Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 - Reviews

9.5
based on 5 top critics

9.0
Modern Warfare 2 nails the three pillars of play--campaign, cooperative, and multiplayer--to earn its place in the pantheon of modern shooters.

10.0
Believe the hype: Infinity Ward's shooter is one of the year's finest games.

10.0
To outsiders, the changes in Modern Warfare 2 might sound minor. But if you've played a significant amount of Call of Duty 4, they range from "neat idea" to "totally mindblowing."

9.5
It's set to be one of the biggest selling games of all time. Is it one of the greatest?

9.2
With real-world locations and bombastic set-pieces, Modern Warfare continues the thrill-ride experiences and multiplayer fun of its predecessor.

Resistance 3 - Reviews

8.0
based on 7 top critics

7.0
I have had mixed experiences with the Resistance series. Like a lot of people in the UK, I picked up the first entry as part of a bundle designed to push the PlayStation 3 while it struggled to gain traction. I had a lot of fun with the game; it was a decent first person shooter with a reasonable hook. Unfortunately, the second game was an infuriating trial, one that seemed to lean far too heavily on the Ratchet & Clank series’ gameplay design without any of the fun. With that experience under my belt, I entered into Resistance 3 hesitantly.

Insomniac’s Third Installment Continues The Downward Trend

9.0
Don't resist the urge to experience the best game in the Resistance series to date.

8.5
Tightly balanced action and a superb array of guns make Resistance 3 a blast.

7.7
While Resistance 3 clearly steps forward as a improvement to the series, it's still not quite a great game overall.

8.0
Insomniac does a terrific job of making you forget about Resistance 2 with a sad, beautiful journey through the apocalypse.

9.0
An intense shooter experience that proves hard to resist.
