Resistance is not the killer app for the Playstation 3. It's a by-the-books FPS from Insomniac that plays a little too much like Disrupter (their other FPS effort) with a Half-Life complex. Insomniac essentially took elements of these games and threw Call of Duty on top of it. It's a mish-mash of other FPS games that are out already. THe game was apparently designed to take full use of the Playstation 3's core processors. I sincerely hope that's not the case because the graphics simply aren't spectacular. I saw this game at Gamestop a few days before the PS3 was released and I wasn't blown away by it. It was quite depressing. I felt that if this is what the PS3 is capable of then what's the point in paying $600 for the system. At it's highest resolution you still get sharpness problems: jagges, white and black outlines on everything, colors too bright and blinding. I wasn't impressed with the graphics or gameplay. Judging Resistance as just another FPS is fine simply because it is a worthy addition to a too-bloated genre. Taken as a definition of the power of the PS3, it's a total failure. I would wait until the second or third generation of PS3 to see the true power (or lack of power) of the system. Kudos to Insomniac though for not bringing out a tired sequel or remake. It's better than Ratchet and Clank HD.
