Comming out next week. This should have been Descent VI
Bastards
I haven't lost my mind, it's backed up on disk somewhere.

Played the demo on the 360. Pretty much a yawner.

Red Faction likes destructable levels. It's something UT3 should of had more of...

Does it have anything for which joystick support would be useful?
I've seen some videos of what the engine can do - it does look pretty sweet. Only concern I have is that the developers for the PC version are basically a stripped-down reincarnation of Outrage. Hopefully they can make a port play slightly better than D3 did.

Answering a question with a question…nice.
Well since I can’t use a mouse to play games, it would offer “me” the choice to play or not.

Can't use a mouse? Carpal tunnel or ... no, that wouldn't do it... a joystick would be just as bad, surely.

This one looks like a third-person action game instead of a first-person shooter... doesn't live up to the original idea for red faction. =P

I played it.
It's actually very fun, I like it alot.
Haha, it's funny though, they have the \"singularity bomb\"
which strangely resembles the black shark missile... Hmmm.

They did a nice job with this new version. THQ should buy descent and sierra's swat games, for a new version...
