Because Call of Duty 3 is Call of Duty with Nazis in it. Resistance is Call of Duty with aliens in it. Most people obviously prefer history as it happened.fanboy999Resistance isn't a WW2 shooter. It takes place in the 50's. It borrows from popular Sci-fi novels like War of the Worlds and Invasion of the Body Snatchers, while having it's own twists. With a .2 difference anyway, there shouldn't be an argument. Both games are arguabley equal.
[QUOTE="ninjaxams"]no, no, no, and no. there is no better story than anything that happened in WW2. never has there been a clear cut real life conflict of good and evil. RFOM looked like hell and lacked detail that COD3 had. AI is poor on both fronts. Lastly, as far as weapons go, its all about preference. I would much rather have an mp40 or kar98 instead of some lame @$$ futuristic rirle that shoots through walls. all this plus COD3 MP>>>>>>>everything about RFOM. you phail.Ultra-Alue
Why play COD3 when the first and second COD games were so much better? Call of Duty 3 offers nothing new to the whole WW2 game universe. Same guns, same settings, same boring enemies, everything you have done before. Besides several little parts where you drive, but those are only decent. And while it does make firing a gun feel a little more realistic, Resistance beats it by offering weapons we haven't seen before and that are quite frankly much more fun to use.
And WW2 does not have a great story. "Hey, those guys don't like jews and kill them for some reason. Hurr, let's go save them." Oh yes, truely great. Everything about Resistance blows Call of Duty 3 out of the park when it comes to settings and such. Instead of raping history for entertainment, it actually tries to do something different. Which we need so see more of in games. COD3 does offer a entertaining and often thrilling gameplay experience, when the difficulity is turned up really high, but it's something you've already played hundreds of times before.
Call of Duty 3 = more of the same.
Resistance = Offers a novel twist to a historical event and actually gives us something new.
While I agree that the first 2 CODs were better (as IW made them both) that doesn't mean COD3 isn't a solid game. So what if WW2 FPSs have been done to death. None of them offer what COD does in terms of action and scope. COD is a brilliant franchise. And what exactally makes RFOM so damn special? Like we haven't seen a million scifi FPSs either. You sir are being biased towards a game you love against a genre you obviously know little about.As for the story of WW2, lets not down play it little kid. Many many brave men died in that war while preforming heroic actions, something the garbage scripted scenes in RFOM couldn't even begin to tell. These games tell their story as best they. Yes, the reason behind WW2 is stupid, but the individual stories that lie within this conflict are nothing short of amazing. That is what I meant. Try picking up a book and reading some first hand accounts. Far better than anything insomniac could ever portray.

I don't really care what decade it took place in. Or about the convoluted storyline. When I played Resistance I felt like I was playing a ripped off version of Call of Duty. That is why I stopped playing it and went back to the real Call of Duty.

Yeah, and generations later we should mock their sacrifice by making artficial recreations of it for the sake of amusement.
And I'd have to agree with kniveshurt's post. The games are about equal. As long as you are talking about the 360 version of Call of Duty 3.

I don't think anyone is mocking anything. If anything, their paying homage. What about movies based on WW2? Those are made for "amusement" as well.Resistance isn't a WW2 shooter.

Call of Duty has aliens?:lol: I think they added that in after the 2nd one....:lol:It's called an opinion.actually it was an 8.5. the ps3 version recieved a 8.75 for some reason. obviously we have some differences in opinions between the media.
Plus if it'll make you feel any better, Game Informer gave CoD (360) a 7.5 and Resistance a 9.5

and?????????????? so what. most of the media outlets gave gears amazing scores as well but they all failed to mention that it was extremely linear and had repetive gameplay. not to mention that the game is only 5-6hrs long and had 3 options (all of which were basically the same damn thing) for MP. the game was a joke (albiet a pretty one) but somehow still recieved all these 9+ scores. gears was guilty of many many things that other titles get bashed for. hypocracy FTW?Resistance:

[QUOTE="Magical_Zebra"]Resistance is not bad. Its just the average fps. It got the score it deserved. Doesnt mean its a bad game, it just mean that its not great. :shock:Ultra-Alue
And yet an 8 rating means great. And just about every other gaming site rated it higher then that. Hmmm.
We are not going by "every other" gaming site. We are going by GS because you are here posting on GS. In damage control mode now....... :shock: Â
