Goliath



The Goliaths are massive siege batteries employed by the Chimera who use these machines to subjugate entire cities.

To accomplish this, the Goliath makes use of mortar batteries that soften enemy opposition. Entire companies are broken under the mortar barrages of the Goliath causing Human military units to simply flee for their lives. However, this does not save them from the Goliath's secondary weapon which is the deadly Spire missiles. These warheads allow the Chimera to deploy Crawlers in enemy positions, potentially infecting thousands of Humans.

Towards the end of Resistance: Fall of man, The player engages a Goliath from a Stalker in a desperate attempt to prevent it from attacking the American and British forces with its deadly Spire missiles and thwarting the operation of entering the main Chimeran tower.

In the February 2008 release of Gameinformer Magazine It was revealed that each Goliath is approximately 150-feet tall and will be making a comeback in Resistance 2.

Resistance 2
A Goliath attacks the SPRA base Igloo in the first level of Resistance 2. This Goliath is seen continuously throughout the level. In order to destroy the Goliath, you must target and destroy all four of its rear exhaust ports on its back throughout the level-meaning that the Goliath will take the entire first level in order to destroy. Once you destroy one exhaust port, the Goliath usually turns directly toward the player and attacks, so as soon as you land a hit, quickly follow Major Blake to a safer position.
