Red Zone is a video game developed by Zyrinx and published by Time Warner Interactive in 1994 for the Sega Genesis console. It sported outstanding visual effects, though it was plagued by excessive difficulty.

A pre-release version of this game - Hardwired - has been deemed by the (now defunct) developer as publicly distributable [1].

[edit] Plot
