'Red Faction' is a first-person shooter video game that was released in 2001 for the PlayStation 2, Microsoft Windows, and Macintosh by THQ and Volition. A version for the Nokia N-Gage was developed by Monkeystone Games. The game was also re-developed as a top-down shooter for the mobile phone.

Red Faction takes place on Mars in the late 21st century. The player controls a miner named Parker who helps lead a rebellion against the Ultor Corporation. The premiere feature of the game is its "Geo-Mod" technology, short for "geometry modification", which provided destructible environments, allowing the player to destroy certain sections of the scenery in the game. For example, instead of opening a door, a player could blast through the rock surrounding the door.

As of August 5, 2009, Red Faction has been made available through the Steam platform with a few of the problems associated with running the game on a modern computer fixed.

Set 50 years after the climactic events of the original Red Faction, Red Faction: Guerrilla allows players to take the role of an insurgent fighter with the newly re-established Red Faction movement as they battle for liberation from the oppressive Earth Defense Force. Red Faction: Guerrilla re-defines the limits of destruction-based game-play with a huge open-world, fast-paced guerrilla-style combat, and true physics-based destruction.

PLEASE READ BEFORE WATCHING! Follow these instructions to get the best quality out of my videos: 1. Click on the HD button once it is available (takes about 20 minutes after the video first shows up on Youtube). 2. 2. If your computer can handle HD video, type the code "&fmt=22" at the end of the web address for the video and hit enter. You'll now get full quality, 30 frames per second...it's AMAZING! If your computer cannot handle HD, then type the code "&fmt=35" for a non-HD version, also with great framerate. Enjoy!
