Game Overview

Twenty years after the devastation caused by the Bloody Mary Virus a new order emerged based on two distinct but totally independent worlds, divided by the ultimate consumerist society - Above and Below. Maintaining law and society order is veteran Headhunter Jack Wade and rebellious street kid Leeza X. Whether solving crime in the glittering metropolis Above or stalking the criminal masterminds of the shadowy underworld Below, they are led into the greatest danger of their lives and must overcome something much more sinister than a simple human threat. Each must face their darkest fears. Together they must redeem a world facing chaos...

The Bottom Line

The sequel to the PS2/Dreamcast title Headhunter, Redemption offers two different playable characters (each with their own unique abilities and powers) and bigger environments. Headhunter: Redemption takes place 20 years after the release of the Bloody Mary Virus. With society divided into two classes -- "Above" and "Below" -- returning hero Jack Wade and his new protege, Leeza X, must circulate between two different societies as they attempt to uncover the mysterious of an arms deal that may threaten the safety of the world. The game enables players to function much like the first game: You move in the third-person perspective, walk, run, and strafe around enemies using an assortment of handguns, assault rifles, and slightly futuristic weaponry to annihilate enemies.

Frankly, Redemption just isn't a very interesting game, from any angle.

It might not satisfy quite like the third-person shooter action games of late but the game offers lengthy missions that just get better the further you go. It's a shame that many of the original game's flaws return in full force in this sequel.

A strangely appealing, almost broken mess of a game. It has a very specific kind of action that's different and charming.
