I really enjoyed the first two Colony Wars games. They were a refreshing take on the space simulation genre and offered great graphics and an interesting story line. Red Sun is a step in the right direction for the series. It resolves the issue of being able to play all of the missions which offers a more logical progression through the game. The graphics are even improved from last time around and the audio continues to be top-notch. However, I came away from the game feeling as if it didn't really make me feel as if I was part of the game. The cutscenes were a little too short and choppy to drag me into the plotline and even the end sequence felt rushed at a time when I should have been savouring the moment I "saved the universe". All in all it's a fun game and the best in the series. Pick it up if you get a chance. Rating: 7.8/10
