Sounds much better than Resistance 2. Can anyone comment on the transitions between areas in R3? One of the things that always bugged me about Resistance 2 was how abruptly it bounced between different areas without providing any context.

Thanks for the impressions. Totally sitting this one out it seems. I finally got around to playing the MP beta and it was basically shit all around. Horrible animations, bad envrionments, and forgettable gunplay. The genre has moved way beyond what they offer.

If the SP is what you say it is then they haven't changed much since R2. Pass.

Many others have also given their impression and have said that R3 is more like R1 then R2.

Its getting good reviews as well.

If this game came out in the summer when there was a big dry spell (for me) then I might have got it. But there is some truly amazing looking stuff coming out soon and I don't need to take a chance on something that has disappointed me previously.

I can't take the reviews seriously. R2 got 90's that nobody thought it deserved. In most cases I've seen R3 is getting a few points lower then that.

Did anyone besides me really enjoy Resistance 2's campaign? I mean, beyond just thinking it was mediocre? I've played just about every big FPS from this generation and R2 has my favorite campaign out of any of them.

Yeah, the transition from location A to B isn't as jarring as it was in R3.

That's rather disappointing to hear. The Move controls in KZ3 were sublime. Without a doubt the single best example of a motion controlled FPS to date. It felt absolutely wonderful.

I was really hoping Resistance 3 would be as good in that regard.

From that review video, TTP at least felt that R3 implementation was as good, even better in some ways. As he's probably world's biggest authority on all things Move related, that should probably make you feel better :p Afaik, he didn't like the ironsights though.

I enjoyed R2 but saying it is the best campaign this generation is crazy. I will enjoy R3 campaign no doubt but I will have more fun with other shooters this fall (guessing, would be happy to be blown away by R3)

Have a fun! Enjoy!

lol thanks.

Anyway, ADS is were Resistance 3 mostly differs from other Move compatible shooters. It adopts a fixed reticule instead of a detached one, which is poorly implemented but pretty much saved by the way camera assist works.

As for cursor responsiveness (from the hip) and deadzone settings (option to shrink it to basically nothing - use it), it's the best.

The language in the game depends on your system settings menu so I don't know how many different voice tracks are there.

I've played it in English but I also plan on playing it through with the Polish voice track to see how it holds up somewhere down the line.

It'll be interesting to see how well move players do online compared to DS3 players. I hope it's as much fun as KZ3 online with move.

Yeah, I don't even really understand why I feel that way. I just loved the variety of the environments and the fun weapons, and I guess that was enough to make it stand out to me. What's your favorite?

People are now putting down Resistance's gun-play wtf?, it may not the best of the best but it's always been good, it certainly doesn't feel "week", unless that's changed in R3 but judging the beta I thought the weapons felt great perhaps I'm missing something.
Click to expand...

its a matter of taste, like this review from CBS news

As with its predecessors, the star of Resistance 3 is its gun-play. In addition to its frenetic firefights and streamlined narrative, your arsenal has seen some modification as well.

Capture and hold control points on the map for points. The more/longer you hold them, the more points you get...standard fare.

I rarely complain, but this patch is taking forever to download. I have 25mb download speeds and this patch is at 5% with 300 minutes remaining. SMH. At this rate I will not get to play at all before work, ugh.

Oh if only it didn't have that fucking Move label and all those logos at the bottom. Ah well that's what the custom art thread is for. :)

It has a reverable cover without all the logos. It looks awesome. No need for the art thread.

Like a baws.

Thats how MP DLC should be handled. Maps == FREE
Yo JS tell your friends at SCEA and SCEE to officially release games in Argentina! Paying 90 bucks (Even worse waiting one or two weeks) sucks.

Every game should have 2 sided covers.. one with the BS extra logos and one with nothing just logo and art. Similar to what we as gamers have had to do ourselves. With that being said I had no idea the cover was like this. Anyone have a pic of it switched? (Stuck at work here)

Yeah, I don't understand. I downloaded the Assassins Creed Revelations Beta (which was 2.6 GB) in about 20 mins. It makes no sense. I have never seen it move this slow. I just checked my connection and its just as fast as it always is. I just wondering if I should turn it off and start it over.

Yeah, I hate downloading big things off of PSN because it is SLOW AS FUCK. Sony throttles the download speeds off the service.
