The Official Resistance: Retribution Discussion Thread

A new chapter in the epic PlayStation 3 franchise, Resistance: Retribution takes on a third-person perspective in the ongoing fight with the Chimera. Set in the weeks after Resistance: Fall of Man, Resistance: Retribution follows the story of former British Marine James Grayson. After a personal tragedy -- he is forced to kill his own brother inside a Chimeran conversion center – Grayson goes on a vendetta to destroy every conversion center he can find. Eventually Grayson learns that his efforts have been futile ... in Western Europe the Chimera have evolved a new method of converting humans to aliens. The European resistance -- the Maquis -- enlist Grayson's help, and he joins Cartwright and Parker in Operation Overstrike. The war to retake the European continent has begun.

looks great. I'm glad I made the decision to buy a PSP recently they seem to have a bunch of games coming and a bunch already out.Minishdriveby

Me too. Thats why i bought my PSP today which was the day of the Sony E3 Conference. Anyways, i am SO hyped for this game! I never got to play the original Resistance: Fall Of Man for the Playstation 3 but im sure playing this. Even looking at that Screenshot gets you hooked into it. This game could really turn out great.

I wonder if this is going to be a prequal or sequal to the original game because i dont know anything about the story so i might be a little confused in the game. Hope that doesn't happen. Overall, I can't wait for this game to come out

EDIT: Oops, forgot that it says " Shortly after weeks of Resistance: Fall Of Man." So it is sort of a Sequal.
