Stolen for GAF

60 players online  :o
8 player co-op :o
Fall 2008 release (2008 is looking to be banner year for PS3)

Sorry, this thread sucks.  It's a rainy day here in NYC and I'm feeling very lazy.

8 Coop mode sounds like GRAW (which had 16), in other words, extra coop missions.

I hope the graphic engine is significantly improved.  It was kinda overshadowed by Gears.

Megaton my ass.  Resistance 1 was nothing more than a 2nd tier FPS.  Unless the sequel is much better, who gives a fuck about the features?  Features can't turn a mediocre game into a great one.  The enemies do look much better though.  Hopefully, this time Insomniac will do more than emulate other more successful games.

Knowing Insomniac, Resistance 2 will play almost exactly like the first one.  Insomniac doesn't seem to be able to do much more than pretty up their sequels.  Insomniac should just stick to the platforming genre where the weaker competition won't expose them as easily.

It's just very average compared to all the shooters I've played on PC and consoles.  I don't see how Resistance can do much for anyone other than FPS noobs.

I don't really get the hate for COD4's SP.  It's not amazing but it's at least a 7 to 8.   I'm playing on Veteran and so far I haven't had much trouble with spawning enemies, etc.  The TV station only took me 2-3 reloads to beat it.  Maybe it's because I'm playing with KB/M instead of a gamepad.  I'm about halfway through and so far the only mission that really sucks is the one where you control the satellite weapon.

It's the checkpoints that cut off the spawning enemies that killed the single player campaign for me.  After playing The Bog I shut if off.  I was trying to play tactical and flank, but it doesn't work.  What works is running to the invisible checkpoint, and that isn't fun.  I would rather clear out a given set piece and move on, but that's my take on it.

It's bad. Period. The game has that spawning shit that encourages you to rush forward into combat to trigger arbitrary checkpoints, AI that doesn't do anything, grenade spamming, useless friendly AI, shit level design, weapons that you can't really tell apart, repetitive campaign structure (night -> day level transitions are lazy)...it's just garbage. It's unfair.

The difficulty doesn't scale fairly. Halo's Legendary is easier than COD4 on normal, imo.

Multi removes all these problems and leaves you with satisfying gunplay and the interesting perks system. The single player is an abortion that looks especially bad after Half Life 2: Episode 2 and Halo 3.

Also, COD4 is bare minimum an 8.  It is an intense fucking game.  Anyone that tries to float anything resembling "it's bad" is full of some sort of bullshit or jadedness or whatever; at least enough that I'd question the validity of their opinions in the future.

I'm not sure what difficulty I am on.  Whatever the middle is.

Games that don't use EASY NORMAL AND HARD and try to use LEGENDARY AND HERO AND VETERAN are faggy.  You're a fuckin' videogame, a technical device; the name of difficulty levels does not affect immersion, so stop trying to make yourself look "different."

I'd agree on the names; the trend is stupid. I generally think that a lot of games get better as you ramp up the difficulty-- COD4 is the opposite. Just curious where you were.

b. they're perfectly right

the seemingly-infinite respawns pretty much ruin the campaign. it's peerless in its portrayal of battlefield chaos, but 'sprint to the next checkpoint to stop fuckers spawning' is not a great fps mechanic. i played on 'hardened,' and didn't find it unduly hard...but didn't find it unduly fun either

what does gi do get all these exclusives? it seems like whenever a new (big) game is unveiled, gi gets the exclusive.

GI is associated with gamestop, is it not?  i'm sure it involves a lot of cocksucking if so.

Hush up, COD4 weaksauce noobs! If you are too puny and feeble and generally sub-human to play it on Veteran, bleating about it on here isn't gonna help!

Instead, tell me more about how awesome Resistance 2 is going to be and why i need a Blu-RayStation. I'm pretty sure that the '2' on the end and them doubling all the numbers for co-op, online and SP mean that it's going to be twice as good but I may have the integer wrong; hype is an area of modern mathematics that often confuses me.

I might actually buy this just to own Kittonwy online.  Who's with me

I don't really get the hate for COD4's SP.  It's not amazing but it's at least a 7 to 8.   I'm playing on Veteran and so far I haven't had much trouble with spawning enemies, etc.  The TV station only took me 2-3 reloads to beat it.  Maybe it's because I'm playing with KB/M instead of a gamepad.  I'm about halfway through and so far the only mission that really sucks is the one where you control the satellite weapon.   

Yea, that would definitely help. COD4 :bow

I finished CoD2 on Veteran, it wasn't that hard.  I'm not complaining about the difficulty, it's about the single player campaign being pretty weak, especially when you have the awesome multiplayer at your disposal.  Why bother with single?  Multi is where it's at.  I'll try and finish single over the weekend just to see if it picks up after the first hour and a half.

Juice, did you change your tag to MoJuice (something like that)?  Why?

Because Microsoft is fucking distinguished mentally-challenged.

And it's JOjuice

I want to see how long it takes for that to be labeled offensive, since "CajoleJuice" apparently is.

Just wait 'til you get to All Ghillied Up/One Shot One Kill. Re-doing that on Vet right now. Infinity Ward = Infinity Win :bow :bow :bow

Frankly, once I'm done with the SP, I'll never play it again. I don't know why Kev is. OMG I HATE THIS GAME BUT I KEEP PLAYING SP WHEN THERE'S MP

Scans look great and 8 player co-op sounds freakin' awesome.....unfortunately it's Resistance.  I just don't like the game.  Period.  I don't think there was one moment in Resistance: FOM that I actually enjoyed.

Hopefully they'll make some dramatic improvements.

That's the way I am with most games.  Even my favorites.  Gaming is a very ephemeral experience.  ENjoy shit while you can and move on.  If you obsess over shit you end up like the fools at GAF.

I thought it was kind of generic and safe, but I gave it solid marks because it was a launch game that really didn't have any glaring flaws, and it looked pretty good, and it had pretty smooth multiplayer.  A launch title with no major cut corners?  That's some points.  Hopefully it's shaped up a bit, too, though.

I really want to like it.  It has a cool premise and junk.  The play in the first one was just kinda really standard.

Yea, I barely ever replay games. I think the last few I did to any extent were Mario 64, OOT (and that was due to the Master Quest disc), and Mario Sunshine. This is not including something like F-Zero GX or Ikaruga, which are pretty much infinitely replayable.

My big complaint with Resistance is that the game feels kind of sterile.  Whereas the world of CoD4 feels really alive, and able to be blown apart and manipulated, Resistance has that perfectly still museum feel, for the most part.  The glass in the game is fuck awesome, though.

I enjoyed Resistance.  It accomplished its task, providing a good launch title, but I've always kind of felt that it would be the sequel that proved whether the game was a viable series, or just a good launch title.

The multiplayer impressed me.  They really got that working well, at launch, even.

Because I am looking to prove myself right? Which always happens, mind you.

And if I don't see you or someone playing online, I won't play online. I'm not one of those "PLAYS WITH STRANGERS" types of people.

I don't like being called gay jew darkie.

Resistance's biggest graphical issue was the sterile lighting. It really did everything to reveal the game's kind of middling texture work. Resistance was a geometry beast though, and Resistance 2 looks like it amps it up to 11.

I guess that's fair enough.

Halo 3 is not a FABULOUS game, though.  :P
