PLOT
=============================================================
What was once a peaceful and prosperous city has fallen into the hands of a syndicate led by a man known only as Mr. X. The Syndicate has absorbed the city's government and even has the city's police in their pocket. Crime is rising rapidly, and no one is safe walking the streets, day or night.

Three police officers, Adam Hunter, Axel Stone, and Blaze Fielding, repeatedly try to make a task force to counter and resist the Syndicate, but with their superiors either bought out and bribed by the Syndicate or too fearful to stick their necks out, nothing is done.
