While on your mission, you'll encounter lifelike characters and creatures who display sophisticated behaviors and interactions in complex environments for an immersive experience.

First-person shooters have come a long way over the past several years. From some of the earliest classic games such as Doom and Wolfenstein to the more modern and revolutionary titles such as Halo and now Resistance: Fall of Man, first-person shooters have developed a widely popular action-packed genre among gamers across the globe. While some may stand out stronger than others, R:FoM does not stint or fall away from being a well-made game. R:FoM offers a unique story with several twists and at the same time offers engaging, and often, adrenaline pumping firefights. From having fluid, user-friendly controls similar to those found in other widely-known FPS, rather intelligent enemy A.I., powerful weaponry and vehicles in the campaign, competitive multiplayer, and providing a variety of levels, R:FoM truly stands as one of the best shooters currently on the market. Although it may lag in the main protagonist's character development, R:FoM easily compensates for this minor short-coming by providing detailed next-gen graphics and high quality sound. Resistance: Fall of Man for the Playstation 3 is truly a game worth playing and will make a fine addition to fans of the genre.
