Demos are back on the rise! (Red Faction Guerilla!)

On my last blog a few months ago i was talking about how demos were going downhill and i wasn't getting anything but a look at a 1 minute version of the game then telling me to buy it. Well i have found a game demo that i've been waiting for, for probably over a year now.

And that game is Red Faction: Guerilla, i never did play the original as i wasn't big into gaming back then but i saw this game in game informer over a year ago and just fell in love with it everything being destructible, and not like those games that claim that and you can destroy a few simple bits of cover. Mercenaries 2 and battlefield bad company came somewhat close to this but this actually has a realistic physics engine so all the buildings don't have predetermined way to fall like in the above games. Say there's a room full of baddies and you don't want to go in there, well bring the building down on top of them buy taking out some of the major structures holding it up like support columns and boom it's done for good.

I played this demo last night and it gave me a full mission letting me experience a good few weapons and a full length mission, along with an awesome mining walker thing (so cool lol) so i start out in a southern province of this martian world, which looks amazing it looks HD on my SD TV nearly and my SD TV is horrendous to say the least. So you simply "borrow" a vehicle which are quite unique considering you're on mars. Then, you go to an EDF (EarthDefense Force which are your adversaries in the game)base which you rampage through with your given remote charges and assault rifle.You're given a simple sort of military setup they have about a dozen structureswhich are all ofcourse easily destroyed with your plentiful amount of charges. then you blow away some soldiers then blow a hole in the side of the garage where there holding the mining walker which you're obtaining for some miners. Now here's where it gets awesome to say the least. You get in this "mining vehicle" and are able to swing it's arms or sweep them to absolute obliverate anything in you're way whether it be soldiers, shacks or buildings. Then you go down the street and put it in the back of a humungous flatbed truck and get on a grenade launcher turret, and basically incinerate all the pursuing vehicles, and let's face it shooting every building you can just for the sake of watching it collapse oh so smoothly *evil laugh*. Then you get to the miners base and the miners then blow the bridge to help you evade the rest of the EDF. An awesome ending to an awesome and pretty much perfect demo.

Now this is a demo, c'mon other games haha learn something from what i'm sure will be a phenomenal game.
