time splitters predates halo and uses the same control skeme pretty much.

Uh, no it doesn't. It uses the dual analog sticks, but it doesn't have a dedicated grenade button and doesn't have the smart-cursor that Bungie first implemented into console FPS to compensate for the lack of precision when using a

halo also ripped off half life.

Yeah, I keep hearing that and still can't stop laughing my ass off over how absurd it is to see anyone is so big a jackass to buy that. Pray tell, what exactly did Halo rip off of Half-Life? Is it the headcrab zombie you're talking about? Nope, the flood are far too different in that they aren't slow, they constantly keep multiplying and are smart enough to use human and Covenant weapons.

the scifi is pretty much standard fare. so lets not get into a pissing match about originality between games now shall we.

Yeah, tell that to Liz who's been ranting away endlessly that Resistance is sooo original. Yet the moment I correct him, you snap. You sure as hell know when to drop in, don't you? :

the sixaxis is improved over the dual shock with regards to the analog sticks or so i hear it's also got triggers where a set of sholder buttons used to be. taking good elements of the x-box controller design and moving them to the great form factor of the dual shock shape. i would like to try out both the 360 pad and the sixaxis before making any judgement on which is better tho.

Hahaha, you really don't get it do you? The problem of the dual analog sticks being too close to each other is readily apparent in the PS3 controller as well (I refuse to call it that suxasses name or whatever) considering just how similiar it's base design is to the dual-shock. As for the triggers and how good the controller itself has been reported to be, you won't like what thse guys had to say about that:

http://ps3.ign.com/articles/738/738858p2.html

"...Instead of duplicating that, we'll take a look at one last thing - possibly the most controversial aspect of the PS3: the controller. Prepare to be shocked though: we don't really like it all that much. True enough, you can go along with Phil Harrison's proclamation that it's already the industry-standard controller amongst umpteen-million gamers around the globe, but, arguably, that doesn't make it the best. Personally, we can't help but feel that the SIXAXIS (as it's now known) has been sadly neglected when viewed alongside the rest of the PS3. Compared to Microsoft's uber-comfortable Xbox 360 pad, the SIXAXIS feels cheap, plasticky, uncomfortable and disconcertingly light - almost as if it's going to fly out of your hands during those more extreme gaming moments.

More worrying still, the newly-designed lower L and R shoulder triggers feel more like they belong on an early controller prototype than the near-final model. Replicating the 360 pad, rather than being simple shoulder-mounted buttons, the triggers are now hinged horizontally along the controller, with pressure forcing them inward along the bottom - like triggers then, really. Trouble is, they're placed almost unnaturally low meaning we found ourselves operating them by jamming our fingers in between the hinges to apply pressure, rather than using the buttons themselves. What's more, the triggers are convex, with no grooves to keep your fingers in place - an issue further compounded by their smooth finish, offering no resistance against your finger tips. Invariably we found our digits slipping off with the triggers snapping back to their default position. Bah. Of course, the PS2's Dual Shock pad wasn't without its faults either but we still learned to live with it. It's just a shame that Sony hasn't used its resources to bring its controller up to next-gen standards along with its cutting-edge hardware."

Yeah, umm, the 360 still has the better controller.

the up shot of that is that less auto aim should be in the games leading to greater opertunities for head shots etc.

What're you babbling about? Ever played a "snipers only" match in Halo multiplayer?

 

[Mentok]

ROFL... He acts like the auto aim in console games means you just have to shoot in the genral direction of the enemy

Hey Fenrir, if Resistance sucks so bad then why does Halo have to take its original weapons? I rest my case. The daddy of all first person shooters has run out of ideas and has to steal from Resistance to keep ahead of it.

And then have the audasicity to say that they created it and Insomniac stole it from them. F**K that, you're just an Xbox fan boy who at times do make good points but right now you have nothing to go on.

Just ****ing wait until Resistance comes out and in the mean time I can boast and ****e it all I want. Let me get sad when the game sucks. But nothing you say will change my mind so stop while your a head.

Quite trying to get "The ass of the year" award.

Hey Liz, if Halo sucks so bad, then why does Resistance have to take it's original weapons and control scheme? I rest my case. Your precious Resistance has run out of ideas (heck, when did it even have any of it's own to begin with?) and has to steal from Halo and Return to Castle Wolfenstein just to stay competitive.

And then have the audasicity to say that they created it and Insomniac stole it from them. F**K that, you're just an Xbox fan boy who at times do make good points but right now you have nothing to go on.

No, I always make good points and you lack the logical ground and the intellectual capacity to ever reply to any of them. Resistance is nothing but a big mishmash of derivative ideas taken from so many other games that goes from Halo to WW2 shooters to Wolfenstein and even Resident Evil. Sure it can be a decent shooter when all is said and done, but let's face it - you've been dying for a Halo killer since so long it's not even funny anymore. Your "Area-51" antics alone should have knocked some sense into you to shut the **** up. There's nothing ORIGINAL about Resistance. There's nothing SPECIAL about Resistance. If only you try and pull your head out of the sand every once in a while you'd see that.

Just ****ing wait until Resistance comes out and in the mean time I can boast and ****e it all I want. Let me get sad when the game sucks. But nothing you say will change my mind so stop while your a head.

I know nothing will change your mind. But damn does it feel great to slap some delusional fanboy like yourself back to reality.

Quite trying to get "The ass of the year" award.

You mean the "ass of the year" who gets his make-believe friends to come and argue on a message board just because some forum members don't think so highly of his precious game? Or like the "ass of the year" who trolls every other forum thread plaguing it with his Resistance feces (at least I have the humility to stay on topic in threads) and tired, overused and predictable "sarcasm"?

Liz, you can't imagine how deeply saddened I am by the fact that you're not even smart enough to grasp the sheer irony behind that statement of yours. *sniff*

 

[Avalanche]

No, I always make good points

No one always makes good points. Not objectively.

This point in itself was not a good point.

 

[LongDong]

Pitty the DUALSHOCK has no triggers

L1 and L2

R1 and R2

Buttons used trigger style.

derrrrrrrrrrrrr

 

[LongDong]

It's not the triggers, chump. It's the analog sticks that are too close to each other which makes it a blunder for FPSs, especially when compared to the significantly superior Xbox controllers. Funny how you try to "correct" me without even having a bloody clue as to what I was even talking about in the first place. :

Xbox controllers cannot hold a candle to the dualshocks. What you state is a matter of taste, one persons over the other.

I personally like the dual analogues where they are, and the dual trigger buttons are VASTLY superior to the stupid little white and black buttons on the xbox controllers.

Dual shock controllers are more comfortable to hold as well.

chump. lol. getting personal eh? not a good sign for you.

 

[Fenrir]

I do. Now be quiet.

 

[LongDong]

Ask that to all the people who always get owned at Halo on the Xbox when playing with a PS2 controller (using an adapter, of course). That's the best possible example I can give why the PS2 controller sucks for first-person shooters. Oh and the fact that PS2 barely even had a decent FPS where the Xbox had more than a handful only reinforces the point.

lol. And you know so many who use that adapter and who get owned I assume? Not likely. Could it be that the "one or two" you know who use adapters to play on the xbox just are not good at those games? Could it be that they are not used to that particular game in general?

Your points stink of xbox fanboyism.

Your generalized statements are just your biased opinion and nothing more.

 

[LongDong]

For a start... Dual weilding.



Please dont tell me you believe that

I call bull****. That was not a Halo original feature. That goes way back to the N64 Goldeneye game. Saying that Resisance ripped that off from Halo is so far from the truth it is not even funny. That sort of ability is fairly common in games, not just Halo.

 

[Fenrir]

Except no one cares about the Xbox's controllers now that we have the vastly superior 360 controller.

I personally like the dual analogues where they are, and the dual trigger buttons are VASTLY superior to the stupid little white and black buttons on the xbox controllers.

Yet the PS3 controllers' triggers, according to IGN, are awkwardly placed and as a controller, is obviously inferior to the 360. You lose.

Dual shock controllers are more comfortable to hold as well.

Apparently the PS3's controller is not the dual shock. Really, read IGN's report. You'll find it quite displeasing.

chump. lol. getting personal eh? not a good sign for you.

It's my gimmick. Get used to it. Chump.

Ah, but Halo was the first one to give you independent firing action for both weapons, as well as the ability to hold a different weapon in each hand. Try again. Chump.

Why bring up the PS3 controller? Some things that make no sense in your debating the PS3 controller are:

1) You have NEVER held one in your hand, you cannot have an educated opinion on it. Stop talking out of your ass like usual, and bring facts. Who cares what some schmuck writing a review says about the controller, it doesn't mean that you or I would not like it. Well I think it probably does mean you won't as you are an xbot, but that is neither here nor there.

2) we were discussing the Dualshock controller versus the xbox controller, only someone losing a debate would twist it and bring this other crap into the debate.

Your point is? You change the argument to suit your need to try to win a debate. Dual wielding has been around for a decade, point closed. They added a twist to it, whoopie freakin do.

 

[Fenrir]

No, we used to have 16-player Halo tournaments all the time at our local gaming superstore where anyone and everyone dropped in for a match or two. The store clerks even kept PS2 controller adapters for players who couldn't get used to the Xbox controllers and those pitiful souls still got owned everytime.

Your points stink of xbox fanboyism.

Your rebuttal stinks of Sony fanboyism.

Your generalized statements are just your biased opinion and nothing more.

Yup, biased opinion based on personal factual observations. Your response is nothing but typical fanboy denial with ZERO substance.

You ignore the points made to try and stop losing a debate.

Actually, Halo 2's dual wielding is technically the only one that deserves the term. All other games simply had the character wield the same two weapons in each hand that practically worked no different than normal weapons. Pay attention now and you won't feel so lost in the discussion.

Your orginality is impressive. Way to take what I say, twist it around on me. Wow. You are gooooooooooood.

Apparently in your bizarro-land, a poster has to be original in his responses instead of making valid points to "win" a debate.

Oh and your reply reeks of your inability to respond to my arguments.

 

[THE LIZARD#1]

Fenrir, do you have something against me? Like what the hell did I do to piss you off so badly?

Anyways you make some what good points but you ponder the past way way to much. Get some new material and answer My questions. Stop answering my questions in the form of a question and answer it.

What did Resistance take from Halo? Name something other than the Needler which so many people are saying is more like the gun from The Fifth Element and not tying it to Halo. Thought I would let you know that.

My friend is a gun freak and he does know a ton about weapons because thats something that interests him so you don't know what the hell you are talking about so just stop.

Another thing stop using that stupid Area 51 thing against me. Like I said you think about the past and not to much about the future. You're like a broken record playing saying the same crap over and over again.

Resistance is a good game and its original, i'm sorry you guys can't see that but when the reviews come in hopefully they say something nice about Resistance and actually show you what makes me gitty about this game.

This is the first killer app for the Playstation 3 as some people have said, and there has been nothing but good reviews for it. The only negative ones come from Halo fanboys such as yourself. So thats why I think non of you like it.

Just like Nine Inch Nails fans will never like Metallica. But you Fenrir you will never admit to being wrong and you condradict yourself way to much. Thats how you're never going to win an argument.

 

[Fenrir]

Fenrir, do you have something against me? Like what the hell did I do to piss you off so badly?

I don't like you. Your own mama doesn't like you. Nobody likes you.

Anyways you make some what good points but you ponder the past way way to much. Get some new material and answer My questions. Stop answering my questions in the form of a question and answer it.

Looks like you avoided answering the points I made earlier. Guess that means I was right on that and you were wrong. Thanks for the confirmation, chump.

What did Resistance take from Halo? Name something other than the Needler which so many people are saying is more like the gun from The Fifth Element and not tying it to Halo. Thought I would let you know that.

Give me a ****ing break. Please, show me these "many people" who say that the Needler as the gun from The Fifth Element and not from Halo. Go ahead, I dare you. You've spewed so much garbage in the past and I've caught your bluff just as many times, figured you'd have been smart enough to drop the habit by now. :

Oh and Resistance also uses the standard FPS control scheme that Halo established. Besides, they took a ****load more from Return to Castle Wolfenstein. Halo is not the only game Insomniac ripped off from, ya know.

My friend is a gun freak and he does know a ton about weapons because thats something that interests him so you don't know what the hell you are talking about so just stop.

Please, your jackass friend was claiming that only blanks have visible muzzle flash because they don't have any kind of projectile and real-life demonstration of weapons prove how wrong he is. Gun-freak my ass.

Another thing stop using that stupid Area 51 thing against me. Like I said you think about the past and not to much about the future. You're like a broken record playing saying the same crap over and over again.

"Those who don't learn from history are forced to repeat it"

Resistance is a good game and its original, i'm sorry you guys can't see that but when the reviews come in hopefully they say something nice about Resistance and actually show you what makes me gitty about this game.

Can you please point out what is so "original" about Resistance? I for one, can pin down a lot of things it has borrowed from other games.

This is the first killer app for the Playstation 3 as some people have said, and there has been nothing but good reviews for it. The only negative ones come from Halo fanboys such as yourself. So thats why I think non of you like it.

I think Killzone 2 will have a much better chance of being a Halo-killer for Sony than the average looking Resistance. Whoops, there goes the Halo fanboy accusation. Try again, Lizzy. And this time try using that invaluable organ you call a brain for a change.

Just like Nine Inch Nails fans will never like Metallica. But you Fenrir you will never admit to being wrong and you condradict yourself way to much. Thats how you're never going to win an argument.

Liz, may I remind you that have NEVER, I mean not ONCE have successfully replied to even one-fourth of the points I make in my post. And for God's sake, at least learn to spell big words like "contradict" (and more importantly what it actually means) before using them in your posts lest you make any bigger a fool out of yourself.
