So I gave Resistance another run, it's just kinda bland more than anything else. The first level really is horrible, but at least later levels give you shit loads of health and ammo so you aren't getting constantly stuck, cause seriously, this game is deceptively hard.

With no proper cover systems, huge blocks of enemies and barely any health it's pretty fucking painful to get past each checkpoint. You're being smashed at all angles by enemies who seemingly never seem to reload or need to, and it's usually just a test of endurance as to who can hold out longer. I dread to think how bad this'll get when the inevitable bullet sponge bosses come along.

I get that not everyone was fond of the cover FPS revolution - myself included - but this game lacks the precision of a cover based FPS while also lacking pretty much all of the fun of something more classic like the Painkiller franchise.

The level design, and monster design is awesome and I don't wanna come across overly negative on a game that isn't really worth being overly negative about but just eh.

Definitely the highlight so far was riding the tank, it controlled like total ass but after spending so long dying and sneaking around it was really nice to get a sense of power given back to me.
