[QUOTE="nhortn"] is complaining about how resistance 2 is copying from Gears of war?! -Intellectual-
So many replies and NO one answered my question !!
Resistance 2 is currently in development and the latest screenshots reveal that some of the chimera look like the Locust Horde. It seems Insomniac is doing this intentionally under the direct orders from Sony. Sony is so upset and angry that Gears was a runaway success with amazing graphics using the Unreal Engine 3.
As for the people who are saying there are no original games recently, just look at Bioshock which won many awards and critically acclaimed. Bioshock did enough to stand out from the crowd and had many original ideas.
Gears was also original. No game had mastered and perfected 3rd person shooting with tactical cover.
Half-life needs no introduction. Its one of the BEST FPS series ever made and very original. Dont be bitter that the Orange Box was poor on the ps3 and the worst version, with horrible frame-rates and online lag. Read the reviews from various sites to see for yourself.
*sigh* Ok i'll answer to each of those idividually with everything you need. 1. resemblance to locust horde - pictures:
Gears -->picture 1picture 2
Resistance 1 & Resistance 2
don't kid yourself... no similarity
2. Insomniac doing this under Sony - proved they weren't similar. Working under sony's wing to imitate gears because they are jealous? Conspiracy theorist are you? If you want to prove what you said you need to find me a link to your story of insomniac working to imitate gears. It's so easy to speculate and live in a dream where companies you don't like are comparable to Hitler Do you really think Microsoft cares about you and your personal needs? Every multi billion company wants YOUR money so they are going to tap on successes to make more money. Sony is like that and Microsoft is like that.
3. Bioshock being original - you are right on that one. Bioshock was original and brought something new to the table. There are obviously going to be a few shooters bringing something new to the table. But can you say alot? Not really. You have to come to the realisation that when a game does very well companies tend to want to emulate what worked with that game. IT IS THE NATURE OF THE INDUSTRY.
4. Gears and it's revolutionary 3rd person - I can hardly call Gears tactical and neither can you. I've played it and loved it. Hell I think it's one of the best games out. GRAW is an amazing third person Tactical shooter and it works extremely well.
5. Half life and the orange box - Both excellent games (from what i hear). Not many people can deny that. Have you personally played the ps3 version? If yes then your point is valid and you can discuss it with people who know about the quality. If not you need to keep your mouth shut when you don't know something. I could say that i hate Half life because it sucks monkeyballs but i'm not going to say that because I have NEVER PLAYED IT. Therefore my point is not valid. Therefore neither is yours. note: What does that have to do with the unoriginality of Insomniac?
To end it I will add why I think Insomniac is original. I have played two games by them: Resistance and R & C. The weapons are original, the action is even, the level design is always different (less in Resistance but the point still remains), voice acting is great, Gameplay is easy and accessable... Please answer me with a well documented and informed response or I won't give you the time of day.
