Resistance: Retribution Isn't a Shooter, Fortunately

Kotaku: Resistance: Retribution pleasantly surprised me at Tokyo Game Show when I finally had a chance to go hands on with the game.

It may look like a shooter at first glance, but really Retribution plays more like a third-person action title, which is a good idea. The problem with creating a straight-up shooter for the Playstation Portable is that the controls just aren't right for that genre so whatever a developer does is going to feel like a making the best of a bad situation.

We're already aware it'll be along the lines of Syphon Filter, no matter how Sony wants to put it. This is certainly by no means a bad thing though, because those games are ahead of there time on the average scale of a hand held game. Similar to Half Life and the first person shooter genre.

2 - can't wait for this game
but he's right! FPS or shooters don't feel right on PSP but if they can do something like shooting in ratchet and clank, that would be awesome!
