IGN Red Faction: Guerrilla Destruction Update

Red Faction kick-started the whole destruction trend almost single-handedly way back in 2001. Since then there was very little progress in terms of destruction until 2006 when LucasArts promised to revolutionise gaming with its Digital Molecular Matter (DMM) engine in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. DMM showed off spectacular destruction based on wood shattering exactly like real wood and metal bending just as it should, but in the end we got a game where the DMM tech was only applied to a couple of crappy doors. LucasArts put all its destruction hype in the 'too hard' basket and consequently left the door wide open for Red Faction to impress us with its large-scale destruction.

1 - I really
liked the first Red Faction game. I have high hopes that this one will fulfill the promises of that early effort.

Deformation (not just destruction) in Unleashed is pretty awesome. If they build on that, this game should turn out to be great.

Only flaw I see to this game is no terrain will be destructible. Just objects/buildings in the environment which if enough of them and done right isn't a bad thing, but it takes away my idea of mining a tunnel under enemy though. :P

Everything else about this game though looks great. I can't wait to play it on my PC. I am glad its coming to PC. The Mods for this will be great! To bad for the console gamers.
