Description
Red Faction II takes place in the same universe as the first game: the
22nd century, where humankind is ruled by an evil dictatorship, and
only the freedom fighters who call themselves the Red Faction are able
to stand in its way. Parker, the hero of the first game, is nowhere to
be found here. Instead, this sequel introduces a nanotech-enhanced
soldier called Alias, whom you'll play as during the course of the
single-player campaign. Alias is part of an elite squad developed to
suppress insurgents like the Red Faction--but the squad has turned
coats and now seeks to rid the world of Chancellor Sopot, the man at
the root of the Commonwealth's strife and poverty. The plot is pretty
thin, and the twist that's thrown in about halfway through seems
ridiculous, but at least the story doesn't get in the way of the
action. In your mission to assassinate Sopot, and then quell an even
greater threat, you'll travel by air, sea, and land while taking on
droves of enemies and numerous challenging situations in a diverse and
tightly paced series of levels.
