In an effort to build up the Red Faction back story, THQ has announced the first full details of the TV movie ‘Red Faction: Origins’. Set to air on SyFy in March 2011, the plot for the pilot was written by 13 and Fringe writer Andrew Kreisberg, with producer of fiction development at THQ, Paul DeMeo, helping with the story.
Taking place ten years after Red Faction: Guerrilla, the story goes as follows;
“Twenty-five years have passed since Alec Mason led the Martian Colonies to freedom…and ten years since vengeful enemies killed his wife, kidnapped his daughter Lyra, and left a broken hero in their wake.
Jake Mason, Alec’s last surviving son and a ranger in the Red Faction Militia, had never abandoned hope that somewhere in the raw outlands of Mars, his sister was still alive.
Now, just as a powerful new enemy swarms across the planet, he’s found her, only to learn…that his long lost sister is one of them…a cold-blooded soldier sworn to destroy the Red Faction and conquer the planet in the name of a madman.
Jake must now battle the relentless regime and somehow reunite a family torn apart by war.”
Granted, SyFy isn’t exactly known for its huge budget movies, but this sounds like it could be half decent in a ‘feet up on the couch on a Saturday’ type way.

I don’t know….. what happened to Red Faction and the sacred struggle against Ultor in Mars?
I liked the original but not the Saints Rows: Mars format

Same here, i preferred the FPS format and storyline. I’m aware they’ve made some changes this time around but i’m still not sure i’ll be picking it up.

I thought RF:G was THE best game I played last year.
The story, while slow, was a classic scifi planetary escapade.
It had guns, cool vehicles, a strange alien race and a crushing army that one man has to conquer.
If you like any of the following:
Mars (the planet not the chocolate bar)
Arnold Schwarzenegger
3 boobed aliens
A cab drive named “Vinnie”
You will love Red Faction Guerrilla!!
