If you liked COD 4 then I really dont see how you couldnt like this one either? My only two complaints with this game is that the single player is a little on the short/easy side and when you play it online the game is in denial at times. You can unload a clip in someones face and ....they.... will kill you and when the kill came comes up it shows you missing them be a mile. How can I see one thing and someone else see something else? Its like the game is possesed and takes sides at times?!? If you are not going to play it online then this may not be a good $60 purchase for you because that is where its at with MW2!
What's great about it: Online game play, insane graphics, awesome replay value
What's not so great: the single player mode is easier than I like
Learn more about Dante's Inferno. (Flash demo) For millennia, the concept of hell has captivated saints and sinners alike. And for centuries, the Western world's image of hell has found its inspiration in the compelling 14th-century epic poem "The Divine Comedy." Drawn from part one of this revered work of literature, Dante's Inferno thrusts you into the darkly imagined world of the nine circles of hell. Step into a nightmarish realm where you'll confront hideous monsters and your own shadowed past, and see if you can withstand the cruel punishments of hell.Based on part one of Dante Alighieri's enduring "The Divine Comedy," chronicling Dante's journey through hell in pursuit of his beloved Beatrice, Dante's Inferno sets you on a twisted course through the menacing nine circles of hell. Face up to the consequences of your own sins and your unforgivable war crimes as you traverse the realms of limbo, lust, gluttony, greed, anger, heresy, violence, fraud and treachery. Battle increasingly fierce and dangerous monsters as you come closer to your goal, and seek both vengeance and redemption within the snare of hell's dark fires.

I just downloaded the 1 Gig demo from XBOX Online and......WOW! There were demons, death, Hell, lots of blood and even some nudity.....all in the demo. I cant wait to see what is in the whole game. A great aspect of the game is the fact you can decide how to kill your enemy after you impel enemies on your weapon......rip them to shreds or whip out the cross and finish them that way. This is God of War meets Castlevania and The Suffering for the PS2! This thing is going to be AWESOME!!!!
What's great about it: The story, graphics, blood!!!!

This is the deal with this game. It is like the older versions of SF but just a little harder. All versions had combo moves just like this one. Its not hard to release the hidden characters....it can be done on the easiest setting....you just have to complete the game with the correct characters and/or the correct method. This game is challenging but not impossible. Its alot like older ones so if you like those then you should like this one too. The story line and the sound track is the worst that I have ever seen though....CHEEZZZZZZZEY!!!
What's great about it: Bringing back the good old days. A good game to play if you are short on time
What's not so great: Lots of combos to learn. Controls are a little touchy

I downloaded the playable demo yesterday and I can honestly say that I was VERY impressed! Just like the earlier Red Faction for the PS2 you can tear up the buildings, cars.....EVERYTHING! This is something that most people want to do while playing but dont have the opertunity to. The demo is great and I will be purchasing this on the 2nd when it is released!!!
What's great about it: Having the ability to destroy the environment around you!
What's not so great: Nothing so far......unless you are wanting it to be a first person shooter like the first 2 Red Factions????

I'm sorry to say after much anticipation for this game I was a little dissapointed. The campain mode on the game is pretty good but the problem is with the online side of the game. I can care less if you can play with up to 60 players in a match if the game play and graphics are poor....which they are. I dont understand how the first Resistance was good in campain mode and online mode and this one isnt. I really, really want to like this game all the way around but I find myself wishing that I would have bought C.O.D. instead.

This may make me a little partial to Zelda in general but I have been playing Zelda games since the very first one in 1986, so to say the least I LOVE ZELDA! But if the game sucked I would still tell you!! I'm no where near finishing this game but what I have played so far I like allot! This is an all around good game. It has a good story line; the game play is challenging but not to challenging and it makes you think. The only thing that I don’t care for is during the storylines throughout the game you have to read everything........it doesn’t have voice overs like PS3 and 360 games. I still like the game allot and I suggest buying it!!!!
What's great about it: The storyline, game play, challenge

I will put this plain and simple.........This is the best shooter that is out. This game BLOWS AWAY FEAR, The Darkness and every other game that I have played on the PS3. I'm a pretty big Halo fan and I would say that this game is better than Halo 1 & 2. If you like first person shooters than you CANT go wrong with RESISTANCE.
What's great about it: EVERYTHING!
What's not so great: The hours of my life that gets devoted to it

The first piece of advice that I will suggest for this would be "Stay Away" if you choose to give it a try anyway (Because you are a die hard Transformers fan) at least rent it first and give it a try before you buy it. I rented this game and I wanted my money back, I didnt even keep it the full week of the rental! I have PS1 and PS2 games that are at least this good! DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!
