seriously, i got the game yesterday and ive been hooked ever since. Of course MP isint online yet but thats expected since my store doesent give a rats A$$ about release dates. but ya, the missions are diverse, the land is huge, and the game is overall really fun and youll spend alotta hours on it. the destructability has yet to get old on me and suprises me all the time and weapons only add to it. Ya the combat and shooting and ai is a bit flacky but i think the game was meant to be more of a tech showcase and is still fun. and MP will only add to it. Im already having more fun with this game then i am with infamous. (which ill prob sell btw cause most single player games arnt worth keeping if i buy them, and no i dont give a $%it about a game over just for a different ending or trophies. i seriously dont understand why people actually go to lengths for trophies and achievements. it doesent so skill it just shows u have way to much time on ur hands :P (for the most part) i think most hate stems from the nostalgic RF players who wanted an fps and such. anywayz, if anyone else has it for ps3 adn wanna do some online, my psn is deadlyliquidx. p.s if u wanna get a game early, dont buy from a major retailer!! go to some random ass local game store, if there like mines, they just start selling soon as the game comes in.

Played the demo, terrible shooting mechanics + abysmal AI were a huge drawback. But damn, those physics are wicked fun to mess around with. Without the sledgehammer, the game would be another mediocrity shambling onto store shelves.

Honestly, I get more fun out of building something out of Lego's, throwing it at the wall, and seeing everything break apart.

RFG just didn't strike me as very enjoyable. I love the RF games, mostly the original, but this game doesn't feel like RF. The atmosphere is lacking in so many ways. It's so boring and dull.

The cover system is pretty poor and not on par with other cover systems in the business.

It's cool to break buildings apart and slam into them with trucks for about 5-10 minutes, but beyond that, it's pretty boring and lifeless, imo. Sandbox games are best when the world feels unique and alive. RFG has neither, imo. They could've went far out considering it's on Mars, so they could've stretched its sci-fi nature to make a more exciting playground to play in, but sadly, Volition didn't seem very creative with this one. Better luck next time, guys.

The devs said not so long ago they basically had the 360 maxed-out running this game. :lol:

Tbh I found the game( based on the demo) to be bit of a one trick-pony.The novelty of blowing stuff up would quickly wear thin and all thats left is an uninspiring 3rd person action game.

Probably because it doesn't have the Valve or Infinityward logos on the box, right people?

You don't buy 8.0's? Hmm, there are plenty of other 8.0's that are better that you missed out on, then. I recommend something else.

I played the demo and it was okay. The destruction was pretty good. But I bought Infamous instead. That game is so much fun. I may buy Red Faction when it becomes cheaper.

I tried the SP demo, and the shooting mechanics didn't feel right, I wasn't a big fan of the movement physics either. The destruction was ok, but the physics are so unreal with the character and the debris. It felt like everything was made of styrofoam, and my character was a helium filled baloon man.

Well, an 8.0 is a "great", "impressive", etc, game from the "pros", as you call them. So if you listen to them, then they don't "suck", right?

played the SP demo which was quite boring, MP however was really fun. cant decide if I should get this at release or wait till price goes down, i mean I will only be getting this for MP but £35 just for MP is too much

i usually also dont watch movies that critics pan, except ill admit ill watch terminator even tho its less than par on rotton tomatoes, but only because im sure the sequal will be much more entertaining and epic, like dark knight to batman begins... and most of the time their right, i find if i dont listen to critics, the movie sucks as much as they agreed it would, so i agree with them.
