|image has rationale=yes as a parameter to the license template.Fair use rationale
It is believed that the use of this image qualifies as fair use in the article Red Faction (video game) because:
- Volition has released no such images into the public domain, and a replacement image could not be created that would adequately provide the same information
- The image is being used for no purpose other than to identify the subject of the article
- The image resolution has been significantly decreased from the original, so copies made from it would be of inferior quality
- The use of this image neither detracts from the game nor inhibits its salability in any way
