agreed, campaign wise at least. In coop R2 is the clear winner and R1 still has the best MPJB1981 said:

Holy shit, you guys talking about the campaign are getting me so excited. R1 is still one of my favorite shooter campaigns, and you are telling me it is even better?! Can't wait to go pick this up tomorrow.

The campaign is pretty damn good so far. I also like the weather effects and all of the dust, particles, etc. flying. I'm recommending this to a lot of people.

So I was the crazy guy who made that thread saying R1 is one of the best shooters this gen. Well R3 has just surpassed that. Maybe in two years I'll make one regarding R3 so it sends GAF into an uproar again. =P

yup, partial fix for that is done, and more is on the way. 1.02 should improve some of it. it's a top priority issue still to ensure it's resolved
All I can say is wow. What a huge step over the first two games. I think people really need to pop those in for comparison cuz they absolutely blew them away. They finally delivered audio and visuals that feel unique and special. The gameplay simply feels great and the way it's presented is a huge step forward. It feels as if Insomniac has really grown as a developer.

Can anyone tell me if I'll get any Hale story payoff without spoiling it?

Sounds like exactly why I liked the first one. I always thought the MP of R1 felt like Quake 3 and liked that R1 felt like an arcadey PC shooter.
Waiting to see more opinions of the R1 crew. I had some fun trying out the beta last night. Felt a lot closer to R1 than to R2 but I wish the movement speed was upped a bit more. I was thinking I'd be skipping over an Insomniac release which I haven't done since I discovered Ratchet and Clank on PS2. I'm being pulled back.

is that even POSSIBLE
I think the bigger spoiler would be even knowing if something like that is in the game.

Boom! Bitch-slapped!
Up to the boat level so far. If the first hour is any indication of the remainder of the game, it is not wise to play if you have a heart condition.

I wish I could go back in time and have Sony marketing put this quote on the back of the box.
so yea i just went 35-5, got combat armor twice on human side, didn't even play as chimera. newcomers are not going to have a lot of fun in the early going. hope people actually stick with the MP, can see them getting really frustrated. the prison map looks great, btw. great lighting. and seaside got another layer of polish. but that hitching man. i reallly hope that is fixed, it's pretty much a dealbreaker.
After finishing the game earlier today, here are some thoughts..
I wish the health system was like R1. I know you can unlock that mode, but I wish it was like that from the get go. R1's health system had the best of both worlds (the health pack/regen worlds)
I agree with whoever said some parts are reminiscent of Half Life 2. There's a section in the game that is very similar to the
section in HL2.
The Atomizer is fuck awesome.
The ending: If this is really the end of the Resistance series (didn't someone say that?) then I think it could have been concluded better.
Like I said before, the mid-game is the high point. You'll know what I mean when you get there.
Thank Christ there is no more Competitive trophies. I platinumed R2 but I'll be damned if I was going to do that again in this game given there were similar trophies. I like how most of the are bronze just for trying shit with the weapons.
The particle/weather effects are fuck awesome, like seriously.
Probably a few more things I'm forgetting, will post again later!

Ok, so he destroyed the tower, got back to his family, and the 10% of the worlds population can now live again...annnnd? Ending it right when Joe gets back to his family felt like a cop out. I wanted to know what happened beyond that. An epilogue of sorts. Also, I didn't really like that the final level had the exact same goal as the final levels in the previous games (Destroy the tower). But it was still alright.

Best FPS I have played this year; maybe in a couple of years, and I'm only at Chapter 10. Would love to play some of these setpieces co-op, but none of my friends are playing it currently. And sub HD be damned, I love the look of this game, very gritty and visceral.

I tried playing this game in 3d and while it looked amazing I just couldnt stand it being darker and crappy when moving the camera around too quickly....one day 3d glasses...one day I will actually use you all throughout an entire game...
Holy shit at Chapters 13 and 14.
This game just keeps getting better and better. Absolutely phenomenal. Insomniac really outdid themselves.
Watching the Widowmaker stampede during the storm was one of the most memorable scenes I've ever seen in a game. The gladiator battle was really unexpected and really twisted, in a good way. Fighting the Wardens was not a direction that I expected the game to take but it's definitely been a cool change.

Thoroughly loved this game.
Huge Improvement in terms of design and fluidity. Insomniac did an excellent job in improving the overall gameplay. Have yet to try the multiplayer but I am hoping for a similar experience.

The chimeran death animations are really good too. I remember popping the first few meras and seeing them flail and see hoses flying around. The early voice work is really great as well.

Really digging the multi right now. Has a better feel than the beta did. Though, it does feel kind of laggy at some points. I hope they iron out the issues soon. I'm not that far in the campaign yet, but I'm pretty pleased with my purchase so far.

Install and update while you cook, thats what I did anyways lol. Took almost 20 or so minutes.
I got up to Ch 13 and will probably finish the rest tomorrow. Way way way better than R2 and R1. The only complaints I have are R1 has better weapons [but the Atomizer is fuckin amazing in campaign], Capelli doesn't talk in-game for some reason, and some of the areas tend to drag on. But everything else is such a big leap over the previous games.

I just wanted to confirm whether Superhuman unlocks after 1 playthrough on Normal? I've been playing on Hard, but I have no shame in reducing difficulty temporarily if I get stuck somewhere.
About a week ago I read somebody say that you have to play the campaign twice to unlock it, but I didn't think that made sense, and I haven't heard such a thing since then.
