Resistance 2

In the first title the protagonist Sgt.

Nathan Hale, part of a US Rangers task force, managed to stop the invasion in Britain, but the rest of Europe was left invaded.

In the sequel, the Chimera have reached the United States and threaten to invade it.

Once again starring Nathan Hale, he is now part of the The Sentinels task force that captured him at the end of the first Resistance .

Just like the other members who fight along with him he has been infected with the Chimeran virus, but is able to keep it under control using drugs while reaping the benefits of the powers.

Unlike the first game there is limit to the amount of guns and grenades he can carry, and with no visible health system it can be replenished by seeking cover, a tactic also employed by Call of Duty 4 .

Multiplayer is offered in two flavours: cooperative and competitive.

Unlike the first game, co-op for the singleplayer portion is not available.

Competitive gameplay supports up to 60 players simultaneously with four main modes: Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Core Control (Captur

Resistance 2 for PlayStation 3 is currently worth €10.58 loose, €5.20 complete in box, and €19.95 factory sealed. Prices are based on real sales and update regularly on Gamevaro.

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. For Resistance 2, loose is €10.58 and CIB is €5.20 — CIB commands a premium because original boxes and manuals are fragile and often don't survive.

The PAL version of Resistance 2 is currently worth €10.58 loose, versus €9.65 for NTSC-U. Regional price differences usually come down to print run size and regional collector demand.
