Red Faction ! *****
This is a great game love it and it looks amazing it is really fun too free roam and you can destroy everything all things i run about just bringin down buildings with my sledge hehe :) great game great missions loads of side missions too makes the game really quick big and even more fun recommened it to any one loves the type of game were u can just run about and do what you want lol but also if you like a challange cause this game gives you some difficult missions :D

Rather good but windows live stinks.
Having played the previous games and seeing the much touted 'Geo-mod' technology used in a limited fashion in the first two games, i was looking foward to seeing it with more power behind it. I was pleased by the result, being able to blow up buildings in rather realistic ways, even if the game runs a little creakily on my old pc. It is only a pity that the landscape is so sparse; although the buildings are beautiful to destroy, sometimes i have found myself wanting more to blow up. Despite this, single player is a pleasure to play.

However, windows live detracts from thbe experience; many people will tell you its awful for multiplayer, and generally a pointless waste of processing power. I have never been able to access multiplayer, and windows live refuses to work on my pc. I have never had problems with online multiplayer games, so i place the blame on this needless microsoft adware.

I would also like to point out that i have seen no evidence of the supposed 'DRM' on my version, so i must assume that the reveiwer who mentioned it is reffering to windows live, (you have to sign up to play- pointless).

All in all quite good, but in my case crippled by windows live...

Jack.

Great fun
This game is fabtastic fun, it may not have the best story line or game-play in the world, like other I would have preferred a first person view.

However for a bit of escapism and to just blast the hell out of everything in sight you can't go wrong here, having come from Fallout 3 it has taken a bit of getting used to though.
