Gamer Limit writes: "Like its predecessors, Resistance: Retribution throws the player into a raging war between the human race and the Chimera - the latter making giant leaps in its basic goal of taking over Planet Earth, the former struggling to stop it from happening. But, unlike the first-person experiences offered on the PlayStation 3's Resistance: Fall Of Man and Resistance 2 - between which this European adventure lies - the PSP title is a third-person affair. What's more, it introduces a new protagonist to the series in the shape of James Grayson, a tough talking Londoner with a grudge and more hair than Nathan Hale. But is it any good? Hit the jump to find out."

The Game Rating and Administration Committee of Korea has rated Resistance: Retribution for PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4, suggesting the PSP title will join the PlayStation Plus Classics Catalog.
This will def be easier to play on tv than originally designed. I remenber hooking psp to ps3 to use a ds3. Cumbersome but it worked. Its a good spin off.
Hope we will get Valkyria Chronicles 2-3 and Carnage Heart at some point. There's a bunch of psp games I never got a chance to play.
I didn’t know this title existed, so when I saw the headline, I thought a new Resistance was being made. Man I miss that series!
While the studio is best known for Spyro the Dragon, Ratchet, and Clank, and Spider-Man back on the PS3 the studio broke from creating platformers and made one of the highest regarded science-fiction first-person shooters of all time. This was Resistance and it remains one of Sony's most acclaimed and dormant franchises.
Resistance 3's campaign was gorgeous for the time - and an awesome game to boot.
I've said in the past I'd like to see this series return and have it take place years later, like in the present.
I'll give you an example if I'm not mistaken the last game ended in the 50s, so if it was to take place some time in the 2020s you'd have an opportunity to see how the world changed after the fall of Chimera and all the new technology that came out of that war.
Just like in our universe we all know WW2 happened, but we never experienced it, so if the next Resistance game takes place years later so too would people in that universe know a war look place against the Chimera, they just wouldn't know what it really was like.
So getting to see how that universe would respond to the Chimera reemerging would be interesting.
Imagine a little kid talking with his grandfather about the war and the kid just thinks it was just a made up bed time horror story and what was said was worse than what really took place, but now that the Chimera come back the kid will find out why years later the old timer adults were still waiting for the Chimera to return.
I think there is great potential for this series still and I really believe the best way forward for Resistance is make it have a time jump too.
So hopefully this series will return.
I was blown away when i played for the first time Resistance on the PS3. Great Game. Also liked very much an played for hundred of hours the Co-op of R2. The SP campaign of R3 is also excelent. I really hope that Sony and Insomniac annouced the Remaster of the Series and a new chapter. They got story to do that.
Resistance 2 was one of the first few games i played on ps3 and I loved it, would definitely finish that again :D
Hm. I didn't dig Resistance 2 but I want to try this.
It was generic on the PS3, I wonder if it can possible be better on a PSP
I love Sony Bend. They've done a fantastic job with the Syphon Filter PSP games. Still need to pick this up.
I use this game to clean out the kitty litter
i played it everyday for 3 weeks for 45 minutes at a time. theres underwater levels where your swimming that are incredibly difficult. i use the auto aim off option and if you connect this game to resistance 2, you can breathe in those death defying swimming levels. dont be afraid to game share in public. just tap the person you see rockin a psp and get some online multiplayer capture the flag points going.
