That's more videos than you have fingers in one hand! Okay, so three of the videos walk you though menu, which isn't really action-packed, but every multifragger match begins with players streaming through the menus, right? So they're pretty useful, too.

Insomniac Game's Ted Price, kind soul that he is, and Game Informer walk us through Resistance: Fall of Man's multiplayer match setup and gameplay. You may want to take notes from here on as he talks about navigating the menus (3 videos) and the battlefield of a Breach Match (3 videos).

Ready? All the YouTube-uploaded vids here are sequenced, first to last, as they were on the Game Informer download site. Just scroll down each vid in sequence, click play on each, sit back, relax, and enjoy. (Thanks to =Metallic Force= for the tip!)

well first off, i own a 360 and was considering getting a ps3 down the road but this game is looking really good. Smooth ass framerate and 40 people online. I dont really care if its not innovative or whatever, it still looks pretty badass.

I'm quite glad that this is a launch title for the PlayStation 3 (And that I got my PS3 and this game pre-ordered at EBGames =P). It's very rare that we get to see such a nice looking game at the launch of any console. So far it's shaping up to be one of the best recent FPS I've seen. And with Insomniac's history of amazing weaponry in their games, I do not feel like I will be shafted when this launches on November 17th.

Thats all that has to be said.



Xbox Live hasn't created a 40 player FPS game yet.

# if you like FPS....resistance is a must! :)Guest 2006-10-14 19:18
again i'm not a FPS and Fighting game can of guy. i like RPG and Action Adventure game...that's my preference. But seeing this video clip its well worth it. I just hope that they categories those players using 56k, DSL, and CABLE so it there would be minimal lag in gameplay. And they mentioned that when got hit, it doesn't take a lot of clips to kill you....it's more like the SOCOM game were 1 or few shots you can get killed instantly. more realistic just like Battlefield. so if you FPS this is the best game available on launch day. How about CALL DUTY 3?

Aren't you capable of commenting about a PS3 game without making a reference to the 360?

This is still going to be a title I am going to buy. It makes me want to play PLAYSTATION 3 more, i am glad there is smooth framerate with online play.

around 75 percent have to be ready until the game starts, its like that in most games. So around 30/40 people have to be ready, then the gae will start.

So it's the PS3 answer to Halo. Cool.

The multiplayer looks tight :)

# Thank you Mitt!Guest 2006-10-15 05:52
You're right, Blackhawk Down for the XBox did support up to 50 players online. So much for all your bragging Vietone, since the number of players supported online is not just about technology, but about what the developers feel will work best for the game.

# The load time isn't badKris_09 2006-10-15 06:11
The load time for the game (online part anyways) isn't very long. The game looks like a HUGE hit for this system and will be one of the greatest online games for it, socom has a real competition

You have accidentally hyperlinked "Menu and Settings Part Two" twice and not hyperlinked "Stat Tracking"

Wow. This game looks kick ass, I hope there are plenty of people online so that you dont have to wait as long in matchmaking as you do in Halo.

# Digital Life2006Guest 2006-10-16 01:01
I attended the 2006 Digital Life expo on saturday and let me say a few things. First off I have my PS3 preordered already and I am excited for it, but it makes no sense that PS3 won best of show. They only had 2 games showing (excluding a video with like 20 seconds of footage for about 10 games) NBA 07 and Resistance fall of man. NBA 07 looked ok too bad it was not playable. The only game playable was Resistance. And Resistance was abit of a letdown. graphically it had the best draw distance I have ever seen in a video game but unfortunatley that went downhill as you approached things. The textures looked downright horrible. The tires were square, the tires in Halo 2 looked better. And you NEVER saw more than 4 enemies on screen at once. While I am pretty sure there can be more as I have seen in videos on IGN.com. Other than thatthe game looked pretty solid and played nicely. Unfortunatelty they only had one Resistance display so you could imagine how long the wait to play it was. BUT IT STILL WAS NOT ASLONG AS THE WAIT TO PLAY WII. I will be the first to say that the wii games looked like crap. Madden on the original XBOX looks better than the WII version. but it was a hell of a lot of fun to play. Also you will not believe how small the system looks. The pictures do not show you the actual size. It is about the size of a DVD drive for your pc, YES THAT SMALL. Microsoft had a luklewarm showing. For some reason someone thought it was a good idea to put the 360 games on crappy Zenith standard definition televisions but the XBOX live arcade games on high definition samsung's, that person should be fired. Splinter Cell was the best 360 game atthe show.

oops,my boss is coming, i'll submit more later.
