July 15 Terminator: Resistance (2019) Video Game Review
Terminator: Resistance (2019) synopsis: “Terminator: Resistance is a 2019 first-person shooter game developed by Teyon and published by Reef Entertainment. The game is based on the Terminator franchise, set during the original future war depicted in the films The Terminator (1984) and Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991).”
Available on: PC, PlayStation, and XBox.
On this bonus episode, Corey reviews Terminator: Resistance! If you grew up loving the future scenes in Terminator 1 & 2 then this video game is for you! Everything from the weapons to the costume designs are straight from those segments. The only thing the developers use from T3+ are the various Terminator designs, like the T-600 from Salvation. Like with the RoboCop game Corey reviewed two years ago (from the same developers), if you're a fan of the Terminator franchise then this is a must-play game!
Leave a comment on Spotify or Instagram and let us know if you’ve played Terminator: Resistance and what you thought of it!
