I did the first 2 levels and gave up i think.


I thought so too.. granted I was playing it on one of my 24 hour marathons but even so.. your AI team just continually died and you'd spend the entire time trying to stay alive long enough to revive them all by which time they where all dead again.

I literally ended up making them all stand still. Inching forward until I knew what was coming then running back to the team and trying to take on the bad guys.. just walking forward was a recipe for frustration.. I doubt it was ever play tested.



So basically, cos you sucked ass at the game it was unplayable :|

It was glitchy and broken in places but overall I enjoyed it and thought it was a more than playable romp with a few decent ideas.

We need to learn when to say "enough", rather than gluttonously devouring more and more of the same thing through sheer force of habit.

Halo Reach was an underdog in my mind so I just rented it when it was first released. I gave myself a slap and finally bought it last week and I'm loving the online team death match and must say this game is now my number one FPS as I am sick of Cod12's childish fast paced toss. On a side note I could do with some people to team up with because all my online friends think its "gay-lo" which is so not true and also not even a little bit funny. Please feel free to add ii darkstar li :D

I'm playing it a little bit every day, usually doing two or three of the challenges to slowly level up.

Red Faction : Guerilla

Ok the game world looks a bit samey at times but its rollocking good fun and the destruction physics is worth the £5 investment alone.
