MikeB said: Resistance 2 is a great game! First IGN recommended Resistance 2 above Gears 2 and now rather unexpectedly for me Gametrailers awards Resistance 2 as best FPS of 2008. 8-) The graphics assets may not be as polished as Metal Gear Solid 4, Uncharted: Drake's Fortune and even Gears of War 2. But the game's graphics makes up for this in terms of scale and on screen activity, from most perspectives it's well a better game than Resistance 1 was. Online is far more extensive and better. IMO best FPS on the PS3, until the arrival of Killzone 2.

I'd say best traditional FPS, but IMO BioShock just about edges it out. Best exclusive FPS as well.

In a way, it's as good as Gears of War 2. You know what? It is as good as Gears of War 2. I've tried both, both were excellent.

Bioshock is a great and well polished game, great alternative horror atmosphere with many well pre-scripted events and story telling! But in terms of shooting fun and of course online, for me Resistance 2 is well above that game.

For example the helicopter crash site part of Resistance 2, so much is going on on screen at once. It feels like a full blown war, Bioshock provides a very different game experience with its much smaller but well polished environments. Or for example the Marauder or Mother Spider make Big Daddy look like a Dwarf Daddy in comparison. It's hard to directly compare these two games.

yah this is fair ... i still dont know how Left4dead get best fps game in gamespot

Although I've only played this game, the others would have had to have something really mind-blowing for me to change sides on this one. That 8 man co-op thing could've convinced me to buy this game alone. It is so much fun to go at it with 8 people. Time just flies by when you're playing co-op.

R2 is so awesome. way to go insomniac! :)

well deserved,just good graphiks but an amazing online you cant find it anywhere

You also should make threads about the best graphics/story awards. The community is furious!

It's hard to believe that two games in the same genre can be so different...and so brilliant.

Not much competition.

^There was Left 4 Dead...
