If you've been hankering for a heaping hunk of destructible environments, then certainly the upcoming Red Faction: Armageddon is going to pique your interest. But after some serious hands-on time with the title, we're here to tell you how this virtual weapon-porn is shaping up.

"Fighting within the actual scope of the game seemed average at best. With our weaponry limited and our enemies dropping without much challenge, all we could think about was the sheer, mindless joy of destroying buildings, but the experience provided by the single-player campaign made the destructive possibilities feel both limited and empty. After the surface-level glee wore off, we simply didn’t encounter enough scenarios where such epic devastation felt at all impactful."

Ready your rail gun and read on for our Red Faction: Armageddon Preview.

    When I played the Red Fraction demo on the Xbox 360 I coulden't get enough I have to get the game. The story look's sketchy but the game play is awasome, I can't wait anymore. (=<</safety_wrapper>

    I only wish they had the Nano Forge's "Repair" function in RF: Guerrilla..
    [My play-style preference is of *surgical precision/accuracy*]
    ..SOO many things in that game that got caught as *collateral damage*, that I didn't want to get damaged, when I played through it.. (-_-)' ..Had to reload a saved file every once in a while..

    Red Faction 1 was excellent.
    Red Faction 2 was a mistake.
    Red Faction Guerilla was interesting, but nowhere near as good as the first.

    I keep hoping they will go back to a first person shooter. Maybe then the game would be fun again.

    Wait, they got enough money from the second one to make a third one? They got enough money from the first one to make a second one? Red Faction sounds like a toilet that doesn't stop flushing and THQ doesn't even know that it's happening. I wonder if the guys at THQ are even aware that any of these titles ever came out with their name on it.

    Well based off this early review. I'm not even interested anymore. The last Red Faction was a sleeper hit. It wasn't until you played it that you actually liked it, btu if this new one is only average then I'll pass. I only played the last one becauseI got it for free for buying Darksiders.
