Review & Description
Experience the first two installments of the critically-acclaimed Resistance franchise with the Resistance Greatest Hits Dual Pack, complete with over $10 of bonus DLC. It is 1951, an alien species known only as the Chimera have taken over Asia and most of Europe. In Resistance: Fall of Man, follow U.S. Ranger Nathan Hale as he supports the British resistance in a desperate attempt to prevent mankind's total annihilation. Then, rejoin the fight in Resistance 2 as humanity's fate is once again placed in Nathan's hands as he fights to defend America while struggling to survive the Chimera infection inside himself.
The Resistance Fall of Man series is the pinnacle of First-Person Shooter action to date on the PlayStation 3 and a perennial bestseller since its initial release in 2006. The Resistance Greatest Hits Dual Pack allows players new to the game world of Resistance to inexpensively experience the first two installments of the critically acclaimed franchise back-to-back, and also prepare players for the late 2011 release of the much anticipated Resistance 3. This unique dual pack also includes over $10 of bonus DLC including the exclusive Resistance 3 Capelli SRPA skin, the Aftermath multiplayer map pack and two additional Resistance 2 skin DLC releases.
Every Resistance Has Its Beginning
The Resistance franchise is set in an alternate Earth history in which the great conflict of the twentieth century is not against the Axis powers during World War II, but instead against an alien scourge known as the Chimera at the end of their conquering march across Europe and then on to America. Told through a science fiction and horror storyline, players take on the role of Sgt. Nathan Hale, an unlikely last hope for the human race.

Two Great Games Included
Resistance Fall of Man
In Resistance: Fall of Man, US and British forces band together in a last-ditch effort to save England from a horrific scourge -- the Chimera. This parasitic species infects other life forms with a virus that rapidly mutates victims into new Chimera. In mere decades this race has ripped apart populations across Asia and Europe and by 1951 has landed on the shores of England. You play the part of US Army Ranger Nathan Hale, fighting alongside a group of British resistance soldiers to free the country from the Chimera and to halt their spread across the globe.
Game Features
