Will I enjoy Resistance?

[quote name='dmaul1114']Mana Knight is a good person to throw on ignore. Every console area here as there one, completely insufferable fanboy, and he is it for the PS3 forum.[/QUOTE]You're always biased and never contribute anything worthwhile to the Sony forum, which is why I have had you on ignore for the longest time, and you still are. ;)
[quote name='jousley']Inf^Shini, using Mana Knight's logic, since you don't have an Xbox Live handle in your profile, you don't own a 360...so you are biased. ;)

I agree with you about Resistance. Its an excellent game if you like FPS...get it now.

360s have had some problems with the RroD...kind of like the first batch of PS2's has problems with Dirty disk/unable to read errors. I just find it entertaining how the Sony camp always says "Well 360 had a year head start on us!" as an excuse...I do remember another system getting a year head start jump on the major competition and riding that tide to an overall victory...and that was the PS2.

As for games coming out on the 360, Im looking forward to Mass Effect and Ace Combat on the 360. I don't care if something is coming out also on the PC...I don't play games on the PC...I prefer consoles. From your "nothing coming out on PC either" comment, I will have to guess that your name is on the "Don't bring out Devil May Cry on 360! Its one of our only hopes!" petiton...am I right?

BTW, Inf^Shini.. I love that gif. in your signature...gave me a good laugh :)[/QUOTE]Just don't take me too seriously in arguments, because in all reality, I do like all platforms, but my bias does leans towards PlayStation, mostly because it's always the platform that suits me the best (and I'm just a big fan of the stuff Sony themselves makes). Sometimes negative comments towards my platform of choice can feel like a big punch in the stomach, so I get a little crazy defending them. ;) I don't mean anything personal I said to you.
[quote name='rendil']I disagree. I find Mana Knight to be hugely entertaining. Plus, he is at least a good source of Sony news, despite the spin that it arrives with.

Not to mention he heavily contributes to most threads, so you'll probably see others quoting him even if you do put him on ignore.[/QUOTE]Well, I sometimes do put some comedy on in off-topic, but that's another story. ;)

Yeah, I definitely watch out for info and I definitely like to share it with CAG members. Due to having access to some SCEA stuff (I can't say what, this has nothing to do with G.A.P. though), I sometimes find out some interesting things before others.

Anyway, getting back to the topic, just play Resistance yourself and see if you like it (the demo and all).;) I can't guarantee whether it will make you like the game, because I'll admit it didn't exactly push me to want the game. But when I bought the full version, I ended up liking it much more and continue to like it the more I play it.

No bias here. I hate all 3 next gen consoles equally for differing reasons. :D

But glad to know I annoyed you, as 90% of the point of posting on game boards is to annoy fanboys like yourself that for some reason have some kind of loyalty to any of these overpriced hunks of plastic.
 
I hated it, thought it was a waste of time, wondered how the hype was justified, and thought is was no where near a next gen game.
 
[quote name='tenaciousjack']
Ill download the demo and give it a shot[/QUOTE]

Well, that's kind of lame.

I assumed you didn't have broadband or something so the demo wasn't an option.

If you want to know whether you'd enjoy a game, and there's a free demo available, playing that is the only way to go.

Rather than getting advice from a bunch of us nerds on the internet, many of whom will give biased opinions.

By my PC comment, what I meant was don't bother mentioning games that are going to be released on the 360 and PC b/c I'll always be buying the PC version. I'm a big fan of PC gaming since it always allows for the most customization/freedom and graphical capabilities. (i.e. Half-Life 2, F.E.A.R., the up-and-coming Episode 2 as well as UT3)

lol at the DMC thing, I wasn't aware of there was a petition! Haha, it would be nice to keep it exclusive to the PS3, but hey, going multi-platform seems to be the trend nowadays so I can't fight that. *Puts down name anyways ;)*

Haha, I still get laughs outta that .gif :lol: I don't think I'll be replacing it anytime soon, although I might add another one :whistle2:k
I have a whole folder of funny gifs, I should swap em out once in a while :whistle2:k

Hmmm, since your around, I'll ask this. What do achievements do for 360 users??? I've heard and read about them, but never understood their purpose :whistle2:k

Mana may lean in Sony's favor, but he articulates and explain his reasons without vulgar/childish taunts/comments that you would normally see on a site, not to mention he does own a 360. He just gets bombed once in a while on b/c he defends Sony most of the time and I don't think certain people are willing to ease up on him now.

Just for the record, I have a Wii/PS3 (lookin' to pick up a 360 soon) but I play on my DS and PC in most of my free time (damn you CS Source)

Back on topic, I thinks it funny that he just decided to DL the demo and try that now :lol:
Ya coulda done that in the first place dude! The part that I really liked in Resistance was the
fight before and after you get the sniper rifle. Fighting the huge Chimera at the beginning of the level was fun and satisfying to see him meet his demise, and the firefight after was pretty awesome (Especially on Superhuman :D)

[/QUOTE]

Nothing. Just add to your gamerscore. So just a bragging rights thing for nerds I guess.

But I guess the good part, for those that care enough to try for them, is that they do extend the life of the game since you have to replay and do a lot of random/hard shit to get them. So I guess that's a positive with games being $60.

I seldom replay games, could care less about gamerscores, doing random shit to get achievements etc., so I just ignore them.

I still don't get it really. I mean my first two cars have been Subaru, but I don't go around saying Honda sucks etc.

It's one thing to be loyal to a company and give them your business. It's another to get all defensive when someone says something negative about them, or to go around bashing the competition.

Just buy what you like, and be happy with it. Who cares what net nerds say about it? And what's the point in wasting time bashing the other companies products that you don't own?

Just a pathetic complex IMO.
 
Yeah, I was never big on achievement points either. Some of my friends think its the end all be all of totally "beating" a game...They don't really do much for me, but it IS kind of cool to see it pop up for something you did..its like a little "Congratulations!" to you sometimes. Some people obsess about them though, the same as they obsess about ranking scores or something. I just measure my fun in a game on how much FUN Im having ;)

I go to College, I won't be taking English til' later in the semester, and if I don't continue implementing all that I've learned til' now into something useful and applying it to everyday life, I'll get rusty and I don't like that.

I can't exactly start talking all sophisticated n' all dat out in public, then I'll confuse the hell outta some other people I kick it with. It's also a time-killer for me as well ;)

Resistance was fun. The only problems I had with it was that it got repetitive during the end and the weapon priority was off.
 
I own both... realistically my PS3 has been collecting dust. With that said I was never an xbox fan but the 360 does have the games right now. The system blows.

I actually have a couple of reasons as to why I post in forums, aside from obtaining info, asking questions n' such.

You might think that but then I would think you are crazy to think so. Maybe on an old TV set but otherwise I don't see how you can compare the 2 graphically... Maybe you are thinking of art direction or style???

I'm not a fan of FPS, in that I won't play a game just because it is one, and I really enjoyed it when I rented it a few months ago. I didn't get the chance to try out the multiplayer, though.

~this is an article from N4G talking about Halo 3 vs Resistance~

Was up everyone now that everyone has played halo 3 extensivly including me i really would like to get the gamers thoughts on this comparison because i feel that the way the media and the industry as a whole talk about halo. it's like halo is the best game ever or as if nothing can top this game and to me there's games out now that's better than halo but wasn't lucky enough to have the type of commercial promotion and appeal to sustain the hype.

1. Graphics: after playing resistance fall of man and halo 3 I feel Resistance has the better graphics why?
Reasons.
Resistance character models are much more detailed than halo 3. halo 3 is a decent step up from halo 2 but considering this being the second year for 360 with games like gears of war on that systems roster i would expect halo to be much better in the graphics dept. especially being such a flagship title.
Environments are much bigger and much more full than in halo's there's more effects in resistance like the debris , the paper flowing in the air the dust particles so many other little things that weren't in halo 3 that adds more graphic appeal.

2.Gameplay: both games run very smooth but resistance to me is better as well why?
Resistance has way more variety of weapons and you can carry alot more weapons as well. each weapon has a secondary fire and it changes the way you play the game and fight against enemies. such as the AUGER weapon that shoots through walls but also shoot a shield so that you can stand in front of enemies and kill them without them killing you it's reallyh amazing and unique and it's also a first in a FPS shooter. The battles are a lot bigger in resistance with more people on screen all highly detailed as well

3. Story: Both stories are great hands down i feel halo is a little better because it has a more epic feel to it as if your reading a novel or some sort which is amazing

4.fun factor. i give it too resistance again. 40 player online with bigger maps and better weapons destroys halo 3 which only has 16 player online and the maps are not too different from what you get in halo 2 plain and wide open that's basically it. Also there's something alot of people don't know about resistance but when you talk through your headset your character mouth moves so whatever you say it could was up or get down or watch out whatever it is your character moves his mouth at the same time you say it so when your online with your friends and your looking at them before you get in too battle start talking and you will see that what ever your friend says through the bluetooth you his character mouth moving at the exact same time he's talking it's truly amazing to see and that has never been done in a FPS shooter as well PLEASE RESPOND. and don't forget resistance is a 2 million seller on it's first go round and still selling.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Has anyone noticed that the character's mouth moves when the person controlling that character talks during resistance's online multiplayer? when a person is chatting I've never been next to him. we've got to test that out on inResistance night?!!!!!!
 
Yeah, we gotta test that out too sometime. Maybe a few of us should get into a game together and see how it works.

Yeah, there's a big thread at GAF right now over this and it gained several replies quickly. There seems to be a lot more supporters than I thought and many who crapped on Resistance barely played it (and admitted it).

Is that from sonydefenseforce.com? Its just silly. No reasonable journalistic outlet would even try comparing those two games. It would be like Ebert and Roeper writing an article comparing The Godfather to A Bronx Tale.
 
That last part was a mess. "Oooohhh...the mouth movement syncs with your speech!!!!" It's a nice touch for sure, but it's something you'll ooh and ah once and forget about, if you even notice it in the first place.

I'll somewhat agree with the great weapons argument (I think Resistance has the best weapon designs of any FPS I've seen), but Halo has the great balance with grenades and weapon combat. Plus there's an element of tactics in the weapons you use given your limited availability. Dual wield vs. one gun/grenades combo. The variety in weapons and fire modes in Resistance is negated a bit when you play online. There aren't as many pre-made situations where the guns' special functions are brought into play.

Graphically, I do think Resistance looks better. The Halo characters, especially the humans, look horrendous in comparison.

Gameplay, though, especially online (I prefer Resistance's single player campaign), it's tough to argue against Halo. Despite the limitation of 16 players compared to 40 players, there's still this hectic and frenetic action given the map design, vehicles, and game modes. It's as good as you're gonna get when it comes to multiplayer FPSs.

Whaaaaaaaat? I loved both of those movies and A Bronx Tale is definitely on par with The Godfather. I don't wanna waste time arguing the point, but A Bronx Tale was definitely a VERY good movie, and one of my favorites of all time.
 
well so far we know that halo runs at 640p, and resistance runs at 720p
halo3 30fps, and resistance at 60fps,
resistance 40 player max online, halo 16 player max online..

we can do our own research to find out about character models and see how many characters are on screen, and whatever else the article alleges.
I'm not going to let Resistance be looked over by a over hyped game that turned out to be inferior.

[quote name='Thomas96']so whose bronx tale and whose godfather?[/quote]
Bronx Tale = Resistance

Godfather = Halo (Ironically, both are a trilogy)

Only came up with that result b/c Bronx Tale was one movie and Godfather was a Trilogy, and since Resistance was one game and Halo has put out Trilogy, it seemed fitting :p

The simple fact is that both are great games, but Halo got better ratings. As for fanboys inflating scores....look in the mirror, Mana and Inf^Shini.. The people looking back at you are Sony fanboys that have been and will continue to snuggle up next to all things Sony.

You talk about hype, and then you say "Wait till Metal Gear! Wait till Resistance 2!" You better hope that those games are good, because, no matter if you will agree or admit it...Sony is slowly killing itself.

most of these websites don't have the balls to give a big game a bad review score, let alone admit that HALO 3 might not be the greatest FPS ever, or presently available. The fact that someone even wrote something on this subject surprised me and that's why I posted it. However, I had mad some of these same points in the Resistance thread (official) when Halo 3 was released.

Thomas96, do you own a 360 and have you played Halo 3? I'm just curious. I still stick to my guns that both games are great...I would have liked Resistance much better if they had toned down the monochrome BROWN shade on everything....But thats a personal preference. I just find that most people that argue about this game being no good are usually people that haven't even played that game. Just wondering if you fall into that camp as well.

I'm itching to get a 360 and pick up Halo 3 but I've been waiting on the confirmation of the new Falcon Mobo and one of those bundles they'll be putting out soon. Btw, MOST of my GAMING is done on my PC, and in second comes my DS at present.

I'm just commenting in a section of the forum where I actually own the console. Otherwise you'd see me over at the 360 section a lot more, which I also post at once in awhile, ask LinkinPrime if ya want, he helped point me in the direction in of when and where to look for 360 deals.

The point of my post was wait til the sequel to Resistance comes out to see where it'll stand, since Halo already had a huge fan base to begin with. I never posted anything about inflated scores and whatnot, that was Thomas, so I don't know why your aiming at me. Keep in mind, I haven't made any remarks directly at Halo 3 b/c I haven't played it......yet.
 
Looks like Thomas does have a 360 (you need to put more time into Bioshock btw...great FPS). Anyway, I don't understand it when the argument goes towards, "Well the reviewers got bribed," or "Reviewers have a bias towards certain consoles. Even system specific reviewers can agree that Halo's MP is unmatched. And you can't honestly believe that all these people that jump onto Halo are bandwagon, "let's play 'cause everyone else is playing it". If the game's shit, people will stop playing, but since Halo 2, the game's garnered a huge audience, especially with the multiplayer aspect of the game.

I still stick to my opinion that Resistance's single player game is better.
 
For the recod I am the fanboy.. Don't get me wrong, I have a 360 as well, PS3, and I don't dislike any system. However, there's a lot of injustice going on between the games, and I don't want people to overlook Resistance's accomplishments, just because it isn't HALO 3, or just because it isn't Popular, or just because it was on a unpopular console.
