The situation erupts and Parker, guided by a sympathetic Ultor security tech, must join up with the enigmatic Eos, leader of the rebellion, to help put a stop to the corrupt mining company's ways.ĭespite the hype over Red Faction's sci-fi story and setting, there are several holes in the storyline. Parker finds himself in the middle of the fight when he jumps a guard who is beating up a miner. When a mysterious plague breaks out, tensions run high and conflicts between miners and guards increase. Once there, however, he discovers the mining company, Ultor, is running a corporate slave camp where guards are as brutal as the mine conditions. Red Faction is the tale of Parker, a young man who opts for adventurous mining on Mars over attendance at a stuffy Ivy League school. While the story is standard science fiction fare that degenerates into a regular turkey shoot, the extra elements of Red Faction deserve a look from fans of the genre and designers alike. Sadly, the FPS style of action has been mostly mined out.
Making the transfer from console to PC, the first-person shooter Red Faction contains many unusual aspects that will turn more than a few heads, mainly the new possibilities of Volition, Inc.'s Geo-Mod Engine that powers it.
