Going into town to get this tomorrow, what are your thoughts on it?
This topic is locked from further discussion.
a decent shooter (8.5 or so). I will say that it is the hardest FPS game this gen. normal mode on that game is like hard mode on most other FPS games. this is a man's game. its like a rite of passage.
I loved the first "Resistance". Perfect, pretty-much. Totally advise purchase!
:D
R2 wasn't as intoxicating for a few reasons, but you definitely should play them in order to appreciate the changes. RFoM is also good because it has decent replay value (no trophies). One of the few games that rewards the player for beating it by adding harder settings and a completely beefed up & altered weapon set to do it with! They should get a medal for that!
:D
Buy that game. You won't be sorry. It's probably dirt cheap now, too. I got my copy for $15us.
Yeah I would have to agree it's pretty outdated, but it was fun. I finished it. It reminded me of Medal of Honor: Front Line for the PS2 except with aliens. Resistance 2 has a faster pacing, but it's a CoD clone takes out a lot of good things FOM did. The story is a really big change too. Resistance 3 seems to be fixing the issues with both games.It wasn't bad, but it's very generic and kind of outdated these days. If you love shooters you'll probably like it. I didn't even finish it.

There's a bundle coming out soon (I think) with both Resistance 1 and 2 together for $30. You could wait out and purchase that. I'm picking it up since I haven't played Resistance 2 yet.
Enjoyed it a lot back when it came out.. Way better then R2 (i spit on that game)..
I'm sure it hasn't aged well though..

This pretty much sums it up for me as well.
i enjoyed it at first which was unexpected, but then i didnt have that much fun overall. its alright though. and its heaps old too. but restiance 2 is good and resistance 3 goods badass, so its worth the play . besides its dirt cheap
FoM is an awesome game, but it comes from a time before CoD4. After CoD4 came out, every developer tried to copy it by throwing in all of the bells and whistles that CoD is known for (aim down the sites, sprinting, killstreaks, two weapons at a time)
What makes FoM great is the hip fire and weapon wheel. These kinds of things don't exist is shooters anymore which is sad.
I hear we are due for a return to the awesome Weapon Wheel in R3, as well as non-regen health system (which is why I'm buying it flat-outa the GATE. HURRAY for old-school health and Weapon Wheel!!!
:D
The lack of weapon wheel is one of the few things I was let down by in R2, and regen health has made me a lazy FPS player... I respect them for not going that route. In a world of CoD clones, we NEED this sort of design change... Amongst other things in the genre! I really should play R2 on a harder setting again. It's been a long time since either disc was warmed in my console.
R3 comes out on my birthday, as does "WarHammer 40K: Space Marine"... Oh, the choices I face come September!!!
