Description

Terminator: Resistance for PC announces the return of the Terminator (he told us that he would be back!). This game is a single player, first person shooter game, and it is set some thirty one years after judgement day, introducing all new characters. Human ones, anyway.

About the Game


The first thing to know about this game is that despite the almost simultaneous release of the latest film in the Terminator franchise the two are not related at all, even though they both occur around thirty years after the events of Judgement Day.

The new film brings back Arnie, Linda Hamilton and Ed Furlong as the Terminator, the gutsy protagonist and her son, respectively, as they battle one of the liquid Terminators for the survival of a young woman and her human-cyborg hybrid friend. It can be said to be a true sequel to Terminator 2: Judgement Day, while the other films in the series are said to be alternate timeline versions of events.

This game, on the other hand, while set at around the same time as the new film, seems to have been written as an alternative narrative to the above: set at around the same time as the new film, but with massive differences in the plot and story arcs. It uses the first two films as back story, and builds from there – much as the story-writers for the new movie must have done!

What’s the Story?


You take the avatar of a soldier, Jake Rivers, a private in the Resistance Pacific Division, whose day is suddenly worsened when for some reason Skynet suddenly marks him down for execution. He is rescued by a gutsy band of heroes and is impelled to make his stand alongside them as the futuristic events of the movies begin to play out.

The cut scenes lead you snappily through the opening moments and any inter-mission events, providing something of a tutorial along the way as you learn why you are battling and what is at stake (your life, is the short answer!), as well as who your friends are.

There are several ways to play. You can follow story arcs, acting out scenes (and influencing them with your actions as you go along) to resolve quests, or you can play short side quests to help your new friends get hold of equipment, achieve missions and recue compatriots.

Each of your new companions is richly detailed with back stories and personalities that are unique to them. This makes game play particularly compelling especially when you are helping them out with their personal quests, because it gives their characters a richness and depth that players will feel drawn to, almost as though they are helping out a real life buddy.

Features and Hints


  • You will be battling, amongst other enemies, T-800s, the original villainous terminator turned helped for the second film, but they are comfortingly stripped of their human appearances, seeming to be red-eyed metal skeletons in this incarnation. Which, if nothing else, makes them easy to spot and bad guys and it makes blowing them to smithereens even more fun!

  • You will enjoy a powerful range of plasma weaponry that can blast enemies away in a most satisfying fashion

  • The world is cruel and poorly supplied in this time: you will need to constantly scavenge for supplies, gathering resources, weapons and more in order to aid your survival against the machine

  • Terminator: Resistance for PC is available for purchase on Instant Gaming for a fraction of its retail price. You will receive an official key and be able to play the game in seconds. Play smart. Pay less.

    As a lifelong Terminator fan i was hoping a game would come along that would be as much fun as watching one of the movies. This game is it. Is the game perfect? No, but it does give you the look, sounds and feel of a Terminator movie. Your first encounter of the t-800's is really cool. Just don't let one of them see you or else you won't be back.

    So far i have put enough hours into the game to know that i want to and will finish it. I'm liking the story and the quests. Playing the free dlc as the Terminator is a fun experience. My best advice to you is to lose yourself in the game and try not to compare it to Call of duty or others like it. This isn't those games, this is a Terminator game and it's the best Terminator game since Robocop vs the Terminator. Enjoy.
    • Amazing look and feel puts you in a Terminator movie
    • The sound is spot on
    • I liked the characters a lot
    • On highest difficulty the game is thrilling
    • Some A.I. is silly
    • Graphics aren't state of the art
    Un juego de estilo clasico pero con algunas mecánicas actuales incrementadas.
    No es un triple A pero lo compensa con un gran cariño a la saga( una BSO y efectos FX s casi calcados del original además de un mundo postapocaliptico ambientado en los 90) no os dejéis engañar por las notas de por revistas y prensa "especializada". Si eres un jugador de la vieja escuela lo vas a disfrutar pero si encina también eres fan de Terminator te va a encantar.
    • La BSO y efectos FX
    • Juego de la vieja escuela
    • Para un solo jugador
    • La dificultad (los T 800 son imparables)
    • Los gráficos podrían ser mejores
    Terminator makes really a lot of fun. It's a small budget game but you feel the love of the developers for this game. Game play is good, characters have more deep then thought and it's the really the Terminator future scenery what we saw in the first 2 films. Graphics are not the best but ok. If you like Terminator you probably will like the game
