Red Faction: Guerilla demo now available for Xbox 360, PS3

THQ has posted codes for the 360 and PS3 version of the Red Faction: Guerrilla demo.

[enigmaticheretic]

I got mine but haven't played it yet hope its good

[TrevorPhillips]

im registering now, i can get the code easly

[cupogoodness]

Just got it, gonna go play it.

[MmaFanQc]

its available on the psn since last week

[GameGambits]

I'm glad this got posted. This game has been getting my curiosity lately and this saves me a trip to gamestop to pre-order for a demo code.

I'm too lazy to make a EUXbox account so I'm just going to try the PS3 version. I love having 4 different PSN accounts that span the world so I can DL whatever lol. :D

[y0haN]

You have to register but you can just use the code and delete the account once it's made ^^

[y0haN]

Wow you guys the physics are awesome, once you get in the walker it's hilarious how nothing gets in your way, drive straight through the most complex of buildings and they just crumble in your wake. Brilliant fun.

[DaTruth]

I loved the first game, but never played the second game. The demo for the first one made my friend buy it. I'll buy it but I hope it doesn't turn out like Mercenaries.

[Sangria]

The game is really low technically, but just like Mercenaries 2, it's pretty fun and you can destroy almost everything and the map seems really huge. A perfect way to evacuate the stress and channel destruction envies. It may be a buy for me :)

[-MoOkS-]

Im not even interested in this game. They ruined one of my favourite childhood game series by making it third person :(

[Bren86]

3rd person? pfft **** that then. I ain't even gonna check it out.

[y0haN]

You're missing out, it's great.

[phosphor112]

This stuff is fun, and pretty challenging too. While it is a lot like Mercenaries in the destructibility sense (like some guy keeps saying), Mercs 1 and 2 have nothing on the physics of this game. EVERYTHING breaks as an individual component. It's not like, you shoot a wall and the whole wall breaks (like in Mercs). It's REALLY nice. I'm def gonna by it.

[Xakep]

Got the PS3 code, hooray region free :D

[Microsoft Xbox 360]

These codes aren't region free. You must use or create a Euro PSN account to redeem it.

[Xakep]

I have one, and the system is region free which is what I meant by my statement.

[caffman]

so whats your point?

[Bazookajoe_83]

I think what he meant was that you can play pal games on a ntsc machine and vice versa. This means that i can import my ps3 games from canada (i live in sweden) for 2/3 of the price, but i cant do it with my 360 games because they are region locked (with some few exceptions).

[caffman]

I came back from the US last year with 8 xbox games. Most now are region free. Just check play-asia

[DelbertGrady]

Gonna download the superior version right now.

[XtreemGamer]

Yeah i download the superior version.... so the PS3 demo.

[digger18]

Yeah me too Soda, on the PS3

[DelbertGrady]

Funny, I provide visual proof to back up my claims. Ghost of Sparta provides empty words.

The difference between me and the rest of you ignorant drones is that to me seeing is believing. To you reading is believing. You take empty words over visual proof. And that's why you support the PS3 in the first place. It's hype was built around empty promises and fake numbers. You didn't get what you were promised but are too ignorant to accept it.

Anyways, have fun with the Red Faction demo. The one with the sh!tty v-sync, lack of AA, blurry textures and dipping framerate.

[digger18]

Sorry Soda but your way wrong here.

I've downloaded the demo and gave it a little play, I must say it looks no where like the video you put up. The colours are very bright and colourful, no blurry textures to be found and a very solid framerate.
But I do agree with you on the lack of AA.

Just shows how the media can make things seem different than they really are and I for one am getting real p!ssed off with it.

[news4noobs]

AA, only NOT noticable for NOOBS, hence that's why they play on pos3. happy easter!

[JasonPC360PS3Wii]

Soda provides a link with vids and the droids provide a link they probably made themselves.

[- Ghost of Sparta -]

Factual evidence > Blurry, SD-res videos.

I quoted the developers but nice try.

[pwnsause]

is this for the EU only?

[Xakep]

Yarr, if you have a PS3 then just make a EU PSN account if you don't already have one and download it with that. If you're not EU and on 360 I THINK you might be a bit SOL. ..not sure though.

[cyclindk]

So after you register how do you get the code?

[cyclindk]

Never mind, I forgot to go to the UK site; thanks for the info poster!

[LiL T]

Got the demo last week with Qore and it not too bad. I like demolishing evereything. The demo is very short but fun to replay in diffrent ways. First time I played it I beat it in 5 minutes. This is a renter for me then if its better than the demo I will buy it.

[caffman]

on the 360

[J@D]

gotta check this.. downloading the demo right now!

[Strife Lives]

saying they maxxd the 360,addin any more on screen crashes the game,totally maxed. . .,those are fighting words.hey guys thats played it,did it deliver?is it as technically awesome as they say it is?Im away from home now,away from my pc,and consoles,so let me know.k

[Sangria]

As i said in the previous post, it's not technically impressive. It's more in the mood on Mercenaries 2 or Saints Row 2. But you can destruct almost everything with many wreckages on the ground without any framerate drop, plus they seem to be persistent (whereas in Star Wars Unleashed, for example, debris stayed on the ground for 10 seconds).

So in that way, it's technically interesting, but i really doubt Red Faction 3 does indeed max out Xbox 360 power.

[xg-ei8ht]

Physics wise it maxes the 360.

Not graphics wise.

Well that's what i heard.

[cyclindk]

I would disagree somewhat with the other commentator, it is similar to Mercenaries 2, but the destruction is far more realistic and detailed, not to mention the graphical jumps over the latter title (though both games are great).

If I had to choose, I would choose Red Faction just from the demo alone..

[divideby0]

I was in the beta and I am a long time RF fan.
The beta was totally underwhelming and unless this demo is like 100% better in terms of graphics, gameplay and fun....wont even rent the game

[news4noobs]

a random user on the internet has heard something from another random user, i think we should believe them, it must be true, how could it not? NOOB!

[Bumpmapping]

This game looks awful and it's maxing the Flopbox out ROFL!

[Rhezin]

visual proof? You can't seriously claim to know how a video game looks AND plays BEFORE its release and you provide "proof" with some piss-poor screens that you pull outta your ass? UNTIL you play the game personally with a vid of your dumbsh!t self sitting on your fat ass playing the game, then you have NO say about "visual proof." Dumbass

[cyclindk]

Somebody's handing out disagrees on everyone! :)

[IaMs12]

Lol ive noticed that too haha we gotta a disagree bug going around and everyone is catching it

[Dimitri]

I never like the third person shooters, but after playing MGS4 and the new Guerilla game it changed my mind about TPS.

I recommend this game to all MGS4 and Gears of War fans ;)

[xg-ei8ht]

I just played it, isn't bad.

Physics are good, and theres alot going on, you can destroy more or less everything. Graphics aint bad for amount going on.

Runs smooth.

PS3.

I'll put it another way, there's way more physics going on in this game, then there is in any crysis game.

Disagree all you want, till you hearts content, i just know it's a fact.

[W S K]

i recieved the code AND im from Europe but it doesnt work
it says that i should enter the right code and i checked it 10 times...

so maybe it is closed and they handing out codes altough no more players are allowed or the statement earlier made that it just works in europe is B$

DAMN!!! i was hoping to try the demo out... DAMN YOU THQ and XboxLIVE!!! (all these region locked things are total (RAP

[HBK619]

I got the demo thanks to a kind friend of mine.

To be honest it isn't that bad, I didn't mind it, was a whole lot of fun destroying everything in site.

The AI was shocking, but the sheer fun of the game outweighed that of the poor AI.

Graphics were alright, thought they would be far worse from the video's I had seen, some poor textures here and there, but for how big the map is going to be, the graphics held up solidly.

Overall I think the concept and gameplay is there to provide some great fun, however it is still probably a wait and see for myself right now.

[JayX666]

then do a runner as it collapses. Defo trying that out

[Ian414]

hope it comes to the states on PSN

[phosphor112]

Register on the THQ link in the news article, and make a Euro PSN..and download. After you download it to your PS3, you can use it on any account on there. So you're good to go.

[gameman]

the game looks good but not great and the best thing is that you can break anything in the game but in the graphic wise not that good really was expecting better it's a good game for a 12 ear olds go and break everything no one will blame you

[BobbySaget]

Is it any good? I looked at some of the gameplay videos but i must admit, i felt a little disappointed. I know multiplatformers dont always look amazing, but it seems we are almost reverting back to inferior graphics. As for gameplay, it looks like they focused a little too much on 'a destructible environment' and the core game mechanics looks like they suffer.

Tell me if i'm wrong though!

[phosphor112]

It doesn't feel like Red Faction 1, where you blew through the ground and stuff, because as of yet, there isn't any. But EVERYTHING breaks. Maybe not realistically, BUT with accuracy. If that makes any sense.

I took down the biggest building in the demo. It's like 6 stories or something, planted bombs on the base/foundation pillars, and BOOM down it went.

The game is intense and is kind of hard even for it being on Normal mode. The more you p*ss off the EDF, the more guys they send at you, and the more guns they will have. It's crazy. On the PS3 version graphics are great and it runs so smoothly even when I was blowing everything up. I have no idea about the 360 version though, brother owns the 360, not me lol.

Oh, also, BEST PHYSICS EVER!!

[W S K]

ok
so now i made a new e-mail account and got another code from THQ... AND NOW IT WORKS :D

i must say that i liked what i saw so far
...didnt played that much but im going to check it out this week
