Having played only a few levels in Resistance some time ago, I can agree with this. I found it to be dull, with uninteresting enemy AI and bland level design. Sorry you are having to experience it.

I don't agree with Resistance being a bore, but I do think that each version is better than the last, so I would definitely try 2 or 3 if you're not liking the first.

Count me in for not being a fan of Resistance at all myself. The most fun I had with it was when my friend and I just decided to start meleeing everything, it looked awful and gave us a few laughs. The AI was definitely terribad.

Not like I'm anti-Sony FPS's or anything, but I really can't get behind Killzone either. Played most of 1 and tried out 2-3, just bleh.

Singularity is top notch for sure though, excellent game. Felt a bit like Half-Life 2 meets FEAR.

I can understand not getting excited about Resistance, but Killzone 2 is pretty much console FPS at its finest. Destroys Halo and the like. I never played the third one, but Killzone 2 has the best FPS AI that I've ever experienced. Mind blowing visuals and audio design as well. The multiplayer was rather fun and addicting too.

Generally I don't really care about FPS, but Killzone 2 was insanely impressive.

I would agree that Spearhead is better (Page 87 or something) I thought the italian setting was pretty interesting, though. That's not an area covered in most WW2 games.

I fired up Homefront .... and then I uninstalled it.

Resistance has aged about as well as your average store-bought bread. That said, what I played of 2 was much better. I haven't played 3, but I've heard a lot of people say that it was the definitive PS3 shooter as far as single player. I've also heard lots of comparisons to Half Life 2 in regards to R3.

I'll probably buy Bioshock Infinite in a few weeks. I want to finish Lego City first.

I am 9 hours into Bioshock Infinite and really loving it, it is like an extreme re-imaging of the first Bioshock, rather than a true sequel. I do prefer Rapture to Columbia, but man, it is a great game.

Medal of Honor European Assault (Gamecube) is completed! All medals earned! That very last mission I'll admit was one of the toughest I've ever encountered in an FPS. I think this game had quite a few bugs and mis-steps too, but it was a very different engine, style, and presentation than the other games in the series were.

That completes the "trilogy" on this console. I still have to get through MOH Pacific Assault and to try MOH Airborne on the PC.

As for future single player FPS? Half-Life for April's Together Retro, and I'll be starting Rainbow Six Lockdown on the Gamecube soon.
