I'm a computer gamer so please take the control issues with that in mind. I have tried other console fps in the past including halo and have been very unimpressed unimpressed. Along with my admited lack of skill (controls are akward without a keyboard and mouse for me) The game play always seems to be over hyped compared to games like wolfenstein: ET Counter Strike source, Half life 2, the battle field games. With resistance although I still find the controls akward, The game play is excelent. The AI is great. I blasted my way through an enemy posistion and hid behind a truck expecting to snipe at anouther distant enemy position. When I peek out the other side of the truck the enemy was gone. Suddenly I'm taking damage from the other side of the truck. They blasted through my flank!, and did it quickly. A certain scene from Jerassic Park flashed through my mind as my unskilled rear was handed to me "Clever girl". The weapons are inovative. Some of the ones I tried range from ww2 stile rifles and shot guns to fire and forget machine guns, and shield emiters. I may just take this opertunity to learn to aim. I am holding on my opinion of the grafics and online play as I am waiting for my replacement component Monster Cables, and I Havnt tried online yet. Before you hold the defective cables against monster They are 6 year old ps2 component AV (They are compatable) and monster is replacing them no questions asked and no proof of purchase. I would recomend anyone spend the extra money for monster cables, I suppose thats a seperate review though.

Not sure if I like it yet

Before I start my review, let me make clear that I am not a hard-core gamer (play 4-6 hours per week), and I do not enjoy shooting games as much as racing or hand-to-hand combat. I have had this game for almost 3 months now and I have played it for not more than 12 hours (I play boxing all the time). So I am not sure if I am even eligible to review this product yet, but I'll take my chances.

The thing I like most about this game is the graphics. It really cannot be expressed in words. Certain scenes during the gameplay look as real as a scene from a movie. The explosions, burning vehicles, crashing planes... everything looks top notch.

Now the thing that I dont like (and this is not the fault of this game) is that its too difficult for me. I still haven't mastered taking aim with the joystick. Before I could find my aim, I get killed. I really wish there was a gun like accessory which I could just aim at the screen and shoot (like Wii). This game is so difficult that it makes me wanna not play.

OK but not very impressive

Everything about this game is average. I know its just a launch title but when this game and system is so overhyped i expected alot more. The sound is ok, the controls are decent but it just doesnt seem to have the quality of game im used to on XBOX 360. I am sure this will not be an issue later on but i was expecting more from a $600.00 machine. I just hope the other games coming out are not just XB360 ports. Let us pray

ok, but doesn't live up to the hype

After reading all the reviews, I had high hopes for Resistance: Fall of Man on the PS3. After playing around 4 hours into the game, it doesn't live up to the hype.

I'm a huge fan of the Half Life series of games, especially HL2, and have played them for years. And the plot elements for R:FoM resemble those of HL2 very closely: alien race attempting to colonize Earth, one man can save it, female assistant. I was eagerly looking for a game that could one-up the competition.

So, with that comparison in mind, I was sorely disappointed when R:FoM brought nothing new to the table, and didn't even rise to the level of HL2.

Very little of the physics engine is used; some boxes are destructible, and very little else. There don't appear to be any puzzles, mazes, hidden items, nothing - this takes away a lot of the challenge and fun. The graphics are good with flames and smoke the best I've seen, but everything else is on par with pc-based games. NPC artificial intelligence? It might be there, but the enemies hardly ever moved beyond a "feet" worth of real estate, proving easy targets.

On the positive side, the voice narration is great, and very believable. The maps and graphics in the cut-scenes are interesting and relevant.

Summary: If you're a fan of HL2, skip this one. The price isn't justified. Overall, it felt like the ps3's cell processor was underutilized, and the game was a rehash of better games on the market for many years already.

The BEST PS3 game so far.

This is THE best PS3 game so far. Much better than GTA4 and after playing MGS4 for 3 hours I think RFOM is much better than that too. RFOM game rooms online are still packed! It's June 2008 and this game has been out a long time and is STILLso much fun that yes, tons of people are still online! It's that fun!!! Anyone that doesn't own this game is missing out!!!!!

Maybe Resident Evil 5 will be better but nothing else is so far!

If you own a 360, dont waste your money on this game...

I bought my PS3 for Blu-ray playback but decided to give Resistance: Fall Of Man a try. Compared to Gears Of War, Halo 3, or COD4 on my 360 this game is a 7/10 at best. The graphics look dated, the AI is bad, the multiplayer isnt fun. Also, the game maxes at 720p for resolution and dont let the 40 players get you excited like it did me, PSN cant handle it and you will be lucky if you can get in a match with 16 players.

I have probably played no more than five hours of this game and have gone back to my 360 and Wii. This game often gets compared to Gear Of War but they are not even in the same league. This game has more in common with a game like Return To Castle Wolfenstein than it does any of the current shooters available.

If all you have is a PS3 than this game is worth getting because honestly there isnt much else. But if you have a 360 and a PS3, stay away from this one and play the better shooter games available on the 360. If you need to try it a rental is the only way to go. I wish I did that or downloaded the demo. From now on I will not buy PS3 games without trying the demo.

WITHOUT a dOUBT , tha Best Game for the PS3 RIGHT NOW

Resistance is one of those games that are worth buying a system for. Sounds like a lot but it s a very good game. The Playstation 3 isn't exactly the system to buy right now, The Nintendo Wii is a lot cheaper and has the most innovative gameplay a system can have, and the XBox 360 has a year over the PS3 with almost triple the library that the PS3 has right now. But even with all that, the PS3 is still a system that has the most potential out of the 3, once the games come in its gonna be on.

Now the actual game is a great one, the story isn't exactly the best or the most original but it does its job. The graphics are great but still lacks the graphical power of games like "Gears of War". The game has great controls, that should feel natural to people that have played FPS shooters on the PS2, even to those that haven't played the controls will feel like second nature once you play 5 minutes through, plus the game makes good use of the new Six-Axis controller (Example; when an enemie jumps on you, you can shake the controller to shake off the enemy). Since this game is from the same people that brought you "Ratchet & Clank" the weapons in this game are unique and very fun to play with, each weapon has a special secondary fire for example the Shotgun has a double fire, Sniper Rifle can slow down time for better accuracy and the most stand out weapon of the game is the AUGER which can shoot through walls and can create a shield for its secondary fire. The sound/music in this game isn't exactly that special especially compared to the "Metal Gear Solid" series.

Another thingabout this game is the ONLINE PLAY, online for this game is one of the best supporting up to 40 players playing at once. There are about 8 different levels with different settings depending on the number of players. The Pace online is crazy as f*** especially when there are a lot of people, you can also customize your character for online with plenty of options, honestly I Like this better than Halo's online play (People are gonna hate me) the reason is because even though the physics in this game aren't exactley realistic, the pace and the delivery is a lot more friendly than Halo's. All in all this game isn't exactley a killer app FPS like Halo, but it has a special feel to it that you can't copy their style or gameplay, so if you have a Playstation 3 and don't have this game, get it right away.

Great game! The collaborative 2 player mode is really fun and so is the 1 player mode. The graphics and game play are very good and the game is entertaining. My only complaint is that the program does not support 1080 and you cannot save multiple 1 player games. Be careful... this game is addictive!!! :)

The details make it great...

JAFPS? (Just Another First Person Shooter) NO! Not this game!

The gameplay is always smooth, the aiming precise, and the enemies are no slouch. There is no slowdown or choppiness even when the screen is full of enemies, explosions, and vehicles. This is true when online as well.

There are lots of checkpoints spread through each level, and the pacing gives you time to breathe, and save often. You will need the frequent pauses- because while some of the levels may seem short, they are very intense. One example: in one area the only task between saves is to take out an enemy tank. The problem is that you are all alone, and the enemy tank is about the biggest enemy you've seen in the game so far! Brilliant!

If you get tired of killing waves of enemies, you can try to unlock all the extras in the game. These range from developer vids, to concept art, to skins for your online avatar. Try to find all the Skill Points in the game (fun little tasks that are hinted at by the name of each) to unlock everything.

Finally theres the online play, which is excellent. International play has been recently added as a free upgrade, and it works well. I'm in the USA, and hearing a room full of British accents trying to find that camped sniper never gets old!

If you have been shopping for a PS3 at all, you have already read about Resistance and how good it is. I'll tell you all the Resistance love isn't hype, it's true. Resistance: Fall of Man isn't just a launch classic, it's an instant classic.
