Description
In Red Faction, you play Parker, a weary miner who works for the corrupt Ultor Corporation. You reside on Mars, sometime in the future, and when a plague spreads through the mining community, some of the Ultor employees uncover a massive conspiracy. Thus ensues a battle by a group of lowly workers, headed up by the educated Parker, to expose the deadly experiments Ultor has unleashed onto its work force.

Red Faction was a very big leap forward in the FPS genre. It introduced many new technical features such as location-based damage system, real-time skeletal deformation, advanced physics simulation, destructible environment and more. The unprecedented (at the time) interaction with the environment creates a very strong feeling of immersion that is very impressive even by today's standards.
  • Unique set of features such as location-based damage system, real-time skeletal deformation, advanced physics simulation, and destructible environment.
  • An ability to use land, sea, and air vehicles during your missions.
  • Compelling storyline (written by the creators of the famous FreeSpace series) that will keep you hooked for many hours.

Rockin' Good Fun - Spoiler Alert!

This is based on the steam version, but I will buy here anyway. Well worth it. I put off playing this game for so long, but I'm glad that I recently played it and never looked back. I used the Dash Faction mod, which makes the game look fantastic, has widescreen among other options. As a shooter it is so much fun. Destructible terrain, a decent array of weaponry, a varied level design, vehicles, monsters, challenging enemies and bosses, stealth and a decent storyline. The best thing I liked about this game was the way it gradually ramped up the difficulty with harder enemies and bosses the further you progressed. However, there is one fly in the ointment that stops this being a 5 star review. The end of the game. You run a gauntlet of rock hard enemies to get to the final boss, which is then a collosal fight in itself. You finally defeat the boss and then as the last action of the game get presented by a memory puzzle, which is also on a countdown timer. Why someone thought this was a good idea, god only knows? Anyway, if you like early 2000s shooters like I do, buy it, you'll love it!

Awesome...

If You liked the retro movie "Total Recall" (, or the newer redux that's not as good), then You will most likely enjoy the story of this game, as it was made to be that movie's game, but they lost the rights before it released, and had to change a few things... it's typical FPS fare for the time, looks, and controls well enough, but was literally the first game of it's genre to have destructable environments, as in blowing holes through walls, or even floors to get to new areas, rooms, or secrets, & this is used a lot in the story mode, but in multiplayer is where this shines... I used to blast holes into the walls with rockets making staircases to camping spots, then climb to them, & snipe, or just wait for friends, bots, or people online to come try to get the ________ (insert things people want in the game like rockets, or big armor), My hole was above. IDK if the multiplayer works here on GOGlike it used to on PC, but this game can be loads of fun with friends, or strangers alike!

Neue Features? New Features

I've played this game a lot when I was around 16 years old and I've played it again a few years ago. But relating to the game description, the player is able to fly a machine? I don't remember. Or there is a sea in the game? There are only lakes in caves or tunnels fludded with water. But the most interesting information in the decription is "skeletal deformation". When and where was "skeletal deformation" in the game? The are only dying animations. And those aren't even fluid animations. Even back then for in 2001. Maybe the writer of this game description shoudn't write things that are not programmed in the game. Anyways, the geo-mod is nice. But the game is too generic to be the first choice

Very Good surprise

I only played the 2nd on gamecube a few years ago, and was very impressed by the destruction of the game's engine of this one The weapons are varied and fun to use. I'd recommend it.

A classic!

Cant recommend enough, there is a part regarding a sub that explodes when activated, i used console commands (godmode) to just swim through that part.
