flammable vapor which incinerates nearby enemies. The control scheme is a little funky and I had to switch shoulder buttons around to make it more comfortable but my least favorite thing is having your aim be the right analog which like Killzone 2 never feels as comfortable as using the Left Trigger buttons and it's somewhat disorienting to reload during a zoom in since it goes back to a zoom-in when you maybe just want to return to normal view and more than once I died because I couldn't get out of a zoom look quickly enough. Up to 40 players with your standard Deathmatch and Team DM, Capture the Flag and Bombing variances are here but the battles are so frantic that it's like a huge playground where everyone's in the thick of it. Turns out the PS3 is actually a quite serviceable game console and one of the more premier titles that was released at the time of launch was "Resistance: Fall of Man", a WWII shooter with an intriguing premise brought to you by the studio who made "Ratchet and Clank".
Other areas however are a bit hit-or-miss with up close textures looking a bit bland while things far away look pretty remarkable and some cool "sci-fi spaceship" designs near the end of the level. Each weapon has an alternate fire which is specific to that gun. I don't know )race that conquered Russia and Europe incredibly quickly and sets their sights on England. Back in late 2006, the Playstation 3 launched a year after the Xbox 360 and the Nintendo Wii and it was met with a share bit of indifference.
it does add some good incentive to experiment. Your typical plasma gun Bullseye can "tag" an enemy so that all gunfire will zero in on that dude specifically or the Augur which can fire through walls but also set up a bulletproof shield temporarily. And since enemies are incredibly good shots, this makes it a pain when 4 or 5 get the surprise on you and even headshots don't down them immediately so it makes managing the battlefield stressful.Oop, almost forgot multiplayer. Snipe some dudes from afar, lay down explosive goo as traps, and more, having a full inventory to choose from helps you with any situation as opposed to the sequel where the 2-weapon-only scheme made you go "do I bring this or that one."Like the Ratchet and Clank games, Insomniac loves to brainstorm really messed up weapons. With the requisite intel to collect and other difficulties to tackle, Fall of Man is a good game to check out though strangely, Insomniac seems to really pull out some wonders when they do the Ratchet and Clank stuff.
First there was the price at 599, then there was the launch titles which were good but there wasn't that one Halo or Mario 64 that said "THIS is why you're spending all that money so you can play ". How's the game. And like Resistance 2, it's a "learn by death" game where the more you play, the more you figure out your strategies by what NOT to do such as blindly going in quickly or not paying attention to one key area. And best part of all. My favorite though is the Fareye which can slow down time so you can shoot enemy heads more accurately.
Instead of being limited to 2 guns, the game offers a weapon wheel where all the weapons you found will stay with you till the end of the game and though some incredulous thinking kind of makes it funny (a guy can fit a sniper rifle, missile launcher, and at least 7 other guns in his pocket. No noticeable lag whatsoever and haven't experienced one disconnect. But since spawn points are within a gigantic square as it were, you have to be on your toes a lot more since you can spawn a corner away from 3 dudes aching for some kills. You have your squad members occasionally with you (who die too frequently and too quickly), you alone against a legion of troops, vehicle sections where you command a tank, a jeep and a really cool vehicle later on as well as guns and grenades but Resistance mainly does one thing differently and that's regarding your arsenal.
One complaint that I have about the equally-fun Killzone 2 online component is that the maps start you at one end while enemies spawn at the other and you end up meeting in the middle. Good but not completely excellent but does its job admirably.Story: It's 1951 and World War II never happened. It gives a bit more interest than just simply "oh hey look, another assault rifle type, whoopee".However, I do have a couple of complaints. Hm).
But the Americans, like the real World War II, shows up later and among the soldiers is Nathan Hale whose missions will take him deep into Chimeran territory to hopefully wipe them out.Graphics: Resistance in terms of framerate is incredibly smooth with barely any problems in terms of slowdown, jitteryness or screen tearing and such which is quite a feat considering the battleground can be quite chaotic. Nathan Hale probably has more lines of dialogue than Insomniac has games however which makes him a strange hero, bad*** enough but not much of a character.Gameplay: The meat of this is an FPS and there's not much else to it then that.
A fun game to pass the time. The game feels very much like Doom to me. It starts out slow, but becomes more difficult quickly.
