1 Cup Call of Duty, 1 Cup Halo, Mix and Bake in Ps3.

User Rating: 9 | Resistance: Fall of Man PS3
The Ps3 has finally been released and yes it does have a killer app. Unfortunately, Resistance has flown under the radar due to the Ps3's extremely steep price tag. I had the chance recently, after getting a Ps3 $100 dollars off, to play this magnificent game, and i assure you that it can compete with any other fps on the market.

World War 2 is over-used, it's washed up, played out and needs to be canned for all of eternity you may say. Well, the good folks at insomniac feel differently.

Resistance puts a spin on the WW2 theme and runs away with it.The single player campaign is undeniably exhillerating. There is never a dull moment in this game. Enemies are aggressive and the battle is consistantly moving forward, which makes for a very intense experience, especially if played on an hdtv with surround sound. Gameplay wise Resistance literally is just as good as Call of Duty 4 or Halo 3. It is definitely a AAA title that has to be played to be believed.

The single player isnt perfect, the story is told through history channel esque still photos basically and you run into the same generic enemy 75% of the time, but for a first in the series and for the sheer fun of the game both issues are easily over-looked.

Multiplayer in Resistance boasts up to 40 players online, which is unprecedented for console gaming. The fast paced frenetic action found within the single player converts very well into multiplayer. There are plenty of modes to play, some standard issue such as ctf and deathmatch and some new and unique.

If it werent for sony's poor online service, which is incapable of sending in-game invites and messages (prior to 2.4 firmware update) this game would have just as vibrant a community as say halo or call of duty. It really is unfortunate because i wanted to love this game online but its outdone by plenty of games on the 360 because xbl is the much better online system (no offense fanboys but you know its true.

When the day is over and i look back at my time with Resistance i cant help but compare it to the top titles within the fps genre and it easily is in the same heavy-weight category as them.
