Great game but it is not Gears of War
This game is widely considered the best PS3 game on the market. I tend to agree because this is a solid game with many great features.

Gameplay:
Resistance Fall of Man is a great shooter. It has a wide variety of tactics and has a very interesting take on what a shooter should be. Its controls work flawlessly and it provides a very well rounded experience. The only reason that this game suffers is because it is inevitably compared to Halo and Gears of War and by that standard it is not up to par. While this game has great variety of weapons they just seem to pail before the options given in Gears. After playing both games considerably I have come to the conclusion that Gears simply has more personality and it is simply funner to play than Resistance.
Gameplay Score:8

Gameplay Score:8

Graphics:
The visuals in this game are sharp and impressive. It has a very well polished and finished look to it. The character and opponent animations are flawless and well defined while still staying fluid. If this game is an example of what the PS3 is capable of I am looking forward to see what they can make next.
Graphics Score:10

Sound:
Great sound quality is very key to this game. The battle audio is flawless and exhilarating not to mention sharp and clean. This is an area in which the sound quality actually exceeds that of its rival Gears of War.
Sound Score:9

Value:
An overall short single player mode is a drawback but that is standard in Multiplayer shooters in recent years. It has a great online mode which is free to use which adds to the value of the game. You get a well polished game for your money.
Editor review : The PS3's Best game so far

Resistance; Fall of man, is the best PS3 game so far. If you have a PS3, but not resistance, do yourself a favor and go get it. The story, in itself, is very good, centering around US sergeant Nathan Hale, who, in retro-futuristic alternate history england, is the only American survivor of a chimeran attack in the city of York. the chimera are the main enemy, and there are plenty of different types of them you'll be killing along the way. Basically, you're trying to wipe out the chimera in england. now, the first thing I want to talk about is the weapons. weapons are always a crucial part of a good FPS, and resistance delivers. with plenty of weapons ranging from the classic shotgun to the auger (which can shoot through walls) and the hailstorm (which bounces off walls), you'll be kept entertained just by testing out new guns. The gameplay is very solid, and i haven't noticed a single glitch. you get a good 15 hours of gameplay out of story mode, and theres plenty more to unlock on your second play through. and the 40-player online games are the most fun I've had online for a while. The graphics and sound are awesome, even in 720p (which is the highest my tv supports). my only complaint is that resistance could have utilized the tilt control a little better. all in all, its a fantastic game that anyone with a PS3 should own.
