How to play Resistance 2: Collector's Edition on Mac
Game summary
It's 1953. The Chimera have invaded America. Entire U.S. states lie in smoking ruins. Chicago and San Francisco are overrun. Mankind’s fate once again rests in the hands of Army Lt. Nathan Hale – an infected soldier who is becoming the enemy he despises.
The collector's edition was only sold in North America, and not in Europe due to the hassle of translating each aspect of the Collector's Edition to the various main languages in the continent, such as English, French, Spanish etc. as said by SCEE in a Press Conference prior to the game's release.

Play Resistance 2: Collector's Edition on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Resistance 2: Collector's Edition on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.
Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.
Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).
