Great price, fun to play, like the story. Only difficult part was finding a game in the pre-owned options that was available to ship or in a store near me... need an easier option for sorting the list online that way.

The game is decent overall. Large maps with side missions to do. Weapons are hard to upgrade and run out of ammo quick. The best game in the series is Armageddon.

A ton of destruction but not much else

I have been a red faction fan ever since the first game for the pc. I loved the sequel as well. The destructibility in those games set the standard for destructible environments in my opinion.
I was excited to hear about another red faction coming out. I was worried when I heard that it would be a third person shooter instead of a first person one like the last two. In some ways my fears got put to rest after playing through the game, but others were only realized.
I start out by saying that this game is fun. Right when you jump into the singleplayer game you get to experience the awesome destruction you can create with game's impressive destruction engine. At first you just have a hammer and some charges. You first just learn how to take away the base supports for some buildings and then watch them topple under their own weight. Its an awesome sight to behold. Especially since the buildings are structures that you could enter and explore beforehand. This is what the game does extremely well. It puts plenty of tools in your hands and pretty much just lets you loose on the enemy and their base structures in a good sized open world.
Yes, there is a story campaign set in this world but that is where this game starts to falter. You see, this is just one of those stories that just gives you context for why you are blowing the life out of everything. You just go to a mission starter and then a guy tells you what to go and demolish. That's fine by me, however since destroying things is a lot of fun.
The fights are pretty intense in the game. It can be fun but sometimes they get pretty frustrating. If you stir up enough trouble with the enemy they will just send endless waves of guys to take you down. It can get to be you against one hundred. Your health does regenerate but if you can't get anywhere without enemies to let your health regenerate you experience a frustrating death. This is one of those games where you get in, destroy, and get out as soon as possible.
That being said, it is the biggest problem toward the end of the game. The story gets kind of and the missions get frustratingly hard. You pretty much just get sent on a bunch of suicide missions toward the end of the game.
The game runs well and looks pretty good for an openworld game. There are a few bugs here and there, but nothing too bad.
If you are a fan of the other red faction games then you may or may not like this game. The story is a let down and doesnt live up to the standards of the previous games. There is a ton of fun to be had, however, leveling huge structures to the ground. Its some of the most destructive fun you can have in a game.
