Firstly, Insomniac aren't the second best PS3 team, they're the third. (Santa Monica and Team ICO take the first two spots)

Secondly, don't worry. Resistance 2 improved upon Resistance in every conceivable way. But they made you only carry two weapons at a time, and the controls on the whole became more standard FPS. They chucked individuality out of the window a little, but the core gameplay is great.

The campaign could use some work, the story is still a mess, the graphics are better, online has been boosted to 60 competitive, 8 co-op. There is a co-op campaign that you can play with:

1) Another player on the same system
2) Up to seven other people online
3) Another player on the same system AND up to six other people online.

Same with competitive, but change the 7 to a 59 and the six to a 58.

So yeah, it's worth a purchase.

 

Fourth.  Naughty Dog > Insomniac.  And, imo, Naughty Dog > Sony Santa Monica.

And while I've only played R&C Future, imo R&C >>>>>>>>> Res 1/2.

The first one is opinion, but Naughty Dog > Santa Monica? No way. Santa Monica made God of War. This makes them developer gods. Naughty Dog's finest work is Uncharted, which is excellent, but not a scratch on GoW. Insomniac's best work is Ratchet and Clank, and I would definitely say Future destroyed R2 if they had put online in! And like I said, R&C3 destroys everything else they have made, and propels them above Naughty Dog. Although Uncharted > Ratchet and Clank, I prefer Resistance to Jak.

I'm guessing you have Team ICO at the top? I have them in second.

OT: Everything you mention, Maxwell, I think "They fixed that in the sequel". I'd say it's definitely worth picking up.
