Singularity is a video game developed by Raven Software to be published by Activision and released for Microsoft Windows, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3. The game takes place on a mysterious island known as "Katorga-12" where Russian experiments involving "E99" took place during the height of the Cold War era. Sometime during 1950, a terrible catastrophe known as the "Singularity" occurred on the island, causing the island's very existence to be covered up by the Russian government. The player controls Nate Renko, a Black Ops soldier who is sent to investigate bizarre radiation emissions coming from the island, only to crash land there. After regaining consciousness, Nate finds the TMD (Time Manipulation Device) and discovers that the island is constantly shifting between the time periods of 1950 and 2010. He also encounters Victor Barisov, the scientist in charge of the Katorga-12 experiments who reveals that a man named Nikolai Demichev is on the island to try to restart them on a much larger scale, which could cause an unthinkable disaster. During the quest to stop Demichev, the player will have to deal with hostile Russian forces in both time periods, and the hideously mutated flora, fauna and former residents of the island, some of which have developed time manipulation powers of their own.

I have had mixed experiences with the Resistance series. Like a lot of people in the UK, I picked up the first entry as part of a bundle designed to push the PlayStation 3 while it struggled to gain traction. I had a lot of fun with the game; it was a decent first person shooter with a reasonable hook. Unfortunately, the second game was an infuriating trial, one that seemed to lean far too heavily on the Ratchet & Clank series’ gameplay design without any of the fun. With that experience under my belt, I entered into Resistance 3 hesitantly.

Don't resist the urge to experience the best game in the Resistance series to date.

Tightly balanced action and a superb array of guns make Resistance 3 a blast.

While Resistance 3 clearly steps forward as a improvement to the series, it's still not quite a great game overall.

Insomniac does a terrific job of making you forget about Resistance 2 with a sad, beautiful journey through the apocalypse.

An intense shooter experience that proves hard to resist.

Singularity creates an interesting world and uses its time-bending abilities to craft a fun story that's worth seeing through to the end.

A fine shooter that experiments with time manipulation more aptly than any game since Braid.

If I could turn back time, if I could find a way.

This entertaining and varied sci-fi shooter doesn't break new ground; it's just a bunch of goofy, gory fun.
