Red Faction: Guerilla is actually pretty fun.

So today I played the demo...a couple times actually. The physics are really fun to play with and well done and the graphics are decent.

Before I downloaded it I knew right away that it would fail miserably but I was wrong.

Go give it a try if you haven't already.

Already did, terrible. The controls were awful and I am annoyed it isn't a FPS anymore. Play Red Faction and Red Faction 2, they were better. But all should download the demo and judge for themselves.

I didn't like it. Gunplay felt weak, cover system wasn't too great, destruction feels like window dressing after a few minutes, and it just felt disappointing all around.

It's okay, it's fun for a short period of time, but I couldn't play it for hours on end.

I absolutely agree about the controls, they are bad. And I am dissapointed that it isn't an FPS anymore. Red Faction 1 was one of my favorite last gen games. It blended in great gameplay with a good story.

Judging from what I'm hearing this isn't the Red Faction of old. It's kind of saddening. They pioneered FPS environment destructibility and it sucks that they joined the shooter party so late this gen.

I dont think anyone is going to care.


Oh yeah, and to those wondering, they decided to make it a Third Person shooter because they found that when testing the game, they would randomly die by getting hit by destructed objects that they could not see... I don't think making it in third person would've made a difference but alas, it's a TPS now.

Red Faction 1 was so good, I feel the golden age of FPS was last gen. I have seen so few great FPS this time around.

It's embarrasing how these new gen games can't give the level of destructibility as Red Faction 1. It was pretty fun messing around with the tech and creating tunnels.

It was a blast to play, not too fond of the third person aspect of it though.

Could have used a more interesting setting. Smashing stuff is all fine and good, but there's not much to smash in a Mars mining colony.

It was cool,but the framerate suffered a lot when you were destroying a lot of things at the same time.

Like going with that 'walker' through a building.

I actually surprisingly enjoyed the demo. My only gripe about the controls was crouching and the way it's implemented. Blowing stuff up is fun, and the amount of interactivity and physics is impressive. Also, there is an element of randomness, there are random cars going on the road each time you play, and that walker you have to steal has random colors almost every time. I hope the full game won't get repetitive after short time. Initially, I'm definetly interested in the game, and I'm surprised that it didn't get more attention here.

Wait.. it isn't a FPS anymore? Oh that takes away any hopes i had for the game. Red Fraction 1's destructiveness was purely awesome, being able to dig tunnels and all. Red Fraction 2 had an awesome story line in my opinion and the multi-player against bots was surprisingly fun. I still might try this one though.

it was amazing. anyone who says red faction 1 is better needs to go back and play it lol. it has more auto-aim than goldeneye.

bad controls? in what way? worked great for me, maybe you just need all that auto-aim becuase you are terrible at aiming.

if i'm not mistaken, this game is a free-roaming tps, and it's made by the same developers that made saints row. i wonder though if this game is directly made using assets from saints row, probably to save money, except that they added more destruction. correct me if i'm wrong though.

I pre-ordered it from Amazon... Going to get the golden hammer. :P

This game is uber fun. I did so many things in just the demo alone. I can't wait to destroy my way through this game.

First thing I'm doing is upgrading my explosive charges. Slapping 4 on the tires of my vehicle and ramming it into the side of a building... Exploding it into a heavenly fire ball.
