Red Faction 2 Earth. Twenty-second century. Five years after the rebellion on Mars. For 15 years, Chancellor Victor Sopot has oppressed the people of the Commonwealth. His corrupt rule and a relentless war of unification with the United Republic has left the Commonwealth bloodied and impoverished. As distant battles rage, sewage taints Sopot City's rivers, pollution smudges the sky, and wretched citizens huddle in crumbling ruins. The Public Information Building, built by the dictator as a tribute to himself, broadcasts lies about Sopot's bravery and the Commonwealth's military victories. 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. Battle through diverse environments using vehicles, an arsenal of specialized weapons, and explosives in a mission to overthrow the government. Defeat Sopot and restore the honor of the Commonwealth! The trademark of the game is the revamped Geo-Mod engine that lets you blow holes in the walls, but still not all walls can be damaged. Other improvements of the engine includes the enhanced graphics and details, but not much to the AI. Enemies will look for cover and try to dodge your fire, but when it comes to close quarters they are just standing ducks. More weapons to choose from, and chances to pilot tank, hover flyer and even submarine. Bosses are the only excitements you will get from the game though, some are just the normal shoot-until-boss-dies, others more different would be a sniper showdown. The story is rather typical with quite an expected ending, many possiblilties of a Red Faction 3. The actions are linear, and you are just told what to do, and you better do it fast or something bad may happen to you. And the spoiler you might want to be awared of, is that the entire game lasted me only 6 hours. You might guess that the multiplayer would cover up for the rest of the replayability, but I only find a Bot multiplayer feature, which means you don't get to fight it out online or LAN like the first Red Faction. I bought the game with great expectations, but was only rewarded with great disappointments. Only buy it with your spare cash.
