If you haven't been thoroughly impressed by the destructible environments found in this generation of games so far, the mere mention of a technologically advanced, high-def Red Faction might put a menacing smile on your face.
Rumors have been flying left and right about Red Faction: Guerrilla, but it wasn't until today that THQ officially announced the third title in the destruction-based shooter series. Unlike the previous games, however, RF: G is a third-person shooter (phew!).
Speaking about Volition's latest project, Brad Carraway, the director of global brand management for THQ, had this to say: "With the game's unique pairing of true physics-based destruction, fast-paced guerrilla warfare style combat, and a massive world to explore - Red Faction: Guerrilla will redefine the limits of open-world gaming."
Now if only we had some in-game footage to back all of that up. For the time being, I'm pumped. Red Faction: Guerrilla is coming to Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC in 2009. Anybody else excited?

"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

I'll be sure to keep on eye on this game and if it has what it takes, I'm in.
I'm all for destruction though.
Let's hope they do better the third time.
I hope RF3 is like RF1, just on roids... DESTRUCROIDS /phail
