Release Date: September 6, 2011
System Reviewed: PS3
What's Great: So much better than Resistance 2. The weapon wheel is back, in Insomniac fashion. Much to Ratchet & Clank fans out there, weapons are now upgraded based on how often you use them.
What's (Not So) Great: Still doesn't come close to what Resistance: Fall of Man did, and that was blow the pants off of people. I'm going to make an obscure music reference here, but Resistance is very similar to the band Finch: they blew up with their first (phenomenal) record, and each successive release was compared to the first, which never came close.
Bottom Line: It's still a great game to play. I didn't play using the Move controllers, even though I bought the Mayhem Edition (think of the R3 Doomsday Edition, but with Killzone 3 thrown in the bundle during Black Friday) for just $60. Don't pass on it because R2 sucked dick; it's a great game.
Grade: B-
