GOW2, R2, Awesome.

Oh what a wonderful time to be a gamer, the PS3 has Resistance 2, and XBOX360 has Gears of War 2, two fucking great games, albeit some of us are acting like jackasses cause apparently you helped create these consoles and are willing to die for them, if not act like a bitch on some website, nonetheless both of these games are fucking brilliant, I acquired Gears legally, Target doesn’t really give a shit about release dates, that’s not important though.

Resistance 2:
Awesome and Epic as hell. The second you come out of the facility you start in and stare out into the San Francisco bridge and the nearby destruction, you wont even want to move, its just so fucking stunning, similar to leaving vault 101 from Fallout3 (but you know, with aliens and shit) love the fact that some creatures kill you with one hit, in a time were games seem to get easier and easier, Insomniac totally dicks you around by having invisible creatures walk up to you and laugh at you to death. Nice.


Gears of War 2:
Pure fucking badass-ity, I guess if you were to compare these games to movies, Gears2 would be Rambo 2 and Resistance 2 would be Universal Soldier (SHUT UP, those movies were awesome) *spoiler warning: midway through Gears 2 you fight this leviathan, that looks eerily like a creature you fight near the beginning of Resistance 2, called the kraken, they look a lot alike, however before cried WTF is this shit, I couldn’t cause’ you fight both of these bosses completely different, you have to enter one’s mouth and kill it from the inside, while the other you have to dodge its sonic screams. Both similar bosses, approached completely different, completely awesome*

I couldn’t help but to just smile, somewhat similar concepts, “unknown monster army trying to take over the world” released at the same time, now this is real fucking competition, either game could have easily been pushed back, or even bought out *coughEAcough* but no, they decided to just deal their cards and let them fight it out. The ONLY way games are should, try to make the better game.

Fucking Awesome.


What about Wii gamers?????

…..Wii Music…*golf clap*


Also, this is the first thing I have written, been lurking on the site for almost 2 years now, just grown sick of kotaku, instead of looking for one more site to visit, I thought I would just start participating here.

I hated how they made Hale such a pansy and I beat Resistance 2 last night and didn't feel it was that epic. It felt a bit disjointed between the levels. Love the ending and what exactly happens with Hale. But Co-op is where it is at with that game.

Perhaps you should BOLD the spoiler warning... use [ b ] [/ b ] (minus the spaces)



PS: Lack of mentioned L4D = fail.
Ossisk's Destructoid Blog
Actually, it is epic....for a ps3 game, nothing really as big as Resistance2 on the console, with the exception of fallout 3.

If i even have to mention L4D, then you fail as a person.

also yea, sorry about the spoiler, silly me for thinking the words spoiler warning wouldn't be enough of a spoiler warning.
BlindsideDork's Destructoid Blog
Uncharted was pretty epic...doesn't have multiplayer but still. And some of the bigger battles of Warhawk are amazing...flying, shooting.

Just wait for Killzone 2, the multiplayer is INSANE!
Ossisk's Destructoid Blog
Oh, I am waiting for killzone 2, however you have to give resistance 2 some love, what else do we have? at least they are trying, it is still a fantastic game, yea graphically not as pretty as uncharted i will give you that.

multiplayer is really fun on Resistance 2.
BlindsideDork's Destructoid Blog
Killzone 2 is REALLY something to own. It has become day one purchase...looks amazing, plays amazing, just amazing. But I have been playing a lot PS3 recently...but if you are talking exclusivesly, they only have a few less than 360 at this point.
BravoNavo's Destructoid Blog
The co-op is definitely the highlight of Resistance 2. I called in sick to play more of it.

Not saying the rest of the game isn't great, but the co-op is just so unique and addicting.

Epic multiplayer is epic
lv99ron's Destructoid Blog
What about Gears of War 2 Co-op. That is epic as hell, and horde mode is fucking sweet. Play a lot of horde mode to get use to playing the easier section of Left 4 Dead, because when that drops so do your balls.
Dan CiTi's Destructoid Blog
Gears 2 Horde is only fun when you're with multiple people. Alone it's worthless. You might as well play training grounds/sinlgleplayer/L4D.
xXTUBBYXx's Destructoid Blog
Your blog posts is pretty cool, I just wish you were a little more coherent. It definitely reads like a 12 year old kid wrote it, with all the f-bombs and constant use of the word "Epic".
BlindsideDork's Destructoid Blog
yea another attention whore blog, its really sad, you need to get off your knees and clean yourself up this is disgusting
