Resistance 2 is a game all about numbers. In this quirky but enjoyable PlayStation 3 shooter, you'll take on a 300 foot-tall Leviathan in the single-player campaign, blast countless hordes in the eight-player cooperative mode, and shoot it out with 60 players in online competitive matches. These three modes -- campaign, cooperative, and competitive -- embody the entirety of the Resistance 2 experience, and to see the big picture you'll have to play them all.
THE BOTTOM LINE: Bigger, badder and better than the first, Resistance 2 improves upon the formula set by its predecessor in almost every way. Unfortunately, a handful of minor issues, such as less than stellar graphics, keep this game from reaching the high bar set by competing titles like Call of Duty 4 and Gears of War 2. Still, with its interesting single-player campaign and robust online component, Resistance 2 has plenty to offer any PS3 owner looking for a quick and easy shooter fix. Sports Legends gave Resistance 2 for the PS3 a B+.

I thought Resistance 2 was the best looking game in the universe...Overrated.
The graphics are not mind blowing but they Chimera look amazing. Especially the big bosses (and there are a lot of them)
Still, this game is anything but overrated. The fact that some people only care about graphics is sad.
Stuff reviewers
Buy it, play it and rate it yourselves. It's the only way to make your OWN mind up. Never let anyone else decide for you, i've played some real hidden gems in my time and i've also played some terrible games but i always decide for myself.
Reviewers could be having a bad day.
Is not that some people only care about graphics.When i played killzone2 beta and played resistance 2 it was like playing a last gen game.The propblem is there are so many shoot em up coming out with mind blowing graphics so when u play another FPS game that is not as good looking as the rest u start to think the graphics are crap.And killzone 2 has both graphics and gameplay!!!!
Finally a scrore that Resistance 2 deserves, good review.
