Resistance 2 is about to hit the store shelves tomorrow and it looks like PS3 owners are in for a rare treat. Considering the complexity and scope of Resistance 2, this is one title that is a bit tricky to review.
Let no "respected" (in reality extremely biased) journalist tell you otherwise.
Resistance 2 is absolutely SICK. Its packed to the brim with content and will satisfy people for months, unlike its competitor which is the same as its predecessor (killing locusts only is not boring for so long).
Sure, you can say that, when Gears of War 2 is technically, a Third Person Shooter, conveniently sweeping away the best shooter of the year Gears of War 2. Even so, I expect COD5 to get similar, if not better reviews than Resistance 2.
Anyways, take away that "F" off the title, and it will sound ridiculous. Very clever.
I agree with you, Gears of War 2 shouldn't be compared to RFOM2 because one is a first person shooter, and the other 3rd person, but people are going to do it. Even the title doesn't compare it to Gears "Resistance 2 potentially best FPS of 2008". So, compare it to Halo 4, Haze, Far Cry 2, etc. Gears when it comes out should be compared to Dead space. However, you guys will disagree with me.
they should have taken out potential on the title of this article because resistance 2 is the best FPS this year and a Game of the year contender. i don't care what critics say because it can be rigged easily with money, persuasion, loyalty and fanboyism.....
i'll be playing 2 hours from now and ill be my own judge... wait for my review...lol.
R2 best fps of the year, cool. MGS4 is the best 3rd person shooter of the year. LBP is the best platformer of the year. and Fallout3 is the best rpg of the year.. boy am i happy i have them all..
disclaimer: all this is the opinion of one person. although others may share the opinion of this person. that in no way makes it fact.. LBP, Fallout3, and MGS4 may fall into different sub genres.
People, who cares about Gears 2 when you're talking about Resistance 2? Don't you people realize that the two games are distinctly different? Not only is one first person and one third person, but they're not even the same genre of shooter. Gears of War is closer is a cover-based, small-squad based tactical game. Resistance is a run-and-gun, Team-Fortress/Halo hybrid shooter.
I'm getting both to satisfy two distinct needs for my gaming addiction.
Compare Resistance 2 to Halo 3 all you want, it makes sense (even though one of those games is new and one is a year old, they're in appropriate classes to be compared to one another). But Gears is NOT a substitute for Halo or Resistance. Totally different. I have tons of friends that love Halo 3 and they hated Gears. Resistance 2 could be very much up their alley, and Gears 2 likely will not be. I'm sick of people trying to determine whether Resistance 2 or Gears 2 will be better. They're both fine games for satisfying distinct gaming pleasures, and if you've got both systems and like both genres, then dammit play both games.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA WAIT WAIT I think the sonyfanboys are comforting them selves by posting blogs that any 1 can set up and submit it as a review hahahahaha resisitance 2 is 89% on meta critic and it wont be changing the gqame is averagwe did i mention gears of war 2 is at 95% .
HAHHAHA... it's awesome... I've only played the single player mode. You're gonna have several instances of "Oh shiet, how am i going to kill that thing!"
I'll finish the single player first before i jump in to play co-op.
Gamer.Blorge isn't a personal kiddie site, its a commercial news publisher owned by Cogent Insights Pty Ltd, says so right on the site: http://blorge.com/about-blo...
They own several news sites: TECH, iPHONE, BUY, VISTA, PHOTO and GAMER.
Supposedly they are one of the largest news publisher in that area.
I am sitting here at work right now staring at my copy of R2 sitting next to me on my desk. 4 hours until I can go home and play... the wait is killing me.
LOL. There is no FOM2, the first one was called FoM (Fall of Men), the second is just Resistance 2. Well, mine has "Collectors Edition" in its subtitle (har har :), and this little Chimera is threaten me on my desk. ... Gotta get home soon, I think.
Why? they somehow less professional because the format of their web page differs from almighty IGN or maybe Eurogamer? Judge the content not the site.
however I do agree for some part that if all small blogs get posted here this site will start to resemble Digg more and more, and thats not a good thing.
Excuse me but...why would this be reported when we've been getting news from this site for a while?
.
I thought blogs wasn't allowed? O.k now I see, its only allowed when it favors the PS3 and belittled the 360.
an excellent score.
I cant wait to play it tonight
