Another Steam game with a remaster that gives you the remaster for free if you have the original.

If you already had Red Faction: Guerrilla in your Steam library, there's a free copy of Red Faction Guerrilla Re-Mars-tered waiting for you. (Apparently, the colon was lost in the re-Mars-tering.)

And it has Steam cards, so it's even better than free.

That missing colon drives me nuts because it doesn't place it beside the original Red Faction Gorilla. It's sitting above Red Faction 2 and Red Faction: Armageddon.

Thanks for the heads-up, this was a pleasant surprise! I didn't realize it was going to be free for existing owners. I played the original one for a few hours and remember enjoying it, but got sidetracked at some point. I'll have to give this one a go...eventually.

There's been quite a few games on Steam recently where they gave owners of the original the remastered game for free.

Skyrim, Bioshock 1 & 2, Darksiders 1 & 2 (I think) and Titan Quest all come to mind.

It actually made me a little disappointed when Blizzard made original Starcraft free, put out a remastered edition, and didn't give the latter free to all registered owners of the former.
