| madskillz said: Ok. I am not trying to flame or blast anyone with this post ... I finally started playing Resistance on my PS3. After playing the game for nearly 4 hours, I have to admit I walked away from it thinking 'Is that it?' I have played Halo, Halo 2 and Halo 3, as well as Gears O War, Bioshock, Call of Duty 2 and COD 4 and other shooters and I can honestly say, as a FPS fan, Resistance is a very forgetable title. All this time, I have been hearing folks brag on it, saying it was better than Gears and truth be told, I see elements of the game that are cool - that tagging bullet thing is legit and the enemies are intense, but I dropped the controller and just had to ask OWNERS and folks who have experience with the game what's up with it. Ok - as I stated, I'm not trying to flame, but I want to know what makes folks say this game is *all that?* |
Wow, each to his own I guess but I most certainly don't agree to that at all. Yeah, call me fanboy all you want but as an over all game, R:fom just has way more and better substance than GeOW.
The one thing GeOW had going to it was that it was jaw dropping pretty but other than that it lacked quality substance to it. I'd liken it to fast food in that regard. R:fom just had way more substance in story, gameplay via it's weaponary, online, and though some didn't like the presentation of R:fom too much (or so I hear) it certainly had better feel to it than GeOW.
Yeah, I know you'll call me your generic nerd insult - "fanboy"!! - but that's how I see it. R:fom was just a better gaming experience in general for me and that's incredible for a day one release product. Yes, GeOW was a fun game but wasn't something I'd pine to play over and over again. I'll leave that to the 360 fanbase.
The fact that anyone would actually compare a day one product to one that came out a full year later on it's respective console should be proof enough that R:fom was/is and special game. You don't get anyone trying to compare PD:0 to R:fom or Killzone II do you?
