One of the backdrops of Resistance: Fall of Man is a Cathedral in Manchester that is in ruin and being attacked by the creatures known as the Chimeras. As US Ranger Nathan Hale, you take part in a shoot-out against the Chimeras, with the ability to destroy more of the surrounding's - the Cathedral.

With the destruction of a place of worship, the Church of England are demanding that Sony Apologise for the use of the Cathedral and the withdrawal of the game.
