Resistance: Fall of man is a Solid Shooter and an above average Launch Title for any console to date. I refer to it as the PS3 equivalent of Halo. Mainly because the reason many people bought it was because it was the only FPS to be launched with the PS3 and people bought it because of that, and like Halo I was surprised how good it was. The first thing I noticed was how EPIC and detailed the game was. The first levels although probably one of the hardest parts in the game was easily one of the best parts to play through and there are a lot of good parts in the game.

The game offers plenty of different ways to play and easily has some of the best weapons in any FPS, and all have some pretty creative twist to it such as the Hailstorm which launches Hundreds of crystals that ricochet off of everything, while the secondary fire shoots the rest of the clip out as a floating auto turret, although you will find yourself using the Carbine most of the time due to a lack of ammunition for other weapons.

There are vehicle parts in the game that are not used to the fullest of their ability as they are short, but they do offer a good break from the constant onslaught through the Chimera on foot and are over all some of the best parts of the game.

The Chimera are the guys that you will be fighting against throughout the game. There are many distinct variety of Chimera and all have their own strengths and weaknesses. Although the standard hybrid warrior is what you will normally be up against throughout the game. This isn't a bad thing as the AI is solid; they will try and flank you, shoot from cover. As for you allies they are really only there as cannon fodder, every solider except for Cartwright is downright useless. It's up to you to finish the job, kill the Chimera and unless there packing a Sniper Rifle there a waste of time.

As for the story aspect of the game not much is revealed at all. All your really know is that WW2 never happened but the Chimera did. The Chimera started in Russia and quickly swept over all of Europe and Asia. While playing the game you will pick up intelligence documents that reveal little snippets of information about the Chimera or what had been happening in Europe. Apart from that you left in the dark on everything else.

The Multiplayer aspect of the game is great IN THEROY. Having a 40 player online is great but when you add the ability to have 1 shot kills and unlimited ammo, custom matches all become Team Deathmatches with unlimited ammo and one shot kills, with everything but the Carbine and Sniper Rifle disabled. Good Luck trying to find a game that's not Deathmatch or Team Deathmatch. Although ranked are available, for when you get sick of that same guy nailing you over and over again.

A decent shooter that will provide many hours of game play, and is still worth buying even with Resistance: United We Fall just on the horizon.
