Resistance is Futile
Ok...... I'll be honest. I am NOT an FPS fan. In fact to be honest, I have played only a handful of FPS games (Bioshock, Doom 3, Bad Company,) and several demos for other FPS games.

That being said........BUY THIS GAME!

I will spare you a huge description of plot, Lord knows there are plenty other reviews out there which go in to it. But I will say it is the plot that truly draws you in and goes for the jugular at first with a bit of mystery then erupts in to a full-out action story. With casual gaming I beat this game about 4 days. Not to say the game is small, but when I did sit down I was going through two or three or more missions at a sitting. And now I have upped the difficulty and going at it again.

The weapons are mostly typical from many FPS games out there with one or two really fun weapons to use......the Auger comes to mind. There are also additional weapons for you to use once you beat the game for your other run throughs.

THe multiplay, at least offline, seems rather cookie cutter of other offline multiplays with other FPS games. This is not to say it's not fun. It is, and a nice touch is the customizable map size. Although for me, I like the large maps to make it less a brawl and more a game of cat and mouse.

In short, if you like FPS games, I have a feeling this game is for you. If you don't like FPS games, at least rent it. But at this price.........buy it. I have gotten a lot less out of 20 bucks........a lot less out of 50 now that I think of it. This game has redefined what I have come to expect from FPS games and may very well open the door to me buying others.......specifically Resistance 2.

I am sure great for its time
I bought this game for two reasons: to understand RFOM 2, and it was on sale for $20. The game has been out for a while, sure, but I was a little disappointed. Let us do a quick comparison. Gears of War came out a week before FOM, but is a far superior game. I won't go into it much but just play the two. The graphics for FOM just feel like an original Xbox or PS2 title. There is hardly a physics engine, no world damage. Try throwing a grenade or shoot a rocket accurately. Usually way to far then one would think. Enemies are quite boring, they hide, pop out, hide; very predictable. Weapons are decent, i like secondary fire and new concepts (time shifting sniper rifle), though ammo is everywhere, as well as health. I rarely ran out of ammo, not a good thing. Think, Bioshock; ammo is rare, and you usually need a lot of it. FOM 2 should be a huge improvement over the first title, something I am really looking forward to.

Awesome! ! !
I bought this game recently, and even if it is one of the first games to hit the PS3, it's one of the better looking, most entertaining games on the I own right now. I got so hooked up on it I had to pre-order Resistance 2. A must buy! ! !

Old School FPS with a great storyline

This is an Old school style FPS with obvious upgrades thanx to the technology behind the PS3. Commands and movements would feel really familiar to experienced gamers. I believe they should make some upgrades to the motor that controls the character movements and work some more in the AI for enemies. I hope Resistance 2 to be a little more solid on this aspects.

Anyway the game is really good, loads of fun and have a great story line.
Scenarios could be tad boring cause they are all very similar I can`t see the difference between London and Oxford other than the snow LOL.

The game pays itself for the multiplayer option so go for it you wont regret it, its already a PS3 classic and goes for a decent price!

Good game. Fun. Typical FPS.
Resistance seemed like a remake of Killzone with different enemies. Combat gets a bit repetitive as in most FPS. I waited til the price dropped because the game is not worth $60. I'll probably do the same with Resistance 2. It's a good game, great graphics, very simple gameplay, shoot 'em up, blow 'em up, don't die, and save the world. Storyline is worth getting into. Replayability is nonexistant and multiplayer is completely terrible compared to games like Call of Duty 4 and Battlefield.
