Red Faction II

THE GOOD:
- Unique number and variety of weapons - The GeoMod technology - The in-game music changes depending on situation - Lots of unlockables - One of the best multiplayer modes around - Two words : Battle Armour

THE BAD:
- Relatively short and repetitive single player mode - Varying difficulty curves - No multiplayer campaign - Cannot drive / fly vehicles

SUMMARY:
Released in October 2002, Red Faction II is still one of the best four years on. For a First-Person Shooter, and the next-generation consoles becoming more mainstream, that is one incredible feat. The sheer number ad variety of the weapons in Red Faction II is incredible. From Handgus to Rocket Launchers, Machine Guns to Rail Drivers, the sheer plethora of available weapons is amazing. And for those of us here that prefer to keep some distance between our un-suspecting foes and ourselves, there is not one but two different Sniper Rifles available. Having a heavy...

THE GOOD:
1.Cool blowing up walls with exclusive GeoMod technology.
2.Weapons are really cool.
3.The Graphics are quite good.
4.Great Gamplay it is very good.
5.The fact that you can blew off pieces of your enemies head.
6.Good plot twist.
7.Weapons lean towrds the future.
8.Good plot twist.(woops a typo lol.)
9.loads of differnet vehicles to drive,tanks,gunships,subsmarines etc.

THE BAD:
1.Weird looking mutations which more easily shocked gamers should avoid.

SUMMARY:
You play the role of Alias,the explosives guy on an elite team of nano-enhanced super-soldiers.It is set in the future as well.

Some weird stuuf like cicilians that are nano-enhanced.Yeah right maybe enhanced in other area apart from looks.



There is an extensive range of weapons,vehicless,enemies,civilians and much more.Yes much more........

THE GOOD:
Weapons
Crazy Violence
Destructable Environments
Vehicles

THE BAD:
Poor Graphics
Poor Plot
Annoying Characters
Annoying Difficult Later On

SUMMARY:
Red Faction 2 is not what you would want from a first-person shooter. It is a very mediocre experience that should be avoided.

The game's plot is cliched and has some very annoying characters. The Faction squad talk bullshit to you every two minutes and things are made worst anytime rookie, Echo, talks. The enemies in Red Faction 2 are very boring and blocky to look at. To be fair they are varied from Elite Robots to Mutants from projects that went very far wrong. But this game has went wrong.

So what is so crap you say. The gameplay is incredibly straightforward and standard. In terms of killing the normal human enemies without much armour on you could probably kill them with your early weapons. But a lot of the enemies take years to kill and you need to...

And I thought Red Faction original was good. The sequel is a vast improvement over the original game, everything has been beefed up and is easier to use.
The graphics are sharper, more realistic. The weapons are more versatile, more powerful. The enemies, smarter, faster.
In short, RF2 has been given a complete overhaul, and it seriously whips the ass off...

THE GOOD:
Great Graphics , Amazing AI , Terrific Teamplay (with the ingame characters)

THE BAD:
Predictable storyline you know the leader gets too much power goes nuts and gets the rest of the team not to help the Red Faction.

SUMMARY:
The Game is fairly long and has good AI , playing with the computer too help you is a great idea. However the graphics are dodgy in one spot.When you are in the sub the water is so dirty you can hardly see where you are going. The multi-Player is good especially with the choice of gameplay modes. The Design-a-Bot is also a brilliant idea.You can edit the bots personality traits (How it behaves)so you can have an easy bot to fight or a difficult bot to fight. The Choice of waepons far outstripps the first and so does the story mode with intresting fights after the team splits. All in all this game is easily worth the £39.99 price tag.

THE GOOD:
Stunning graphics, good A.I., strong multiplayer, decent storyline, great musical score

THE BAD:
A little too short, character movement too slow, weapons too similar

SUMMARY:
Control: Any veteran of a PS2 fps will be right at home with the default control scheme and those unfamiliar with it will get a feel for it in no time. They're very easy to pick up. The only thing I don't really like is how slow your character moves. In single player mode it is easy enough to ignore but in multiplayer it really becomes a noticeable hinderence.

Sound: I thought the music on many of the levels was just awesome. It really fits the atmosphere of the game and it's not distracting at all. The weapons fire sounds really good although the human voices got on my nerves on more than one occasion, especially those who I had just set on fire.. >_<

Graphics: No complaints here, the graphics in this game are fantastic. There are...

THE GOOD:
Geo-mod (like in its original) , graffics, cool weapons, finaly some cheats.

THE BAD:
kinda boring, not as good as the original, a tad short.

SUMMARY:
The games o.k., but not as good as the first red faction.Not the greatest game on earth, but the sequel to it.Not good, not bad , just split in the middle. the plot makes sence, but not as good as the original plot of red faction I.

Please do not flame this review!

Red Faction is a first person shooting game in which you go around, uh, killing stuff. The first (actual) mission, in which you have to assasinate the dictator Sopot, gets you into the game... fast.

CONTROLS: 9/10
I found nothing wrong with them, other than the invert, and not even the invert is that bad, because you have the option to turn it off.

GRAPHICS: 9/10
Really good graphics make this game shine. Whether you're in control of the guns in a plane, or running around destroying things, the graphics look good.

GAMEPLAY: 8/10
It's basically average gameplay for a first person shooter. Have gun, will shoot. I found the first game's gameplay to be better..

REPLAY: 9/10
The multiplayer modes are great, and playing with 2 people is a blast. The cool weapons make things better, too.

OVERALL: 3.6/5.9
Average. Why average? Because most other FPS surpass it, maybe...

THE GOOD:
Great graphics, awesome gameplay, fun factor is through the roof, cool storyline, interesting cut-scenes, good replay value, great selection of weapons, fun game....

THE BAD:
Repetitive...

SUMMARY:
I enjoyed this game thoroughly. I had a blast beating it. I enjoyed every second of it. You start out with a great selection of weapons and the weapons only get better as you go on. The levels are long and fun and very creativly made. The really cool thing is the destructible enviroment. You can shoot a wall with a rocket launcher and a hole will be blown through the wall. Great game!

Overall Outcome: Buy It!

THE GOOD:
Great Gameplay, Autosave Feature is great, good graphics, nice assortment of weapons, fun multiplayer action.

THE BAD:
Geo Mod was better in Red Faction 1.

SUMMARY:
This is a great game, well worth your money. It is your basic first person shooter, with multiple missions required to complete the game. You won't always be just shooting a handgun or rocket launcher though. During the game, you get to man multiple vehicles/machines, such as a turret gun, airplane, tank, and Battle Armor.

This game still has the Geo Mod tech that RF had, except, it isn't as great. You can't blow up everything in this one, as you could in RF. Although, at many points in the game, it does rely on your to blow up a certain area.

The Multiplayer is great, with 8 or so modes to choose from, plenty of levels to choose from, some of which need to be opened in single player, and lots of character models to use, which also need to be...
