In this astounding account, Wall Street’s notorious bad boy—the original million-dollar-a-week stock chopper—leads us through a drama worthy of The Sopranos, from the FBI raid on his estate to the deal he cut to rat out his oldest friends and colleagues to the conscience he eventually found. With his kingdom in ruin, not to mention his marriage, the Wolf faced his greatest challenge yet: how to navigate a gauntlet of judges and lawyers, hold on to his kids and his enraged model wife, and possibly salvage his self-respect.

Thestory of Red Ocean is standard. The protagonist, a diver named Jackgets on the top secret super submarine base, packed with armed men andall sorts of technologies. A well wisher to contact him by radio, tellsJack that these are very angry thugs, having started wrong, and offersthree attempts to guess who is obliged to stop all this mess. Bravodiver has no choice but to take a hand pistol and start using it for itsintended purpose. Following the precepts of classical representativesof the genre, the plot of Red Ocean is limited by two rollers (initialand final) and several short lived entirely scripted scenes. In general,no revelations or attempts soriginalnichat. The plot, however, hasalways been a sore spot for the genre. Beautiful, varied levels,thrilling shootout c huge monsters and humanoid enemies (and not veryclever) are the main components of a good shooter. Unfortunately, noneof the above in Red Ocean is not observed. Since the action takes placeunderwater at a military base, the developers decided that the designshould be clear in the military, no frills. They have coped with thistask, one hundred percent. So anything that can be found in half emptyhalls and rooms of the installation its so barrels boxes. Drums, ofcourse, explode when hit, and in boxes with the inscription supply laypatrons. Sometimes there are strange arrangements.
