This game is truly the best shooter game out there, in my opinion. The action steadily intensifies with each level. This game keeps you on your toes. The graphics are awesome! The sound on surround sound can almost frighten you. After finally completing it I can not wait for 2 to come out!
What's great about it: fast paced, graphics, storyline, length

This game is really good FPS. It has good graphics, a good storyline, and good multiplayer. I would strongly reccomend this game to anyone that owns a PS3 or is looking for a good FPS. The levels get progressively harder as the game goes on. You get a variety of weapons.

I bought this game after reading so many good reviews and people in other forums raving about it. This game is one of the most overrated I've played in recent memory. I grew very tired of the levels, same aliens, same weapons, same story. The hit detection and overall realism is pretty weak, and the graphics certainly aren't anything amazing. I do understand that this is one of the earlier release PS3 games, but there are much better games to spen your money on. I.E. Call of Duty 4!
What's great about it: Online Multiplayer
What's not so great: Been there, done that feeling throughout

Now that Blu Ray has just about won the format war I decided to get a PS3. I picked up Resistance based on the good reviews I've read. This is a very good FPS, especially since it was a launch title and a year and a half later the game seems to still hold its own. The game outputs at 720p (too bad not the full monty), but regardless it looks great The only downer is that you will meet a lot of the same enemies. There are different enemies throughout the game but for the most part you'll take on the main Chimera mutants. It does NOT take away from the fun though so pleae don't let that sway you from buying. 4 Stars!
What's great about it: Crisp graphics, plenty of action

This game is great, the weapons are very unique and show their lineage of insomniac games. The voice-acting is top notch and really makes the story work well. The enemies are well balanced and unique from little annoying monsters to massive tanks with varying abilities. This is one of the best PS3 games out there, if you don't own it, get it...and pre-order the sequel.
The only real complaints are regarding the multiplayer, they have the standards like deathmatch, capture the flag, and these have individual scoring and team versions. There is also the option of playing through the story with another person in split-screen, but not online. That can be a little annoying if you like online gaming, but there are lots of maps available, so it's not a total wash. I've also seen complaints about the draw distance not being as high as they wanted, but it seems similar to Call of Duty 4 which looks great too. Draw distance is how far you can see into the distance without the game obscuring it with smoke or something, it's not a big deal, more of an artistic decision.
Overall this is great, especially if you don't have your heart set on fantastic multiplayer.
What's great about it: Very inventive weapons and enemies, great action, intriguing story, and wonderful voice-acting
What's not so great: draw distance is a little low and not much for multiplayer

As the only game I purchased when I got my PS3, I was very glad to see how well the game was done! A long, detailed story line with genuine opportunity for replay kept me (and my friends) coming back for more. Played through no less that 3 times, it was fun to keep coming back and earning new weapons, which put twists into your strategy during gameplay. Great voice acting also helped to draw you into the storyline, giving you the feeling that this might actually have happened at one time, instead of the usual preachy salespitch that many games fall back on. If there is but one small problem I had- in some spots you notice that some more detail could have been present in such a highly-detailed game. It was only a few super minor things (such as a light bulb here and there or set of keys), and nothing that in any way took away from an otherwise EXCELLENT game! I think I'd recommend this for just about anyone looking to get a quality shooter experience but doesn't want a journey that's going to end too soon...
What's great about it: Incredibly Detailed Graphics, Solid Gameplay, Long Campaign Story

Three stars for the story line and challenge. But the online was boring and not much fun. Not much of a must buy game either. I had alot more fun offline then I did online. But I wouldnt go out of my way to buy it.
What's great about it: Good story line, fun, challenging
