The Red Faction demo came out quite some time ago, what did everyone think? Personally, I found it to be extremely cool with the destructable environments and really good combat.

Already been a thread about this but that was before the Demo became public. So i'll let it slide :P

It's a must buy to me its a great game and the idea of the controlling areas just makes me smile with joy. The demo was great had some good explosions and once I got in the walker and broke through the hanger door to see like 50 troops and armor. I got this huge smile on my face and said to my self... Its party time and began to throw stuff in every direction... It was awesome.

I've only played the closed multiplayer beta a few months ago, but I didn't enjoy it very much. I'm interested in trying the demo but my 360 got RROD. :(

It was crazy fun. Am I the only one who didn't even use the cover mechanic? I completely forgot it was there the entire demo. Even on hard mode, I went on a killing spree and took out like 15 guys, yet I didn't use it. That's my only complaint, the game feels a little too easy.

loved it on my ps3, i havn't gotten to my friend's house to see if they're the same on both yet, but MAN! i just loved crushing the big trailer trucks into the buildings, when i got bored i started leading my enemies into the top floor, smashing out a window and jumping out, so they won't follow and they stay up there to snipe, then getting a truck and crushing the building so they all fall to their death. it's awesome.

I thought it had a really janky feel to it. But I did get a chuckle out of running through a building in that mech like thing. I wouldn't buy it, but I'm thinking of renting it. The demo had the feel of what could be a decent game, but it isn't fully cooked yet and they probably aren't going to fix it's problems by the time it gets released.

The games pretty cool, but i would of rather this game had the ability to use third or first person switch on the fly, or just be a first person shooter instead. it sucks some stuff disappears after you blow it up. also i keep dying so easily, i will be getting shot and i dont even know where it's coming from, games like this pisses me off, like the a.i know where you are at all times of the map. crysis is almost like this also, i will be getting shot allway cross the map in some woods and i dont even know where bullets coming from. radars shouldnt be in shooters either.

Quake 2's designer's were so ahead of their time, today's games have radar to let you know where enemys are, on quake you relied on sound effects to know where ur enemy is gonna be walking up from. you can hear peoples footsteps moving around the level and today's first person shooters you cant so they add a radar instead. but the problem, i dont like using a radar but dev's need to stop making games where you getting shot and you dont even know where the craps coming from. the a.i cant even see you yet is still shooting at you LOL.

It was pretty lame to be honest. That whole mech part was horribly boring.

LOL think about it, why does crysis have a radar? it's a game with a bunch of jungles, when people are walking through wooded area's you can hear people feet crunching the leaves, yet crysis enemys have no walking sound effect. so the dev's just suck now.

Yeah I felt the same way but wasn't Saints Row 2 like that? Extremely easy but extremely fun, Volition's style of making games I guess..

i dont even notice the radar is there really in crysis. or the map is there one? it's not really open world, the levels are pretty big but not like grand theft auto big. a map would take away the level exploration aspect.

ehh...not everything. Can you make tunnels?? NO!! And what is gonna happen online?? I'll tell you what's gonna happen, after about 10 seconds every building and distructable items is gonna be destroyed. And why is it so cool that you can use your hammer through everything?? Is that realistic? They forgot the physics engine somewhere a long the dev time.
