3 or 4 against GOW is harsh. GOW doesnt do the scale or stuff that Resistance does. GOW however is a 10 in my book. Resistance is more like 6 or 7 overall. But it feels polished techncially possibly due to gameplay etc. There are individual nice touches on Resistance like glass breaking according a physics engine, the snow and growth/stubble on faces but as a whole no game is close to GOW.
thinking of buying RFOM, read on
- Thread starter blueshift
- Start date
The only way the graphics in GoW aren't a 10 is if you're using a sliding scale taking into account that at some point in the future there will be a game with better graphics on either the 360 or PS3.
As for the gameplay in Resistance, from what I've seen so far it's a fairly generic fps, nothing makes it stand out (Nothing in a good way that is).
The AI has been poor so far. On one section where there are a lot of enemies, after dying a few times, I simply ran into the area to trigger them and then ran back where I had come from and hid round the corner. Sure enough they came one by one, and one by one they got blasted with the shot gun.
In the very same section, I also noticed some enemies that were just stood still on the right hand side of the map. I had gone round the left side of the map and taken out those in my way. I had obviously not gone over the trigger point for the enemies to engage, even though I was only yards from them and had just been shooting it out with other aliens.

Rainbow six vegas is the best console FPS out, its my opinion but I'm sure plenty will agree with me as well as reviews. Call of duty 2 is better than Rfom.

I can and I will
By visuals, I mean what I see when I play.
With GOW i see a fantastic linear game, With RFOM I see a lively world.

People keep banging on about how linear GOW is. R:FOM is itself rather linear tbh, and this certainly isn't a point that I'd say gives the latter an advantage over the former.

Atleast GoW allows you to go 1 of 2 ways at times, Resistance is the most linear game I have played in years (seriously!)
Also, noway what you see when you play looks as good, I'm an environmental artist myself and Resistance is poor visually.
Of course it's just your opinion.
I am really liking resistance at the moment.
I am enjoying it more than GoW im afraid.
The later levels are great. The particle effects and all the effects are really amazing! Also the Draw distance is stunning!
Ive just finished a level where i drive a jeep up a hill opening gates as i go and i spent 10 minutes knocking barriers over as the physics were not what i was expecting! They behaved differently, they behaved more lifelike!
All i can say Nokkon is stay with it! It does get very gritty and good!

Indeed, I'll be honest, It took about 2 hours for me to get into the good stuff.
I will complete it, it's not awful to the point where I refuse to.
I am gutted though because I was really really really looking forward to it, but some sections are a lot better than others.
There are just a lot of texturing and modelling errors that bug me personally.

Is this the sort of thing you notice being in (or around) development? I'm under the impression that you're at uni doing design aren't you? I spot things and think 'ooh, that's a bit duff', but it never really bothers me.
(That's not R:FoM, as I only own a Wii btw, just something I was interested about)
Yeah, I am an environmental artist, so anything such as buildings, roads or map assets (bins, lights, fences, gates, signs) or textures, are things that I make.
Seeing errors in the model of these things does annoy me, especially when it's to do with these 'top titles'.

Been playing more of this recently and it just gets better!
The snow effects are insane! best snow effects ive seen in a game, its beaten call of duty 2!
Also i really am liking the graphic style. Its of a more realistic tone, i went and played GoW after and noticed how everything was soooo shiny.
Just beaten loads of stalkers so i guess im close to the end!

Only thing that let down Resistance for me seemed to be the lack of any real story towards the end.
Whereas you found yourself doing something in the early levels it just seemed like you were running from one cutscene to the next.
Good game, severly challenging on superhuman too
