P3Zine Community Section for PlayStation 3
Myresistance.net
Every console launch has at least one must buy game, and for the PS3, it was Resistance: Fall of Man. Holding the top spot in the charts across Europe for several weeks following the launch, Resistance has got a massive community following, and this has lead to its online mode being one of the most populated of all the launch titles. With a whole host of modes on offer, from simple deathmatches, to the unique conversion modes, as well as full support for clans, it’s little wonder that Resistance’s online mode has proved so popular.
And now, it’s about to get even better. A patch scheduled for release mid-May will provide support for global servers, allowing anyone, from any country to play against each other. Up until now, that wasn’t possible, with online games restricted to only include players from the region you bought your game in. Along with the globalisation of the servers, Insomniac’s cool community website, Myresistance.net will finally become accessible by UK gamers.
Myresistance.net is a brilliant website that lets you keep up-to-date with the Resistance community when you’re not near your PS3. Containing leaderboards for the top 500 players across six categories, ranging from most kills, to team stats, as well as letting you view full statistics for any player that appears on the boards, it’s a pretty comprehensive tool, and one that’s incredibly easy to use. By simply linking your PSN tag to Myresistance.net’s servers, you can start tracking your own stats online, and see how you measure up against the world’s best. While the site is still very much a work in progress, the forums are one of the most active we’ve ever come across, and are a great place to chat about all things PS3. In the meantime, check out our cool Q&A with the Resistance team to find out exactly what they have planned for the future...
