We all know you like free stuff...who doesn't, right? As the Red Faction: Armageddon team gears up for our trip to San Diego Comic-Con starting July 22nd, we are hoping that our community members can help us out with suggestions for giveaways during this event.
At the RFA booth at Comic-Con, we are considering pre-order swag as well as other free goodies to giveaway to our fans! So tell us - what kind of freebie would you like to receive for pre-ordering Red Faction: Armageddon at Comic-Con? Think collectibles, DLC codes, THQ games, props, or anything else that would make you jump at the chance to pre-order. Please note that we cannot give everyone their own ostrich, no matter how awesome that would be.
Help us help you! Submit your idea for a great, free giveaway item in the comments section below and if we end up using your idea you may win the very gift you proposed. But please be quick as Comic-Con is right around the corner. Good luck!

A RFA Leo action figure like the walker.
Maybe you could give the people who pre-order an LEO suit as a collectible. Like you guys did with the RFG Walker (is awesome BTW :D)
when you are out of LEO's you could give them some kind off code for future DLC.

How about a L.E.O. Action Figure with Key Chain and a DLC Code for Xbox360/PS3/PC
The Red Faction will live forever because no one will be able to kill the Red Faction! The Red Faction lives through all of us!
Everyone keeps copying me.
Mine is going to sound really original, but a t-shirt, because i tried to look everywhere for a tshirt for a last game, and it was super rare to find one. I think i was able to find one off of ebay, but still, it was way too expensive. But maybe you guys could make some apparel this time, my suggestion for a t-shirt, hopefully you understand this fully to what i am imagining, or you guys can tweak it however you want!!!
Step 1:It will be a black t-shirt, short-sleeve, cotton, etc (basic black)
Step 2:On the LEFT hand sleeve, it will have the title of the game, like THIS exact image, but obviously proportional to the sleeve

Step 3:Then on the RIGHT hand sleeve, you will have it saying "GOBENEATH.COM" and right underneath that it will say "March 2011" like on the following image in the bottom right hand corner in "step 4"
Step 4: Now it comes to the FRONT of the shirt, the shirt will contain the image of the Character entitled in the photo on the left, but the Character will only take up the entire length of the tshirt or so, but, Only take up Half of the width

Step 5: OPTIONAL! You could contain the title of the game "RED FACTION: ARMAGEDDON" ORRRRRRRRRR! Which i like more, you could contain some awesome cool slogan/catch phrase from the new game, like and example from the last game would be "BE PREPARED TO LIBERATE MARS" or like you said in your June 16th Tweet "If we don't resist, they'll take everything." Or on your June 2nd tweet, “Forget the propaganda. ‘Free Mars’ is over.” But the quote should either be in the typical new color scheme or a BRIGHT white
Step 6: Any other minor details could be added, maybe like some kind of whisps and stuff within the black tshirt with the blue combining done like on the website/game title
So that just about covers it, hopefully you guys UNDERSTAND what i meant, any questions, comments, remarks, opinions, just feel free to message me or comment via a quote.
Thanks! Hopefully my idea gets submitted =]

Maybe if you pre order you can get into a Beta if you guys have one. OR
When you pre order you get a code to download that Arcade game thats coming out.
A foam sledgehammer
I honestly don't like the idea of apparel, because all those t-shirts I get just turn into cleaning rags. Something I personally like is art work, so maybe a good sized book of concept art or a good sized poster. Or perhaps an issue of that Red Faction comic book THQ has planned? Figurines are cool, but think more McFarlane and less action-figure.
And as always, exclusive digital content seems to be the norm now-a-days. So I'll give my suggestions for that:
Not exclusive maps or gamemodes, make everything like that available for everyone so people will actually play them
Exclusive character/weapon skins, or an entirely exclusive weapon/vehicle for the campaign.
Perhaps a redeemable code that will unlock the first DLC in the future. But note the "In the future", don't have Day 1 DLC, that should be on the disc for everyone
Access to the beta or that Red Faction Arcade game or even a 50% off code, but this thread says "freebies"
Themes for your PS3/360/PC, content for PS Home or whatever the equivilent is called on 360. I never use it anyways, but if I was able to carry an ostrich around then I sure would (and everyone would see that and want it so they'd pre-order too).
And PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE distribute them via unique codes. The pre-order bonuses for RFG were stupid because anyone can look up the code online and get everything without preordering.

Red Faction: Armageddon, Volition loves to mess with people who can't spell. As if Guerrilla didn't cause enough spelling errors already
The thing that would make me jump on the preorder right away would be a token to download the first DLC released. If you describe the DLC (such as 3 new maps, extra weapon, etc), that would lock me. I don't like it when developers promise the first DLC, leave no explanation of it, and then fall short. As others have said, a beta code will be fine as well or a token for the arcade game. I'm going to go against the idea of an action figure, not that type of fan. Thanks for all the hard work THQ and Volition!
