At Namco Bandai's area at the Electronic Entertainment Expo in Santa Monica today, Soulcalibur Legends was entirely playable - it was essentially the same areas and levels as the version the company showed us just a few weeks prior, but this time we could hold the Wii controls in hand and hack, slash and pound away at the enemies using the nunchuk/Wii remote combination.

It is a learning curve simply because it's not a 1:1 affair - like most Wii motion-based games, there's a slight delay in the action versus the on-screen remote, so quick and staccato motions seem to trigger random effects. Instead, the game was much more appreciative and responsive when you moved the controls with a much more steady and exaggerated motion.
