Fighting off hordes of Terminators whilst that iconic synth track was playing was one of my most memorable gaming moments of 2019.įor those of you who haven’t played the original game (or who have forgotten they played it), Resistance is an FPS game with adventure style missions in semi-open world environments. Most striking of all was the magnificent final level that saw an assault on Skynet’s base set to the fantastic original Brad Fiedel score.

Resistance stood out from the games that preceded it by having a genuine sense of heart (although the less said about the sex scenes the better). Unfortunately, aside from some simple arcade fun most of these have been disappointments, with the likes of Terminator 3 and Terminator: Salvation providing games as underwhelming as the films on which they were based. So how do we square it in this game? If T2 happened, then how are we here in the future war? Sorry again if this has already been asked a million times.There is a long tradition of Terminator games going right back to the home computersof the early 90s. Something about skynet not having a core and just being software right? So that means that T2 happened, but I'm pretty sure the whole point of that movie was they actually successfully stopped Judgement Day and the future war from ever taking place right? And the whole point of the third movie (which I know sucked but bare with me) was that no matter what they did Judgment Day will always happen. Three terminators are sent back in time, Arnie, the T-8000, and the one from the start of the game. And this is also based on my memory of the movies which I actually haven't seen in ages, I should probably watch them again before posting this but fuck it, if I'm wrong someone here will tell me lol.īasically, according to this game, the original movie and T2: Judgment Day did in fact happen. But something's been bothering me, maybe its already been settled, I don't know. So I love this game, like fucking love it, just want to say that right off the bat.
