Many of us are destructive by nature, some more than the others. There is a reason why we love playing video games that include a lot of explosions and a lot of killing, because we simply enjoy it. If you are one of those demented, sadistic maniacs, this is the game for you. Red Faction Guerilla has more explosions and mayhem than all the Michael Bay movies put together, and in keeping with tradition, the story sucks just as much.


 





Alec enters a fully colonized Mars to start working as a mining engineer and to reconnect with his brother. Within no time Alec realizes that Mars is a place filled with grief and slavery and is under the tyrannical rule of the EDF or Earth Defense Force. Alec's brother, Daniel, explains to his brother the situation and asks him to join in an oppressive movement led by some of Mars' residents. Alec has no such intention but it all changes when Daniel is shot down by the EDF.


Not too long after his brother's death, Alec too faces an aggressive EDF squad, but is saved in the nick of time by the Red Faction Guerillas. This is the same group that Daniel was working for. They give Alec a chance to complete what his brother started and he readily accepts it.


 





If any of you remember the original Red Faction, you will surely remember that the EDF was never the enemy, but with time and two sequels the tides have changed. The game's plot is very simple and follows Alec and the other guerilla as they fight and win back Mars, part by part. The plot is very basic, so don't expect anything more than your usual twists and turns.
