all games are not created equal

I got Resistance 1 and 2 for Christmas, and my conscience won't let me even touch Resistance 2 before I beat the first one.  I can remember that this game, like many others, was supposed to be a "Halo Killer". 

Now I myself tend to hate Halo, if due to the fanbase more than anything.  I never thought Halo did anything incredibly revolutionary or special.  However, I'm finding myself liking Resistance even less.  Resistance does have a few cool weapons without feeling like they're all the same, including a standard assault rifle, sniper, energy gun that shoots through walls, shotgun, and a mini-gun that shoots needles.  Neat!  The enemies are also interesting to look at too.

However, I absolutely hate the AI in Resistance, and for one reason only: They all have perfect accuracy.  Seriously, in a typical FPS these days, you can pop out from cover and sit there while capping off a few baddies while their bullets go whizzing by you.  However in this game, you have to literally be dodging the entire time!  If you hold still for a second, you're gonna get hit!  The only reason you're able to win is because the enemies' energy bullets travel so rediculously slow.

I give the first Halo the win because I remember having more fun during the co-op campaign than I did with Resistance, plus I enjoyed screwing around in vehicles and doing stuff I wasn't supposed to (like squeezing a Warthog through a tunnel that it shouldn't go in)
