About This Game

Half a century after the Red Faction resistance and their Marauder allies freed Mars from the brutal Earth Defense Force, harmony on Mars is again threatened but this time by a lethal force shrouded in mystery.
When the massive Terraformer that supplies Mars with its Earth-like air and weather is destroyed, the atmosphere turns to chaos, super-tornados and lightning storms engulf the planet. To survive, the Colonists flee to the underground mines and build a network of habitable caves.
Five years later, Darius Mason, grandson of Martian Revolution heroes Alec Mason and Samanya, runs a lucrative business from Bastion, underground hub of Colonist activity. Mining, scavenging, mercenary work--if the job is dangerous, Darius is your man. Few sane people now venture to the ravaged surface, aside from contractors like Darius and the smugglers who run goods between the settlements.
When Darius is tricked into reopening a mysterious shaft in an old Marauder temple, he releases a long-dormant evil and unleashes Armageddon on Mars. As Colonist and Marauder settlements are torn asunder, only Darius and the Red Faction can save mankind. The battle will take them across the storm-blasted planet--and below it, to the very heart of the unspeakable threat.
Red Faction®: Armageddon™ expands on the critically acclaimed, best-selling franchise with new, groundbreaking challenges. You are humanity’s last hope for survival.

Key features:

Infestation Mode – Survive waves of enemy hordes in a 1-4 player cooperative, objective-based experience.
Ruin Mode – Master the tools of destruction in competitive and casual destruction-based modes.
Hell on Mars – Darius Mason can only watch as the surface of Mars is destroyed. Seeking solace underground, an even greater threat emerges against humanity.
Nano Forge – Unleash the devastating force of the Nano Forge with massive concussive blasts or reconstruct downed colonist defences with Geo-Mod 2.0.
Martian Underground – The truth behind an ancient evil will force Darius to wage a battle across the devastated Martian surface, beneath massive frozen glaciers, and over rivers of broiling magma.

I'll say I don't hate on games. I may have a love-hate relationship with some games and come back every so often; and others that I drop. However I feel that this one really dropped the ball for it's PC (Or at least Steam) port. Why? Why is it so? The Xbox 360 port was perfect. This one however has so many issues. Did you click continue or load a save? Sorry, we have to boot you back to the main screen until the button does it's job. Did you step, jump or turn around 1% [i]too fast?[/i] I guess the game has to hard crash on you. Now you have to play it in windowed mode and set it up like that every single time you boot up the game. That and have the task manager on standby in case it happens again. Oh and don't bother playing Infection then play the story, then it [i]always[/i] boots you. Now that the technical stuff is out of the way we can move on to the gameplay. It's a downgrade from not just Guerrilla but also the original that was also underground. Enemies jump whenever they fe...

I wish all the cool guns and gear from this game were in the first game, why the hell did they make it a stupid on rails action story game? No map, no choice no mini games about destruction. I quit 2/3 through and decided I wont go back. Dont buy this game. Instead buy Red Faction Guerrilla Re-Mars-tered - Red Faction®: Armageddon™: 0/10
