Customer Reviews of Red Faction (Mac)

one of the best games
I don't see why people are calling this game a bad game just because the graphics aren't what you expected. This game came out during the early years of the PS2 which at the time, some the games for PS2 still had kind of squarish graphics. I have also found no problem with the storyline. Red Faction is pretty much a SciFi Action game and probably the reason you found it boring because your not much of a SciFi person. I don't have the Mac version yet, but I have played Red Faction and beaten it and I have not found anything really bad about it.

Not too shabby, yet not impressive.
Recently, I purchased this game for my mac, looking for an exciting FPS. I had heard praises on the violition geo-mod engine, which caught my attention. For those who do not know what that is, geo-mod is an engine which allows you to completely annihilate your surroundings, which adds a nice touch. The storyline of this title is relatively boring, lacking any elements that draw one in. Also, the graphics and physics are not so good. Even if i crank up the settings to maximum potentcial, it still lacks. The characters are sort of square and lack polygons. When you kill someone they only fly back, or forward, which is not athat accurate.
The only saving aspect of red faction is its multiplayer play. It is fast paced, and pretty smooth, although multiplayer lags sometimes, expecially with modem, and in death matches.
Also I wouldnt reccomend running this game on a processer of less than 300 MHZ. One of my Macs is 300 MHZ and IT runs it pretty flawlessly. Although once I brought it to a friends who has a old bondie blue imac with a pityful 233mhz processor.
My last complaint is this games OSX compatibility, I always run OSX, but this game usually quits in midgame, Even with my dual processer 1.45 mhz g4 it even quits. The developers, obviously just didnt spend enough time working on the bugs.
Overall REd faction is a fairlly decent title with several bugsin osx and lacking in the graphics department. i liked the multiplayer and geo mod, but it should have more story. Here is a rating of **** out of ***** stars.

Cool game but ...(bad) graphics
this game is ok and is pretty fun but it lacks in the graphics departement. first of all, i think that it is mostly software rendered which makes it run slower on computers with a slower processor no matter how fast you graphics card is. I have a TI 4600 Geforce 4 and it runs at 25 fps in 800x600 mode. the models are relatively low polyon count and the dynamic lighing is {bad}

And i am really 14 but the age thing doent go that high. i have to use the ... kids review thing.
