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 a
