It was an alright game, but it suffered from the hype when the PS3 first came out.

It's a good game in my opinion, but I can see where people would say it's mediocre. I honestly hated how you had so many guns at once, that and the secondary functions brought the game down for me.

I actually just bought it recently (took them a while to make it a greatest hit) and I like it. I haven't played that many FPSs since Allied Assault lol so I guess I can't critique it that well. Overall, enjoyable. I'm looking forward to Resistance 2.

Mostly because they haven't played it and they love bad mouthing the PS3's exclusives, others probably just didn't like it.

Overated in general i meant. And of course thats me stating my opinion, im not trying to push it across as fact. I know the majority think Assassins Creed is overated, but i dont. Maybe the PS3 has lower standards in the FPS genre:P

It's got HALO rip off written all over it basically. Just another generic piece of trash FPS game. Why do devs insist on making clones of the HALO franchise with a twist. The whole meat head army dude vs aliens is getting really old now. And obvious. It's come to a point where you can just predict nearly every storyline in an FPS these days. The gameplay is just overly done as well. To a point where it's just boring. That goes for all FPS games in paticular, not just RFOM.

Halo ripoff? Have you played it? It's more of a HL2 ripoff. And if you haven't played HL2, you shouldn't be judging FPS's =\

The only thing that it had going for it was the lack of any semi-decent online game on ps3.

It wasn't as good as Halo 3 but it was a good game none the less. People that call it crap when comparing have never played it most likely. The sequel seems to improve on a lot of things so it will hopefully stand out in such a crowded gen of shooters. I didn't buy the first one because although it had a better SP that the other shooters available its online was a bit lacking, however I do plan on buying the sequel :D

I agree some bad mouth it w/out playing it. Probably just console hate. I played it and after Halo the whole alien, FPS thing is redundant. In short, I did not care for it.

Why does it need to be a revolution in the shooter genre in order to be a good game? And on top of that, Resistance had some really great weaponry, stuff I had never seen in an FPS.

I don't. I think it's good.

But i can still answer your question : It's their opinion, they don't need to agree with you or any major gaming sites.

Its the same with PDZ it only got highly rated due to it being a launch game, the game has good weapons, but it has to be one of the most average shooters i have ever played

Overrated yes but not to the level that PD0 was. PD0 was one of the worst games I have played in awhile. I dont even know why I let the gamestop convince me to buy it. Resistance had an enjoyable single player. I enjoyed the weapons and the levels. PLus the MP was decent as well. PD0 single player was crap. Complete and utter crap. I think modders in the modding community could have made a better single player. Though I know some people enjpyed the MP. I found it to be very lame.

I really enjoyed the game. The amount of enemies to fight on screen was pretty cool, plus these were the most frightening aliens in a video game I think.

And the final levels were pretty epic with everything happening and having to defeat the Angels and whatnot.

What's wrong with you people?

It was a freaking launch title.

What were you expecting? The second coming?

You can't honestly expect anyone to compare it to things like Halo and Geow.

Resistance 2 is where you should start judging.

And I really beleive this will be in the high AAA's.

Unlike Too Human, lol.

I dont understand why ut3 on consoles doesnt have a crouch button like clicking in left analog...on the pc version i use xbox360 controller and i just click in my left analog and i crouch anytime i want lol.

no crouch in ut3 totally takes away from gameplay.

It's good but not great, I've played it enough to know, theres much better fps's out for consoles like Halo 3, Cod 4, The Orange Box, Bioshock Rainbow Six Vegas and Unreal Tournament 3. Resistance is just not that special, it's too simple, cookie cutter and generic.

I never bought Resistance...I just played the demo off of psn and never ended up buying the game. I just played time splitters future perfect till the online on that game went out which was like 7 or 8 months after ps3's release sometime in the summer. Then I bought Warhawk and then I bought COD4 so I don't think I going to buy Resistance 2 but FarCry 2 and Socom look like games that I want.

I dunno. I bought it like, 2 days ago and I'm enjoying it. I love what you can do with the rocket launcher, completely tears through Stalkers. My only problems are that sometimes it takes me a few tries to get the right momentum for a situation, because some you can go in a room to clear it, othertimes it's more potshots. Also, there just aren't many people online for ranked games on the free maps.

I think by 'new' he might have been meaning something new to all platforms. I'll let you guess which one in particular.
