This game is very fun co-op. Apparently it was an XBox game that was cancelled then came back to life on the PS2. It's a mix of action-brawler and top-down bullet-hell shooter. It is also only $20.

Oh why hello. Yes. I had this on preorder for well over 2 years at Gamestop and a year at Amazon. I really didn't think anyone else here would be at all interested. If anyone's wondering, think 3d Isometric Brawler + Bullet Hell + Darius Twin style huge inventive bosses (that aren't fish) + combos = Red star.
Yeah it really has a retro feel. To me it is like a souped up NES game. The plot is hard to read and harder to follow, there are no cutscenes or really anything at all outside of the main levels - no intro, no CGI, no nothing. You just press start and play. It's from a time when games were just games and not "experiences."

Apparently the game is based on the comic but honestly it is pretty impossible to follow, it's just a wall of text filled with similar-sounding Russian names.
