A Comparison: Resistance 3 vs. Killzone 3

"Having played both Resistance 3 and Killzone 3, I decided to do a comparison between these two games. I recently finished Resistance 3 and I have to say, it gave me a feeling of deja vu in certain areas of the game. Let’s compare some of the major things in these two games and I will discuss which game I thought was better."

Its funny. Killzone should hav exploited their atmoshere and story more. It felt contrived. Resistance shoulda consulted on graphics. K3 is still ning of graphics. And k3 is the most underrated multi this usar.

colonel1795395d ago

After the ending of Killzone 2, I thought K3 was going to be an epic all out war against the ISA and it would be extremely hard, or impossible to save themselves. Then came the game, and it had its moments, but definitely not the epicness, and the overwhelming feeling you get when see the ending of K2.

The same happened to me with GOW 3, after the ending of GOW2, I thought he third game would have epic battles with ALL the titans, fighting alongside kratos an would be really hard to kill the gods. Then it came out and although the game was still epic, and the bosses were extremely well done, it wasn't the epicness I imagined after seeing the ending of GOW2

Moral of the story: Either devs shouldn't end their games in so much epicness, or I shouldn't imagine so much more than it is realistic to deliver :(

TheMyst5395d ago

I have to agree with that. I thoroughly enjoyed KZ3, but it could have been much better especially after KZ2's ending.

50Terabytespersec5395d ago

Lets compare Graphics engines!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SageHonor5395d ago

I think Resistance 3 was the overall better game. I currently am kinda addicted to multiplayer. Cant wait for those new maps

clrlite5395d ago (Edited 5395d ago )

I didn't like the beta at first, but then I got addicted to it and realized it was awesome. I will be picking up the full game ASAP. I also prefer Resistance 3 over Killzone 3, although they both are good games.

gameguru5395d ago

I loved kz3, haven't got my hands on r3 yet

Alpha_Gamer5395d ago

KZ3 was very good, but Resistance 3 is far better in my opinion.

Actually, I just finished Resistance 3`s campaign and in terms of just being a straight up shooter campaign, it was the best I have played in a long time.

kaveti66165395d ago

" and in terms of just being a straight up shooter campaign,"

I'm waiting for these kinds of games to die.

I don't derive any pleasure from them anymore.

PCE5395d ago

Didn't play KZ3. KZ2 SP was fun somewhat but I am not a fan of shooters with regenerative health play. The multiplayer portion was fun though. R3 I am more sold on, because it has the kind of health system I wanted in a shooter. Regenerative health shooters I find too easy.

clrlite5395d ago (Edited 5395d ago )

I find it puzzling that anyone could disagree with you PCE, however, it doesn't necessarily ruin a game. I thought the health regeneration in the Resistance 3 beta was lame at first, but the multiplayer turned out to be VERY good and addictive(so I gave them a pass). I will be picking up the full game soon.

Also, the health regen is a bit more acceptable in Resistance 3 because it is a Sci Fi game.

PCE5395d ago

It's N4G. You cannot expect people to agree with anything that doesn't align with PS3 fanboyism. It doesn't matter if you like the PS3. If you don't like every holy exclusive on the PS3 you're not going to be a popular person on this website regardless if you're a PS3 fan. Even worse, if you're also a PC fan, an Xbox fan, and a Nintendo fan you're a disgrace to gaming, or so the saps at N4G say.

I understand regenerative health on the multiplayer. But in SP I don't really enjoy it. This is why I overlooked KZ3 and the majority of shooters from this generation. I am going to flat out say I am not a fan of Uncharted and Infamous either. Disagrees and bubble down votes are welcome. :)

LiViNgLeGaCY5395d ago

Nah, I agree with you PCE. I'm not too fond of regenerative health in FPS's myself. Though, I do love some games that have that health system.

And hey, what you like is what you like. Everyone likes certain games. Don't like Uncharted or inFamous? Trust me, I'm sure you're not the only one. That's your right as a gamer.

TheFirstClassic5395d ago

Uh, people who disagreed with you may not just be ps3 fanboys. Xbox doesn't even have a shooter with health packs like resistance. Or they may just disagree with your opinion.

There's too many games to choose from

No Metal geat solid 1,2,3,4?
No Resident evil?
No Silent hill?
No Midnight club 3?
No NfS Underground 2?
No Final Fantasy?
No Burnout 3?
No Dragon quest 8?
No Days gone?
No Ace combat?
No Tekken/Soul calibur?......
just from the top of my head

PS1 era was full of great RPGs, PS2 was racing generation i would pick top 200 and even that would be just a fraction.

FinalFantasyFanatic568d ago

30 is way too low over the entire history of Playstation, I just wouldn't be able to narrow it down that much, I would pick 100 at least.

Storm23568d ago

Yeah...really odd list. I get that it is personal preference and I love most of the games listed, but my list would definitely be different. I agree though, it would be incredibly difficult to come up with just 30.

lockedongamer1568d ago (Edited 568d ago )

I only picked first-party titles. Otherwise, I agree!

EDIT: Except for Days Gone, I don't get the love for it but you do you!

Chocoburger558d ago

I didn't like Days Gone either, it doesn't deserve to be on any best of list.

Resistance 3 is a Classic, 13 Years On

Insomniac Games' thunderous conclusion to its acclaimed first-person shooter series remains an under-appreciated work of art.

Sony needs to remake the trilogy on ps5

CrimsonWing69581d ago

I’d rather them do a new game in the world of Resistance.

Cacabunga581d ago (Edited 581d ago )

I honestly liked the first one most..
killzone 2 and 3 outshined Resistance 2 and 3 for me in every aspect.

Eonjay581d ago

I absolutely adored Resistance 3 but they do not NEED to remake this game. They should do something that they enjoy and if it is Resistance then so be it.

Mr_cheese581d ago

Loved resistance 3, played the whole thing on co op with the move controller and gun, was very different!

Resistance 2 online was the best

gamerz581d ago

Me too, but also on a 3D tv! R3 was one of the few games that got plastic rifle panning motion right.

isarai582d ago

Such a criminally underrated series, id love a remaster collection of the trilogy.

preciousdeath582d ago

Yes! ...and make them PSVR2 compatible.

Pedrof582d ago

Not a classic in my opinion ; a pretty mediocre PS3 shooter as far as I'm concerned, not bad, not the worst of the trilogy, but certainly not great. Killzone 2 was miles ahead of it (and of most FPSs even today as far as I'm concerned).

pwnmaster3000581d ago

Naw man.
Resistance 1 will always be GOATed for me.
I remember playing all night on multiplayer. Such a fun game.

P_Bomb581d ago

Ah yeah, R1! I cut my teeth on the one-shot Walmart map, lol! Miss that.

gamerz581d ago

Played that demo soooooo many damn times since it was the only thing to play for a while at launch. That and motorstorm.

refocusedman581d ago

killzone was amazing but resistance was great as well. althpugh theybwrre both fps, I think that served different purposes.

JEECE581d ago

Thanks for turning Insomniac into a Marvel studio.

ApocalypseShadow581d ago (Edited 581d ago )

Although I agree on original games and creativity over licensed IP, especially something like Ghost of Tsushima. But Sony's looking at that series selling less and less overall with the 3rd estimated to not even sell 2 million. Gamers who say they loved it didn't really buy it.

While Spiderman the series has sold over 50 million not counting PC. And Spider-Man 2 is over 11 million so far. If you had their business and had to make their decisions, what would you do in their shoes?

JEECE581d ago

@ApocalypseShadow

Umm, that's exactly my point lol. Insomniac made great, original IP games and people didn't buy them because they were too busy lapping up yearly CODs and Assassin's Creeds, so naturally Sony/Insomniac had to pivot to something else.

Knushwood Butt581d ago

So you are saying 1 was the worst?
I respect your opinion but strongly disagree.

I'll start with what I didn't like about 3:
- OK, Nathan Hale is gone but new player character totally forgettable. Can't even remember their name.
- Awful forced in 3D. Just look at KZ3 for 3D done well.
- Online multiplayer that paled in comparison to 1 and 2. Put hundreds of hours into the first two. Probably less than 10 hours into 3.
- Campaign was OK but I played the other two more, especially 1.

Pedrof581d ago

1 had my favorite gunplay of the trilogy (no need for COD iron sight) so I guess my worst would be 2. At least 3 wrapped up the storyline, supported the move controller and had prettier graphics. But in my book, none of the three really stood out. From that era, I prefered Singularity for example and obviously Killzone 2.

I wish they'd bring back the Resistance 2 multiplayer. God that co-op was so much fun.

Up there with the top tier in the industry. Love Guerrilla Games - Horizon Burning Shores is simply STUNNING.

1Victor1134d ago

Can’t wait for their next franchise

SullysCigar1134d ago

Same. They nailed it with Horizon. The trouble is I also want a new Killzone! Can't I just have it all?!

jznrpg1133d ago

I’m with you I want Horizon 3 , Killzone and new IPs

badz1491133d ago

I have yet to play Burning Shores as I just started Forbidden West (bought at launch, just unwrapped last weekend LOL) and playing on PS5.

man...I still can't believe the graphics especially now I'm playing it on my LG OLED. that graphics and with stable performance backing it up, GG really is the master of their craft!

Vengeance11381134d ago

32.7M sales in the Horizon franchise! With 8.4M coming from Forbidden West alone! Truly a hugely successful game and franchise as a whole. Looking forward to Horizon III

Shane Kim1134d ago

That's kind of a huge drop though. It's only been two games.

VersusDMC1134d ago

One year after realease HZD sold 7.6 million.

https://www.noobfeed.com/ne...

So not a drop off.

Unless you're saying a HFW should have sold as much now as HZD sold in 5 years?

Vengeance11381134d ago

It's been 3 games, this includes Call of the Mountain. Also no, its a great improvement over HZD.

solideagle1134d ago

lol you are comparing:

HZD: 28 February 2017 - May 2023 (6 years+)

HFW: 18 February 2022 - May 2023 (1 year+)

We will see if it surpass original number.

Phoenix761134d ago

@shane, 2 full main games, 2 DLC add ons, 1 VR spin off game, oh and a an official LEGO set.
Not too bad for an ip that's only been on market for 6 years

REDGUM1133d ago

Wow, very impressive. I didn't know the numbers were so high for Forbidden West. Still playing through it myself

thesoftware7301134d ago (Edited 1134d ago )

Yooo, when I first saw that Killzone 1 footage at E3, my friends my brothers and I were like, Holy shit! When it came out, it didn't look exactly like it, but we sunk so many hours into 1 & 2.

I even liked Killzone: SF, it was a spectacle to look at, and even today it looks good. I hope they make a new one. Can you imagine how that will look, and they can get some modern FPS pointers from Bungie.

blacktiger1133d ago

thank you fps lover, I'm with you

talocaca1134d ago

Such a wonderful studio. They deserve all their success.

The Decima Engine is absolute 🔥 I'm just mad they have abandoned Killzone.

OzzY-waZZy1134d ago (Edited 1134d ago )

Kinda wish they move on from Horizon tbh.

lukasmain1133d ago

They are probably working on mutiple projects. One of them is Horizon 3, but another is a multiplaer game and probably somehting else.

Imalwaysright1133d ago

There were rumours that they were working on a Socom reboot.
