I've noticed some nasty frame rate issues yesterday but nothing that makes it unplayable.

Hope the patch fix it.

thereapersson5362d ago

One that, if they hadn't've gone with the 3D stuff, they could have done more with the game's stability.

JoGam5362d ago (Edited 5362d ago )

REALLY? You need to re-analysed your feeling...

buddymagoo5362d ago (Edited 5362d ago )

I haven't had any problems and IGNs 9/10 review didn't mention anything.

At the moment I am Level 7 and really enjoying the multi-player and its range of weapons and perks. I love the doppleganger perk. Some of the smoke effects from grenades and explosions are amazing!

TheMyst5361d ago (Edited 5361d ago )

It's a really good game, but I really think Insomniac could have done much better with the campaign.. It was just so predictable and nowhere near as good as the first 2. Yea, adding his family gave it a more personal touch, but the story itself really wasn't all that great.

The online is pretty much... generic. I mean, Insomniac decided to radically changed it, which I don't mind, but they changed it so much! It lost it's identity. Personally, I'd give this game a 7/10, which means it's still way above average, but not quite as great as it could have been. I was left kinda disappointed. They had three years to do the game and it just doesn't show.

Pacman3215361d ago

I disagree, although the story itself isn't great, the actual gameplay is amazing. I haven't played a fps campaign as good as this one in years. It was a bit short however with thenew weapon leveling system there is a some replayability.
And about the online, besides the small lag problem, it is brilliant. It is similar to resistance fall of man, which is a good thing. Ive already played 3 hours online, i don't know how you can call the game generic, IMO there is no game like resistance 3, which is great as it now it has its own identity, unlike resistance 2 which was trying to be like cod. I suggest you pick "Anything" in the multiplayer playlist, you then get a chance to play 16 player free for all, which is my personal favourite.
Also, i would like to add, even though i am a huge Killzone fan, Resistance 3 beats it this time for me.

Why not just upgrade that GPU a bit or the 6 year old CPU... oh wait.

@below

Exclusives that run below 30fps and cause frustrating no thx :)

TheTruth895362d ago

we all known you are jealous because you can't play PS3 exclusives :D

stonecold35361d ago

i think your talking about 360 ps3 hasnt even reach its 5 year in my country yet ?

Nathaniel_Drake5361d ago (Edited 5361d ago )

why not just play resistance 3 on pc..oh wait
why not just play resistance 2,1 on pc..oh wait
why not just play uncharted 1,2,2 on pc..oh wait
why not just play infamous 1,2 on pc...oh wait
why not just play twisted metal on pc...oh wait
why not just play ratchet and clank on pc...oh wait
why not just play god of war on pc...oh wait
why not just play sotc,ico on pc...oh wait
why not just play killzone on pc...oh wait
why not just play wkc on pc....oh wait
why not just play sly cooper on pc...oh wait

Look just stop with this pc bullcrap most gamers play on consoles for a reason and just because you only play games for the graphics just shows your opinion doesn't mean a lot

Edit: PC has games but overall consoles just have too many good ones to ignore. The games are so good a hit in the graphics just doesn't bother me and others that's why people have been buying consoles for so long for gaming

Kee5362d ago

Another patch? You'd have thought the original 600mb patch would have fixed those issues.

decrypt5362d ago (Edited 5362d ago )

Its just that Sony doesnt want developers to have an easy to code platform, they believe having a challenging to code for platform is a better choice for some unknown reason.

http://www.shacknews.com/ar...

We know we know.. Sony are retarded.

@below

Its got to be man, its right from the horse's mouth :P In fact the source is so strong on this one none of the girls can deny it.

Kee5362d ago (Edited 5362d ago )

Cool story, bro.

No, I believe you. Yet I don't care how the game gets to me as long as it gets to me and it's good. I'm not an aspiring game developer. I don't care what it's like to develop for the PS3.

morganfell5362d ago (Edited 5362d ago )

"Sony are retarded."

Oh the irony of name calling. Nothing quite equals self-pwnage.

ShaunCameron5361d ago

It's part of the 10-year plan. It's part of the plan to make the PS3 future-proof. But history has shown there's no such thing as a future-proof console. All consoles will eventually become obsolete.

death2smoochie5361d ago

Making a console hard to develop for is insane and another reason Sony themselves went a full 180 with the Vita as that system is developer friendly unlike the PS2 and PS3.

MidnytRain5361d ago

"Sony *are* retarded."

Oh, the irony...

2pacalypsenow5361d ago

yeah cuz Gears of war never had a pach cuz of the ease of the xbox 360 right??

seems to be the trend this gen for console games.

Jihaad_cpt5362d ago

cause they never patch pc games?

kevnb5361d ago

Im talking framerate issues.

Nephesh5362d ago

I like the multiplayer, but they HAVE to fix the framerate issues when you are in close quarters. It's almost unplayable. I know it's cost me kills every match I've played. And no, it's not my connection. I have around a 25 Mb connection, with only problems on this game.

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

CrimsonWing69551d ago

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

Cacabunga551d ago (Edited 551d ago )

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

Eonjay551d 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_cheese551d 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

gamerz551d ago

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

isarai551d ago

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

preciousdeath551d ago

Yes! ...and make them PSVR2 compatible.

Pedrof551d 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).

pwnmaster3000551d ago

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

P_Bomb551d ago

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

gamerz551d ago

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

refocusedman551d ago

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

JEECE551d ago

Thanks for turning Insomniac into a Marvel studio.

ApocalypseShadow551d ago (Edited 551d 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?

JEECE551d 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 Butt551d 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.

Pedrof551d 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.

Resistance 3 is such a great game. One of my all time bests.

cooperdnizzle1418d ago

Couldn’t agree more. Still love It as a shooter to this day.

Just something about that game. I really wish they would just do a remaster, don’t even need a remake just bring it up to todays out put, touch up a few things if any, and I am there to buy it day one.

Of course I would love a remake built from the ground up. As long as they treated it like Shadow of the Colossus, or close to those type of remake. Wouldn’t want it to get the RE treatment…. Just because the game is already paced so perfect and hits all the right beats that I wouldn’t touch that aspect.

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.

Eidolon1474d ago

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

Miraak82 1474d 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_vulgaris1476d ago

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

GoodGuy091476d ago

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

fr0sty1475d ago

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

P_Bomb1475d ago

Never played Burning Skies but I still have Retribution.

monkey6021475d ago

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

porkChop1475d 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.

darthv721474d 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_Suzumiya1475d ago

Resistance 3 was shocking and brilliant. Loved it.
