| Hi. Can you provide some reasoning behind your assertion that Resistance is a killer game? I don't know of anyone rushing out to buy a PS3 just to play it (as happened with GTA etc). Indeed, its page on gamerankings is just 87.4%, below Forza 2, which isn't considered a "killer game" for 360. Please don't add it back again without some sort of proof or something. Thanks. ]]] 18:52, 18 June 2007 (UTC) | Hi. Can you provide some reasoning behind your assertion that Resistance is a killer game?

| :Unfortunately, just because you think Resistance is an "awesome" game isn't criteria for inclusion. I think ] is excellent, as do ''all'' the people I know, but it's not a "killer" game.

While I admit the killer game section is subjective, I think a good rule of thumb is if the game caused people to take a far greater interest in the console - usually it's a genre defining game (Halo, GTA, Goldeneye), or has better graphics than anything else (Metal Gear 2, Gears of War, Mario 64). I know many people who bought consoles for Goldeneye, Halo and GTA, myself included. Resistance, while good, did not excel, and I don't know of anyone who bought a PS3 simply to play it, and nothing else (as was the case in the other games). In time, there will be "killer" PS3 games, but at the moment, there aren't any. ]]] 21:54, 18 June 2007 (UTC) | :Unfortunately, just because you think Resistance is an "awesome" game isn't criteria for inclusion.

Resistance as a Killer game
Hi. Can you provide some reasoning behind your assertion that Resistance is a killer game? I don't know of anyone rushing out to buy a PS3 just to play it (as happened with GTA etc). Indeed, its page on gamerankings is just 87.4%, below Forza 2, which isn't considered a "killer game" for 360. Please don't add it back again without some sort of proof or something. Thanks.

- Unfortunately, just because you think Resistance is an "awesome" game isn't criteria for inclusion. I think Pro Evolution Soccer 4 is excellent, as do all the people I know, but it's not a "killer" game. Likewise Eternal Darkness, Burnout 3 etc. Gears of War was definitely seen as a benchmark in the quality and graphics of Xbox 360 games. Resistance is only a launch game, and while great, it didn't cause shortages of the PS3, and the attachment rate isn't as high as something like the PS2 and GTA, or Xbox and Halo, or whatever. While I admit the killer game section is subjective, I think a good rule of thumb is if the game caused people to take a far greater interest in the console - usually it's a genre defining game (Halo, GTA, Goldeneye), or has better graphics than anything else (Metal Gear 2, Gears of War, Mario 64). I know many people who bought consoles for Goldeneye, Halo and GTA, myself included. Resistance, while good, did not excel, and I don't know of anyone who bought a PS3 simply to play it, and nothing else (as was the case in the other games). In time, there will be "killer" PS3 games, but at the moment, there aren't any. Fin©™ 21:54, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
