Is Resistance 2 worth buying?

I've purchased and played the first Resistance and I wasn't too impressed. I still haven't finished it. It was an ok game but I have plenty of other games that I enjoyed a lot more. I'm in college and I work so I don't have too much time to play games that aren't really worth it. So my question is is if this game is a major improvement over the original and is it worth my time? I'm speaking to people who've actually played the game and understand my time constraint. Any advice would be appreciated.

if u didnt like the first one...then u may not like the second either

why dont u give it a rent to be sure its only like 6 bucks

Yes, this game has a little, no, A LOT of everything. Campaign, Co-op, Competitive, and Community. You'll find some way to enjoy this game, whether it be more in one aspect of the game than another.

However, I really recommend finishing the first game, as well as getting to know the Resistance universe, because it will help explain the campaign.

If you didn't like the first one, why would you buy the second one? It's essentially the same type of game. There are a few upgrades, including the online component. But it seems odd to buy part two if you didn't like part one.

i dont like the first one, but I'm getting the second one. It's just because of its online components =/

I heard its been improved alot since then. 

btw, I didnt play the first on huge hdtv =/ I played on my 29" sdtv thats why I didnt like it =/

Resistance 2, IMHO, is a bit of a disappointment. It only has an 88/100 on metacritic, and I expected at least a 92/100 metascore, so I won't be picking it up if it can't get more than 2 points above its predecessor. Lately R2's metascore has been dropping like a stone. Wouldn't be surprised if it went to 80 by the end of the week. Also consider that only 28 people have reviewed it over a week, whereas a game like Gears 2, which was out after R2, has 54 reviews already, and counting.Red_Nine

one question, what does anything you just said have to do with "you" buying a game?

I'm thinking of renting it first. It's $8 at blockbuster and unfortunately thats the place were I can rent thats within a 10 mile radius of me.
