A unique first person shooter that utilizes the wii mote to use swords and guns.

User Rating: 7.2 | Red Steel WII
Red Steel is really underrated. Its unique gameplay and great graphics combine to create a really special feel to the game. The graphics are the best on the wii so far and the gameplay is really ackward at first but once you get adgusted it doesnt feel bad.

Graphics: The graphics are great. All the guns look nice and the environments are especially good looking. Although they arent any where near next gen, it still makes the game enjoyable. It also had destructable environments which are a great addition which makes this game stand out of other shooters.

Gameplay: At first its a nightmare. The wii mote is extremely sensitive and if your used to using a normal controller it will take alot of time to get used to. Once you grasp it, it will be alot easier but never feels right. You can use guns and swords in this game which is really cool. Youll just randomly have to fight someone with a sword as you play, which gamespot thinks is bad, but its pretty cool. The sword fights arent the best but are always fun and challenging. The guns are all cool because if you tilt your hand sideways so will the character in the game. There are alot of guns to choose from varying from shotguns to pistols to machine guns. But the only downfall is that it gets repetetive if you play it for hours on end.

Sound: The sound effects are amazing. The music is pretty decent aswell. All the guns sound viscous and every object in the environment makes a different sound if you shoot it.

Story: The story is pretty lame. You some japanese guy whos going out with a mob bosses daughter and then the Yakuzas attack and all hell breaks loose. Its not the strongest plot, but its better than nothing.
