Abstract: A casualty of Acclaim’s bankruptcy, The Red Star never made it to US shelves for its intended late 2004 release on Xbox and PS2, and the torch was handed to XS games who ensured the title didn’t slip away entirely into the abyss of canned-game obscurit...
Brand new title, old ideas, Repetitive, Over priced
One of the most annoying aspects of The Red Star is also one my pet hates in video games; a severe lack of save points. Any game that makes me plough through dozens of baddies in such a repetitive manner and then, once I die fighting one of the bosses,...

Abstract: Criticising The Red Star for feeling dated feels similar to attacking a pensioner for having grey hair. The game was originally due for release in autumn 2004, and was pretty much done when publishers Acclaim went to the wall. It’s now taken three year...
