mastachief is full of crap

what he said is a lie, sure Halo might have been in development longer but I don't think Halo has geo-mod does it? Red Faction is not a rip off of Halo, a rip off is when you steal an idea or make it strikengly similar, Halo was originally third person, and RF is NOT a rip off of Halo. Anyway, idiots like mastachief should be banned from video games and consoles and kicked on the streets. Red Faction is similar to the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie "Total Recall", you play as a miner named Parker who joins the rebels to fight against the evil Ultor. Graphics 4.5, they look great but they are kinda dated now. Sound 4.5, the sound is great, from voice acting the gun fire but the problem now is enemies keep saying the same things once in a while. Controls 4.5, exactly the same as Alien Resurrection for psx, what makes them better? the auto aiming feature of course. Fun Factor 4.5, the levels are huge and the geo-mod feature is fun to fool around with, and the multiplayer is excellent. I strongly recommend Red Faction and ignore maggots like mastachief.
an ok somewhat good mediocre FPS

this game is okay but it lacks the spunk goldeneye had when it cam out. graphics are good. the enviornments are detailed very well and the whole geo-mod thing is really cool. multiplayer is fun when you have a friend over but it's really lackluster when it's just you & the bots. the sound is average. it's not great but it's not awful it's just there. pick up this game if you need something new and are low on cash. otherwise get timesplitters 2
Best FPS on PS2

This game is cool and the geo-mod rocks. However, there are too many "metal" walls and you can only blow up rock walls. The constant load times really get annoying, and sometimes they occur right in the middle of a gunfight. The weapons are good, especially the rail driver. It's pretty cool sniping guards through walls. The graphics are good, but the character models look a little strange when they talk, and sometimes their movements are kind out of sync with the sound. The sound is great and the music was alright, but the guards' phrases get kinda old and repetitive. The controls are good. Multiplayer is fun, and putting a bunch of bots in a small area can get very hectic, but it could use 4 player compatibility and maybe capture the flag or some other mode like that. Overall, it is really fun to play.
This game is great!

This is a great game.The sounds and control are very good.The graphics could use a little work and there should be more weapons.The geomod technology is awsome.You'll have a blast playing this game.
Isnt Geo-Mod technology great?

Red Faction is a great FPS. The story is well written and keeps you on your toes. Being able to blow up a bridge and watch an enemy truck fall down it is great. The music is very good and has some nice sounds. The thing that keeps this back from a 5.0 though is the frequent load times which often becomes annoying and a hassle. Also that fact that multi- payer is only up to 2 people and you cant drive the vehicles in it is a minus. Other than that this is a great PS2 FPS and i cant wait for RF2. Get redy to join the Red Faction Resistance!
