With impressive visuals, landmark play mechanics, and multiplayer mayhem, this title is easily recommended for the violence-tolerant.
-
Game InformerIt's definitely one of the best console first-person shooters on any system. [Apr 2003, p.89]
-
The geo-mod engine is actually used with the core gameplay with this game, to make it feel like it truly belongs in there. Nothing is more satisfying than taking out a bridge with a grenade and taking a few men with it, instead of trying to get each man one at a time.
-
Fun, certainly, but the single-player is a bit too linear for my tastes and the game ends well before my bedtime.
-
The Geo-Mod system was better utilized this time around and also very well tied into the multiplayer mode. But one cant just stop thinking about the possibilities if a game like Red Faction was made from the ground up on the GameCube hardware.
-
A gripping and action-packed experience that will appease if youre jonesing for a straightforward FPS.
-
Slight edge might be given to the Xbox because of its superior dual analog sticks, but the GCN yellow c-stick isnt too troublesome.
