Terminator: Resistance (Xbox One)

Considering this game was made with a small team and a limited budget it is very well done. Lots of nod backs and Easter eggs relating to the first and second terminator films. Decent gun play, story and characters create an enjoyable 6-8 hour experience depending on how you play. Worth the buy, especially if you are a fan of the OG terminator films.

first off its not the greatest game you are ever likely to play but if you are a fan of Terminator buy it at some point, the price might be a little high as lots of people love cheap deals but for £30-£35 you can burn through a weekend or two traipsing through a rather impressive game... the graphics aren't the greatest and the lip syncing of characters is a bit weak breaking immersion somewhat but the gameplay is just fantastic. Its so fun to try to crawl through the world and not get caught by one of the bigger machines, got intense and even gave me some scares as I turned a corner straight at a T-800.I think its important to note that the game is rather easy so if you are experienced with shooters you really should put it on hard difficulty to start off with.

good game

Xmas present

I read one review that mentioned the inclusion of characters from the films and apart from John Connor (who looked like anyone but the films' actor's) and the Terminator's metal skeleton, I must have missed the others. It's a fairly linear loot and shoot that is over far too quickly and while there is a touch of 'open world' within each 'episode' or quest, the game tries to get you to rush through in the latter half of the game and feels restrictive, which is annoying, as you miss either side quests or loot that is useful, like ammo etc. Not a bad game but as I said, too short and too much of a parody to rate 4 stars, never mind 5.

On 1st impressions the game looks average, but give it time and you will uncover a real gem as you cant put the pad down its that addictive. Hope they do a sequal with better graphics engine, cause it would be game of the year.

I like that this is a campaign only game, no online battlefield nonsense that games are today (which I hate). Some things are a grind such as collecting tradeable resources to get upgrades with the XP skill point system. The lockpicking maybe fun at first but when you have to do it a hundred times at variable difficulties it gets annoying, same with the hacking.The Gamerscore is not divided very well as all achievements are obtainable on easy difficulty level, so there is no way of verifying if someone got the achievement on extreme difficulty level (highest). 1000 Gamerscore as normal, no DLC as of yet. I have completed the game twice first on easy then on extreme. My first play through on easy was just to get a feel for the game I wasn't planning to go through the entire campaign on easy but when I ended up finishing the game I restarted the campaign on extreme difficulty for my second playthrough to get the two achievements I missed on my first playthrough.Finishing the game on extreme difficulty was not really satisfying as there was no achievement to show game completion on highest difficulty, if they release any updates or DLC for this game I hope they address this flaw. Overall I enjoyed this game I wish it had been harder and longer as even playing on extreme difficulty I finished the game in under 15 hours, much less on easy. Not really worth the £49.99 price tag as I only played it for less than two days and as I have gone through the campaign twice now I won't be playing this game again for quite a while. Unless they release extra missions DLC.I pre-ordered and got the code for the online comic (which of no interest to me personally, but others may feel different). It's in the box as a leaflet.

Fast delivery brilliant game if your a fan of the movies 1and 2
