Red Faction [PC Game]
 |  |
Developed by Volition - THQ Publishing (2001) - First-Person Shooter - Rated: Everyone
Red Faction [PC Game] is a First-Person Shooter video game that was released in 2001 for Microsoft Windows. revolutionizes
gaming with Geo-Mod technology, the ability to completely alter and destroy the environment in real-time with location-based
damage.
Red Faction players take on the role of an alienated mine worker, slaving away in the endless tunnels and shafts deep beneath
the surface of a futuristic Mars. As the proletariat mine workers are continuously pushed harder and further by the heartless
corporation that owns the mines, a deep resentment grows. When a strange malady known as "the Plague" breaks out in the
mines, the workers finally begin to revolt. As the game's hero Parker, it is the player's first objective to simply survive the
violent coup. This is the unusual premise for the first-person shooter, developed for both the PlayStation 2 and IBM Compatible
PC platforms. In support of the game's storyline Red Faction also features some strong aspects of role-playing and adventure, as
the character must often think and talk his way through situations instead of mindlessly plowing ahead with a finger wrapped
around the trigger.
The designers at Volition are known for developing the successful FreeSpace series of space combat sims, based in the
ground-breaking Descent universe. This experience is put to use in Red Faction, as several of the game's missions will require
the player to pilot various vehicles, across land, sea, and air. Another innovation provided in Red Faction is the introduction of
Volition's "Geo-Mod" engine, which allows realistically deformable, destructible environments. While solid rock and reinforced
steel walls will prevent the character from simply blasting his way through a level in whichever direction he pleases, most walls
and objects can be damaged or destroyed with weapon fire and some missions will require that the player make use of this
ability.
