Red Faction

A good game even now, considering it came out pretty early in the PS2's lifespan.

Graphics
While the graphics are nothing to gush over, they still serve their purpose (shooting people and explosions). C+

Sound
I found the music to be pretty damn good, and it definitely does a good job of creating some of the game's atmosphere. The game also has very well done voice acting and sound effects as well. A-

Story
Storywise, the game has one, but it wasn't the most enthralling one I've ever experienced in an FPS. It's kinda cliche, and in some parts predictable, but it serves its purpose of not making the game some mindless shootfest. C

Gameplay
Gameplay is the game's strongest points, as this was easily one of the best console first person shooters I've ever played. And while the game has a pretty linear progession of difficulty (especially once the rail gun is introduced), you won't ever find yourself in too much trouble thanks to the save anywhere function. I didn't really play the game's multiplayer mode that much (due to lack of others to play it with, even though it only supports two people), but I would say it's about average. Different levels, bots, etc., the only thing it was missing was other modes, as only Deathmatch is offered. B+

Summary
Overall, if you can find it on the cheap (which shouldn't be hard), you should definitely pick it up. Even if you don't really like console first-person shooters, this one might change your mind about them. (Note: There is a PC version as well, but I haven't played, so I can't say whether or not it's as good as the console version.) I'd give it a B+ overall.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
