IGN has posted their review for Resistance: Retribution, a spin off game from the popular series on the Playstation 3; it comes out March 17th in NA and March 13th for EU.

Final Score=9.2

There's no sense in beating around the bush -- Resistance: Retribution is excellent. It's got a main character you'll connect with, an engaging single-player campaign, a crapload of unlockables, PS3 connectivity and the strongest online multiplayer I have ever seen in a PSP game. In short, you're an idiot if you don't buy this game.

Set between Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2, Retribution tells the tale of James Grayson. A British Marine, Grayson was doing his part in the fight against the Chimera when he and a pair of soldiers stumbled into the middle of the Chimera conversion process (i.e. a beast turning a human into a monster). The boys took out the overseeing baddie but discovered that the person on his way to becoming the enemy was actually Grayson's brother. Grayson kills his own brother and it basically cripples Grayson's life as he knows it. He goes AWOL from the armed services and sets out on a one-man campaign to blow up every conversion center he can find. After eliminating more than 25 of the enemy bases, the Marines catch up to Grayson. See, while he's become a folk hero to the human race, the Brits aren't too keen on desertion; they arrest, try and sentence Grayson to death. Before he can face the firing squad, the European resistance known as the Maquis pops up to ask for some help delivering a serum that should clear out the Chimera. The Brits agree, release Grayson and the war is back on.
