Red Faction Guerrilla is a game that takes place on Mars. You take the role of Mason, a man who seeks revenge for the death of his brother. The storyline is a little bland and the characters are cliche. This is not a game you should play for the story. RFG is a game you play for how fun it is to be able to break anything in the game (except for the ground on Mars). If you get this game I HIGHLY recommend playing the online multiplayer mode. Playing online is a great twist to the kind of multiplayer action you're used to.
The worst part of the game is that you'd find yourself not caring to much for the environment in single player. After a while, the buildings look the same. That said, being able to destroy whatever you want is a load of fun!

"if you want a sandbox game to destroy everything this is the game for you. use your sledgehammer to knock down support columns to bring a building down, or use bombs to take out the supports, and if that gets old, just drive through the place in a vehicle and call it done.
everything in the game can be destroyed. the physics are good and every building falls differently which keeps it awe inspiring. the story is ok but isnt grade A and you can read about it in the description so i wont get into it. this game is about destruction. once you destroy buildings, walls, vehicles, people you collect items to salvage to use to purchase new upgrades which is cool. the graphics are great and the landscape is your playground of destruction, go bring down some buildings already

The Red Faction title was such an amazing title and I ranked it one of the best titles for ps2. Although, this one just hit that bar for me... It was an alright game... Story line got kind of old after a while and I found myself doing the same thing over and over and over again...
Me and my brother used to play Red Faction 2 nonstop on multiplayer with bots and it was SOO fun... I think they put a little bit too much focus in destroying virtually everything and not as much on the actual storyline and gameplay.
I still would recommend this game though... Even with the repetitiveness it is something completely different than any other game out there and brings something new to the table for the first week or so..

This was first foray into shooters since Goldeneye and I was not disappointed! Set in futuristic Mars, RFG delivers on all aspects of gameplay, from story to weapons and replay value, this game is it! I especially enjoyed the backpacks in multiplayer; it's a lot of fun to Rhino someone and give them the business end of the WarHammer! For all trophy hunters this Platinum is an 8 out of 10 as the online XP is hard to attain and it took me about 2 months of casual online play to get the required items done. I also did it with no boosting, all skill. Trophy difficulty aside, a great game that is well done and successfully brought me back to shooters!

This games moves me in a good way. Can't believe the games seem to keep getting better and better. With each time I play this game I get further and further. They pretty much covered everything on this game. We have explosions, action, acts and graphics beyond me. The concept of this game is different. Different is good because it sets itself apart from the other game. Just play this game one time and you will understand. The weapons, the kill etc...I keep going but just try it out!

I must preface this by saying I love the first two games. I played the first one probably three times through. However, this one is completely understandable on its own. The story is pretty simple to understand and its the same basic Red Faction idea. People were promised a future on Mars where they could start over, but when they get there they become oppressed by the governmental agencies. Its your job to lead the revolution.
I first played the downloadable demo of this game on PSN, which was not too impressive. I held off for a little bit to see the ratings of this game on IGN.COM and saw that it got a respectable review. I am a big fan of third person shooters, so I gave this one a shot. I am so glad I did. The demo does not do this game justice because it does not demonstrate the pure awesomeness of taking down a huge tower or building with the power of a hammer or "fireworks" as I like to call them. In the first mission of the game you take down a building and tall tower, and by take down I mean level. Its especially funny when you are in the building as it comes crashing down! Its an adult version of boom blox (for wii) on the planet of mars! Just a fun game. The missions are not repetative and suck you in. The only problem I have is when you go into an enemy area and start a fight by taking down one of their buildings you become swamped from all sides with enemies. At points it gets ridiculous, a 20 minute skirmish may be realistic, but if you die, you have to start all over with the mission. Get it right the first time. However, do not let that stop you from purchasing this game. If you like third person shooters, such as the Max Payne series, InFamous, or even the GTA series, then this is unquestionably a game you should add to the collection! Props to THQ!

I was up until 6AM playing this last night. Need I say more? It's a fun game with great missions. You basically destroy stuff all day with a hammer and explosives. I do not regret playing this at all. The sound is also great in the game. I like all the red faction games and this one is no exception.
