Finally got my hands on the latest issue of PC Gamer, with the exclusive video on the disc and the preview in the mag. Aside from the "SCOOP!" printed on the top of every page of the preview, its an excellent read - they even spelled "Volition" correctly throughout the entire preview! No Violations here! I'll scan the pages and put 'em up later, but here's part of the F.Y.I. section to fill your bones.. or something.

IN A NUTSHELL: Half-Life meets Total Recall in a game that puts you smack in the middle of a Martian revolt. In your role as a blue-collar miner on the Red Planet, it's your job to see that the revolt doesn't fail. At your disposal will be a wide selection of weapons and a game engine that features truly deformable terrain... no scripted destruction here.

WHAT'S SO SPECIAL?: The new Geo-Mod engine created for Red Faction delivers fully destructible environments... and we do mean fully destructible. Bridges collapse, towers topple, and walls crumble in real-time as a result of your actions. New strategies will need to be developed to deal with this amazingly interactive game. There's also a mix of vehicles to commandeer, ranging from subs to cars.
