Re:Impressions (Score 1)

Your first paragraph sums it up quite nicely, ITS FREE. I read a bit of the responses to this article before heading to work, and was somewhat miffed at all the folks out there who constantly complain about this and that concerning any particular game. I, for one, have really enjoyed the GT series, and have been playing them since GT3. When I downloaded GT: HD, my eyes literally watered when the opening trailer started. (I purchased a 46" DLP prior to the x360 launch last year, so, in HD, it truly is an amazing-looking simulation.) Your statement on some saying GT:HD is a high-res GT4 made me think that those stating said statement are full of smelly excrement. I've played GT4 in the 1080i setting on my DLP, and GT:HD is at least 3-5 times better-looking. (Frankly, I think the differences are night and day, based on pixelation, frame rate, and detail.) My only 'complaint' is the GT Force feedback wheel (for GT4) works well, except the 'force-feedback' isn't, um, forceful at all. (Probably will be patched soon.) I too, have R:FOM, and think that game is quite nice. Sure, let the Gears of War guys laugh and laugh- I'm waiting for what's available on the PS3 after it's been out as long as the 360 (at this point), and developers have had time to 'settle in' with the technology (then we'll see who's laughing). One of the best things about Resistance is the fact that frame rates never drop. Period. When I was in the latter stages of the game, I found myself wasting all the enemies, and then just wandering around, and looking around at the wonderfully detailed world I was playing in. FPS's have been pretty much played-out in any scenario one can think of, but, like you, Resistance kept (and is still keeping) me coming back for more. Haven't tried Full-Auto, a few reviews were horrible, and, at $60/pop, I'd prefer to wait for something like Rainbow 6: Vegas (I live there, matter-of-factly), or Motorstorm. On a side note, my PS3 gamertag is the same as the one I use here, so feel free to add me, but let me know who you are...
