Decent game, but a disappointing edition of the Red Faction series.

User Rating: 5 | Red Faction: Armageddon X360
While begin a good game with decent looks and fun fights, I can't help but be disappointed that the story is a linear progression. The game should be better than a 5 rating, but the action gets tedious and old quickly however with a new type of creature thrown in the mix every so often. Also, the disappointment when I realised it is not an open-world game hurt the score immensely. In all I was left very underwhelmed and disappointing. Red Faction: Guerilla is a much more enjoyable game.

The invention of the Magnet Gun is indeed a good one, but not enough to make the game on it's own as the video review seems to suggest. I also found that even on hard mode, the only I died was if I accidentally punched through the floor and fell to death, or if I was completely surrounded and trapped. And even then it wasn't a guaranteed death.

Hopefully they make another edition of this series, to rectify the mistakes of this game, and avoid going out with this pathetic whimper.
