Still the Best...

PSN@Home Writes: "The Playstation 3 has seen its fair share of good games, Metal Gear Solid 4, Uncharted 2, and God of War 3. But in my opinion, there is one game that out performs all the rest. There one game that I can go back to and have more fun than any other game that is currently on the market. That game is Resistance: Fall of Man."

Although as great( especially the 8 player co-op!) R2 was, it felt like a missed opportunity form insomniac. No doubt Insomniac will bring the best of both games into R3( R1's campaign + R2 MP).

syanara5818d ago

I liked resistance fall of man's competitive multiplayer more than resistance 2's but all I gotta say is what happened to meltdown? that gametype was awesome as well as conversion

Bobbykotickrulesz5818d ago

I don't know.

I liked Resistance but in my opinion it wasn't one of the best games this gen. The controls just seemed stiff and kind of forced. Reminded me of Counter Strike or something.

Still a good game, just not one of the best to me.

Tomdc5817d ago

I have yet to play a shooter i have enjoyed more than resistance:fom

Especially the feel of the bullseye. Swinging it around and getting a tag on somebody without even stopping the swing of the gun has to be one of the best feelings in a game ever! I love the weapons and how you dont have to look down a bloomin scope to be accurate. Then with R2 they tried to be like everybody else and lost man elements of what made the first one great :(

Marceles5818d ago

totally agree Eddy, both of those combined would make the absolute most perfect Resistance game...perfect FPS game period even

boysenberry5818d ago

Resistance: Fall Of Man had better multi-player and single player. The only thing better in Resistance 2 were the graphics and the online co-op (so damn addictive and fun!!). I hope R3 is more like R1. R1 is one of the best games this gen.

Aaroncls75818d ago

I could never like this game, I found it bland and boring. I like Insomniac; but this game never did it for me.

ShiNe-Box-5818d ago

Eddy, change it to: (R1's campaign&competitive + R2 Coop)

But yea, good to see another article recognizing Resistance 1.

R1 & TF2 are the only games that have been able to hold my attention for over a year.

ABizzel15818d ago

I think the campaign in R2 was good, it just had bad pacing, and a lack of deep story that R:FOM had. But I hope they bring back more aliens from R1 like the howler and that big bubble spitting spider, make R3 more monsterous this time.

madmonkey05818d ago

i agree, resistance is still one of the best games this gen, and i think it was the local co-op that made it even better.

dizzleK5818d ago (Edited 5818d ago )

i just finally sat down and beat resistance 2. my biggest problem with it was the extreme trial & error gameplay. i always felt like i almost had to kamikaze into an area just to see what was coming due to some truly piss poor enemy spawns and design choices. i also always found myself running out of ammo due to the 2 weapon limit.

that being said i LOVED the scale of it. when it was good it was very good. i thought the chicago and louisiana levels were very inspired and intense. this article definitely put me in the mood to play the first one again.

syanara5818d ago (Edited 5818d ago )

I did not like the scale of resistance 2 this might just be by preference though but I felt like an ant every time I played that game on or offline. like I said it might just be preference but with resistance 2 it almost felt like they took a close corners game and put it into a large area.

gunnerforlife5818d ago (Edited 5818d ago )

to tell you the truth i got bored of everything about R2s single player Mode and didnt even bother finishing it lol i just let my little bro finish it and i only went in for the cut scenes, it just didnt feel like there was a purpose to the story at all!! just run and shoot.

blazed135818d ago

i completely disagree with everybody here. i think both resistance games are not that good. especially pt. 2

food865818d ago (Edited 5818d ago )

well no offence but I disagree with you on part 1. Ill give it to you on 2 I hated 2 because I knew its potential after playing 1

It’s Time for Sony to Bring Back Killzone and Resistance

Sony is in the middle of an FPS crisis, but bringing back two much-loved PlayStation shooters could easily be the solution.

shinoff2183705d ago

I'd rather them focus on a rpg. Shooters can wait

just_looken705d ago

We have alot of rpg's but only cod for a AAA first person shooter unless you toss in xdefient but that is still fixing 2yr old beta issues.

We need more AAA fps games then rpg's

shinoff2183705d ago

Yea right. Theirs so many shooters on the market.

just_looken705d ago

@shin

Name 3 AAA fps games coming out this year

Cacabunga704d ago

I want Killzone yea, but as a gaas no buy!

Cacabunga704d ago

Yes we need some new FPS experiences.. COD is just not engaging enough. We want a Killzone back to the roots, not a Shadow Fall again..

Crows90705d ago

There's tons of RPG in the market too...what's your point exactly.

RaidenBlack704d ago

No Killzone or Resistance or Factions for you ... only Concord & FairGame$

Ironmike705d ago

No more rpg for a while would love a new resistance though

DarXyde705d ago

Agree on preferring RPGs though at this exact moment, it would be great to see more horror games. Another reason why Japan Studio closing is just tragic. Loved Siren.

just_looken705d ago (Edited 705d ago )

Fuck jim ryan japan studio did so much and helped alot with ports/localization

If they were around bloodborn would be possible like how they helped with demon souls ps4 finial fantasy port.

Horror games would be nice but the jim ryan axe job helped alot in killing playstation dev numbers/freedom and increased regulation with the new censorship crap.

1Victor705d ago

If Sony is bringing back a old shooter I would prefer Warhawk or better yet Starhawk

Rynxie705d ago

No thanks. Resistance and killzone were my all time favorite fps games. I completely dominated those games. I met good people, had a ton of fun and have a lot of fond memories. I don't want them to bring back these games, unless they tackle the cheating epidemic. I know I will absolutely hate these games, if I was to play them now, with all the effing cheating going on in fps games.

Psychonaut85705d ago

Bro the market is oversaturated with quality RPGs AND bloated shitty RPGs already.

Inverno705d ago

I honestly don't think we'll be seeing these anytime soon, if ever. Insomniac is officially on Marvel duty since it seems that all they're working on based off the leaks, and Horizon is more of what the casuals want these days. And I now I'll get a bunch of disagrees, but keep in mind that Resistance last got a game on the PS3 (2011) and Killzone was a launch title for the PS4 (2013). 10 years is a long time to make a game, if had any interest they would've done it by now, add InFamous to that list.

just_looken705d ago (Edited 705d ago )

Your right except the dates killzone mercenary was on ps vita 2013 same with resistance burning skies back in 2012

Good-Smurf705d ago

Both of those games are either made by smaller B team or completely different developer.
Killzone Mercenary developed by Guerilla Cambridge which is now defunct.
Resistamce Burning Skies wasn't made by Insomniac but by Nihilistic Software also defunct after the failure of CoD Black Ops Declassified.

just_looken705d ago

@good i know i never said they were

I mentioned them as they were the last games under that ip well killzone was last on ps4 but still even though they are different devs they led to the lose of the ip.

I highly doubt they made up for there budget cost even killzone on ps4 had low sales for such a large ip at the time.

shinoff2183705d ago

Infamous should atleast get remastered. I'd be cool with that

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH705d ago

Resistance 3 turned me off to the series but I’d love a reboot. KillZone I think can stay dead. Give me a new Resistance like 1or 2 and I’ll be happy.

JEECE705d ago

Except Resistance 1 and 3 were far more similar, 2 was the outlier. 3 was a great return to form after 2 changed so many things from the first game.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH705d ago

I didn’t like 3 and I didn’t find it similar to the first game.

Moegooner705d ago

2 was the best resistance game.

Michiel1989705d ago

agreed, the co-op was my fav in 2

Michiel1989705d ago

I'll keep saying it, have Bungie make a new resistance game, a match made in heaven. Although I imagine Bungie would be too proud to take over an existing IP.

Huey_My_D_Long705d ago

I honestly never cared or liked killzone. Huge resistance fan though. I remember so many nights playing melee only on USS Lexington, and I like the alt history vibe.

InUrFoxHole705d ago

Liked KZ more but both those games are better than MAG

Huey_My_D_Long704d ago

Facts.
Since I'm down memory lane, I also wish for remaster of Warhawk.

P_Bomb705d ago

I’ve been barking up that tree for years. 😢

OtterX705d ago

Keep barking, boy! Keep barking! Never give up hope. ;)

PlayStation 3 Games That Desperately Need a PS5 Remaster

The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.

OtterX795d ago (Edited 795d ago )

Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!

Rude-ro794d ago

I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.

darthv72794d ago

Funny you mention that... my son wanted to play some PS3 games in 3d on my PS tv and he was blown away by how good KZ3 was. It really was a great addition to the game. Im surprised there have not been more 3d games from that era being ported to the PSVR/VR2.

_SilverHawk_794d ago

resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword

Cacabunga794d ago

Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2

Profchaos794d ago (Edited 794d ago )

Killzone trilogy in VR would be amazing bonus points if they offer shadow fall.

There was a psvr1 Killzone project that supermassive was working on at one stage which wasn't up to scratch and Sony brand it back in house I was hoping we would see that on psvr2 eventually.

Personally I'd love to see some more love or acknowledgement of psvr2 from Sony in general it was a expensive headset and Sony barely acknowledge it's existence

seanpitt23794d ago

The amount of work needed to remaster these games wouldn't be beneficial on a financial and business sense.. MGS4 would probably be the best bet as it would need the least amount of work!

Iceball2000795d ago

YEAAASSSSS! I miss this franchise and wanna play it so bad again.

Father__Merrin795d ago

The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer

InUrFoxHole795d ago

The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.

Marcus Fenix795d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989794d ago

That's what Bungie should make, Ill keep saying it until it happens

1Victor795d ago (Edited 795d ago )

Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱

Ranking the Resistance Games From Worst To Best

While it's been on ice for as long as it was around, the Resistance franchise has no shortage of quality.

Knushwood Butt1471d ago

My take:

Single player
3, 2, 1

Multiplayer
3, 1, 2

Overall
3, 2, 1

I beat the lengthy single player in 1 multiple times and spent hours in the online too. Plus 1 featured my home town! Special mention to the audio design in 1: playing that with surround headphones blew me away.

Note: I have the platinum for Resistance 2.

Eidolon1470d ago

Resistance 1 MP will always be my favorite. Call it nostalgia or whatever, but that was my jam, felt more balance, natural.

Miraak82 1470d ago

i have the platinium too , 10k kills in online ranked matches was no joke . Took me 3-4 months straight grinding but it was fun . To put it in perspective you only got like 25 kills per match if you were 1st place every match that's at Least 400 matches in 1st

Sciurus_vulgaris1471d ago

I only played the 3 main Resistance titles. My ranking would be;
1. Resistance 3
2. Resistance: Fall of Man
3. Resistance 2

GoodGuy091471d ago

Man I loved 3's campaign. Another gem stuck on the ps3 and who knows if insomniac will go back to the franchise.

fr0sty1470d ago

Resistance, Warhawk, MAG, Motorstorm, there's so many first party gems on PS3 that Sony has just left to die...

P_Bomb1471d ago

Never played Burning Skies but I still have Retribution.

monkey6021470d ago

Burning Skies was about 3 hours long and rather inconsequential. You haven't missed anything

porkChop1470d ago

Honestly, Burning Skies was shit. There's no two ways about it. At first I thought it looked terrible, then I second guessed myself. Big mistake.

darthv721469d ago

Retribution has this really cool feature where you could use a PS3 to link a controller to it and play. So if you had a 2000 or 3000 hooked to a tv, you can use a real controller. All of this predates the PSP Go's ability to sync a sixaxis to it via bluetooth.

Yui_Suzumiya1470d ago

Resistance 3 was shocking and brilliant. Loved it.
