I wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed your excellent profile on all these exceptional PS3 exclusives! Not just this follow up video, but the first one you covered on these fantastic Sony exclusives! I gave both a enthusiastic like & instantly subbed to see & hear more, terrific work my friend!
@RetroMediaRoom "MotorStorm Pacific Rift" is by far the best in the series! You will be blown away with insane tracks with incredible air you get with jumps. It's like a killer race on a hidden Tropical Island !
Me and My Girlfriend Love playing through the Co-op mode (resistance 2) its tough two people but we take on that challenge wish the game was still online. Resistance 3 was a blast the campaign I've played through it with many friends. Killzone 3 my favourite. Resistance my favourite series
I forgot to mention how much I appreciated you championing the total hidden gem & underdog "Twisted Metal" reboot on PS3. I broke down & got a new PS3 Slim just to play "Twisted Metal", just like I did in 1995 with my first Playstation tall-box game, "Twisted Metal" & later bought my first PS2 just to savor "Twisted Metal Black"! I would recommend just playing the completely customizable "Challenge Mode" in the PS3 game, you can choose the level, enemies, number of enemies & weapons, with side kicks. That way you can play individual levels to your liking, just like in the first two games in the series or like within "TM Black"! Anyway, loved the video & a well laid out fun factor for each game mentioned!
Thank you! I've always been a fan of the series (Twisted Metal 1 was the first PS1 game I ever played when it launched) and wanted to show them some love.
Great videos! Pacific Rift is my personal favorite of the Motorstorm titles. Also, the inFamous series is glaringly missing from your lists. Sony needs to remaster all of these!
Really enjoyed both of your PS3 Stuck games video. I played a ton of PS2, although not some of the standouts evidentially, at that time. I loved my PS3 too. I have expanded my collection but have less time to play now so your curation helps. I worked at GameStop late in the PS3 lifecycle and always enjoyed hyping the latest and greatest games as they were being released. I cannot tell you how many times I said, "no that Last of Us demo features gameplay not cinematics!" I am looking forward to watching some of your stuck on Xbox videos too. I am a newbie to Xbox and am exploring Hidden Gems from the OG, the 360 and even modern stuff albeit on XB1 not a series yet... Thanks for your videos, Great Gaming!
Thank you very much! I absolutely plan on doing more like this for more consoles and if you haven't seen them yet I've done a few for Xbox and Xbox 360 over the last several months.
I absolutely love the Resistance games.. I played the first one co-op with my son.. I was so bummed that the second one didn’t have campaign co-op, but it was a great game too..
Man, really wish Insomniac would bring the Resistance franchise back. Either a reboot or sequel, but, you know, with a fresh coat of paint overall. I do miss those alien designs
Was on resistance 2 mutiplayer so much back in the day... wish more people got to experience the mutiplayer. From the 8 player Co-OP to the battlefield in competitive.. too much fun and so many friends made. I also enjoyed the 3rd one too mutiplayer and playing the campaign with my Cousin. I had a blast with these games and still have them till this day now if i could find a working contoller id be good
@RetroMediaRoom I've noticed with newer games there's not a lot going on in the background, unlike in the older games resistance and killzone had some amazing background scenes.
thanks. Solid work. The 2 PS3 exclusives in my collection, which i personally rate the highest are: *ICO* (crazy this never received a PS4/PS5 remaster) *Afrika* (obviously unique, cameras & jeeps, instead of guns)
I just barely got my hands on a PS3 Slim and a small collection of games from a Co-Worker, so your videos have been very helpful in deciding which games I need to get my hands on and play. Keep up the great content.
What Sony and the other companies who made these games should do is make Master Chief Collection style bundles of their older games with various quality of life improvements like bug fixes, modernized controls, restored online multiplayer, and other stuff like that for PS5/PC (I’ve been wanting to play Sony’s “Halo Killers” for a while now. Although, we all know the true Halo Killer was itself under 343. Fortunately, MCC is on Steam and mods will be able to keep those games alive). That way those games could be made accessible to more people, be preserved, and a great way to see if there’s enough demand for new entries. Thankfully, even if that doesn’t happen we can still emulate those games. From what I’ve heard a lot of the rough edges in Resistance 2/3 come from issues during development. For 2 Insomniac were mostly focused on a Ratchet and Clank game, and apparently 3 has a similar story. Definitely, explains why the final boss in 2 is pretty jank. I’ve also heard that the game was supposed to be longer/grander in scope, and they also originally wanted it to have the weapon wheel. For multiplayer/co-op that works, but the main campaign should’ve had the weapon wheel. 2/3 also should’ve had vehicle sections (a big chunk of what made Halo so popular is the way Bungie did a great job of having a mix of on foot and vehicle sections that were naturally woven together. Those did a great job of giving the illusion that battles were bigger than they were, and it varied up the gameplay). Also, there’s two books set in the Resistance world. One between FOM and 2, and the other is set between 2 and 3. Haven’t read either, still need to get around to playing through the series (I’ve watched some play throughs and interacted with the community so I know a decent amount about them, but still need the first hand experience). It’s really interesting how drastically different each of the games is. I’ve heard that part of the reason why it didn’t catch on the way other titles did is because the gameplay wasn’t consistent between titles, and since there wasn’t really a recognizable main protagonist for people to get attached to.
Wanting a MCC type of modern compilation is one of the reasons why I've been making these videos, because that would be a day one purchase! Yeah them having understandable struggles in development is why I mention but don't drag them for the flaws I ever notice, the games are awesome!
I don't think Motorstorm Apocalypse is much like other racing games. In fact it's completely unique. The only game that comes close is Split Second: Velocity and even that game plays completely different (it emphasizes more on drifting and using power-ups). If you prefer the original motorstorm, than I think you'll enjoy Motorstorm Pacific Rift a lot more. Pacific Rift is gameplay wise much like the first one (maybe a little more fast paced), only this time you're not racing in the desert, but on an island. It keeps the memorable music. They also added more maps, dangerous enviroments (especially lava), ramming (offensive manoeuvres) and monster trucks. Btw it's no where noob-friendly.
loved and completed the 1st motorstorm, liked but ragequitted the 2nd one (pacific storm's AI gets painfully difficult and cheaty in later chapters, guys on the internet half-jokingly say that it's more challenging than dark souls)
@@RetroMediaRoom yup, couldn't proceed further because I was a few golden medals short (around 85% of the previous runs were golden, had maybe 3 silver medals, 2 bronze ones and the game didn't unlock the later rank arenas, left me stuck on rank6 with no new races and no desire to replay the already crazy hard bronze attempts). Once I read that the uncharted rank 7 and rank 8 races are even harder I was like "thanks for the memories and the soundtrack, but hell naw" :D
@RetroMediaRoom Yes. The online multiplayer had a feel all it's own. Very gritty and atmospheric in a good way. The weapons also felt like they actually had weight to them and movement felt more realistic than most modern FPS.
@@RetroDudeX77 from memory there was one game mode called warzone, where it would cycle through different game modes every 3-5mins, so it would be capture the flag, then it would be VIP, or straight up TD, then the team would win a point at the change over. Made for some really interesting gameplay. The annoying feature was the melee animation, you'd go for an attack and it processes an animation which would then make you vulnerable to attacks, so you'd kill an enemies and then instantly die lol. Personally I prefered KZ2 campaign more and the visuals, the MP was good but it wasn't as fleshed out as 3, what it did have was massive arena maps which made for some good gameplay, but I think Resistance 2 probably did that better for MP.
also in killzone 3 they changed it so that if you fell down your partner could revive you in killzone 2 partner would just stand there and watch you bleed out
Yes I know, it's common to refer to trilogies even when they're technically a larger franchise, and it's appropriate within the context of this video because I'm talking about games stuck on PS3, not the entire franchise.
Multiplayer is merely secondary, what matters most to me are the campaigns which are great. I never expected the servers to be anything special because of their free online model which was always inferior to Xbox Live that whole generation.
@@RetroMediaRoom i know but they were just the worst and reminds. Avery terrible era where very bad games like gear of wars and resistance were just the face of 360 and ps3
I really hope we get Resistance and Killzone make a return with new installments.
Me too!
Me 3

I want to play co-op with somebody at some point, you definitely hit the jackpot with your girlfriend 👏
@@RetroMediaRoom yeah she played when the game was online she knew the game better than me

@@mac1bc Yeah many would probably agree

100% agree 👍
Or just remaster the 3 ps3 games

I played a bit of multiplayer with my cousin online and we definitely had some fun.
Resistance 3 is a beautiful game to look at and play.
It really is beautiful 😍
Resistance 2 is one of my favourite games of all time. It was one of the first games I got with my ps3 alongside killzone 2.
It's a fantastic game 😀
@RetroMediaRoom I've noticed with newer games there's not a lot going on in the background, unlike in the older games resistance and killzone had some amazing background scenes.
They used to do more with less back then.
thanks. Solid work. The 2 PS3 exclusives in my collection, which i personally rate the highest are:
*ICO* (crazy this never received a PS4/PS5 remaster)
*Afrika* (obviously unique, cameras & jeeps, instead of guns)
ICO is going to be in a future video, I've always loved the game!
The Resistance trilogy truly is a must have for the ps3 collection. Twisted metal is a great franchise as well
Oh absolutely, can't imagine not having a PS3 without Resistance.
Killzone isn't a trilogy there's a fourth game on the ps4.
@@Loophole23742 He's specifically talking about this Killzone collection on PS3, Shadow Fall on PS4 is a different matter.
This reminded me that Killzone 3 was a major improvement from part 2.
It really was a return to form.
Resistance was so good
They're terrific! 😀

Pacific Rift is one of the greatest racing games ever.
My copy JUST came in so now I have the trilogy 😋
Been thinking about buying a PS3, I guess I have more of reason to get one now.
It's so nice to have, especially for PS1 games, it's the best you can buy for that.
KILLZONE 2 had the best campaign but Killzone 3 had the best multiplayer.
I bet Killzone 3 was fun online, I never really got into that.
@RetroMediaRoom Yes. The online multiplayer had a feel all it's own. Very gritty and atmospheric in a good way. The weapons also felt like they actually had weight to them and movement felt more realistic than most modern FPS.

In a world of remasters and remakes, it’s insane Sony hasn’t tried it with these games!
It's baffling!
Resistance 3 is very nearly a perfect game... It just needs a stable framerate...
Yep and the sound delays which are easily fixable.
Wish they would remake it, that campaign was epic.
also in killzone 3 they changed it so that if you fell down your partner could revive you in killzone 2 partner would just stand there and watch you bleed out
Yeah I forgot to mention that during recording, it's helpful when things get crazy.
Motor Storm Pacific Rift is more like the first game but much better
I've finally played it for a part 3 video and I totally agree, it's very good!
Next week KILLZONE turns 20 years old where is our REMASTER of the trilogy?
We want them and they know it.
A bunch of these are on PS+ to play on PS4 etc
Those are all streaming games not native, which exists, but is not a good answer to playing these games.
@@RetroMediaRoom Yeah, one lag can ruin a game on hard mode
