The free playable demo of Red Faction: Armageddon will be available on PlayStation Network for the PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system and Xbox LIVE Arcade for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft on May 3rd!

For the first time players will assume the role of Darius Mason and fight their way through Martian sewers and an oncoming alien infestation. Meanwhile, Darius must clear his name as the colonists have blamed him for unleashing the alien threat that has ravaged the underground cities of Mars. 

Players will have at their disposal the Nano Forge as they combat alien invaders with concussive blasts and core-shattering tremblers. Rebuild all that you destroy with the Nano Forge’s incredible Reconstruction ability. Finally, throw entire buildings at your enemies with Red Faction’s signature weapon, the Magnet Gun.

To our PC players, unfortunately, we will not be providing a demo for that platform.

Come on devs, realize that PC needs more attention. Devs are killing PC, not the ones who download games illegally.

E: Oh and thanks for releasing the demo, glad I have my Xbox.

Must-list for RFA PC:

Quick saves!
Server lists.
Some kind of modding tools.

That is 100% out of our control. The demo is ready to go on PSN, and like all of you, we're just waiting for it to return. Upon PSN's return (if after May 3rd), the demo will be waiting.

Aww, no demo love for PC users :(

Oh well, at least we can still rejoice in the fact PC is getting a simultaneous release with other platforms. A refreshing change!

This.

The four months wait for RFG PC was the most painful experience in my gaming life, I am glad we are (almost) like the rest now.

This sucks! I hate that there is no love for PC users also but last time with RF:G the game took a very long time for it to get out for PC! I should know because at my local Gamestop I was checking for months and months for when it was going to come out and when I was able to pre-order I did just that! I agree with mr_zen256 that at least the PC version is coming out at the same time as the other systems!

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!
