Resistance 2 (PS3) Review

**MIG-31** · Oct 31, 2008, 08:11 PM

One might glibly summarize PlayStation 3 launch title Resistance: Fall of Man as the "alternate WWII, but against aliens!" first-person shooter where the Chimera extraterrestrials stood in for the Nazis. Resistance 2, then, is the "gosh, them aliens sure are big!" FPS. While it's obvious that Resistance 2 draws from a large pool of influences -- both movies and games -- the overriding homage is definitely the visual impact of scenes from Godzilla, Cloverfield, Clash of the Titans, and War of the Worlds. Simply put, Resistance 2 will go down in history as the shooter where most bosses are at least 20 -- if not over 300 -- times bigger than you are.
