Ships Ahoy - Red Faction: Guerrilla

THQ announces the Games for Windows - LIVE edition of Red Faction: Guerrilla is now available, offering PC gamers the same science fiction action set in destructible environments as the already-released console versions of Volition's third-person shooter. There's also a new launch trailer to celebrate the game's release with a look at some of its cinematics and gameplay; the clip can be found on Strategy Informer. Here's a portion of the announcement highlighting advantages of the PC edition:

“Red Faction: Guerrilla earned wide-spread critical acclaim on the Xbox 360 and PS3 for providing a unique open-world experience packed with intense guerrilla-style combat, sophisticated weaponry and the most advanced destruction engine ever built,” said Kevin Kraff, vice president of worldwide marketing, THQ. “Gamers can expect the same top quality from the PC version, with the added benefits of DirectX10 support, bonus downloadable content and additional technical advancements.”

“Red Faction: Guerrilla’s PC debut will expose even more gamers to the Red Faction universe and further enhance the game-play experience by maximizing the PC’s capabilities,” said Rick White, producer, Volition, Inc. “The PC version features higher graphical quality through the support of Direct X10, as well as smooth, customizable controls, resulting in a visually impressive, high performance product.”

For a lousy, what, half a percent interest?

American currency isn't the center of the universe. You can save (or invest) in gold, diamonds, real estate, foreign currency, etc. As long as your savings (investment) appreciates vs. depreciates you're doing okay. Buying a game right away is a 'lousy' way to spend money when in 6 months to a year the same game is often 1/2 or less the original price, all patched up, while contemporary hardware is much better suited to run it. It's the instant gratification spending that leads to all sorts of economic problems.
