Resistance: Fall of Man Greatest Hits: PlayStation 3

Model number: UPDATE | SKU: 7917025

Learn more about Resistance: Fall of Man. (Flash demo) SynopsisFor decades, populations across Europe and Asia have felt the fury of Chimera: a rapidly mutating parasite that infects other forms of life, rendering its victims into new Chimera. The unstoppable spread of this deadly disease has made its way to the shores of England in Fall of Man. It's now 1951, and while playing the part of U.S. Army Ranger Nathan Hale, you must fight alongside a group of British resistance soldiers in a last-ditch effort to free England and the rest of the world from the stranglehold of this ruinous plague. Exotic weapons and vehicles team with proprietary physics to create a unique human and Chimeran arsenal. While on your mission, you'll encounter lifelike characters and creatures who display sophisticated behaviors and interactions in complex environments for an immersive experience. You'll be subjected to the chaos of large, crowded battlefields in close combat within infested military command centers and decimated urban landscapes based on actual locations in Great Britain.

What's great about it: Smart AI, Very Good Weapons, Interesting Story
What's not so great: A little bloody

"Resistance is one of the 2 games that was launched with the PS3. Therefore, it's the oldest PS3 game ever, and yet it still amazes me.

The storyline is a dark outlook: In an alternate 1950's where World War 2 never happened, the Chimera, aliens, have emerged from Russia and spread out to take over all of Asia, and continental Europe. Great Britain, being an island, was thought to be safe: they were wrong. The Chimera have taken over it. You, as Nathan Hale, are part of an American force sent to liberate Britain. This is where the game begins.

The two things that makes this game better than most FPS are the AI and the weapons. The AI are smart. Unlike in most games where enemies just stay in one place or repeat the same movement patternt, the Chimera actually take cover, hide, and work together to overhwhelm you. And you allies are smart too. They behave like real soldiers would in combat, but when you have to move with them, they sometimes behve oddly. The weapons are very nice. Each weapon is unique and unseen in other games (one of Insomniac Games' specalties, weapon design) The main starting weapon is basic, an assault rifle with built in grenade launcher. But as you advance, you find much different weapons. The Bullseye, the main weapon Chimeran soldiers use, has a high rate of fire and is quite powerful. Also, it can shoot special "tags". If a tag hits an enemy, all normal bullets will home in on it until the enemy is killed or after the tag wears off. There is also a gun that can shoot through walls and create shields in front of you.

The graphics aren't perfect, but they're very good, especially considering that it's very old for a PS3 game.

This game also has a great multiplayer aspect. There is a co-op campaign, where you play the exact same campaign you play in single-player, but with more enemies to make up for the extra friend you have to play. This campaign's progress is seperate from the single-player, so you can play the game with your friend without messing with your progress in the single-player campaign. There is also a 4 player splitscreen versus. ANd you can play online with a total of 40 people. However, since this game's sequel has been released, I doubt there will be many people online to play with.

The only bad things I can think of this game is what is typical in an M game, has blood and gore. However, it's not that bad. blood sometimes comes out when you shoot an enemy. And in the game you will encounter small, scorpian like creatures. When you shoot them, they die in a small explosion of blood, and you see all of their limbs lying around. But that''s really as bad as it gets."

What's great about it: Great graphics, gameplay, and multiplayer
What's not so great: Variety of enemies

"An awsome first-person shooter. The concept is similar to Area: 51 for PS2. A human/alien bi-product due to following orders on a mission. The plot takes you to many places in England to fight off the Chimera; an appearent invasion that can't be stopped. The weapons in this game are out of this world and so many to choose from that killing an enemy is exciting each and every time. You can play in different difficulties, get skill points to unlock extras, and play online muliplayer. At $29.99 it is a steal!!!"

What's great about it: everything
What's not so great: shooting at a dead chimera on the ground does not give AI reaction (blood or twitches)

"i was blown away when i first played this game, it made me feel greatly exited like when i was 14 and got my sega genesis. i can't wait for the 2nd sequel so i can have the same feeling all over again, thanks SONY now i will never have to leave my room again."

What's great about it: fun, awesome, long, challenging, cool guns, good graphics, amazing story
What's not so great: new one in 2 weeks

"This is in my opinion the best game on the ps3. Although the next one is coming out in around 2 or 3 weeks, I think it is a great buy, especially for only $30. You can still play it before and after it comes out, and you can beat it before it comes out. Bottomline: Go buy it if you have $30."

What's great about it: Awesome graphics, great controls
What's not so great: Very repetitive. You just kill creatures in different environments not truely a bad thing.

"Awesome game without a doubt purchase this. I'm not a hardcore gamer and I enjoyed this very much. Repetitive I must say from level to level but the environments make up for it. An oustanding game definitely look into this purchase plus its $29.99, you can't go wrong."
