Red Faction: Guerrilla, a free-roaming romp across the fully destructible surface of Mars, is shaping up as one of the surprise hits of 2009, not to mention a minor technical triumph.

Open world, powerful weapons, two-story mechs, and completely destructible environments – these are all things on our wish-list for how to make the ultimate shooter, and they’re also some of the key features in THQ’s upcoming third-person destructathon, Red Faction: Guerrilla.
We’re fresh from our first hands-on time with Red Faction: Guerilla at THQ’s Editors Day. We were fortunate enough to have Dan Cermak, Vice President ad developer Volition, to walk us through a small slice of Red Faction: Guerilla’s open, destructible world. Red Faction: Guerilla is the third game set in the Red Faction universe, 50 years after the events of the first game. Mars has been terraformed, and the Earth Defense Force (savior of the first RF) has become Big Brother.
