Hope they get more of a budget, Resistance felt very much like an AA game, like it needed a bit more content but they did all they could with what they had, also, what's next?
Lethal Weapon or a Jackie Chan game?

A good Predator game would be nice.

Nah, they should capitalize on the fact that Bill Cosby is out of jail now and make an adaptation of Leonard Part 6. They could probably hire him for $20 and a lunch.

Commando!
I'm not sure how "good" Resistance was. I'd say it was a passable time-waster if nothing else.
Resistance was the best entry into the Terminator franchise since the second movie. It may not do anything revolutionary in terms of gameplay, but it's well executed, solid fun to play with a not terrible story (plus titties). It also gave us the future war we always wanted to see instead of the hot garbage in all the movies after Judgement Day. It has great music and is very faithful to the original two movies. It is worth playing more than once and there is actual choice and consequence in the game with multiple endings. I put 60 hours into it and it has a "Very Positive" on Steam. I am looking forward to seeing what they do with Robocop.
And it's developed by a non SJW eastern euro dev team who puts out high quality free DLC. Incline.

We need a Big Trouble In Big China, this time with two Raiden looking characters, but seriously, that would be an awesome idea, i guess Mad Max would be awesome too, never played the last game, but i think these guys wouldn't do a game with Batman Arkham combat.

Resistance did something I wanted since the '90s and that was a Terminator game where you play through it with Terminator vision on.
Somewhat hopeful about this game. Please let ED-209 be an alternate game mode or some shit.

I've think we've found Terminator fanboy #1.
Hardly. If I was a Terminator fanboy why would I be calling the last 4 movies (5 movies? not worth keeping count) utter garbage? That kind of goes against the definition of fanboy. I like good sci fi action movies and the first two movies were exactly that. Resistance was a solid game that did the movies justice. The dev team have earned a lot of good will by putting out additional high quality free content. That's all there is to it, really.
Use your brain.
And they did that part for free. They were under no obligation to, there was no pre-sale promise of extra content or anything like that. It appears they did it because - get this- they actually appreciate the subject matter.

If you look at it objectively, it's an average game at best. It's fun if you're in the mood for that setting, but the production values are AA, and it doesn't stand out in any way other than the fact that it uses the Terminator IP.
Glad we agree then. Looking forward to see what they do with the Robocop game.

I'm curious as to how this will go. There aren't any good open-world games where you play as cops, especially not in a cyberpunk setting. Assuming they don't go in a different direction and ignore the cop part of things, it could be good just for that alone.
For the record, I know there are open world games where you play as the police, but they're either bad or they're ignoring the cop part so much its pointless.

Apparently they get more people wishlisting it if it pops up early, and everyone does it. At least, that's how it was explained to me.

BITCHES LEAVE.
I wonder if they will be loyal to the first movie and depict "Old Detroit" with the city/skyline of Dallas, TX.

Wish we had an update on the new DLC.
Someone still wants to give me something and as he already gifted me Terminator Resistance in the past, any new story DLC would be a good follow up.
In other news Teyon is working on a Robocop game; Robocop Rogue City.
After the release of Terminator Resistance some other people and I started to discuss which other 80s movie IP we would like Teyon to give a try. Robocop was one of the first suggestions (along with an Aliens game, Predator, and the Thing)
If the studio continues to improve in quality like they have been doing with T:R, than Robocop might at least turn out to be a decent movie tie in AA FPS game.
It is not a problem if it doesn't look fancy, as long as it plays well and really recaptures the feel of the first movie.

Being in the mood for the Terminator setting is pretty much the entire point of playing a Terminator game though, especially Resistance which isn't just some paint job over a generic FPS but actually every piece of it is all about Terminator - they took a few seconds from a couple of movies and made an entire world while everywhere you'd look it'd hook to the first two films.
Of course if the game sucked its setting wouldn't matter (see Rambo from the same devs :-P), but that is far from the case.
FWIW i'd be way more concerned about the game if it had AAA+ production values. Lately all the good and memorable games i play tend to be AA at best with the AAA stuff being more on the lukewarm/ok side. And TBH i think a few issues with facial hair rendering aside, Terminator: Resistance looked fine. Having said that i wouldn't pay 60 euros for it, but around 30 euros or so is fine for me.
