Learn more about Resistance: Fall of Man. (Flash demo) For 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.

You'll Love It

For fans of the old Duke Nukem shooters, you might enjoy the similarities in Resistance: Fall of Man. Although the main character doesn't share Duke's verbal finesse and remains rather stoic, he still gets to put the hurt on some very ugly invaders. The graphics and attention to detail are amazingly realistic, and the weapons are totally unique to any other shooter. You'll enjoy the numerous ways in which to dispatch your foes. Although the storyline was too short for my tastes, it still drew me in to the very end... which left me wanting more. The good news is a sequel will be released later this year. The multiplayer also needs a little work. For one, it's not voice enabled, so communicating with your teammates for a coordinated attack is impossible. Secondly, it seems the humans and Chimera are not completely on equal ground, the humans having a considerable advantage. Humans are able to crouch, and the Chimera burst into flames and die after coming into contact with any open flame such as a burning vehicle in the street. Therefore, even an unevenly matched game with the humans seriously outnumbered can still fare well for the humans. I would still recommend this game simply for the single-player mode. It's well worth it.
What's great about it: Unique game with fantastic graphics
What's not so great: Story was too short, and multiplayer could be improved
I would recommend this to a friend!
