Who is making resistance burning skies

Also, will it ever have Ad-Hoc Party support? Oh great, 3 avatars that you cannot even use on the Vita unless you have a ps3. How exciting. That gave me false hope for some kind of co-op mode. Is there a way to play this alone? One of the major selling points with games for me is high replayability. So for me this really needs just a single player horde mode kind of thing for me to buy it. It is a pain to carry extra cartridges around when it can all be on my memory card. The sad part is I would be able to get the cartridge at the store at opening, PSN will have it in the afternoon of release.

I agree with 19 SandSkorpion. Rytteren April 23, at am PDT. Glad to see the RE universe is still alive thanks in part to the developers!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please in a DLC make a hardcore mode, capture the flag, or chain reaction. Does anyone ever wish there was a resistance RTS?

Day one for me too. I love Resistance. Brapp April 24, at pm PDT. Wrru April 28, at pm PDT. It plays well enough, with standard twin-stick controls, trigger on the right shoulder and the Vita's rear touch double-tapped for a sprint. The Vita's front screen is used more sensibly than not. Tap enemies to lock on a target with them for the Bullseye. Swipe the screen diagonally to load the crossbow with napalm rounds. There's no great reason to have to tap doors to open them, but it's not the end of the world either if it was Tom Riley would save us.

The worst touch-screen feature in the game is Burning Skies ' ridiculous upgrade system that requires not just some finger-taps to apply two upgrades on each of the game's eight weapons but requires the player to rotate a cube on which markings representing any of the six upgrades may be etched.

You must rotate the cube to reveal the upgrade you want, adding a bit of needless fumbling until you find the etching of the upgrade listed to the right—listed, I should point out, in a list that you should just be able to tap on to add said upgrade. Without the PSP excuses of a single analog stick nub or the iPad excuse of having none, Burning Skies has only its proximity to the Vita's launch to explain why it does so little with excellence.

If Vita games can stand beside console games, then this game is a schlub next to the gorgeous third-person shooter Max Payne 3 that I was also playing this weekend, its enemies dumber and its environments far less interesting to look at.

Is that unfair? Shall we compare sidekick fighter Ellie to Alyx Vance? Shall we compare this to the console Resistance games or to Halo after all? We shouldn't because this game has neither the graphics nor the enemy intelligence to compete. Its music drops out often enough that it also doesn't have the score. Nor does it have a hero, the over-sold Tom Riley who the cut-scenes want us to believe is a dynamo but who the gameplay reveals to be, at best, just another Nathan Hale though with such sharply-resounding footfalls that I wondered more than once if he was wearing high heels.

I've played all of the Resistance games other than Resistance 3 and this one has offered me the least in ingenuity or refinement, frustratingly so because this is the only FPS I've ever played that ostensibly stars a fireman.

What's been made here is not so much a good game as a solid showpiece. In your hands could be a Vita with proof that a portable twin-stick shooter can be done. Now let's get a good one. In the days after the review ran—and once the game was released—I had trouble connecting online. Two days after release, Nihilistic released a patch that allowed me and others connect to online matches. I subsequently spent an hour enjoying the game's basic online modes.

They're borrowing, as many do, from Modern Warfare 's role-playing-game style leveling-up system, which gives you experience points for good kills and matches won. The XP is counted toward unlocking new ranks, which in turn unlock new weapons and weapon mods.

The weapons and mods are all brought over from the game's single-player, which actually helps justify the laborious approach to upgrading weapons found in the campaign. In retrospect, I can say that the campaign successfully educated me about how all the weapons and mods work, which is ideally what a solo campaign would do for a multiplayer gamer. There are no big surprises in multiplayer that the single-player weapon-set doesn't tease. YES NO.

In This Article. Resistance: Burning Skies is a unique Resistance experience developed specifically for PS Vita that takes full advantage of the system's dual analog sticks and features an all-new hero and story. Violence, Strong Language, Blood and Gore.
