Before you press start
The three Insomniac games tell one continuous war, so start with Fall of Man and carry on from there. Retribution and Burning Skies follow other characters and work as optional side stories.
More than the main path
Resistance swaps the Second World War for a fight against the Chimera. Insomniac's trilogy follows that war from a battered Britain across America, with its trademark oddball weapons. Bend Studio and Nihilistic added handheld chapters on PSP and PS Vita.
