CLOSING COMMENTS

Resistance 3 offers the same polished experience as the last two games in the series, only this time the action is more focused and tightly structured. Insomniac clearly wanted to make this game a more harrowing and personal experience, and by focusing its attention on a smaller, more personal story within the invasion, it has succeeded without question. While the big military operations have been replaced by more intimate battles, the sense of scale is as intimidating as ever. This is a surprisingly emotional cinematic roller-coaster of a campaign that never lets up. 

Likewise, multiplayer in the game remains of the same high caliber as before. The number of players in its multiplayer modes may have been reduced, but fans should rest assured that the quality of the experience remains first-class. Resistance 3 is a must-buy for PS3 shooter fans.

IGN RATINGS FOR RESISTANCE 3 (PS3)

RatingDescription
out of 10 Click here for ratings guide
9.0 Presentation
The visual style is consistent from its menus, right through to the actual game. Layouts of Abilities and matchmaking options are clear and concise.
8.5 Graphics
While the game isn't quite the technical marvel that Killzone 3 is, it's still as pretty as this kind of bleak and grimy experience can be.
9.5 Sound
Stunning sound effects and music help create one hell of an unnerving atmosphere. Voice acting is also top-notch.
9.0 Gameplay
Resistance 3 feels and controls wonderfully. The campaign is always exciting and the game's weapons are more awesome than ever.
9.0 Lasting Appeal
A decent-sized campaign is complemented by a fun co-operative mode, and excellent multiplayer. Unlocks in multiplayer will keep players coming back for more.
9.0
OVERALL
Amazing

I dont know if that score is clear to any of you but they gave it a 9.0

Really great score fora great game. Its a pity about the graphics though. Wish Insomniac would make another resistance game with better graphics.

Will be playing no matter what the reviews say. I like how Sony often lets reviewers review exclusives early it shows they have confidence in the quality.



Awesome score!

Agreed, but they have tried a bit harder this time so hopefully they get their reward.

+Its the end of the trilogy.That must account for something.

Well yes.  I played through ROFM and Res2 so I will have to play through this at some point.  Many will feel that way I think.

Don't you think that the ending from R2 should have been kept for last?It seems that some are disappointed with R3's ending.

When i think of Resistance i think of the fight against the infection inside Hale's body.His ability to resist it.The series should have ended along with Hale's complete infection,in my opinion.
