I thought this one was an "underrated gem". it's one i've been meaning to play for like 10 years. i skipped Fall of Man and Resistance 2 just to get to the one that supposedly had a story and maybe some crisper post-Modern Warfare gunplay.

such a weird game tho. it's like if neil druckmann made Bulletstorm. or somebody interspliced paragraphs from The Road into one of the Halo novels (or the Halo games, I guess, fucking plays as monotonously as the Library from Halo 1 but with the aesthetic of like every boring late-00s/early-10s brown FPS).

just... really boring. i guess i liked the dust bowl atmosphere of the early levels which isn't something a lot of games do. but like when you're just shooting mindless aliens creatures, it kind of seems like a huge waste of time.
