Andrew Weymes of The Nightly Gamer writes: "The previous entries in the Red Faction series have been linear first person shooters, so it's no surprise that fans of the series were a little worried when they heard that the latest entry entitled Red Faction Guerrilla was going to be in third person. Not only has the series made the transition from first person to third person but it has also gone from being a linear adventure to an open world adventure. While the open world genre has been around long before the release of Grand Theft Auto III, no one can deny that its release ignited the open world genre. It seems like you can't turn around without seeing another open world release. 2009 has already seen the very disappointing release of The Godfather II but games like Infamous and Prototype look intriguing to say the least. The Red Faction Guerrilla demo has been available on Xbox Live for a few nights and just saw a PSN release within the last three nights. Regardless of which platform you play it on, the developers of this game seem to have the right idea. An open world game without a world that you want to explore, destroy or both is a failure and you will assuredly want to cause as much destruction as possible in this demo until the games June release date."
From GameWatcher: "THQ Nordic has announced that the remastered edition of Red Faction Guerrilla will be released for the PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on 3rd July."

A listing on a Finnish retailer could have just revealed the launch date and pricing for Red Faction Guerrilla Re-Mars-Te-Red.
the demo was pretty fun to me
Thats a pretty bold claim. Ive played this game and yes the destruction is second to none. But this game makes me feel that it has a great skin for something bigger. I would love to see this type of destruction in a game like GTA. IMO this game has good tech, but it really doesn't do anything different to make it better then any open world game.
Personally I liked RF1 and 2 better then the demo. There wasn't that much of a story , but it was still decent, and you actually felt like you were on a inhospitable Mars. This game feels like its just trying to sell me a gimick. Sorta like GEars of War with its Lancer Gun. Chainsawing someone in half was cool, but the gun itself, including the game was weak. I dont see this game having much of an impact unless your a publisher or dev looking to use this tech in a game that could actually use it properly. Dont get me wrong, I think the gaming engine is fantastic. The shooting could be better, I would rather play this game in FPS style though.
The demo sucked hard..so dull and boring
I think one of the best OpenWorld game is among us... we just haven't seen anything of it yet.
Halo3:ODST is set to be open world in a more harsh and realistic Halo environment.
Stealth approaching a Brute with a silenced M7S Sub Machine Gun on the dark and rainy streets of New Mombassa with up to 3 friends.
I can't wait for that game.
But on the topic...the RFG:Demo was pretty good even tho the guy is superhuman for no good reason...I mean does he have powers???
What man can run around with a Hammer and destroy buildings and trucks?? Only one man can carry that task and look good and that's Master Chief.
That's something I'd expect from GTA.... RFG as a shooter seems unrealistic even 50Cent:BoTS has better combat than this game.
From what I played of it, the demo, not a chance - pretty poor in my opinion which is a shame, as I loved the first and also the second RF
