Red Faction

We have to admit that most first-person games nauseate us, but Faction’s smooth graphics and easy gameplay make it hard to put down.

Employs a completely new Geo-Mod game engine that lets you destroy the environment unlike anything ever experienced before.

If this game isn't added to your library in the very near future, than you really need to have your head examined. Get it, and get it SOON. You can't miss this one.

Red Faction joins the ranks of the PS2 triple-A titles. Solid control, a good story, an incredible atmosphere, and a long adventure make Red Faction an awesome package.

Red Faction delivers a satisfying, if slightly flawed single player experience and a distracting, but ultimately shallow multiplayer mode. The graphics are impressive, and the technology introduced in this game is amazing, it's just unfortunate that it hasn't been used to its fullest potential.

The single-player mission mode is where the game shines. Graphics are excellent and close-ups on characters reveal such subtleties as eyes moving independently and blemishes on the skin.

For all of its strong design and competent game play, however, Red Faction still never quite adds up to the "Half-Life" it aspires to be.

Underrated game, I don't understand why Red Faction 1 was poorly rated for its time. This game deserves to be in the pantheon of the best FPS!

Se trata de un shooter legendario que bebe directamente de aquellos shooters post noventeros a lo half life que tanto nos siguen gustando a los amantes del genero. Pese a contar con mecanicas interesantes y novedosas, como la destruccion de escenarios, Red Faction la caga en su último tramo con unos últimos niveles demasiado complicados. Tratando de solucionar un pobre diseño de niveles a base de lanzarte oleadas de enemigos de élite que absorven las balas de tus cargadores mientras ellos te aniquilan de un solo disparo. Es un final demasiado pobre para un juego que cumplía muy bien hasta esos últimos niveles.

Es un juego con temática interesante, me recordó un poco a Half-Life en estética, pero en lo personal, no me pareció tan interesante como este último, ya que hay cosas en la historia que se dejan un poco de lado y te pueden dejar algo confundido, lo recomendaría unicamente para los fanáticos de los shooters que quieran pasar un buen rato.

At first, it's an amazing experience full of enjoyment. Difficulty is just right and progress is rewarding. It has a length that no modern linear shooter could rival. Then comes the inevitable part where developers run out of ideas and want to make the game harder. New bullet sponge enemies are introduced along with new weapons with insane damage and lots of chances to insta-kill the player. The game becomes cheap and unfair. Any enjoyment gets drained out and it just becomes an idiotic chore. Steady progress at a fair pace gets replaced with trial and error, and skill-based gameplay becomes luck-based. There's no option to change difficulty mid-game and no cheat codes even to help wade through the trash, hoping to see a glimmer of hope again. It's such a shame. The game is so thoroughly enjoyable at first, but then it needs to show you why it was never considered a classic. I haven't been so deceived and disappointed in a long time.

Un muy buen juego para 2001, pero tener que jugarlo con el mando de Ps2 es muy frustrante por momentos y destruye totalmente la experiencia en ciertos puntos del juego, al contrario que Red Faction 2 este no se compatible con teclado y ratón. Juégalo en Pc
