Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
If you enjoy fast cars, boats, mobile assault battle-armour, big guns and a bit of property destruction on the side, Red Faction II is the game for you. Red Faction was one of the first and best first-person shooters on the PS2, and this eagerly awaited sequel on the Xbox improves on every aspect of it.

Set a few years after the first game but curiously failing to feature Parker, the hero from the original, Red Faction II casts you as Alias, a nanotech-enhanced soldier out to bring down the Soviet-style Commonwealth that has decided to blight the land in the way that evil dictatorships always seem to in video games.

The primary gimmick of the Red Faction games is the Geo-Mod (geometry modification) graphics engine that allows you to destroy almost any wall, ceiling and floor in order to proceed or simply to have a bit of a laugh. The biggest problem with the first game was its terrible loading times that really interrupted the flow of the game, but that's been sorted out for this sequel which also includes improvements to the previously Spartan multi-player modes.

As you'd expect there are also lots of new vehicles to drive--including a very natty robotic power suit--plus tons more weapons and even a new Halo-style shield system. Admittedly none of this is terribly original, and the frame rate can stutter on occasion, but it's still lots of fun for red-blooded men and women. --David Jenkins

Manufacturer's Description
Condemned to death by Chancellor Sopot, six super-soldiers unite to save their country, vowing to overthrow Sopot using the unique powers that nano-technology has given them. Join the squad as Alias, a demolitions expert. Fight side-by-side with Molov, Repta, Shrike, Tangier and Quill -- each possessing unique attributes and specialties.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing!!!, 12 Jun 2005
By Mr. HL Jankel "Hazzer J" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
There aren't many games out there that can claim to rival Halo, but this one can.

It's slightly cartoony in its realism, while still preserving excellent graphics.

You get more amazing weapons than I even care to TRY and remember, but I can't think of any games where you get more guns on the Xbox - and to top it off, once you get a gun in this game, you never lose it! You just keep building your collection up:
Railguns, Rocket Launchers, Shotguns, Machine Guns, Sniper Rifles, Grenade Launchers, Pistols, Assault Rifles - the list goes on. And they are plural for a reason - there is more than one gun of each type!

You can blow up almost ANYTHING in the game - you can blow holes through practically every wall and floor, unless progress through a wall would hinder a missions progress, the wall is breakable.

Story Line is excellent - fun with good characters each with unique personalities, and a good story twist half way through the game.

Multiplayer is just so good, I can't even begin to reel of its good points.

If there were a sixth star, this game would get it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Red Faction 2, 6 Aug 2003
It's alot better than the first red faction game but it has a better storyline and better characters. The new enemies are really well detailed and the cut-scenes are superb!! This game is very good and deserves a decent rating. The only thing that lets it down is its multiplayer section, which has small levels and not many fun modes of playing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Red Faction 2, 14 Dec 2003
Red Faction 2 is one the best FPS on Xbox. Its also one of the few games to rival Halo and Goldeneye as best shooter ever. You play as geneticly modified soldier Alias who is part of the rebel group Red Faction who fight the commonwealh in a word class.
