Mine Warfare: 20 Years of Red Faction is an interview series exploring the history of the community that formed around Red Faction (2001). Our aim is to tell the story of the community - one that all of us have been a part of in some way for a significant chunk of our lives. Who are we? This is a project from the team from FactionFiles.com, which first launched in 2009 and has since grown to be the go-to community for all things involving the Red Faction series. In 2018, we launched our Discord server which has since become the hub through which virtually all Red Faction community activity is organized. #redfaction #interviews #retrogaming #retrogames #redfactionguerrilla #boomershooter #multplayer #classic #interview #documentary
