Mason’s brother Dan is already working there and it soon becomes apparent that he is part of a resistance movement called Red Faction. In RF Guerrilla you play as Alec Mason, just an ordinary guy who has come to terra-formed Mars to find work as a mining engineer. Those familiar with the first installments will recognise the story line. ![]() On hearing this I was dismayed, how could they do that to my cherished FPS experience? Well they have and it plays like the bastard offspring of Grand Theft Auto and Super Bomberman 3, and that is not a bad thing at all, mostly. Red Faction is no longer an FPS it’s gone all third person. Well, seven years on and the third installment is with us, and itis a total franchise re-boot. I still have fond memories of the riot that I had with the rail gun (pinning enemies to walls) in RF and in the mech like battle armour in RF II. Again devs Volition and publishers THQ delivered another sound gaming experience. Due to the success of the original we were treated to the cross-platform sequel, Red Faction II a year later, which continued the Geo-Mod trend but now set on earth. It was an awesome FPS, using developers Volition’s new Geo-Mod tech that rendered pretty much everything in the environment destructible and with its theme of Martian rebellion it was just like playing Total Recall. ![]() Man I loved the first Red Faction game on PS2, back in the day when I was a true Sony boy, circa 2001.
