I'm not a big fan of Resistance: Fall of Man. I know a few people who got PS3s when it came out so I played quite a bit of the game over winter break a few months ago.
The biggest problem I had with the game was that often, in the campaign, cover means nothing because half the bad guys can shoot through walls. Also, in the campaign, the maps are uninspired and often have many repeating identical sections- I'm a fairly experienced console FPS gamer and got lost more than a few times.
In other news, I recently downloaded and tried the Command and Conquer 3 demo. I was pretty impressed by it, but I think I'll hold off on buying it for a few reasons. The last few times a C&C game was released, I rushed to the store to buy it immediately, only to become bored after about a week (Tiberian Sun, Generals). The second reason is that my laptop can barely support the graphics- I have a Radeon X300 mobile which is fairly crappy. I can only render the game at decent framerates with low resolution and detail settings.
For lack of willingness to spend money on a new laptop when the one I have works fine for most things, I'm going to end up buying an Xbox 360 Elite to do most of my gaming, I anticipate. I can't wait for Halo 3.
