Now I've only played the demo, so I won't give it a 5-star rating, even though this game looks to be top notch. The Red Star is what we'd call a GAME. No Final Fantasy, Metal Gear, or Silent Hill-like cinematic event. It's just fun to play. The game play combines elements of side scrolling beat-em-ups and old school shooter elements. And here they're messed together in a very polished way. I'm still big on old school gaming, think its a shame they've gone wayside; so this tastes even sweeter. Level designs will be varied also.
3 characters are playable in the final product. Of the 2 in the demo, each look to be really different, and just as importantly, fun to play.
I hope that the demo level is pretty easy compared to later ones. Or the game will have higher difficulty settings. Its all good nonetheless. So this fall, in the wake of GTA: SA, Metal Gear Solid 3, and other big hitters, don't over look this game that's shaping up to be an overlooked gem.
Awesome Demo when is the release date?

I saw the demo for this game at a local store. Being a fan of the comic series I was initially pulled in. Upon playing it I found how beautiful the X-box performes with this game. It's your started hack and slash 3-D scroller akin to the classic shooter games of the late 80's early 90's ie Contra. The beast part about the game are the melee attacks you can do. It brings a street fighter quality to the game when you get tired of just shooting. I'm hoping this game has not been discontinued nor cancelled and is going to be released to the public soon. I hope there are good signs for the future of this game if there is a demo already out.
Absolute rubbish

This game is rubbish! for starters the characters in this game look stupid at best. The gameplay is hopeless with stupid fights every so often with big ships that use lasers that are impossible to dodge,and take five minutes at the least to destroy. This game looks a lot like an asian game but is about Russians! how dumb is that? I had trouble giving this game 1 star! why would you want to buy this game when you could buy another cheaper but one which is actually fun?
