I think one of the main reasons I liked this game so much is because I wasn’t sure what to expect since it was developed by Insomniac Games who of course are responsible for the whole ‘Ratchet & Clank’ universe which is very dear to my heart. It’s just that R&C is a platformer as well as cartoony and very stylized, where Resistance is a FPS and has an extremely darker tone. Overall I was very satisfied with the whole package. AI was decent, the enemies were fierce and unique and the weapons were very cool with that futuristic twist on a WWII setting.
My only beef was the plot. Basically I don’t know who I am, and why I’m doing what I’m doing. During the cut-scenes all I got was a monologue of some creepy British chick giving splotchy plot points at best. It was kind of like watching a movie with a weird and/or confusing plot, but you don’t care because the action and the visuals are so freakin’ cool.
pros: Great creature design. Nice dark tone for Insomniac. Decent sound and relatively unique levels.
cons: Confusing plot.
replay value: Medium
