It's still lacking something in its presentation to give it a place among the other greats of this week, like Gears, Killzone 2 and RE5. Not in regards to game quality, but the presentation is "lacking."
I think it's a deliberate design to go with the desaturated look, and that's fine (I for one really appreciated how clean Resistance was), but it's just not as striking as either of the big three.
