Games We Love but Wish We Could Love Playing
20 hours 16 mins ago
Finally a game worth throwing your arms around in the room with the Wii Motion-Plus. OXCGN's Steal It For The 36o feature takes a look at the latest title for the Wii, Red Steel 2. Come see what their reviewer thought of it, you might be surprised . . .
And excellent vid by the developers on how to play the game as well, which was only released last week, great fun and informative.
Let's cut to the chase: it's about time the Wii got some third-party love.
I can count the number of good non-Nintendo Wii games on one hand, and Ubisoft's Red Steel 2 has casually sauntered into that club, kicked off its boots and is now chugging down some beers with Boom Blox and De Blob.
Red Steel 2 is the 'sequel' to the first-person shooter / slasher launch title that provided a bit of variety alongside the glut of minigame collections, but failed to truly stand out. However, when I say 'sequel' I mean it in the same sense that Far Cry 2 was a sequel to Far Cry.
Basically the development team has seen fit to change the setting, the characters, the art style, the gameplay and pretty much everything. Oh, and it's also one of the first games to require the MotionPlus add-on.
