I've played this game a bit, and I can already tell that it is terrible. I wouldn't suggest it, but perhaps it gets a bit better as it goes along. I wouldn't get it, but I suppose others would. ;)

Yes, get it

unless you suck at video games

cause anyone who complains about the controls just sucks, trust me

And turn of the speaker in the Wiimote to keep the cursor from jumping around

But the controls were crappy, whether you're good at video games or not. WTF? :P

30 bucks is definetly worth it. The game is fun, especially the sword fights. There should of been more sword fights though...

I just rented it because everyone kept saying how terribble it was and blah blah blah. I have enjoyed it a lot. The controls aren't that bad. there not bad enough to keep you from enjoying the game. The graphics arent great but they aren't horrible. The gameplay is fun, but it isn't the greatest FPS out there. Don;t listen to anyone who says the game is horrible( chances are that they're pitching for the other team), it's not. Just don't expect too much.For 30 bucks I would buy it. Where did I see it for 30 bucks? Was it Gamestop??

The controls do suck when you first try them but keep playing and you will start to rely like it,so I say get red steel.

I heard extremely mixed reviews on this game.  It seems that you'll love it or hate, no in betweens.  But what's so wrong about it? Is turning the only thing ruining it?  I guess for some, it didn't reach the hype.  I really enjoyed COD3. How does it compare to that? or is it a completely different game?

Turning is the only issue I had with the game. Occasionally, and I mean that as not very often, few and far between, you'll have an enemy shooting at you and it takes you a second to turn and you'll take a few hits. . I have not died yet because of it. I don't think it hampers the gameplay at all.

I haven't played COD 3 yet so I can't comment. But like I said , don't expect the FPS of the century, for what it is its a fun game.

Get it, jeez the controls aren't that bad. I'm borrowing Red Steel from a friend now, and I was expecting controls to be horible. They're decent and don't make the game not fun. For $30, go for it.

Listen to your conscience... what's that, conscience? It's wrong to subject yourself to crappy gameplay filtered through C-grade production? OK.

$30 is alright, though you will still kinda feel that you've paid too much for it. I'd say hold out for a $10-$15 price point before buying it.

IMO, Its a Good game, far from Perfect, but its provides an Enjoyable time.
Its proven that not everyone can Adapt to the controls, these are the people who complain it makes them Dizzy and {female Dog} about the controls, but to those who can Adapt, it a fantastic game.

Multiplayer is a blast! (as long as the other 1-3 people have mastered the controls)

Its worth it for $30 dollars but, if you can find Call of Duty 3 for $30 or even $40 dolars then I think you will enjoy that game more because its a lot more realistic.
