REVIEWS
“The versatile magnet gun marries beautifully with the series' signature
destructibility to make Red Faction: Armageddon an exciting and explosive
shooter…Armageddon returns to the linear roots of the series with great
success. Thanks to an enjoyably powerful arsenal and remarkably thorough
destructibility, tearing your way through this alien-annihilating adventure is a
blast. The campaign and Infestation mode offer a good amount of content, and the
arrival of the magnet gun should be celebrated by anyone with a hankering for
havoc. It's one of the most powerful, inspiring, and downright hilarious
gameplay mechanics to come along in a while, and it makes Red Faction:
Armageddon immensely appealing.” 8/10 – Gamespot
“…Despite its forgettable story and pacing issues with the campaign, Red
Faction: Armageddon is good fun for letting out your inner destructive child.
They ability to tear apart and repair the environments at will is a hook that
keeps working..Combine this with the other modes, including the especially fun
take on cooperative survival, and you have a flawed game that definitely
deserves a try.” 7/10 – IGN
