    If you were an early adopter of the PS3, chances are that you played Resistance: Fall of Man. The story line for Resistance 2 picks up where the first game left off: Nathan Hale heads home from Europe to fight the aliens in 1950s America. The story might be similar, but game play and graphics have improved tenfold over those of the original, and the multiplayer modes are great for many hours of entertainment. R2 introduces an 8-player co-op mode and also supports up to 60 players online (up from 40).
