Okay, so is that the worst ending to a video game ever? Nathan does all the work to save the world just to get capped in the head by that corporal guy. Do you guys think we will play the corporal in Resistance 3 then with Nathan Hale as the bad guy?

Als, did anyone else find the final boss fight to be extremely lacking? Especially compared to the great boss fight where that huge thing is chucking you across the city.

I don't think the ending was bad... I thought it was actually good. I mean, it doesn't leave you with the accomplishment feeling but it leaves you totally shocked I never saw THAT coming tbh.

As for R3, who knows?? that's why I'm shocked, I guess and it makes me wonder what's coming so I already want that stupid game lol.

And about the final fight, well tbh no boss fight were hard for me, all of them were pretty easy, with exception of the swarm maybe, but that one was easy too.

i agree with greengoblin. i DID NOT see that coming. totally thought Hale would blow away Capelli with those cool powers you get with your hands. But yes, i did think the final boss fight was too easy.

Insomniac probably wanted tp do something different with the ending whereas most endings to games are hard , they probably wanted to try the easier ending. Also they probably want more people playing CoOP and Competitative

I liked the ending, but I gotta agree that the last boss was too easy and it just wasn't as exciting as the rest.

As for R3, I hope that in the campagin I think it would be awesome if you can create your own character which will play as a new solider to the squad of Capelli(The guy who killed Hale) and Hale will play the leader of the Chimera, so its your job to be in the final fight against the Chimera

I liked the ending. it left more questions than answers which i can admire in a story. I hope Capelli is the new protagonist and not as bland a character as hale.

I guess I should say I didn't find any of the boss fights to be difficult either, but a few of them were much more fulfilling than the final fight. The last level kind of reminded me of Halo 3, what with having to get off a crumbling ship at the last second after easily defeating the final boss...but I didn't like that about Halo 3 either lol. But the END end..anyone ever see Arlington Road? Yeah it's compeling and utterly shocking but it leaves me wondering why I just spent my time doing it.

Best Ending Evar ok, not that good, but far from a bad ending. I liked it, and I think it was inevitable based on the fact that Hale didn't get his inhibitors to prevent his change. Also, Capelli offered to take his head of if he changed, and Hale accepted the offer, so all in all, not an unexpected ending. As to what happens next, we'll have to wait and see. If there will be another "Resistance", I'm buying it on launch day again.

last boss fight reminded me of the last boss from halflife...

 

what with the destroying of the crystals and stuff...

 

Anyways, good game for sure. I would say I enjoyed it more then the first one. The online is pretty fun too.

It would have been better if they just zoomed the picture of when Capelli (Corporal dude) shot Nathan without showing the shot landing in his head. It would have made for a more dramatic moment because then you won't know if that shot actually hit him or not.

All boss battles are easy and im playing on Superhuman mode (I hope). I agree Swarm was the only "hard" boss but that was because I had no Idea if I had to just run or shoot. I wanted the Daedalus battle to be really epic but all it was, was shooting light bulbs (How many Sentinels does it take to screw in a lightbulb). I expected something like him grabbing me with his tentacle and then Hale pulls a gernade and kills em both, or Hale gets that plasma gun thing that he used on the kraken blows some pillars up and they fall on Daedalus then you get on his head and then shoot him a few times then he grabs you and throws you sort of like the Leviathen battle but Daedalus flys straight for you to end Hale with a sort of Spear attack but when your flying Hale either pulls out that giant Plasma gun or the HE 44 magnum and shoots Daedalus and thats how the battle ends.

Well, Dedalus was dumb... all that big brain he had was meant to store pr0n. In the end that's all that matters.

Oh so thats what it was. NOW I GET WHY HE WAS SAYING THAT, "Can you hear them? Its beautiful". My God he was thinking of porn all along. In the end Hale had abosrbed it all and it was so much that he was able to shoot it out of his hands but it was so much for the other Chimera to bare so they exploded themselves.

I thought they could have worked more on the ending. I mean the telekinesis was pretty cool but expected better. I highly doubt though that you'll have to play as the Corporal.

I found most of the boss battles to be a bit of a letdown tbh. The only two I liked were the Kraken and The Swarm. I thought the ending was pretty sweet and I can't wait to see what happens in the next game.

Yeah, I went through the entire final bossfight without taking any damage at all. I shot out a bulb, sprinted away, shot out another one...took I think four or five bulbs to take him down, and then there was no dramatic movie or anything, it just came back in to Daedulus in a big lump and Nathan goes up, touches him and then...ZOMG the ships about to blow!!!

Anyway, the suggestion that they should have zoomed in on Capelli's face for the pistol shot is a good one, and then fade out to credits and we would all be here talking about how awesome it's gonna be to get part 3 and find out what really happened.

Yeah the boss fight was easy, but the whole game was pretty hard or challenging I should say. And the ending was great I don't think Hale is dead he's probably alive, and it was very unexpected to see that happening to him. This game wasn't really one that answered or filled us in on everything from R1 it added more questions more plot to the next game and moved us onward into this deep story. The third game will be truly epic story wise. I like the way they ended this I didn't feel cheated it was good. Now we have to find out what happens in the next game.

At least I didn't see it coming :|

But really, I wouldn't really count on Hale actually being dead. I mean, it would be freaking sweet if we could play as a Chimeran military general in the next once.

If they decide to keep him, then since this is a RESISTANCE, then we'll probably control some other guy to take down Hale in his Chimeran form.

If Hale is dead, then ouch.

honestly i think i might be one of the people who thought the campaign was pretty bad. i'll probably get flamed and stuff but idc. I thought that the game was lacking but i did enjoy the guns it had. after playing through so many other campaigns the campaign of resistance 2 just didn't shape up in my opinion. sure there were lots of enemies onscreen at a time but the game didn't excite me as much as MGS4 or heavenly sword's campaign did. but its just my opinion. i will say though there were alot of moments where i was like oh thats cool thats soo crazy but for the most part the graphics for most of the levels were a little bland and the ending wasn't soo good. i think hale is still alive and he'll regenerate becuz when he was impaled by the daedalus he survived that unless that really didn't happen. also in one of the intels dr malikov stated that hale was different just like shepherd was. but the gunplay in resistance 2 was awesome and was very satisfying especially popping domes with the magnum. i think it needed vehicle segments and for the boss fights to be challenging or more creative becuz they were pretty easy. but when all those grims were rushing at hale in chicago i actually felt like it was over for me.

I think Hale didn't resist in the ending because he knows he's coming back in a monster form in Resistance 3.
