RS-2 is a fun, mindless shooter from premier Taiwanese developer SoftStar. Typical top-down shooter– no innovation to speak of, but excels at what it does: providing knuckle-blistering action through dozens of levels. More memorable aspects of the game include huge end-level bosses, nice power-ups (not your typical laser-or-shield choices), and rock-solid user controls. In short, another fun shooter from Taiwan’s most successful game developer. Its higher-than-average difficulty level makes RS-2 a solid challenge for action experts, although don’t expect another Tyrian in terms of addictiveness. Highly recommended nonetheless.
