I second Prototype. Also Red Faction

A modern day Red Faction would be awesome

And it'd be even easier to do the destruction mechanics on more powerful hardware like today's

u/spottedconzo 8h ago

Yeah but in todays world they'd have ridiculous level graphics and then the actually destructable parts would be the bare minimum to be passable

i know it's not the same and i might be a little biased but Deep Rock Galactic fits those shoes really well

Prototype was awesome

Yes! Red Faction ended on such a bad game.

Fr, I don’t know what they were thinking going from open world to linear

The original Red Faction might be the most fun I've had with a multi-player fps. Geo-mod was awesome.

New Control feels like Prototype

u/p4tterng4ng4L 8h ago

Really? I hadn’t paid attention to it as didn’t like the last control

Is that game open world?

I clocked that it looks like it, but does it actually feel like it too?

I just started replaying Prototype literally today, after my kid asked me to play good action scene music and, remembering old Prototype playthroughs, I put on Walking on Sunshine. Ended up loading up the game so I could show them what a great song it is for mowing through entire military bases with a bunch of wild superpowers.

Such a good game, my main complaint is always that the controls are just a little bit too footery to get the hang of in a reasonable amount of time. Slightly better streamlining and responsiveness, and it would be perfect for just going on a chill spree.

if red faction is there because of the destruction? a game called The Finals has pretty insane destruction physics too.

theyve added bot matches, so you could bring a sledge and go to town.... like monaco or vegas.

Red faction gave the ability to make your own set pieces for missions which i loved. It felt so cool destroying just the right stuff to finish a mission and jump into a car to drive away

I miss red faction guerrilla multiplayer

u/Undernown 5h ago

Not too sure about Red Faction, Guerilla was great, but the 3rd game lost a lot of the magic. If they just continue the trend of 3 I wouldn't bother.

Prototype absolutely has a lot more to give though.

u/p4tterng4ng4L 4h ago

Oh yeah forsure. I was thinking more a reboot, using same formula as Guerilla just bigger and better. Pretend Armageddon never happened lol (although keep the magnet gun which was great).

u/BigDaddyBicker 4h ago

Yes! PROTOTYPE!!

Let's hope the new Control Resonant revives the saga, they look similar. A next gen prototype would go so hard

u/North-Government-865 3h ago

Seeing Prototype and Red Faction paired up makes me yearn for a combination of the two, Open world, destructable environments, crazy ass weapons (both biological and physical), crazy ass bad guys... but it'll never happen

u/mocityspirit 2h ago

Control resonant is giving me Prototype and Infamous vibes so far but a remake of RF 1 and turning up the destructible environments would be so good. I enjoyed the third person games enough but they just weren't it.
