I was almost the exact opposite of this. I really liked Resistance 1, thought it was a solid enough shooter and a good first outing for Insomniac, only for them to follow it with what is probably one of the worst FPS titles I've ever played. I hated the second one. Absolutely hated it. Terrible pacing, terrible gameplay, terrible level design. The online mode was decent (competitive anyway, co-op was a pretty big let down), but there are so many that do online better that there wasn't much redemption for it to find there.

Is the online beta for 3 still going on? I'd be willing to at least give it a shot as long as I'm not paying for it, but the second game was so bad I would just write the series off otherwise. I actually downloaded the beta too, but haven't taken the time to try it yet.
