    Resistance Retribution takes place between the first and second Resistance games on PS3 and acts as a side story. This time round you are not playing Mr Nathan Hale, the protagonist you have come to know, but instead play as the slightly nutty James Grayson. You start the game as you are being pulled from death row. Read more

    There's no sense in beating around the bush -- Resistance: Retribution is excellent. It's got a main character you'll connect with, an engaging single-player campaign, a crapload of unlockables, PS3 connectivity and the strongest online multiplayer I have ever seen in a PSP game. In short, you're an idiot if you don't buy this game. Read more

    Closing Comments So, yeah -- I like Resistance: Retribution. A lot. I think it's probably one of the most complete packages ever to come to the PSP. It has an engaging storyline, a likeable main character, tons of reasons to play it again, and one of the greatest multiplayer outings we've ever seen on this system. Read more

    It is a well produced title with a lot of gaming to offer. Retribution has all the bland level and creature designs that the franchise is known for, but it doesn't have any of the fun. Read more

    These shortcomings aside, Resistance: Retribution is a competently implemented third-person shooter that brings short, sharp bouts of sci-fi action to the PSP. A fair to average release, but it could have delivered a lot more; let’s hope Sony Bend fares better when they bring Syphon Filter to the PS3. Read more

    • Crumby dialogue, unskippable cut-scenes, Awkward save system, Requires Resistance 2 to unlock full game, Overall lack of polish
