Resistance: Fall Of Man

[Garibaldi]

Watched the IGN video review, single player still looks duller than a bag of spanners but multi could be quite diverting - are there any vehicles in the latter mode, though?

1UP have their Resistance review up, written by the fragrant Garnett Lee:

They give it an 8.5.

Comparing it to GoW is like comparing apples and oranges. One is a fast-paced FPS, the other a third person game that's centred around cover mechanics.

so which is the fast paced fruit, the apple or the orange?

The apple is attacked directly by the mouth, and with no need for peeling. Hence it is first-person and fast paced.

The orange is peeled carefully, the sweet insides contemplated from afar. Once ready for eating, it is segmented and only then brought to the mouth. Hence it is third person and more celebral.

The orange. It has more kick to it.

Watched the ign review. Hasn't impressed me in terms of graphics at least. Look far too clean and clinical and lacking atmosphere.

Says the controls are good though which is nice to hear considering my doubts about the controller.

Seriously though, something like call of duty seems to have oodles more atmosphere.

EUROGAMER'S review is up.

and its a surprise

7/10

[Roboplegic Wrongcock]

EUROGAMER'S is up.

and its a surprise

7/10

Does that include the MP as well or are EG doing that later?...

[Lorfarius]

EUROGAMER'S review is up.

7/10

Doesnt surprise me at all. PS3 has average FPS. First of many Im sure.

[jcafarley]

I reckon Edge will do this:

Resistance: 9/10

Gears of War: 8/10

Zelda: 8/10

I just have a feeling.

[tyler]

Zelda 9

Gears 8

Resistance 6

You heard it here first.

[murray]

I'm going for:

Zelda 9

Gears 9

Resistance 7

[jcafarley]

I just have a feeling that Edge will REALLY wank off over the PS3, hence the high resistance score.

[Rudderless]

Zelda - 8

Gears - 8

Resistance - 8

Facts.

[murray]

No. For 'facts' - see above. (My Post)

I think Motorstorm will score higher than Resistance...

[barkbat]

Zelda - 10

Gears - 9

Resistance - 6

Undiluted fact.

[murray]

WHAT

[Mr Do 71]

Zelda - 10

Gears - 9

Resistance - 6

Undiluted fact.

I reckon this as well

[Rushy]

I reckon

Zelda 10

Gears 8

Resistance 6

Especially after just reading Eurogamers 7/10 review of Resistance which actually reads more like a 6. Generic FPS me-do...its PDZ0 all over again.

[Hello Goaty ♥]

Zelda 9

Gears 9

Resistance: Review copy never turned up.

what did PDZ get from Edge? And when is the next issue out?

IIRC PDZ0 got 7/10 in EDGE. Edeg is out 23rd November.

[Vemsie]

Zelda: 10

Gears: 9

Resistance: 8

[Monkichi 3.0]

Zelda 9

Gears 8

Resitance 7

Maybe even:

Zelda 9

Gears 9

Resistance 6

[jcafarley]

I still think people will be surprised with the Resistance score. Edge are the only people who thought (at the time) that Sony had a good E3... I bet there will be an interview with Phil Harrison, complete with a gushing overview of the system.

[Harsin]

Are Insomniac a Britsh Dev, I forget? If they are then an inflated Edge score for Resistance wouldn't be that surprising based on past form.

[barkbat]

Yeah but edge are very hard on competent but unadventurous FPSs.

Look at Area 51 and project snowblind and black.

Black got an 8.

Edge were quite hard on Resistance in their preview last issue so I wouldn't expect a good score.
