PALGN writes: "The PSP has a reputation these days of receiving sequels, prequels and mid-quels to just about every successful PlayStation brand-related franchise. Final Fantasy, God of War and Killzone have all had successful instalments on the handheld console, which expanded on their respective universes in different and interesting ways. Now, here comes Resistance: Retribution, set between the PlayStation 3 flagship titles of Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2, and developed by the blokes behind the Syphon Filter series at Sony Bend. While some things have changed, and the perspective has been brought back from first-person to third-person, the game has admirably kept the epic scope of the series on the handheld platform. But does Resistance: Retribution continue the fine tradition set by Insomniac's home console series, or does it try to do too much on Sony's little machine?"
