Have you ever really wanted a game, played the demo, and then gone "eww no thanks"? Ever played a demo you were casually interested in and then gone "Holy balls that was awesome I need that now!"? I bring this up because last night:
I played the demo for Resistance 3. I had played 1 and 2 and enjoyed them but had completely written off R3 as a "meh" game. I finally got bored last night and decided to fire it up and holy shit I was blown away!
It was actually beautiful, the shooting and aiming is soooo tight and good, and the battles felt like they were really organic instead of "get from point A to B". I was floored by how good it looked, not because of the textures (there were some low res ones) but the particle affects and the amount of movement on screen is phenomenal! I might buy it now.
Any similar (or opposite) experiences?
