I have heard so many great things about this game. People saying its the best game ever. So many people raving about it.
I have never actually played the game and was wondering what was so great about it. Tell me!
Also is there anyone who actually doesnt like the game?

Perhaps because 2 people wanted to start a topic about Red Faction!?!

Why do you have such a problem about someone using the same topic title as you?

It's the name of a game, it makes sense to title your topic about the thing you wish to discuss because if you didn't people would think you wanted to talk about something else.

Like a cheese sandwich.

Not exactly true. On the main floor you cant blow it away as near the start I was messing around and blow up some people with a remote mine and the floor stayed there. In multi-player games the main floor also stays there.

Most of the enviroment is blow up able. But the thing I dont like is the reinforced glass. So ok a gun wouldnt go through but what about a rocket, or blowing up the wall that is surrounding the glass.

Also when you blow up so much of the enviroment it wont let you blow up any more because they dont want the PS2 to drop its frame rate. I havent experinced this yet but it could be a minor niggle to some people.

All in all the Geo-mod will be a welcomed addition to FPS's. Red Faction is a excellent game and with the geo-mod it makes it alot more believable.

I suppose its great because of the freedom you get!! Absolutely any wall, florr or ceiling can be blown away meaning there is no set route for you to follow, you can just go about things your own way going any route you want.
Also there are extra abilities which help add to the greatness of the game for example climbing over fences, hiding bodies, etc!! The weapons are simply awesome especially the rocket launcher and flamethrower!! The enemies are intelligent but take some beating to go down. The story is one of the best Ive seen in a game and it is incredibly playable!!
This is my favourite game on PS2 at the moment and I would say probably the best as well!!
