I'm so stoked about these two games... but I can only get one, and I don't really want to buy both because they are both FPS and I want to save money for Prototype or inFamous when they come out.

I like the sound of the free-roam, 50km2 to explore and AI in Far Cry 2,

But also the 60 player online, 8 player co-op, and continuing story of Resistance: Fall of Man with Resistance 2.

I have Resistance: Fall of Man, so I guess I want to continue the story, but Far Cry 2 just looks so good. What do you decide?

Also don't be fanboys/girls and suggest a different game, I've decided these two only, and doing so will be considered as spam.

Far Cry 2 looks much more appealing to me. To each his own though ^.^

So i voted for resistance 2.

Yeah I think I'm favouring Resistance 2 right now. The first one had me hooked so much, and Resi 2 has heaps more multiplayer than Far Cry 2, apparently. Well yeah.

Resistance: Fall of Man was one of the worst games i've ever played, and unless they address all the things I hated about the first one (which they probably wont) then its a no brainer...Far Cry 2 for sure...Though to be perfectly honest I probably won't get either...which begs the question, what am I doing on this board? lol

EDIT: Just watched the E3 vid for Far Cry 2, looks awesome. Definetly Far Cry 2.

Please explain to me what was wrong with Resistance? Basically everthing in Resistance 2 is getting upgraded.

Perhaps I was unfairly harsh on the game but I thought the lack of destructible environments was completely unforgivable. I found the control scheme difficult to manage, in particular simply moving around seemed incredibly slow for a FPS. What I saw of the enemy seemed rather ordinary too (I didn't get too far into it before giving up) and the multiplayer was lackluster.

I can see what you're talking about. Well, most games dont have destuctible environments. I think there is only one game with destructible enivironment out right now. I actually thought the controls were great. I do agree that it was kind of slow but not to slow to hamper the game at all. The multiplayer is probably one of the funnest to play right behind COD4.

I gather your a big fan of Resistance, that's fair enough, I admired the game's story and setting at least. I sometimes forget that I shouldn't compare games from the PS3's launch to games of today such as Battlefield: Bad Company, which i've been playing recently and admiring the destruction I can cause to the world around me. I'll probably give Resistance 2 a rental at the least.

Far Cry 2 for sure. Far Cry looks to innovate in a lot of ways: an actual paper map you pull out of your pocket, a fully realized weather system that affects your gameplay, day/night cycle that you can use to your advantage and actually rest until it's the time of day you prefer. It seems like Far Cry 2 might be everything S.T.A.L.K.E.R. should have been and more. THe only question you need to ask yourself: do you want more of the same with bigger and potentially better, or do you want a shooter that turns the genre on its head and incorporates (gasp) things that haven't been seen before. Answer is easy for me... but **** I'm getting both, lol.

i played resistance but i didn't like the gameplay so i'm going to choose far cry 2 because you can go anywhere and do anything in the game.
