Product Description
-------------------
In the end it will probably be to the benefit of European gamers
that the PS3 was delayed, since it will give Sony the chance to
put together a much more impressive line-up of launch games than
greeted the console in America and Japan. Resistance was easily
the best of the U.S. launch games - a first person shoot 'em-up
from the creators of Ratchet & Clank. The game's story is based
around an alternate version of World War II where instead of
Nazis you're facing off against the insect-like Chimera in a war
torn Britain (naturally you're playing an American though). It's
basically Call Of Duty meets Doom.

The game doesnt use the tilt sensors of the Sixaxis controller
for movement but it does demonstrate the improved build quality
of the analogue sticks, which previously made first person
shooters difficult on the PS2. The tilt sensors are used in a
variety of secondary roles though, such as when you have to shake
off a monster or if you get set on fire. Despite the faux WWII
setting, most of the games weapons are fantastical and, as with
Ratchet & Clank, are probably the highlight of the whole game.
All have secondary fire modes, from grenade launchers to homing
bullets. The armour piercing Auger for example, also doubles as a
shield. There are also vehicle based sections, including a
particularly fun ride in an almost indestructible tank.
Although the single player game is well above average, the
criticism about the sometimes generic art and design are not
entirely without foundation. Thankfully this is compensated by an
excellent forty person online mode a huge achievement for a
launch game and a very good sign for future online PS3 games.
