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.

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
