    Advantages Advantages Great graphics and sound, brilliant game play, and an absolute joy of a game

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Too addictive, may be a little violent for some.

    A few weeks ago I traded in my old Playstation 2 games console (and a large sum of cash) for a shiny new Playstation 3 (PS3) model. I was left with enough money to buy myself one game to go with it and after browsing the various titles on offer, I decided to go for Resistance - fall of man. The main reason I was swayed to choose this game is the fact that it was made by the very same people responsible for the fantastic Ratchet and Clank franchise (insomniac Games). So their first PS3 title with more power and speed at their disposal just had to be top notch. Basic Premise: The game is set in ... more

    Advantages Advantages Stylish visuals, brilliant AI, and thoroughly addictive gameplay

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Borrows from other shooters a lot

    Feeling suitably incensed over the late European release of the fabled PS3, I embarked on my Christmas visit to Washington DC with a certain sense of satisfaction. It was upon arriving at my brother's residence and seeing his newly acquired Playstation 3 that I finally discovered a use for him. With just under a week in the capital, my time was unfortunately limited, but my game of choice was Resistance: Fall of Man, Insomniac's truly thrilling, if a little predictable, launch title. Reminiscent of other shooters in this first-person action sci-fi genre, particularly Quake 4, Half Life 2, and ... more

    Advantages Advantages Great interaction with enviroment, Amazing graphics

    Disadvantages Disadvantages No bots on multiplayer mode.

    First glance Resistance fall of man has been described as Playstation 3s answer to Xbox 360s gears of war? However this game is much better than its rival. The proper use of next generation graphics can produce many a splendid thing such as resistance fall of man! This was the first game I purchased for my ps3 and consequently did not buy another game for 2 months it kept me gript and wanting more. The great arsenal of weapons and ability to interact with the environment deeply makes this one essential for every ps3 owner. Story line The overall story line left me expecting more from a very ... more

    Advantages Advantages Great Atmosphere Created, Super Detailed Graphics, Good Locations

    Disadvantages Disadvantages More Complex Missions?

    After buying my PS3 I wanted to settle down with a good game to see what it was all about, test the graphics and game play in comparison to the PS2. I can't remember who told me not to bother with this game and that was the reason it took me so long to buy it. If I could remember now I think a few stern words would have to be spoken because he/she just let me miss a few months before playing my favourite first person shooter of all time! The game is set in the time of World War 2, and looks at what could have happened if aliens had attacked humans instead of us attacking each other. You play ... more

    Advantages Advantages Great gameplay; imaginative weapons; superb campaign; magnificent story; quality online

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Perhaps graphics could be a little better

    The PS3 wasn't blessed with the strongest cast of launch titles. There was Ridge Racer 7, which 3 people bought, and Heavenly Sword, which was good, but only lasted 15 minutes, and, well...that was sort of the problem. Too many dull, forgettable, average games. Not enough to make your eyes pop out of your head and make you see the world in a different light. Not enough of what the console desperately needed. It was far from an easy birth for the black behemoth, what with all the pre-launch delays, criticism and 'over-priced rip-off' jibes. And all it had to fight off the critics as they ... more

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Rushed

    Resistance: Fall Of Man - The Ultimate Review Storyline: Resistance follows a US trooper called Nathan Hale. A group of aliens called the Chimera who are taking over Europe. Your aim is to re-gain control of the UK. The story begins with Nathan being infect by the Chimeran virus which will eventually turn him into a Chimera. As you progress through the game you begin to show some of the Chimera's traits. For example you begin to regeneate your health. Thats not all and I am not going to tell you because that would ruin it for when you acctually play the game. As the game continues and you win ... more

    Advantages Advantages Excellent Graphics, Enhanced AI, Easy to pick up

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not too challenging

    Resistance Fall of Man undoubtedly sets a new level in gaming on the PS3, with enhanced AI, more complex maps, graphical design that is incredibly realistic and sound that will blow you away (especially if hooked up to a surround sound or stereo speakers). The basic story is that you follow Commander Hale on a mission around England, following and joining with surviving humans to fight against a deadly virus called the Chimera that is turning humans into mutants. The storyline takes you all over Britain, discovering new things about the virus and helping you to save civilization. Although a ... more

    Advantages Advantages It's a FPS

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not a good one though

    I consider myself quite a gamer, since the days of Atari and my ZX Spectrum + 48k, and even now I own a Nintendo gameboy, X-Box, X-Box 360, Nintendo Gamecube, PS2, PS3 and PC. So as a gamer I have to ask myself am I being selfish? I wonder this because for a first person shooter, on the latest piece of gaming hardware, {PS3} I expected more. Even on lesser consoles there has been a few much better FPS {first person Shooter}. I am going to go out on a limb here and ask those that seem to think it's great, is it because it really is good? or is it the novelty factor of the PS3 and the fact that ... more

    Advantages Advantages Graphics and Gameplay.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages It's extremely addictive

    This is truly an amazing game, with revolutionary graphics and explosive game play. Therefore it is no doubt that it’s a headlining game for the PS3. Insomniac has created not only a game that oozes exciting gameplay but also a realistic world that you can lose yourself in for hours on end. The story You are an American Army Ranger, Sgt. Nathan Hale that has come to an invested Britain full of chimera, an insect/human species created by Russian scientists during World War 2. On your epic journey you encounter the deadly surge of chimera as well as more deadly larger creatures and ally humans ... more
