The gameplay mechanics still look amazing and those are the main draw of the series for me.

It's rather a faceless game. Resistance 2 really needs to make Nathan Hale someone you can identify with. It’s rather a faceless game.

At least play it first. The marine thing - yeah hopefully there isn't too much of that, as although this one is set in the mighty u s of a, so it has some reasoning, it doesn't really fit the era as much. Being set in the usa, they are probably going to market it for that market more aggressively too. Bit early to say yet isn’t it? At least play it first.

Technically it's an "alien invasion" story but the nuanced stuff like the mystery behind the Chimera's origins, the way the Chimera operate, who the Cloven are, and other stuff from intelligence reports actually comes together to make a pretty interesting story. As for the "Macho Marine" stuff, you kind of have to wonder who'd actually be fighting mutant aliens if they ever did come here... chances are it would be macho Marines. I mean, yeah, it's techincally cliche but not really any more cliche than having fast cars in a racing game or some kind of ball in a sports game.

As for the macho marine crap it's a little cliche now. But, what can you do? Oh, am I the only one who liked the story from Resistance 1?
