Retro Review: Red Faction

Hello fellow parkers,

I bought this game when it first came out 5+ years ago but just got to it right now! I enjoyed the story of the game. This game I believe was one of the first games to have destructive elements in the engine. What was really funny to me is how they have a demo of a glass house that you can just keep shooting the glass panes out with unlimited Rocket ammo! Man, it is really scary how far technology has come in just 5 years isn't it? When I finished the game I decided to check out the multiplayer of the game and to my surprise people where actually still playing this thing online!! I couldn't get into the game because I didn't have the map that they were playing but I was really shocked to say the least! Since we are going thru the usual " summer drought" of new games now is an excellent time to pick this one up for a cheap price and get a quick FPS fix.

Pro
1. The vehicles you get to use feel really cool
2. Game is very stable
3. The comments from the enemies are freakn' hilarious
4. Hendrix does the funniest thing ever in a game... what people would go through just to see me:)
5. The boss battles were fun
6. 8-10 hours of FPS fun!!
7. People are actually still playing the multiplayer

Cons
1. The A.I. is pretty much non existent except for the bosses
2. Even though the comments are funny that the enemies say, it gets old quick!
3. The 2 main bosses felt like a "copy and paste" of each other


until next time..
