Resistance......

I have been watching resistance 2 for sometime now and was wondering if I should play the first Resistance game just to catch up on the story? Because when I played MGS4 i had to go up to my attic and pull out my old Ps2 to catch up on the story.

Basicaly I'm asking if it is strongly story based game.

The story is important to the campaign. The story in the first one is good, but the storytelling is pretty boring. Resistance: FOM was great considering the fact that it was a launch title and still holds its own pretty well even by today's standards. I would definitely get it at $30 - it's a steal, and I'm sure that there are still people playing online.

You don't NEED to play Resistance 1, but it's a good primer.PhysicsLCP

Yeah, I agree that it's not necessary, but you still should play it. :P

So if I rented it and play through it. I'll be good. Remember I'm only 14. lol

Oh, so money's tight? Anyway, yeah, you should be good. It's about a 12-15 hour campaign so make sure you've got enough time. If you just want it solely for the sake of story, a cheaper altenative would be just reading about it on Wikipedia or something. But if you do rent it, definitely check out the online play if you can find a game that isn't one hit kill. :P

It's a great game and it's hella cheap. Pick it up if you want something fun. :D

Besides it will make R2 seem all that much better. ;)
