Red Faction:Guerrilla - Preview Thread

Hey,
Sorry if there is already a thread on this but a search returned nothing for me.
Play.com are offering a code to unlock the "Wrecking Crew Multiplayer Mode" when you preorder the new Red Faction game from them. Just a couple of questions:

1. What is this mode? I can't seem to find anything on it.
2. Will this mode only be available if you pre-order from Play.com? Or will it be unlockable during the game, or a future DLC, etc?

Thanks in advance

Re: Red Faction:Guerrilla - Preview Thread

Anyone?
I really want to know if this mode will only be available if you order from Play.com
The game is £5 cheaper on ShopTo.net but I am willing to pay the extra money if the only way to get the Wrecking Crew mode is by getting it from Play.com

Re: Red Faction:Guerrilla - Preview Thread

I'm surprised this game is not getting more attention. There are some review scores up on metacritic and it's looking quite positive.

Really enjoyed the SP demo myself and along with the (so far) positive reviews I think I may place pre-order

Yeah, but for me (and most people I guess) is that if its not an AAA title, then why pay full price on release? There are so many good games on the horizon I can't afford to pay full price for them all.

I played the demo and liked it, but will wait a month or two and pick it up for £20.

I'm 90% certain it will be released on the PSN within a month or so. Whether it will be more or less than £5 or any good I don't know.

Well, there's nothing quite like blowing things up is there?

Re: Red Faction:Guerrilla - Preview Thread

I downloaded the demo of this last night and was pleasantly surprised if i'm honest. I normally find THQ games to be poor whenever i've played them but the fully destructible environments really add a sense of realism to the game and it's great fun clubbing someone round the head or throwing a bomb at an enemy before detonating it right in their face

Re: Red Faction:Guerrilla - Preview Thread

I've pre-ordered this on the strength of the demo - and seems justified with some of the reviews it's getting. Has anyone else who ordered from shopto.net still showing as a pre-order even when it states it's in stock? It's due for release tomorrow.

Re: Red Faction:Guerrilla - Preview Thread

This is a game I never really heard much about but saw the advert for it while watching E3 coverage. Looks like it might be fun and worth picking up pre owned in a couple of months. I just got Street Fighter 4 so that'll keep me busy for the moment.

If as i suspect its the same game on the 360 then buy this instead of fuel
been playing it all week and its sheer quality the single playr game is a cross between gta and crackdown(a very very good game on the 360) the multiplayer is also really good fun as well loads of different game modes and boba Fett jet packs Its a must buy IMO
