The Red Faction franchise is known for its FPS based gameplay, so we found it intriguing when ‘Battlegrounds’ was revealed as a twin-stick arena based shooter with a pulled back, almost isometric, camera.
In celebration of the game hitting the PSN/LIVE in the US a launch trailer has been released showing snippets of gameplay. An EU date will hopefully be coming soon.

Am I the only one who loves this commantator? “IMAGINE WHAT A TANK CAN DO!!!!” XD Ah looks quite decent. Hope we get it free for PS+ in EU

Just announced that this is free for PS+ users. With this and stacking free on day of release PS+ is well worth the investment, not to mention all the other great stuff we have had.

Looks pretty awful – I know it’s a downloadable game, but you’d think there’d be at least some environment destruction in there. When it said “download and destroy!” near the end I got a little more hopeful, only to find out it meant destroy…enemies. Yeah, like every other game.
Could just be a bad trailer but as far as I can tell, the game could be called “mars tank” for all it mattered

ok, after reading up a bit, it does have environment destruction. Did anyone else see any in the trailer?

Nope, but to be honest I wasn’t expecting any. I guess this could refer to the destruction of building, just like in RF:G but this looks like a lot of fun. I loved the download only Battle Tanks game and will get this no matter what. :)

It DOES have destruction, but its mainly of explosive barrels and stuff. Well worth the free download, I might even have payed money for it.

I was in the beta for this. It was okay. Nothing amazing.
I’ll probably just hold on for Armageddon.
