I can't be the only one who thinks these are so much better with a co-commentator, right?

Imagine being in the army and you hear that the new guy that's joining your squad has been on 3 major missions and was the lone survivor of each mission. You're gonna probably think he's a badass that no one can stop or he sucks up all the good luck from whoever's around like a luck vampire.

Darren Norris, best known for voicing Cosmo in Fairly Odd Parents and a plethora of other stuff, voices Winters.

I just quit playing video games at this point. These videos are like I’m really there

You know what ticks me off.... Hale gets a sweet-looking knife in the opening cut-scene to the game. Carries it strapped to his forearm for the _entire_ course of the game.... and *NEVER* uses it! Not even once!! Not even in a cut-scene to sabotage some enemy communications. What kinda crap is that!? 😠

The fact this game had you fighting in Manchester cathedral caused a controversy here and people demanded it be removed from the game. It was cool for most people here to see our own city in a game for the first time though and people bought the game just because they knew Manchester was in

The thing I hated about this game is it takes place at York bus Station. I was living in York at the time and it was a massive bone of contention that the city council wouldn't grant planning permission to build a central bus station and thus the bus routes were poorly interconnected. True story.

I absolutely loved Resistance when it first came out. The whole backstory and lore involved with the first game were pretty good and I enjoyed how paranoid the American government came out to be from the lore tidbits that could be discovered. (Always enjoyed finding the deceased American Black Ops units that were scattered throughout the game and learning just how Xenophobic and closed-off the US had become after they had secretly? learned of Europe's downfall and did everything they could to hide the truth from the public.) I think it was the hidden lore and learning about what had happened to Europe, what was going on in America, how the Chimera were struggling to take land anywhere south of the Equator, how the weapons and vehicles looked and how they came to be, etc. that made me really love the first game of this series. The spinoffs were ok and I enjoyed the first spinoff where we fought to take back Paris (though if I'm remembering right, that game's main character felt like a carbon copy of Hale. Which didn't sit right with me.) The direct sequels, however, were very meh. 2 started out pretty great, but then it became way too sci-fi for my taste. The Chimeran weapons, and subsequently the human weapons as well, started to become way too out of hand with regards to how high-tech they felt as well as what they could do and made me wish that the creators had instead gone for the original idea with the series and just had the Chimera and Humans duking it out in space. Though I heavily enjoyed that Hale was starting to become more "Chimeran" as the game's story progressed, but then they just nonchalantly killed him off in what was literally the last 10 seconds of the game left a god awful taste in my mouth and I lost all hope for any future games within the series. Resistance 3, while fun, just made me think "Why is this even a part of the series?" the whole time I was playing it. I enjoyed the feral Chimera aspects of it as well as the bits that showed " crazy human who devolved into madmax tribal lunatics" angle, but the whole game just felt out of place.

Holy crap I didn't realize you nuked over 40 videos. Thank you for keeping em in the playlist.

I got it for free with my ps3 in 2007, really liked the game and its sequel. Never played the last one though

"Hale was the only survivor" "Hale was the only one to make it out" Does anyone ever suspect these super soldiers of maybe being the reason they're the only survivors? Like, ever?

It was either resistance 1 or 2, but I remember doing 1v1’s with my brother in it. I remember having hours of fun just firing the missile launcher far up into the sky, to then redirect the missile with the laser to wherever my brother was. Funniest thing seeing him on the coop screen try and snipe me, only to have the missile I had shot like a minute before come crashing down on him. 10/10 game

Holy damn, this is such a throwback. I remember playing this co-op for days when we were kids at my friends house. Nice to rediscover this and actually learn the story, we had no idea what it was about then because we didnt speak english

This game had some of the best weapons in this shooter generation. Also fast roping (going down a rope from a helo without a lanyard) is very much a thing. Doing it barehanded would burn the ever living crap out of your hands though

I love the Resistance series so damn much. Owned every one and remember beating them all in like a single weekend they were so good. Please review them all, including the PSP game. Not enough people talk about the series anymore even though they were the highlights of console FPS's during their hayday.

I really enjoyed this series. The lore they gave felt like observations on a new species. The other games were fun too. Seeing the wild varieties of chimeras that werent part of the hive mind and lacked coolers

Tbh I like the idea of throwing Parker out, giving her monologues to Cartwright and making him a colonel to explain why he orders people around...

Loved this series, wish it would make a come-back. As a Playstation kid, this was my "Halo".

this game was so difficult i loved every moment of it. very few games gave me such a satisfaction with every level passed. lol its funny because i finally learned about the homing feature on the very last level. which i used to cheesed the boss and never died once. it felt so good to give him all my pent up frustration i built slogging thru entire game.

That Jim Can't Swim edit was damn perfect. Earned a subscriber for that.

All that fossilized lore I have from playing this back in the day is slowly coming back to me. The Chimera, the hints of another alien race they fought aeons ago hinted about in the last game, the whole Clovis organization, the books they wrote for this series- how Hale killed the president in one of those. It’s all coming back to me.

This video feels like ih insisted it would be a good idea and no one wanted to help, but as soon as he started he didn’t want to do it anymore.

How is it possible that I randomly came across this channel a few days ago and right when I lamenting the time since I last heard this angelic voice? Been on a binge ever since.

The editing for this video is straight up godlike. I love the low-key, casual style and humor .

My grandfather once told me about life before safety gloves, working with metal and shit. You would get slivers of metal threaded into the skin of your hands, and my grandmother would have to pry the slivers out with tweasers and pliers. That's what happens when you don't use a carabiner to rappel into battle.

It feels like Parker was added to the game in order to have her spell out the story in those slideshow exposition pieces. I was wondering why the devs didn't have cutscenes to show the story instead, especially since the slides look like they were taken from cutscenes. Maybe it just wasn't feasible (rushed production?) so they used Parker to compensate. That's probably why she's everyone's commander as well. It's a reason for her to know all the details and to be relevant to the story she tells. Her line "I knew Hale would eventually find the map room." is such conjecture, it really sounds like the devs didn't plan for the voiceover at first.

I loved this game series as a kid, thank you for bringing this masterpiece back to the surface.

YOU HAVE 3 CHANNELS RELEASE 1 GOD DAMN NEW VIDEO, I CAN ONLY RE WATCH YOU SO MANY TIMES I LOVE YOU AND I NEED MOOOOOOOOOOORE GOD DAMN IT!😭😭

Dad has returned from getting a new expleened episode from the grocery store.

I was part of this really small multiplayer community on this game when I was 11 or 12, I remember the game mode being called Conversion? The game was ridden with people who used the Ethernet lagswitches to win. I also remember there being Ratchet and Clank in-game loot you could get as well. Such a simple yet brilliant game. Oh and of course, the glitch on Somerset to jump out of the map through that window on the 40-player map. So many fond memories.

Come back historian we need you!

with this video, you reminded me of my favorite game franchise that I have long forgotten

The voice actor "Sir" is the Head of team America spotteswoode 😂

5:41 I love how you singled out the quote "The Conversion Center was Built on top of an Old Fish Cannery" Like its the most important quote in the game lmfao

Please, continue. You guys are amazing and I'm quite addicted to your videos

Rocket launchers saying "THIS END TOWARD ENEMY" in real life is funny, but a truck-mounted machine gun saying "AIM AWAY FROM FACE" in the game is hilarious.

Nathan Hale: "I regret that I have but one life to give for my country." Nathan Hale after finding out that, not only is reincarnation a thing, it drops you into an alternate reality: "I regret regretting having only one life."

the voice actor in search is actually called Pyrocynical and got famous for his line "The aliens are coming"

IH really just gives us content and then leaves forever

WHERE ARE U GUYS! IS EVERYTHING OK! INTERNET HISTORIAN DISAPPEARED AT THE SAME TIME YALL DID AND IN THESE CRAZY TIMES U NEVER NO WHAT MIGHT OF HAPPENED. SO I HOPE UR ALL OK! God damn caps lock. I'm not retyping that!

This game was my introduction to ps3. Played it coop with a friend. Amazing game.

Can't believe Cthulhu kidnapping people and turning them gay, or straight... depending the original orientation. Smh he would never do this

Bless, these games feel like a fever dream to see again, I understand if you don’t do the other ones but I hope you do, just to relive it without, you know, actually reliving it haha

Two men walked into a bar with Hale. Only Hale came back out

That dicaprio cut got me off guard. I fucking love this channel

Is Mark just giving live commentary over a KZfaq video with no editing for this one? I love it

Finally a game summary channel, with movie ones becoming so popular i was about to do it myself. thanks for saving me the trouble

absolutely love this channel ❤️

Honestly one of my favourite games series. With all the remastering going on these days of old games, do me a favor and take this one with it. Awesome video :)

This is like the first time he sounds happy to be talking about the game they're expleened

"Just another day in WestFinster Minshire Burkshire Up On Heath On Hampton" My sides.

That last part were Nathan was holding the Grenade was so hilarious to me for some reason. And you commentary made it so much funnier. Good gracious🤣

I love Resistance 1 and 2, I talk about them constantly and nobody will listen, my kids are having me put in a home and this video is the only thing that understands me

Military ranks are a bit weird since they're two completely separate career tracks. While a Lieutenant *technically* outranks a Sergeant like this guy, Lt. Butterbars is going to listen damn well to him if he has any sense.

I REAALLLLLY wanted to play resistance back in the day. Great nostalgia trip!

I remember playing the psp resistance game and it was really fun with tons of secrets with extended details. Even had good horror elements!

The funny part of this is not the game nor the jokes but the fact you made this video using another KZfaq video. I applaud your efficiency sir

KZfaq interrupted that scene talking about getting bugs in your mouth with an ad for Domino's pizza. I don't know what that means.

Man, I got this when it came out and at the time the graphics blew my mind. Still doesn't look bad!

Man this is hell funny, especially where you fast forwarded I thought I was doing it and went back 3 times. you got me.

This has almost the exact same conceit and execution as the Blight in Dragon Age: Origins, down to the maze of caverns to the ancient spawn point. DA:O came out well after.

As a Brit-ish person, I bloody loved this picture slider with audio (or a video for you fosters and yankies) ! Soo much Queen and country representation! Im gunna hav a chin wag with my mates about this!

For some reason, I finished Fall of Man but have extremely vague memory of it. I mostly remember the game to be quite challenging, but I also think it was the DualShock 3 terrible trigger button that caused all shooter game on the PS3 to be annoying. Other than that, I do remember the basic of the story, the virus, invasion and all of that. It was quite absorbing back in the day, but not particularly so. It had that proper blend of horror and military. It’s half way between Halo and CoD. Too bad, they essentially ran out of ideas. Part of what made it a little forgettable was the brownish, grey colour tone. The Xbox also had Gears of War, so it didn’t feel like Resistance was doing anything special. Overall, I found that era of gaming quite fun. Gaming was approaching cinema, it was interesting to see what kind of things they wanted to adopt from cinema. Now it’s just the same thing recycled, after the novelty wore off.

Finally, after all these years…I have them all (internet historian channels)

The co-op in Resistance 2 and 3 was amazing! I played that for hours. Also I didn't realize how similar this game is to halo. You have your driving level, run and gun level and the final level is you running around destroying vents in a tower/ship structure to kill the alien/ monsters lmao

Tbh there’s a ton of fun weapons in this game that make gameplay more interesting, it’s a shame whoever made the playthrough video basically stuck to the first few you pick up lol

This is the first video I’ve ever seen from this guy and I subscribed 3 mins in lol

Man i love this channel

Sony really did everything they could to try and get some of that sc-fi- FPS love that Halo created by combining Halo with WWII...not once but TWICE. Killzone and Resistance.

5:40 I'm glad this 2 second scene of exposition is here. I think I would've been confused without that detail.

The melee in this game created some amazing rag dolls especially on those drone workers! first game I ever had on Ps3 all time favourite!

Used to play this game a lot, I'am glad someone notes this game existence :D Great video!

Darren Norris, probably most recognisable from the 9/11 * 1000 joke in Team America, Fairly Odd Parents, Powerpuff Girls, Naruto, Avatar, and a bunch of cartoons and vidya games

I remember playing a lot of Resistance 2. It had a decent multiplayer. Same with all the Killzone games

Fricking loved this game, and the sequel.

Absolute Gold! Internet Historian be GOAT

Oh shit I remember this game, it was actually really fun at the time, I loved the couch co-op modes

Is it just me or is that woman trying to narrate a How It's Made episode about these fictional creatures

My friends have recently gotten me into Yakuza and I move been playing it for a little bit and it just occurred to me that a summary/commentary on that would be absolutely hilarious. I’d say the original PS2 would the the funniest one to see, although Kiwami….

One of my favourite games when i was a small lil boy. Good memories

That voice actor is DARAN NORRIS ... I believe you probably know him from fairly odd parents or another Nickelodeon show or as Jack Smith ( Stan's dad) on American dad..... But hes been in a bunch of stuff going back to the mid nineties

"They're taken to a conversion center, where they are made gay or straight based on their original orientation." Oh shit that's why the main character is resistant then -- he must be bi.

Ayo this gives me major nostalgic vibes man

I remember buying a PS3 in like, 2012-2013 and this game was one of the many games I was super hyped to play. 5 minutes in and the low FPS and low FOV made me want to die. So thanks for explaining a game I'll never touch again but was interested in seeing its story.

Took me years to get the skeleton suit in achievements, great game especially multiplayer.

I remember playing this as my first FPS when I was a kid and I always remembered it like some kind of fever dream

The split-screen mode makes this game kinda perfect, like old halo

>HALE, get into that hangar and save the day! >Command? Yeah only Hale was able to get in. Send more smokes

Zuckerberg speaking at us make is seems this is all a historical account after the fact from the bug perspective.

such an incredibly fun trilogy. hope they get remastered for the ps5 *with* the multiplayer intact

Really hope you review the next one! One of my favorite game series!

Took me a while to find this channel, now I have more binging fuel

Remember this game being really good, played straight through it on co-op.

Thank God Historian is doing this game. It was so hyped up as an exclusive for the brand new PS3 and I couldn’t wait to play it. Then I finally did, and it was so lackluster that I couldn’t even bring myself to finish it. Still, the concept is interesting enough that I kinda want to see how it ends.

Loved the Jim Can't Swim reference!!!

"a judge deemed him fit to stand trial." Love jcs was dying when that happened love the content

Good I love the JCS commentator cropping up everywhere recently

I enjoyed the Resistance series, I've got fond memories of the MP in 2 and 3. Doubt Insomniac will ever revisit it though.

Why am I just finding this channel now. Starved of IH content I've been wandering a barren hellscape AND THIS HAS 44 VIDEOS
