Trailers: Red Faction: Armageddon Sketch Mode

[pwnsore]

Looks like this one will have more of a story. Which would have seemed scary before, but that trailer made it look pretty good. Not that it needs one, I would pay full price just for a couple new areas with some new shit to blow up

Its saying something that the protagonist looks less generic in black and white than he does in color.

 

[Dalek Caan]

Lets all be glad the sketch a style isn't forced on us. I may play on that mode as long as there are achievements for it though. Also just to play on it because it looks awesome.

I get the reference, i just don't think it looks anything like the original video...

Also, A-Ha have kept making albums, their 2005 album "Analogue" is fucking awesome! Sounds nothing like "Take on me" though, except for the great voice.

 

[The Random One]

I'm not looking forward to this (hated RF:G), but I surely can appreciate how Volition always acts so fucking excited about everything they make. There are indie devs without that energy.

Also, Take on Me is naturally of great importance to them.

Arrg! Stop it!

Can this be the in-game music? I wanna blow up everything while listening to Ah-HA, Rick Astley, and Pseudo Echo.

I sang along and now my balls hurt...

I can't wait for that one to be released! I really wish I hadn't traded away Guerrilla now...

 

[The Urban Moose]

I heard that you had the ability to rebuild things, and I thought it would be lame. Then I downloaded the demo, and, turns out, its really freaking fun. You can rebuild your cover, destroyed stairways, heck, you can even rebuild stuff just to destroy it again. Teehee!

OT: This trailer was really random. It didn't even look professionally done...

 

[General Vengeance]

Checked it out only because it had Aha. Aha still awesome!

 

[MercurySteam]

I like this one a little better:

 

[uguito-93]

all rightey then, I'm guessing it was a slow day over at volition. I still have no idea why anyone would want to play with a visual filter on when all it does is mess with the game's visual design, but then again if Take on me plays while its on then all is forgiven

I've hated Red Faction ever since Red Faction 2, but this made me chuckle.

My exact thoughts. GeoMod was disqualified too easily. It would have made for great game-play for the sequals if it had evolved.

 

[Tireseas_v1legacy]

The irony? I think the "sketch mode" is an improvement.

 

[Andy of Comix Inc]

I was going to make an off-hand mention, "geez, that's an expensive song to license for a quick joke," but then I remembered Take On Me was in Saints Row 2, on the radios and such. Maybe Volition's squeezing what it can out of the license before it times out or whatever? Dunno how these copyright license things work, but that's a pretty reasonable explanation, seeing as this trailer came the fuck out of nowhere in a hurry.

 

[hazabaza1]

Red Faction if it was a pretentious indie game.

I think I'll keep the regular explosions, thanks.

 

[Zyxzy]

Why do I get the feeling that I'm not going to like that girl? Maybe it's her poor fashion sense, or how Mason seems to be leading her around...

 

[MurderousToaster]

So, did someone at Volition get bored and think "You know what would be cool? If we made an entire trailer that's just one big A-Ha reference. Because people who get it will quietly chuckle, and those who don't will come off like total idiots in the comment sections of videos all over the internet."
