Storyline
The story line is : Your a miner that works on mars, on the ads they
made the life on mars being a miner sound great. The treatment of
miners is horrible, worse than the treatment of slaves. Some of the
miners form an underground group named "Red Faction" The
purpose of this group is to liberate the miners. This group is the
spark that starts the flame and you are caught in the middle
Graphics
The graphics are very well done, but I feel that if they wanted to
that they could have produced better graphics. A higher polygon
count wouldn't have hurt at all. But overall Id say that they are
above par.
Gameplay
The gameplay is really cool. If you thought Time Splitters was
revoluntionary then think again. One of the members of the red
faction team was right as to call time splitters "feable".
In most games it is what can you blow up? but in red faction
it is what can't you blow up? I found this aspect of the game
very cool. When I started feeling board, I would just pull out some
C4 and start blowing a tunnel through the wall. Of course everything
isn't destructable, if it was then what would be the purpose of
level design?
Fun Factor
Well I don't know if it is just me but I find blowing sh*t up very
fun, so of course I am going to give this game a high mark. The
weapons are cool and well modeled. What would be worse than a ugly
shotgun? They have some very cool second uses too. Almost all have
second uses. For instance with the "shock stick" (Pictured
At Right) you can either shock people or club them with it
Overall
Overall I would have to say that if you have to buy one First Person
Shooter for ps2 than you should buy this!
