Even now I remember being excited about this game when it came out so many years ago. With an environment you could tamper with in every way possible, even the floor, it made every time you played very different! This was the first game to introduce a 'GeoMod technology' environment which the possibility to destroy the entire map was endless. ...  Read the complete review

Intro Red Faction is a first person shooter that premiered on the PC before making the transition to the PS2 console. As far as I know it’s a straight port albeit the obvious omission of any network support due to the current lack of a modem for the console. After checking out the website I also found out the PC version includes a ...  Read the complete review

I wasnt expecting much when I installed Red Faction and got ready to play for the first time as the review's I had read had been mixed but.... Any game that allows me to stick an explosive pack on an enemy, then light him on fire with a flame thrower, watch him run around screaming(still on fire), before I proceed to blow him into tiny ...  Read the complete review

Seeing his friend killed by a guard starts the ...  Read the complete review

Wanted: Highly skilled worker for a huge new company expanse. The pay is great, the hours flexible. Disadvantages? Not many. The beatings from the guards can become irratating, and the deadly virus can get in the way of work, but apart from this, it is a highly-respected position. Oh, and it's on Mars. Right. But there are a ...  Read the complete review

If you asked me for a list of top first person shooters I’d have to include Half-Life, Goldeneye and Rogue Spear. Having played the likes of Quake 3 and Unreal Tournament too I’d say that this type of title is best suited for the PC. Nintendo/Rare did a magnificent job with Goldeneye on the N64 although the control method was never as ...  Read the complete review

This game is of the one person blast en up genre. Unlike normal shoot em up games, this one hits a whole new level. This game incorporates what THQ (the makers) like to call Geo-Mod technology. This basically translates as if it moves blast it. If it doesen`t move....still blast it. In this game you can blow walls to hell in the same way ...  Read the complete review

When I first heard about Red Faction, in the early stages of its development, it was one of the few games that really caught my eye. This new Geo-Mod Technology thing was just gaining some recognition, and once I heard what it could (potentially) do, I was even more intrigued. It was about time an FPS got a serious facelift, and Volition/THQ were ...  Read the complete review

Red Faction is a new Playstation 2 game recently released, presenting us all with the question ‘Is it any good?’ and ‘is it another poor PS2 game?’. This is what my opinion will aim to do. For starters, Red Faction is a first person shooter, you see through the characters eyes with the gun on the screen. It ...  Read the complete review
