Default Stargate Resistance now available

Stargate Resistance was just released. This was the collective work from the Stargate MMO Cheyenne Mountain was putting together. Falling short on funding, they elected to release a 3rd person shooter to help raise funds for the MMO while using many of the assets they already had in play.

Now available on Steam for $19.99.

The whole MMO to 3rd person shooter change just hasn't inspired my confidence. Waiting on a demo or some reviews before my interest becomes peaked.

While I was interested in checking out a Stargate MMO, and although this is to help raise funds for development I'm a bit cynical that even with widespread purchase of this game that the MMO will come to fruition. Consequently it'll have to stand on it's own to get my $$.

I know how you feel Thermal. I was eager to try the mmo but I've been just checking gameplay footage off youtube and uncertain. Still, the price is pretty decent.

The gameplay looks...well, boring. The third person perspective puts me off in this one based on the graphics, but maybe I'm just used to seeing the eyecandy of Mass Effect 2.

I would probably have preferred to just give them the money up front, in return for alpha/beta access and a copy of the game when it launches.

Yeah I downloaded a rather large trailer and I was less than impressed. Pity, I do love me some Stargate.

Most of the forum reviews indicate that this is a stinking turd of a cash grab. Serves someone right for screwing over Perception with their rather ace looking Stargate Alliance.

Things go from bad to worse:

You'd have to wonder how long they're likely to hold onto the licence given they're in such a rocky situation.

Yeah, hope they manage to pull some miracle. They've been hit pretty hard over the last year or two.
