Terminator: Resistance

As someone who has been playing games like Half Life, Tomb Raider etc for years now I am not new to the world of first- person shooters. I love the Terminator movies and this game, also the DLC, definitely do them justice.

Firstly, the atmosphere is amazing. Scary. I like the fact that in the first part of the game you have to hide from the Terminators to progress. You're on the edge.

Secondly, the music is super. Adds "creepiness" and tension to the atmosphere of the game play.

As for the quality of the gaming itself- design, weapons etc- there is absolutely nothing to complain about.

I've played this game several times now and am not tired of it.

I HOPE THEY WILL DO ANOTHER!!

First off, to refute another review on here, you CAN shoot Terminators in the game. And you kind of have to, unless you're stockpiling explosives. That reviewer clearly didn't play much of the game.

When I heard that Teyon, developer of the not-so-great Rambo video game, had acquired the license to create a Terminator game, I prepared for a similar experience; an on-the-rails shooter with ugly visuals and chock full of voice clips from the movies. However, this game turned out much better, and honestly, I enjoyed it much more than Terminator: Dark Fate, the franchise's most recent film.

The game's story puts you in the shoes of a Resistance member in the midst of the war against Skynet, the very war seen in a few scenes of the first two Terminator films. And not to mention, this game actually ties directly into the plots of those films and is full of references to them, so one can tell that this game was indeed created by fans of the films. But overall, the plot here was nothing amazing, but enjoyable for Terminator fans. While some would say it's a short game (took me about 8 hours total, including side content), but I felt it was just the right length.

The voice acting is okay, I suppose. There aren't any standout performances, but there also weren't any that made me cringe. The graphics aren't anything to write home about, but they're a major improvement over Rambo's. There aren't any celebrity likenesses used in this game, so the "that looks nothing like Stallone" issue Rambo had was avoided.

As for the gameplay, it's pretty much standard-fare first-person-shooter. It's not a broken buggy mess or anything, but it can get pretty repetitive and monotonous, which I suppose is the main reason I didn't rate it much higher. That, and it's not particularly amazing on any fronts, aside from the fact that it is much, much better than their previous attempt at a film license. Speaking of that, I assume Teyon will do another film license next... I'll hope for RoboCop.

I loved Terminator: Resistance! The gameplay combat with all the very cool guns, and laser rifles was very fun, and sounded perfect. The attention to detail in making the Future War scenery was awesome and making the sounds of all the guns sound exactly like how they were in the first two films was perfect. The stealth aspect of the gameplay combat also was definitely fun. I really liked the music too; the music again sounded perfect because it sounded just like the music in the first two Terminator films, and the game incorporated some new other very good instrumental music too. The storyline however was bad, and its decision-making aspect throughout the story was really bad, but I still loved it. Without doubt I really enjoyed this game, and hope to see more, but better games in the future like it. Have a great day, and goooo Terminator Resistance!

This is easily the best Terminator game ever, at last a good Terminator game.., and a very good FPS in general.

The atmosphere and action is really superb, and you think that you are watching and actively taking part in the T1 or T2 movies.

The music and sounds are perfect, so 80s.., especially the main menu theme, except for the dialogs which sometimes sound a bit strange and like somebody is just reading them in a room, and the graphics although not top are quite good, with nice colors and sceneries and set you very well in the mood of the after Judgement Day War..

The story is very believable and interesting with plenty of action all the time. The game also has some RPG elements, you collect stuff, improve your weapons, abilities, craft items etc.

Overall a very good action FPS and by far the best Terminator game ever..till now.

Recommended to everyone and STRONGLY recommended to ALL Terminator fans, this is a must have.

I would even say that so far for me the Terminator Universe should comprise only of T1, T2, Terminator Salvation & this game!, Terminator Resistance.

Bought this game on sale ($19) and greatly enjoyed it. The people at Teyon clearly love the first 2 Terminator films and have learned from their previous game flops. Animations are a bit stiff (for faces and hands) and the texture fidelity isn't the best, but the plasma guns feel so good to shoot.
