Resistance: Fall of Man

Release Date: November 2006
ESRB: Mature
Manufacturer: Insomniac
GCRating: 6

Stats: 1 - 4 players - but it's best in Coop Mode!, FPS
Story: The game is set in an alternate history 1951, and puts the player in the shoes of Sgt. Nathan Hale as he and the human resistance forces attempt to drive a mysterious alien-like invasion out of Britain.

Review:  This is one of the best scifi games I've ever played.  The story line is extremely rich and intreuging, its history is flawless and plain and simple makes you want to know what happens next.  You care about your character, Nathan Hale, there is mystery surrounding him and you play just to see what happens next!  The creatures are extremely imaginative, bravo insomniac, bravo! They are down right spooky!  There are several different types of baddies, and playing the game you find out how they are 'made' which in itself is damn kreepy man!  There is no leveling up, and the HUD is clean, there is plenty of ammo and enuff health if you are careful, but its a very lean game, no futzing around with menus, and upgrades, when you are out of bullets, walk over the nearest dead dude and boom goes the dynomite!  Changing out guns is easy on the fly capable, and the types of guns you get are smart and imaginative.
Likes: The "Auger", the story, the graphics, the lean pick up and go keep you in the fighting style shooter - brilliantly done Insomniac!
Dislikes: Nothing.  I loved this game.
