  • Summary: Set in a brutal, alternate 1950s universe, America has been successfully conquered and destroyed by the deadly Chimeran race, forcing the last remaining human survivors to seek refuge in hiding. Players must take on the role of Joseph Capelli, the last surviving Sentinel from a clandestine military program, as he comes out of hiding to journey across a land of ruin in a heroic fight for survival against the merciless Chimera. In addition to an epic single-player campaign, Resistance 3 will offer two-player online or split-screen co-op through the single-player campaign, and a new, focused progression-based multiplayer experience.

    Resistance 3 should not be overshadowed by any other game this holiday season as it gives a unique and action-packed adventure from beginning to end.

    It is definitely a more personal experience than Killzone 3 or even past Resistance games, with a more focused story and linear mission path featuring higher stakes - fighting for family, friends, and the entire world.

    Overall Resistance 3 is a notable step up in the series and has a lot of offer; it is highly polished and c some enjoyable set-pieces and encounters.

    The best Resistance yet. R2 Campagin was a bit of let down because of the lack of cut scene. But still it was good though. Marcus Smith has given his best for the series! The weapon wheel is brought back, now weapon up grade in very good. I'll buy that! Insomniac Games is best known for its weapons, from like Ratchet And Clank. Alot of fun cool weapons. In Resistance 3 flaming Shotgun! Auger now with cool aiming. Bullseye now has a super cool holographic iron sight. Now from Resistance FOM and R2 I had the Carbine as my rifle but in R3 bullseye is my new rifle. The sound of it just keeps makes me using it again and again! The cut scene in R3 is amazing with the flare lens effect it gives a good feeling of 1950s now games like BF3 also have it. It gives us a feel of the camera. Now its a new game trend I guess. The story progression is great. So far the reviews by other people is just not acceptable. They give it a low score just because of 1 coop mission taken off. Thats insane! Just because of 1 small thing they give it like 3 or 2 out of 10. Hmmm.... Looks like they buy the game just because of Multi player. Resistance 3 is best in Campaign the multiplayer is just an add-on please think of the campagin. Same like BF3 it has a solid multiplayer but bad Campagin. So now go play that game if you want multiplayer do not complain that this does not have a good one and give it score like 3/10 2/10. The new Boss fight is introduced which is very good they have weak points so making it more interesting to play. Final ending of the game is new in all games. With solid gameplay! Guns! Explosions! Chimeras! AND Capelli is a good new hero for Resistance series. Why I said R2 was not that great was cause they finished Hale too early! There should have been 1 more Resistance before he was done! So because of the solid campagin and great story telling! If you like campagin games you should check Resistance 3 out! The best in the series and more Resistance would be nice. Resistance world is a solid platform for games. It could be easily developed! And Insomniac Games is very good in doing it! Hopefully Resistance 4 comes out! Finally! Resistance 3 is a must play game! So I am giving it 10/10 Expand

    Nothing to write home about. The only unique bit from r2 has been removed. Fails to break the mold and doesn't differentiate from anything else in the sci fi fps genre. Expand

  3. The unique multi-player part from R2, has been removed. The PVE part was the greatest thing ever seen, and now they totally destroy it with just an abnormal FPS. Multi-player part: PVP only. This is just a Half-Life, U-Torrent, Quake look a like.... Have never ever been so desapointet, was so looking forward for this game. Dead Island will be my thing instead. Expand
