The first Resistance game was actually better. I'm not sure why, but this game feels like it only has three quarters of what the first game had. Don't get me wrong, it's still an awesome game, but the first Resistance was way ahead of it's time and quite possibly still could be. Overall, R2 is still worth the price.

This game is great. I played the first Resistance, and absolutely loved it. I just recently got this, and after playing through a couple levels, I can honestly say it's one of the best shooters I've ever played. Great graphics, amazing gameplay, and the story seems to be pretty good so far as well. Also arrived in great condition, I couldn't even tell it had been used before me. So overall, a must buy game for anyone who's a fan of shooters and owns a PS3.

Fantastic game with ~8h of game play in the campaign mode. Very enjoyable, although I haven't tried multiplayer yet.

I really loved the first Resistance game. Prior to its release I was really excited for this title. A sequel to one of the best games of the generation should be awesome, but it was not. The story really took a hit in this sequel. The great voice overs by Miss Parker were surprisingly missing. In fact no one except Hale makes an appearance in both games. It's almost like Insomniac took all the good from the first game and threw it away for Resistance 2. The story is only a set up for more action it is not a companion as in the first one. The overall look of the game is different as well. The first was drab and dreary; the second one is bright and cheery. The graphics are a step up from the first one. That is about the only improvement. The game play has changed for the worse and the story as well.
Presentation- The look of this game has a lot of orange in it which takes away from the dread of the franchise which is a huge mistake. The music is about the same as the first. There aren't as many cut scenes which hurt the overall story and feel of the game. The graphics are an advancement however over the first. 4/5
Graphics- The graphics do look pretty good compared to Resistance: Fall of Man. The environments are pretty lush and natural looking. The facial models look ok Hale looks great the others don't look as good. 4.5/5
Game Play- The game play has changed a lot from Resistance 1. You can no longer hold all the weapons in the game. You are confined to two at a time. The game is also very difficult. Even in the casual setting it is challenging. They have added a lot of alien hybrids as well. This can be frustrating because it makes them feel unrealistic. These are supposed to be alien human hybrids then how can they be the size of a sky scraper. Also there are a lot of spawn problems. You really have to be careful where you walk the enemies can spawn at any time. They can also kill you randomly with one shot, which gets really annoying. The edition of rumble does help you feel like you're actually shooting the Chimera. 4/5
Story- As I stated above the story took a big hit in this title. There are no interesting voice overs and the few # of cut scenes in general does not help. In fact you could take the title off of the front of the case and you might not be able to tell it's a Resistance game. The ending does have some interesting elements, but the story as a whole is disappointing. 3.5/5
Lasting Appeal- The game in my opinion only has lasting appeal if you want to follow beating the first one with beating this game. There is very little to come back for. There is a big multiplayer element, but I am not a fan of online. They completely scrapped the co op split screen, which was a great part of the first one. It did however have a great ending that some how saved the game from being completely a waste of time. 4/5
The Verdict: I recommend this game for people who have never played the original. If you love the original skip this title, and read a plot summary before Resistance 3 comes out. I hope they can make a better game to save this franchise and make a great trilogy. Overall this game is action packed with lots of enemies, but the lack of story and changes in game play elements hurts this title. Overall 4/5

This game is total trash,maybe if i didn't play the original i might have had a better experience.I don't know what the hell was going on in this game,i was so annoyed and uninspired.I love FPS's except for this one which felt more like a platformer at times.Everything is so different from the original,there's no substance,no style,no order or vision.I'm going to burn my copy now then play Uncharted 2 online till Modern Warfare 2 comes out,peace!
