I have read great reviews of the first Red Faction, but many complaints about Red Faction II. First off, I have no complaints about this game, the action is fast and exciting, the controls are easy and I can't say enough about the graphics. I usually don't care for First Person Shooters but this game is a must for anyone who likes action with many different weapons to choose from, it is fun throwing grenades at enemies and hearing them shout, "INCOMING" The sound effects are great and the Geo Mod technology that lets you destroy the environment is awesome. I love the levels when you travel on vehicles, helicopters or tanks, it's great destroying everything in your path and meeting up with your teammates Molov, Quill, Tangier, Shrike, Repta and Echo. You are Alias, a demolitions expert and his primary gun is a grenade launcher that violently blows enemies to pieces, I love this game!

Join the revolution- all over again

This is an excellent port of the Ps2 version and includes the cool geo-mod engine. but it falls short on gameplay, THERE ISN'T ENOUGH, it will only take you a few sittings to complete this game, but it does have upsides!

The geo-mod engine, which was almost completely ignored in the first one is back and better, including several missions that require you to alter your surroundings.

If you're sick of other first person shooters, give this a try, but try before you buy.

Worth the wait

Still one of the best first person games and they have improved a lot of the graphics, movement, etc.

This is the "Halo" of PS2!

This is the Halo of PS2! It has the same story, same rechagable health, and same weapon types. I think this game is awsome if you liked Halo. If you loved Halo and hada PS2, and were acyually thinking about getting an Xbox for just Halo, don't. This game is worth it.

I only like a fiew 1st person shoters. this one l liked....

I don't play as much 1st person shotters as I do other games, but this one really stuck out (as did the first) to be a great game worth buying. It should be noted that I bought it when it was still full price and am fine with that being so on this perticular game. The single player part of this game is astounding (exept for the length) it wasn't that short but it could have been longer. I cannot stress enough what a great story this game tells! it is also cool because your enmias talk to you while your playing. the grahpics are like no other. and as in the first one you can still blow holes on the walls but in 2 they made it have more of a point and the most cirtanly made it more real looking.

I have beaten this game on easy and now that it has been beatin might stay unplayed for a while but not as long as most other games. Some of the missions are still fun to go back and beat again (like the vehical ones).

Multiplayer is a different story however it is also great. It is not nearly as realistic as 1PLR. my friends think it to be a lot like quake 3 and I can see why however I myself don't. It has the same sort of maps as quake 3, which for me is a dissapointment. I wanted big open areas like in Halo. the thing this dosn't promot is the use of vehicals in multiplayer: which is basically the one reason I Did not give it a 5. but somehow it still manages o be atleast extremly close to as fun as Halo. one thing that I can say is a cool feacher they added in multy player is that you can get health. the other is that there are all different sorts of game styles such as dictator (tag), of corst Capture the Flag mong others. and I think yo can unlock something if you beat the game in multiplayer like co-op. (I just beat it tonight so I'm not sure) the other thing I did not like is the fact that you can only have 6 epople, be it bots or human players at a time.

you cirtanly get a good amount of weapons in this game. even compaired to the weapon-filled first one. you also have the ability to have to weapons at the same time (unlike the 1st one). also while your holding a weapon you can throw a granade with your other hand.

the other thing that is good is the Atifical Intelagance. the enimy will hide and come out at you-so on...

here is the final tally

multyplayer
how fun:5/5
functionality:3/5
maps:3/5

single player
how fun:5++/5
functionality:5/5
leingth:3.5/5
maps:from about 3 to 5+/5

---I just hope that the x-box and game cube versions won't be better-that would make me mad---

my fears are only that they would add more players to the multiplayer

good game

RED FACTION IS AN OLDIE AND A GOLDIE. IT'S FUN TO PLAY GREAT ORIGINAL STORY LINE WITH FEW BUGS. I'VE PLAYED IT TWICE ALL THE WAY THREW AND EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE IT'S FUN TO JUST PUT IN AND GO. REMINDS ME OF WOLFENSTEIN WHEN IT FIRST CAME OUT. YOU CANT GO WRONG WITH THIS GAME.
