German ad brings Resistance: Fall of Mandy to Wii

by Andrew Yoon { Jan 19th 2008 at 8:30PM }

Sega's German division wants you to think that playing Ghost Squad on Wii will be like the PS3 award-winning shooter, Resistance: Fall of Man. With Wii Zapper in hand, you'll take down hordes of criminals and terrorists in this rail shooter. Sure, it's not a FPS, nor is it about a sci-fi flavored WWII, nor does it even have aliens. But trust Sega. It's just as good as Resistance. They swear.

I'm sure it is.

They wish it was as good as RFOM.

ka-ge @ Jan 21st 2008 11:41AM

Yeah. Although R:FOM isn't spectacular.

Thoas @ Jan 21st 2008 12:21PM

For a launch title it is. Lets just say that RFOM 2 will make alot of FPS look last gen.

The sequel will be even better - Resistance: rise of Mandy. Featuring a separate co-op campaign with Sally as well.

Yep, eight-player separate story!

Anyone stupid enough to put a railshooter in the same category as a 5 star first person shooter, and then call it better, better be ready to deliver. Cause if I find out this railshooter turns out to be some really crappy, underplayed, true-to-nothing arcade quater-sucking-machine adapted for homeplay then I'll be unimpressed. Rail-shooting is just so behind the fucking times. OMG LOOK A SLOW MOVING MISSILE! SHOOT IT DOWN WITH YOUR HAND GUN! (the missile explodes in a subtle flash of spectacular firecracker sized fireworks).

Slow news day?

SKI @ Jan 20th 2008 10:09AM

Must be, why should we care about this?
1)It's old
2)It's a game for the Wii
3)It's in German

is it a Day Rape simulation game?

I was just going to post it looks like he had given her a Date Rape Drug, but I think you beat me to it.

Those crazy Germans, even their Wii adverts are XXX rated.

Man, I love reading ps3 fanboy's articles. The bloggers sound so god damn cynical all the time. Take a joke?

Rolando @ Jan 20th 2008 1:38AM

""It's just as good as Resistance. They swear"" hahahahahaha ok well.......... hahahahah............ SEGA must be kidding

Perverted @ Jan 20th 2008 9:25AM

As good as RFOM? It's better! no joke! but then i love arcade shooters.....*Puts up flame resistant shield*

It's a decent rail-shooter game, but as good as RFoM: fat chance. There are no fun weapons, as a start. Unless you count shooting peas and smashing bananas into enemies' skulls as fun... Thinking a bit more.... none of the R1 fun is present here, by a mile. It's like comparing Resident Evil 4 on GC/PS2 with a Teletubbies-filled sidescroller on GBA. *rolleyes*
Anyway, being a third-party Wii game, it's nice to see it's not the umpteenth pile of vomit. Oh wait, I don't care about the Wii, so it's not "nice" but "whatever".
