Was Resistance: Fall of Man As Good As I Remember?

The Resistance games have always been a series that I've held a lot of nostalgia for... but the fact Insomniac created this series always blows my mind. When I think of Insomniac, I think Spyro, Ratchet and Clank, Sunset Overdrive and Spider-Man... in comparison Resistance really feels like the black sheep or odd one out. But, black sheep or not I remember loving this series and it's time to put that love and nostalgia to the test! In this retrospective on Resistance: Fall of Man I'll be going over the games development, story and gameplay and seeing if after 15 years... does the game hold up today? Enjoy!

[@giga854]

i was instantly hooked when i first played resistance FOM, the series puts an emphasis on "an unkown enemy" and "inevitable annihilation", really makes you feel like humanity is constantly fighting an uphill battle and this is later proven in sequels when you finally see the devastation the chimera had on the ENTIRE planet.

[@Ultrabozo]

Ah, Resistance: Fall of Man. Even with its many, many, flaws it still remains my favorite game of all time. The concept of aliens invading in the 1950's is simply brilliant.

[@MayorHairBear]

I love this universes setting, makes Resistance one of my favourite series!

[@Ultrabozo]

@@MayorHairBear Same here! :D

[@amuroray9115]

@@Ultrabozo I’d say the flaws aren’t that many and they’re forgivable since this game was developed to be one of the first releases for the PS3. It basically came out on Launch day with the console itself. PS3 games from 2006 were very rough compared to PS3 games from 2011.

[@mitchell7621]

They weren't invading, they were coming homee

Resistance 2 was really my favorite especially being able to do coop campaign! What a story and so much fun!

Man, I love Resistance. So criminally underrated. I want a remaster so bad. Great video, man!

[@MayorHairBear]

Thank mate, glad you enjoyed the video! I would love to see this series get remastered 🙏

[@knight-mares]

86 on metacritic, I’d say that it’s properly rated.

[@jonathanmccleery6892]

I remember playing this game as a kid and being terrified by the chimera, unlike in the halo universe where the covenant look goofy. The variety of chimera species is basically all of earths creatures turned into monsters. The situation you’re placed in is hopeless, all the hybrids you’re killing are basically humans that got captured and turned. We probably never even got the chance to see a pure chimera

[@darklord9581]

The covenant doesn’t look goofy, at least in halo reach they don’t. And hunters were always intimidating.

[@jonny-b4954]

I liked this game personally - good story and guns where the Chimera were pretty fun to fight by my recollection.

[@MayorHairBear]

The game really is a good time, had an absolute blast revisiting it!

[@thomasbirt4725]

One thing that made me appreciate this game a lot more was the eventual realization of just how frequently I was passing over grenade pickups because I was at capacity; the takeaway being that you can use grenades with reckless abandon because the game is unusually generous with them. Most of the game's bullshit enemy spawns can't compete with panic-throwing a few grenades their way.

[@MayorHairBear]

There is an absurd amount of grenades at your disposal, it's incredible! 😂

[@chrisrichfield8906]

They really encourage you to blast groups of enemies with grenades, and its very satisfying.

[@anadamic2860]

I know I'm late, but just last week, I played through all 3 games, and I can easily say this one is my favorite of the three, and one of my favorite games of all time. I grew up with this game, it was my first ever FPS, and god do I look back on it fondly, and honestly, I think it still holds up better than a lot of modern FPS's. It properly tells an interesting twist on the whole "alien invasion" cliche, by having it where, not only were the Chimera on Earth before humans, but all the Chimera you fight in the game, aren't even real Chimera. They're humans, turned into a hybrid of both races. And they genuinely feel like an unstoppable force, that kinda fills you with more and more dread as the game goes on, realizing they can't really be stopped. Not only that, but the missions when you were actually within their bases, or within that cursed subway mission, genuinely felt horrifying, given the Chimera's aesthetic, and the usual lack of music. Just the horrifying roars of the Chimera and the whizzing of Bullseye shots. The worldbuilding is fantastic in this one, and it sincerely makes me want to learn more about the universe and to keep playing after it's over. It's a shame the next two entries were a massive tonal shift from this one, and overall, in my opinion, worse games.

[@scottcovino9415]

Don’t remember this game legitimately being in any GoTY discussions honestly. 2007 was perhaps the best year for game releases of all time. Bioshock, Halo 3, CoD4, Mass Effect, Uncharted and many others dominated that year

[@MayorHairBear]

Personally given I was 10 years old at the time, I also don't remember it being a contender either especially with the banging year that was 2007 but some publications did have it listed. Hard to compete with so many incredible games though!

[@borntosyn.9874]

Ah jeez, I've always believed that 07 was one of the best years ever for releases. Recently started getting back into gaming and it's good to know that it's just me that thinks that

Maybe thats because Resistance came out in 2006, not 2007. Though it had some tough competition in 2007 so it probably still wouldn't win that fight.

[@electricboogaloo8615]

I replayed the whole series recently and I absolutely loved Resistance 1, way more than 2, and 3 is a masterclass. So finding a channel that expresses how I feel about this series is great.

[@NDScalio]

The one thing I'll always praise Resistance: Fall of Man for, is its physics engine. God the ragdolls were great, the number of props you could interact with were numerous, heck, breaking glass was satisfying as hell because it was so well done! Let me know if you felt the same!

[@MayorHairBear]

The physics engine especially for the time is really great you're spot on!

[@speedyreidy575]

The way the glass broke was exceptional, shame the method didn’t follow on to the sequels or for any future insomniac games.

[@chrisrichfield8906]

The first game felt a lot superior to the second game technically. Much better physics, lighting, and shaders. The second game had a cheap feel to it in comparison, but it had fun coop. I didn't play much of the 3rd game but I remember the level design and pacing not as enjoyable as the first game.

[@RedEyedWolfTV]

As i said on the Darksiders video you keep bringing up my childhood memories. I am happy i found your channel. Also we need Resistance 4, Killzone 5, Prototype 3, Darksiders 4, Ryse 2 also another InFamous and Brother in Arms would be nice. Maybe i missed something but these are a few.

This is one of those games that makes me wish I had a Sony brand console. I really liked the idea of an FPS that took place after WW2, but before the times we live in now. Not to mention the alter history with futuristic weaponry and all that. I could maybe emulate these games, but honestly is it even possible these days? Yes, you can find the emulators themselves, but finding the games now is close to impossible.

[@MayorHairBear]

I 100% understand where you're coming from but if you have a solid PC I've heard the PS3 emulator is super solid and the Resistance series is one of the few PS3 exclusives that has not seen a price skyrocket. You can still find them online for around $10 each. I love the setting for this series and I hope Insomniac shows the series some more love soon!

4:50 I want a game like that. Just a large world that you progressively move through linearly. Make it not that wide or something, so you're always moving forward. Or maybe you're trying to stay ahead of something behind you. And you're just fighting one man in a HUGE war that you just keep running into. Break into no mans land midway through, etc. End with giant attack on the enemys line. You're just a cog. Maybe gain a squad to command, then a platoon, etc.

[@kaison12205]

I will say the bullet sponginess and difficulty of the enemies to me feels like thematic story telling insomniac is basically showing us an enemy that could conquer and wipe all the worlds armies. It also adds to the oppressive atmosphere which really makes the game feel tense. The tankiness seems to really be intentional especially when you read the reports which explain the chimeras powers as being caused by a rapidly fast metabolism which accelerates their healing and strength. I will agree they went a tad overboard but I feel like it was cooler to get nearly overpowered enemies as opposed to enemies made of tissue paper

I honestly love this game because it was a game where your health doesn't full regen all your life, cute weapons, enemies in top difficult can ONE-SHOT you with a single melee hit because their biology it's like that, also because most of the Chimera were "Bullet Sponges" and you needed to be good in order to not die in some levels, but i still hate the poor IA, I mean i really expected at the max difficulty the enemies use the secondary fire of their weapons. I hate that most games of these days use the regen hp factor.

[@kaison12205]

I remember how bad it I wanted resistance when I first got a ps3 in 2011 See in middle school I did a history report on Nathan hale’s namesake and alternate history is just so cool to me Despite the game already being old when I got it in 2012/13 I remember loving it to death the campaign was so fun and the guns characters world and reports were so enthralling and really made me love the world. The first game will always be my favorite just because it feels the most fully realized. I like the setting the characters and narration feel great. While Hale is stoic and silent it works because the other characters are engaging and at least for me created tension in the game cause while I knew hale would be fine the other characters weren’t super soldiers and I was always worried that the chimera might wipe them out. In conclusion I love resistance fall of man so much

Sony has some great IP's... just need to bring some of them back!

Ive paid an ungodly amount of money to keep myself in a PS 3 to this day, so I can keep playing 9 games: the Resistance, Killzone, and Infamous series. I just play them in a line over and over, though its getting hard to find good controllers. Lol

I remember people like the hip hop gamer who were big at the time of early KZbin, would show this game when telling you what 360 couldn't do graphically. Along with the show, and God of war 3, I was convinced that Sony was just superior hardware. I really enjoyed this game, my halo friends said they hated it but I just think they were haters lol.

Play this on the Vita so you have dual stick controls. Turn off the big auto aim square so that it plays like any other tps. It's still more difficult to aim under pressure than regular console games but the developers gave you a genius tool. And that tool is your main weapon which has ricochet homing rounds which evens up the odds so you end up saving your other weapons for the slower more powerful enemies, while you use your main weapon for the majority of the faster more plentiful enemies. Even if you only played it on the PSP, you should still give it a shot on PC or Vita so you get a completely different game.

@steelbear2063 Shit, my bad. I thought this was the psp game Resistance: Retribution. If anyone gets a chance you should try it on Vita or ppsspp on pc. It's one of the best Resistance games.

Resistance the fall of man must be one of my most played game on ps3. I remember playing it tons of times, one of the games that i replayed the most back in the dayfor sure. For sure one of my favourite single player shooters. My main vilain now that stops me from going there is the ps3 controller and the frame rate. Playstation controllers evolved so much since than its hard to get used to the tiny dualshock controller from the ps3 when you used for so long the ps4 controller and now the dual sense. tried to play the resistance 3 in the ps5 on streaming mode but the quality is soo poor that it hurst my eyes.

You Know I would have loved to see what Resistance could have been if they stuck with their Starship Troopers inspired Premise fantastical doesn't mean bad or you can't connect with it Many people connect with Characters in fantasy stories inspite of the fantastical worlds they live.

Its weird that insomniac basically killed the series themselves with 3, they set up all this potential and mystique in resistance 2 and then do a game thats tiny in scope with 3
