Join The Resistance

I just defeated Resistance Fall of Man and I have to say it feels like I am playing War Of The Worlds and I wouldn't be surprised if this game was based on it. It's a pretty good game with good graphics and fights. I found it a lot more exciting then Gears Of War and I can see why the two games are always compared to one another. When I first played this game I was always in a state of panic, trying to protect my squad and fight against the monstrous beings. After when I found out that the main protagonist Nathan Hale is the only survivor for a long period in the game. So seeing bodies after bodies fall to the floor it was no longer surprising or trying to find ways to save them. Even if I do manage to save one or two, when a movie sequence happens they will magically fall dead (probably from the shock of living.)
Hale is the only human that can with stand the attacks of Spires. While anyone else would be dead, with the virus of the Chimeran Hale is the only one who isn't. But it also seems that Hale is infected with something as glimpses of his eyes are shown to be a golden yellow and you get enhanced speed when you have a sniper gun. For a long while I thought Hale was a mute character, but he just seems to be the quiet type. His body language is portrait well in sequences that occur.

The one person who stood out for me in the whole story is Cartwright, a witty British soldier who will lend a hand once in a while. His skills at times I find to be plain luck, he can take down stalkers single handily and still can crack out a few British humor while at it. He was a strong help and probably the only soldier who didn't seem to be a generic copy of one another.

Everyone thinks that there is a "thing" going on between Rachael Parker and Hale, yes I see something. Captain Parker sees Hale as a science experiment. Hale who has no interest in the woman tries to avoid her as much possible by going on suicidal missions.

My favorite part in it was the driving through the gates with Cartwright shooting the Chimeran soldiers. Cheering you on to run them over with the vehicle and cheering when you do. I love driving games like that not racing but driving parts like in 24 The Game or Raw Danger. I also liked when Hale and a few others had to hold off the Chimeran while others blew up London Bridges. I admit a couple of times I did sing London Bridges falling down, falling down, falling down. Mostly because it was 5:30 am when I finally gotten to the part and I was silly from being tired.
Resistance Fall of Man is a first person shooter it was a game that I tried to ignore for a very long time. In fears of getting a bad case of simulation sickness once again. But I found a way to avoid it with drinking lots of liquids I made a large jug of apple juice with small breaks here and there. I felt little to no dizziness and managed to defeat the game in two days.

I am looking forward to Resistance 2 there is no release date so far for the game but the trailer I saw looked awesome and a lot better then the first one. As well as footage as Hale being less human from the beatings he gets from a massive chimeran he tries to take down. The other Resistance game that is coming out isn't well known compared to Resistance 2, is the third person shooter Resistance Retribution.
