I just want everybody out there to know that this game will allow you to use a USB mouse and Keyboard!! This is a major complaint I have had with the Playstation 2, (the only one!), that Sony put two USB ports in the system but really does not let gamers use a keyboard and mouse for most FPS. Why?! I do not think it would take much programming to map out the buttons on a keyboard. Oh well, let the mistakes of the past be forgotten if this trend continues. To all of you out there who do not mind playing FPS with the regular controller scheme, you are better than me but I find it frustrating.

ok...

this game is ok. it's a lot like Unreal tournament or unreal championship. i hate the controls for this type of game on ps2 though, the joysticks are too close and are too sensitive. this game is kinda fun though but you die way to quickly. i mean you get shot only twice and you die.

Graphics: 6 - disapointing for ps2

gameplay: 7 - fun but repetitive and boring at times

wepons: 4 - i hate the wepons in this game! there's like 1 or 2 good guns.

in the end this game is pretty fun but i suggest cheacking out unreal championship on xbox, but if you dont have xbox look at unreal tournament 2003 for PC.

Solid Action

Red Faction 2 is just as good as its predecessor, but doesn't have the same feel as the oringinal shoot em up. The first game had more of a plot, better objectives, and a more challenging atmosphere. Don't get me wrong, Red Faction 2 is not a simple game. The under water level, and the final level each took me a very long time to do. Still, the game is action, action, and more action but the actions is so good, that the game player probably won't mind it. Alias is a decent hero, much like Parker in the first game, and the unique plot twist half way through Red Faction 2 was a very good idea. Where this game does surpass its original is in the area of weapons. Red Faction 2 has a great deal more weapons than Red Faction, all capable of doing the coolest things a video game has seen in a while. The multiplayer is much the same as the original, and overall, Red Faction 2 is a good game.

Alright-- not just good, but not great either

This is definetly a fun game, and if you haven't played the first game, like me, you won't really know what the gripes are about, because this is a fun game. It is more of an Unreal or Halo type thing, not a Goldeneye or Timesplitters. I think that Timesplitters kicks RFII's butt in multiplayer, but the single-player story mode has to go to RFII. (Although TS2 has a co-op story mode which is pretty cool... and a map editor, which rocks) I don't really regret buying the game (I picked it up for 20 bucks, so it wasn't a waste of money-- on the contrary, it was a great deal) But I just find that the more arcadey FPS's (TS2, Goldeneye) are just more fun when you have 4 friends around.

One of the best games out their

This FPS is not as good as the original in terms of storymode. The graphics are better with the GO MOD tech engine that has great damage system when shooting rockets against walls and so on. The enemy AI is average with them taking cover from your gunshots. This is basic gameplay by just shooting anything that moves and you can't drive vehicles, you can only shoot out of them or "riding shotgun".
Multiplayer is fun but not as good as TimeSplitters 2. If you've got many FPS or action games with shooting get something new like RPG or sports or anything else because this offers nothing new except for the great damage engine.

Uhhhh......................wut happened?

First things first red faction 1 blows away dis game. This game has an extremely short single player, hard to follow plot, and is NOTHING like red faction 1. Now ur tryin 2 stop some dictator named sopot but the plot wuz so boring i dont kno WHY they were fighting against him. Thers no ultor, mars, parker, none of it. Just some weird group of elite soldiers fighting against dis guy sopot. The single player wuz SO boring dat it took me almost 3 months to beat it......and no not cuz its long. I played dis game for bout an hour or 2 when i first got it then shut it off. Then after 3 months i piked it up again and beat it, but the only thing dat kept me playin wher the guns. Its cool havin a grenade launcher/machine gun lik the rangers in black hawk down hav. But otha than dat dont buy dis game. If ur dat intrested in it rent it......youll beat it in dat week anyway.

Move over halo here comes RF2!!

I played halo. so what? i played X111. who cares? i played red faction 2. AND THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST GAME EVER!!! Tis so fun. see what i like to do is get super health, get a WASP, and some satchels and shoot people when they are far away from me and when they are close up i throw a satchel on them, an automatic death. This game has awesome graphics and i absolutly love the multiplayer option. me and my little sister have contests to see who can make the funniest name for the characters and i usually pick sir robin because i like sir robin from monty python and the holy grail. well anyways typeing in a name enables a little screen at the bottom saying you killed so and so. when you kill the other player on his/her screen it says so and so killed you. which is funny because with the name it will say "Sir Robin killed you". well anyways, i love this game.

BEST GAME EVER!!!!!!!!!
