Red Steel 2 – Nintendo Wii

The Summary…
Red Steel 2 returns with an artistic style and flair created just for Wii. Set in a desert-bound, high-tech metropolis, Red Steel 2 promises to be a revolution in the action-fighting genre, taking full advantage of the capabilities of the Wii MotionPlus accessory. Your movements are faithfully replicated on-screen, putting the emphasis on swinging, shooting and fun! With the ability of the Wii MotionPlus to sense the strength of a swing, you will literally be able to make an impact on your adversaries through power and precision. [Ubisoft]

The Written Verdicts…

Official Nintendo Magazine UK
It’s not perfect, but it’s a highly enjoyable, unique twist on first person action gaming.

GameTrailers
Red Steel 2 has it where it counts, with a deep combat system that continuously improves as the game progresses. It could do with more interesting tasks outside of battle, but it nails the swordplay like no game before it.

IGN
There are still some issues, both in game balance as well as wishy-washy motion sensing control, but the awesome style and energetic gameplay are enough to make this one of the top titles on Wii.

Eurogamer
In the end, you’ll likely forgive Ubisoft’s game its shortcomings on the strength of its energy, obvious good will, and deep sense of craft.

1UP
A mostly unremarkable, occasionally exhilarating run through a dystopian Nevada. Just don’t expect a long, drawn-out action adventure — if it was, you might put your arm under serious stress from all the swinging.
