Resistance 3 (PlayStation 3)

 

Tightly balanced action and a superb array of guns make Resistance 3 a blast.

Four years have past since the events of Resistance 2. Mankind has grown tired and weak as the Chimera continue to ravage Earth. An Earth that, as each day passes, looks and feels more like the frozen Chimera homeworld

At the end of Resistance 2, Joseph Capelli guns down Nathan Hale, the series' protagonist. In one decisive shot, Hale's story is concluded, emphatically, and effectively freeing the franchise of its unnecessary baggage. Three years later, Insomniac...

Call me crazy, but the first two console installments of the Resistance franchise have left me mildly disappointed. Don't get me wrong, Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2 are perfectly good first-person shooters, and I'm genuinely captivated by...

Bigger isn't always better. That's the lesson Insomniac Games appears to have learned following Resistance 2. From the single-player campaign to co-op and competitive multiplayer, Resistance 3 is a considerably more intimate experience. It's arguably...

Resistance 3 - PS3 review at Thunderbolt Games

 

Resistance 3 wants to be a cold and lonely game. A game shrouded by a great veil of sorrow with deeply morose imagery reminiscent of Cormac McCarthy's ‘The Road'. A winding tale of apocalyptical survival by any means possible and by all means...

Resistance 3- PS3

 

Perhaps it's a product of recent economic uncertainty, but the entertainment media seems to be infatuated with the idea of global catastrophe. Whether it's alien invasion (TV's Falling Skies; Hollywood's Skyline or Battle: Los Angeles), viral pandemic...

Resistance 3 is an easy sell for me; apocalyptic stories are right in my wheelhouse. But even if they weren’t, I’d have to give Insomniac full marks for taking the time and creative energy to craft not just a game, but a compelling, human story to go...

Sense of desperation drives story ; Stunning visuals ; Compelling audio design ; Strong pacing

Matchmaking seems broken ; Some aspects of competitive multiplayer unbalanced

We are losing the war. The Chimera virus has infected 90% of humanity and the remaining pockets of civilization huddle underground, scraping a life together among the ruins. The humanity we know has ceased to exist. All that is left is the resistance.

Mildly resistable.

Inventive weapons; polished graphics; decent pacing; provides 2-player campaign co-op

An almost by the numbers design; safe; weak audio effects and cutscenes; multiplayer modes fairly standard and scaled back to 16 players

Resistance 3 Review

 

In a year full of sequels to some of the biggest PS3 franchises, the developers with the most pressure to deliver a worthy product are probably Insomniac. While the Resistance series has certainly found an audience, mainly due to the original being the...

When you first encounter Snipers who jump across the map with ease is both terrifying and exhilarating.
