Ooooh shit, did you just drop the gauntlet? Oh man, I better get my boys at the GAF Japan clan in on this shit. You best be ready.

I slipped one in there. :lol
I'm up for some east vs. west style in-fighting, but I'm more looking forward to a 20-person GAF team taking on all challengers in Breach. Also, I'll warn you now, I've got this strange fascination with Conversion, likely because I dig the idea of limited lives and quick games, so expect to see me playing that a lot as well.TheTrin said:

I would totally be down for making a big GAF Clan. It would be doubly cool if we could make an umbrella clan, and break up based on region (US West, US East, Japan, etc).
We`ll wait until March to make the EU clan. Lolz.
So, no blood in the japanese version or am I missing something in the option?
Game is really awesome. Just got to Thames. You can feel the Insomniac touch by just looking at how ammo and energy cells are scattered (and used) through the levels. I love the jump/crounch mines sections. Ahaha, very funny. Some sections are scary as hell. You Insomniac guys sure know where to place enemies and how to mix different races to pump the challenge. Awesome. It's really like playing a more serious Ratchet and Clank.
I'm definitely enjoying this offline game more than GOW. Yeah, different games, but this one is definetly better anyway. And longer. Geez I could have completed GOW 3 times by the time I got to London in Resistance. And it's fairly hard (died lot of times, my fault) on Normal.

Also known as the best ****ing part of the game.
Bad_Boy said:nice impressions trin, can't wait to get down on it!
and I'm definately with the regional east vs west gaf clan.
We really should make a clan just for team matches with random people. That would be AWESOME.

After all the arguments, who knew the answer could be so simple.

I'm assuming you think Resistance is not the system seller, and even though I'm not feeling that game 100% myself yet, I see a lot of people here who seem to be buying PS3 primarily so that they can play it. It looks to be the best game on the launch, and it looks to be a system seller.GuessWho said:

I think most people are buying a PS3 to sell it for more money on EBAY, and the ones who buy a PS3 to play games are getting Resistance only because its the only real good game out of the bunch.
From what I've read its nothing spectacular, just an above average game released at launch along side other games that aren't above average.

God I wish I could get in on this but it seems hopeless at this point.Wollan said:
I'm writing up a list for NA NeoGAF'ers who want to be a part of a NeoGAF clan, just say so and I will add interested to the list in the first post. Volunteers for managing the clan should raise their voice and launch buyers should then vote on who they want (to manage).
DCharlie is running the Japanese NeoGAF clan so if you're playing from there and want to join, pm him.

If you read my whole post (which you obviously didn't) you would see that I said "ABOVE AVERAGE".
You can say the same thing for Call of Duty 2 for the 360 last year, out of the 360's lineup it was the highest reviewed game, and the best selling game.
I didn't buy my 360 because of Call of Duty 2, but I bought Call of Duty 2 cause it was the best game the system had to offer at that time. Which is the most likely reason people are gonna buy Resistance.

well gears is above average to right...hell so is mgs as well....great praise indeed!
anyway, I think the game looks pretty fun...of course it isnt the reason I wont a ps3...but then gow wouldn't be a system seller for me...mass effect on the otherhand, I know I will only get one console like usual, but a hell of a way to test resolve
peace
DCharlie is now the official manager of the NeoGAF Resistance clan. Since reports so far has suggested that cross pacific play is not an issue regarding lag, this clan is worldwide for now. After you have successfully created your PS3 Network account and got your PS3 and Resistance copy in hand, pm him with your account name for him to add.

Let me revise what I said without using words that people can use to twist what I've said before.
I doubt that the majority of people buying a PS3 are buying it because of Resistance. However I believe a majority of the people buying a PS3 will buy Resistance because it is the best game out of the launch lineup.

Which means there will be people willing to pay even *more* to get it, and those 'end buyers' are probably buying it because they really want to play something on it (Resistance?). Unless they too think they could re-sell it for even more money :lolmysticstylez said:
Why would the majority of PS3 owners not buy resistance at this point? It is the best game obviously; you're saying the majority wont get other games or they will?mysticstylez said:
If they get no other games then they are indeed basically buying it for resistance (at the time, and maybe getting other games that may come down the line). I'm tired so maybe I'm just not hearing what you are trying to say correctly.

What I'm trying to say is that I believe people are buying a PS3 for 1 of 3 reasons.
1. to sell on ebay
2. its a new system and they gotta have it
3. its the predecessor to PS2 so you know its gonna be a quality system.
I don't think people are like "OMG I gotta get a PS3 cause of Resistance", but more like " I gotta get a PS3, and I'll pick up Resistance cause its got the best reviews.

Have bluetooth headsets been confirmed to work in this game, yes or no?
so umm... you just described like every other console launch if you take out resistance and swap it with another game and switch a couple other words. I'm really not sure what point you are trying to make.mysticstylez said:
People not buying the ps3 JUST for resistance? is that even a surprise? sure there will be some who do, but for the majority, people dont buy consoles for one game, they buy it for what the console can do and what games will come in the future. Atleast I hope so.
Maybe besides the Wii, but even then theres probably not a majority of people buying the wii JUST for zelda. People are not just going to sell their Wii's after they finish zelda.

Finally, that's great news. I hope the applies to all headset enabled PS3 games.

Is there a PS3 bluetooth headset compatibility list somewhere? I'm almost 100% sure I've read somewhere that someone tried to pair some headset with PS3, and it didn't work.Wollan said:

I was referring to a quote from someone else saying Resistance is a system seller. I think it will probably be a great game, but not a system seller. Thats the point I was trying to get across
Marconelly said:
I heard someone say Sony was supposed to release one but I don't think it has arrived yet. Most headsets, USB or Bluetooth, should work though. I'm not sure if I would go out and buy the most expensive Bluetooth one just now but the console should support the majority.
Fair enough. I personally wouldnt consider resistance a system seller. The PS3 was going to sell way before resistance. The system kinda sells itself. That said, Resistance seems more than just an above average game. The point I was orginally trying to make.mysticstylez said:
mysticstylez said:
4. It's a the new Playstation and they know prices won't be going down for at least another 12-18 months, so they want to pick it up ASAP to get the most out of it, before the price drops?
Yeah, it's true... People aren't going to buy a PS3 just to get resistance. Instead they're looking at overall collection of games headed to the PS3 and seeing a collection of games they'd like to play on it (which would differ from person to person).
I know this is true for me for the X360 too (the Wii... not so much. I just gotta have Zelda).
