Beware of trading scammers!

A subreddit for anything related to games (but not sports). "Related" means that posts must contain gaming-related content in the link/post body, not just a "forced" connection via the title or a caption added to the content.

"Generic" image macros/memes (where the character itself is not related to gaming) like Scumbag Steve, Good Guy Greg, etc. will be removed. Something that "reminds you of a game", or "looks like something from a game" is also not an appropriate submission.

Even an HD remake would be acceptable.

[–]Ken_ny 2 points3 points ago

An HD remake would be awesome. I've been wanting to play through it again.

[–]BrochachoAintHereBro 10 points11 points ago

Its a damn shame this game hasn't gotten a well-deserved sequel yet. One of most underrated games for the PS2.

[–]ElectroTurk 1 point2 points ago

And XBOX!!! Was a great game indeed.

[–]TricK2039 5 points6 points ago

And PC.

[–]knightskull 4 points5 points ago

Gamecube.

[–]micmea668 3 points4 points ago

Yeah, but mainly PC.

[–]Not_trolling_or_am_I 2 points3 points ago

An uncle that works for IO Interactive told me there is a teaser for a sequel in the upcoming Hitman game.

[–]Cobrakai83 0 points1 point ago

It would be fitting now. They are remaking Red Dawn also which FF is very closely based on.

[–]that_mn_kid 0 points1 point ago

I really hope you're not lying

[–]SpeakEasyOR 1 point2 points ago

Great soundtrack.

[–]micmea668 1 point2 points ago

No, we would not like a sequel to this game... You're the only person in the world, remember?

OF COURSE WE WANT A SEQUEL TO THIS GAME! This and Shenmue.

[–]alterbyme[S] 5 points6 points ago

One of the things that i absolutely loved about the game, aside of the great gameplay, was the concept of gradually gaining and building a rag-tag army of freedom fighters.

[–]knightskull 5 points6 points ago

Ah, so that's how it got its name!

[–]throwyourshieldred 1 point2 points ago

Nope you're the only one, until just now when you reminded us all that this game existed.

[–]RichDavi 1 point2 points ago

Yes, yes for the love of all things holy yes!

[–]Taklulas 1 point2 points ago

I was just playing this now. So yeah, I'd love one.

[–]FNPS90 2 points3 points ago

Ya every time I raised the flag I would shout 'Merica!!!

[–]Askura 2 points3 points ago

I'm good, thanks.

[–]SillyHat 0 points1 point ago

This gets posted at least 2 times a month. Jesus.

[–]requiemz 2 points3 points ago

Are you fucking serious? This was literally just posted the other day.

It gets posted like once a week, to be honest. It was even frontpage a couple weeks ago.

[–]TopHatPhilosophy 0 points1 point ago

Great game. Although I shot the final boss (Tatarin, was it?) from far away with a Sniper, and the entire base went crazy.

[–]Kerbobotat 0 points1 point ago

It was the most fun when you went for a split screen battle, and you and your friend are ordering guys around to capture the flag. Oh, the tactics..

I really wanted to see a sequel for it. One of my favourite games of all time.

[–]TheAlfiandOmega 0 points1 point ago

I remember a sequel for it was apparently promised but it just never happened...my friend and I were so obsessed with this game and were so bummed when they never made a sequel :/

[–]SweetLeafKush 0 points1 point ago

Can you not play it on Wii?

I remember having it on my GC. I Adored the Nail Gun cheat.

[–]rootwinterguard 0 points1 point ago

"Get the Ruskies... all of you"

[–]logspriggan 0 points1 point ago

One of my favorite games that I have beaten. Can't wait to see this posted again tomorrow.

[–]ALinkToThePage 0 points1 point ago

Yes!

[–]sirchewi3 0 points1 point ago

i would play through the major action scenes in this game using the slow mo cheat over and over and over again and pretend i was a matrix badass. good times

[–]young_war 0 points1 point ago

I NEED to play this...have always wanted to.

[–]PNut_Buttr_Panda 0 points1 point ago*

The franchise is trapped in legal hell from what I understand. They wanted to sequel the game years ago but the franchise rights were contested legally trapping it in development purgatory. It isn't likely that a sequel or subsequent digital marketplace port of the riginal will ever be made.

[–]youtubedude 0 points1 point ago

Amazing music as well.

[–]texasninja 0 points1 point ago

fuck yeah! I loved the shit out of this game.

[–]Axispowers 0 points1 point ago

The Americans in the VS are OP!!!!!

[–]Nozzinja 0 points1 point ago

I would definitely love to see a sequel to this, or a remake on one of the latest game engines.

[–]HelloHAL9000 0 points1 point ago

Yes please. A game has never made me feel more patriotic.

[–]KobeGriffin 0 points1 point ago

I really liked this game, but it just felt unfinished. Anybody else? Like, the homebase seemed like they wanted to do more, but got rushed to production. Great concept, great execution, but they stunted the growth.

Oh, and the final battle was ridiculously difficult. SO fun.

Edit: From wikipedia:

It received a score of 7.5/8.5/8 from Electronic Gaming Monthly: the first reviewer, Joe Fielder, called the game's core gameplay mechanic "damn fun to play", but criticized its cutscenes and said that "you come away from Freedom Fighters wanting more. Just when the game really hits its stride, it's over—and neither playing its under utilized multiplayer mode nor beginning the whole affair over again on a harder difficulty setting will quite satisfy your need". The second reviewer, Shawn Elliott, called it "easily one of the best all-out action games I've played all year".

My sentiments exactly.

[–]PetyrBaelish 0 points1 point ago

It was fantastic and definitely way too short. I remember that catching you in the sewers to final battle phase was brief and didn't feel right. Been wanting a sequel for years ;(

[–]Antiwater572 0 points1 point ago

This is in my top 10 games. Would love a second dose!

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

I loved how it started (.. you and your buddy are plumbers ..) and I loved the ending. Totally didn't see it coming.

Great game all around. Excellent third person adventure game. Good controls, lots of fun.

[–]FalconTheory -2 points-1 points ago

Ok we get it, it was good. Now could everyone stop karma whoring/ upvoting every repost to the front page?

[–]pazza89 -1 points0 points ago

steam it please

[–]DoctorDrgn -2 points-1 points ago

This Post made my Cry With joy I thought I was the only one person who knew how awesome this game is :'D I love you all!!
