		<description>Thanks for all your assumptions about me.  Unfortunately, you were wrong about all of them. 
 
I wouldn&#039;t have bought the game if I didn&#039;t think I would like it - I would have rented it.  I was totally stoked on playing this epic campaign, then jumping into some huge multiplayer games, but it just didn&#039;t pan out as I had hoped.  I ended up playing through about half of the campaign when I finally decided to just throw in the towel.  I simply don&#039;t find it to be a great game on any level. 
 
Some of the weapons are cool and unique.  But all of them lack punch and don&#039;t give you any sense of gratification after blowing dudes apart.  They&#039;re not satisfying at all.  The lame death animations don&#039;t help either.  When you shoot a dude that&#039;s charging at you, it&#039;s like every ounce of being is sucked from his body instantly and his weightless body just falls gently to the ground. </description>

		<description>YOU HIT THE NAIL RIGHT ON THE HEAD! 
 
This is exactly what I thought while playing RFOM2! I just wanted to finish it as to say that I played through it and make any point of contention I had about the game a valid one. 
 
But I simply wasn&#039;t thrilled! Not one bit! 
 
After finishing the game I started playing FAR CRY 2 and had a lot of fun even though the game tends to lack in variety in the way the missions are setup.  
 
In the end there&#039;s no denying the scope and production value that Insomniac had put into the game but if only there creed would have been anything other than scope and actionpacked RFOM2 might have been a true contender as a FPS! </description>

		<description>The game&#039;s good. At first I just thought the same as you,  I didn&#039;t like the alien weapons nor the linear levels because they made the game feels too arcadish and blah blah blah but keep playing it. It gets really good when you fight the bosses and use the other awesome weapons. 
 
For what do you need cover when you have weapons that create shields around you? Why do you need to aim when you have the tags from the alien weapons?  
 
I don&#039;t know but i really liked to kill aliens in this game. I&#039;m even playing it for a second time on a higher difficulty.  And the end was epic! 
 
The co-op is super fun man and the competitive is even better then the first one. Graphics are better too. 
 
Anyway if you&#039;re an Xbox fanboy obviously you played the game with your mind fixed that you&#039;ll not gonna like it and that one of the problems. I just read a line where you just talked about your broken X360 like if it was nothing  and that kinda gives the impression that you&#039;re a fanboy. Like saying &quot;My xbox is broken but still better than anything else&quot;. 
 
Personally GeoW2 is more of the same &quot;but yeah is better than Resistance 2&quot; and if you liked the first one you&#039;re gonna like this one too but nothing that would make people that didn&#039;t like the first into believers. Too much hype thanks to the huge marketing power of MS. Just like the 5 millions Halo3 sold in one day. 
 
End, i&#039;m bored and i don&#039;t want to continue using my poor knowledge of English, </description>

		<description>Your review here reflects my feelings of the game better than most of the major sites that gave it 9&#039;s.  
 
Resistance 2 is a really solid game, but it feels predictable, clinical and a little soulless. It just doesn&#039;t provide the compelling experience that you expect from premiere shooters like CoD4 or Gears. </description>

		<description>IGN gave it a 9.5, I knew it didn&#039;t look all that, think I&#039;ll give this one a miss! </description>

		<description>I watched that review last night before I played the game and it got me all stoked to play it.  I was ready to quit after about half an hour in. 
 
I&#039;m still looking forward to checking out co-op, though. </description>

		<description>Fallout 3 is a catch-up game for me.  I&#039;ll get to it when I&#039;ve played everything else that&#039;s on my &quot;must buy&quot; list.  Probably not for a couple months at least, if at all. </description>

		<description>any word on fallout 3, seeing as there is nothing good to say about resistance?  
 
i&#039;ve gone from a 360, to a ps3, (only due to reliability) and i&#039;ve only been playing cod because nothing excites me.... </description>
