Description
"Resistance: Burning Skies" is a first-person shooter video game developed by Nihilistic Software and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. It was released exclusively for the PlayStation Vita handheld gaming console in 2012.
The game is part of the "Resistance" series, which was originally developed by Insomniac Games for the PlayStation 3. "Burning Skies" serves as a spin-off and takes place within the same universe as the main series, set during the alternate history World War II where humanity is battling against a race of alien creatures known as the Chimera.
In "Resistance: Burning Skies," players take on the role of Tom Riley, a firefighter who becomes a reluctant hero when the Chimera invade New York City. The game utilizes the PS Vita's dual analog sticks for traditional FPS controls, making it one of the few first-person shooters available for the handheld console.
As players progress through the game, they encounter various Chimera enemies and can wield a variety of weapons, both human and alien, to combat the threat. Additionally, "Burning Skies" introduces a touch-based control system that allows players to perform actions like melee attacks and weapon modifications using the Vita's touch screen.
While "Resistance: Burning Skies" was praised for its attempt to bring a first-person shooter experience to the PlayStation Vita, it received mixed reviews overall. Critics appreciated the effort to deliver a console-like FPS experience on a handheld device, but some aspects of the game, such as the story and level design, were criticized for being uninspired and lacking the polish of its console counterparts.
Despite the mixed reviews, "Resistance: Burning Skies" remains a notable title in the PlayStation Vita's library, especially for fans of the "Resistance" series or those seeking a FPS experience on the handheld platform.
