Resistance is a great concept..but 2 things hold it back, imo

1. The Main character, He just isn't badarse enough or cool enough to enjoy using, to the level of Master cheif, Kratos, Snake, Marcus, etc etc. He just looks silly.

2. the whole WW2 with aliens isn't appealing.

So imo, the game will never have that massive appeal to it, due to those 2 things. Shame because, technically its a great game.

anyone else feel the same.

The concepted is horrroiriable and it will bee a horriabiable games.flacracker173

Seriously, how could you spell horrible so wrong?

marcus has a soul patch, that is not badarse in this day in age.killzowned24

KRATOS HAS A SOUL PATCH!

Kratos is one of the most awesome main characters - ever.

Oh and, i dont completely agree on your arguement - Nathan Hale isnt too appealing, but he's good enough, not much dialogue but hey - thats the Resistance formula

And the WWII + Aliens formula can be utter crap, or brilliant - Insomniac + WWII+ Aliens = Brilliance!

LOL and concept is incorrect as well.

This is a dumb topic. Master chief and Snake are quiet spoken characters. The opposite of somebody like Kratos or marcus. So there goes your whole defensive statement

Great concept?

Its a linear, corridoor fps corridoor crawler.

Its concept is well... not great at all, its standard.

what makes it better than average is its setting, weapons, and features.

I was bonr in USDA and thats were i will stay. And english my first languanuage.

I agree about the character part. They made Nathan Hale seem so boring in the first one. He barely had any lines of dialogue at all. Thankfully, the seem to have fixed that in Resistance 2, from what i've seen.

I disagree about the setting. I think WW2 with aliens is a cool idea, and I barely even like WW2 shooters.

Speak for yoiurself indeed.

Badass characters are lame, immature, boring and predictable. Why would I want to play them?

This game you can tell they have given him a lot more personality, Should be great

1. The Main character, He just isn't badarse enough or cool enough to enjoy using, to the level of Master cheif, Kratos, Snake, Marcus, etc etc. He just looks silly.

2. the whole WW2 with aliens isn't appealing.

When I first played the first one I thought the same thing about the premise. At the time there were 10 million world war 2 shooters out there and I thought they had just sloppily added aliens to make it seem like they were being original but I just thought it was lame. The main character is ordinary and boring. I think the Chimera look stupid too.

Yeah, Hale was really a place holder character in the first Resistance. Insomniac says they want to expand upon him for Resistance 2, but we'll see. Also, Marcus? Badass? I thought his character was laughably overdone.

Just to clarify... the hook is that WWII never happened. Therefore the statement "the whole WW2 with aliens" doesn't make any sense.

No, it really doesn't.

When was the last time you navigated alien structures in a WWII game? Used a gun the shoots through walls? Tossed a grenade that sprung spikes everywhere?

There are three things the define a WWII shooter: Story, weapons and the enemy. All three of these things are completely altered in Resistance.

Like I said. They took a WW2 shooter and threw aliens in. Why are you in such denial over that anyways? Resistance 1 was mediocre no matter how you slice it so it doesn't really matter.

The PS3 exclusive bashing never seems to end here does it? I only agree with the first part about Nathan, Insomniac didn't give him much of a personality in the first game. Luckily they completely changed that for the second game. And how come everyone is saying that Resistance is mediocre when it scored good on several websites and there are some people that liked the game and are really anticipating the next one. And don't bring out the, "Bu but resistance was the only decent PS3 game and reviewers scored it because of that," I want a real reason, not an excuse.game_masta14

Nah I think back then the gen was in its early enough stages that mediocre games were getting high ratings. Pefect Dark Zero and Resistance 1 are two that come to mind.

The only one in denial is you, my friend. If you took the time to read my post (which it seems you didn't) then you wouldn't have just repeated the same incorrect statement. So here, I'll give you an unabridged version:

Resistance is not and is nothing like a WWII game. If you had actually played it you would know this.

And to your assumption that Resistance is mediocre: say that to the multiple AAA scores it got, and the words "great" under the GameSpot score. :|

LOL I read your post and you are parcing words to dance around the obvious fact that Resistance is a WW2 shooter with aliens. Look at the soldier's uniforms. The time period. The location. The fact that it looks just like Call of Duty only now you are using alien weapons and shooting horribly designed alien enemies.

BTW I played Resistance and that reminds me of something else I didn't like. Why advance an incredibly boring story with even more boring cutscenes. I mean it's a British voice rattling on and on to black and white photos. Eewww exciting. Sure can't wait for that sequel. I hope this time its a WW2 shooter with aliens and platforming elements....you know to be really original :roll:

Nope, not anymore I'm not. I'm pretty done making truthful and constructed statements only to hear his aimless fanboy prattle.

Okay L1qu1d we get it, you hate all things PS3. Weren't you supposed to leave SW a long time ago cause of MGS4 or something? Honestly the only thing you have going for ya is stubborness and persistence, like an ill-placed cold sore.

Your insults towards Nathan Hale aren't all without merit though, he was totally an interesting character but that narrating girl from the first one kept stealing the spotlight from him. The second title looks like its kicking her to the curb and giving Nathan the chance to really develop as a character. The thing is no one honestly cares whether you like him or not, just because he is a part of a Sony exclusive already means you hate him more than Hitler

1. Hale actually is pretty bad ass. Thousands of U.S. soliders sent to Europe and only one survived(Hale), that's pretty bad ass. Also, he will probably be way more badass in the second than he was in the first. Remember the ending in Resistance?
