Red Steel Review

January 10th, 2007, 02:07 Posted By: ICE

ok so i figure there's a lot of people out there with a wii who want to try out a fps. right now you got 3 choices: Far Cry, CoD, and Red Steel. i will be reviewing the latter.

The Story
your a guy who's girlfriend gets kidnapped and guess what. you gotta save her and for some reason you gotta protect some sword along the way.. weird right??

The Graphics
graphics would be really solid last-gen but compared to current-gen id give it a passing grade of around a 7. it really inst as bad as what people keep saying unless you're a nit-picker.
7.5

The Game play
this is where it gets good. at first it will seem like simply a generic shooter with a new control scheme and it is at first. then they give you a nifty little thing called "Focus Mode". thats where the fun is for a while at least.. it lets you, momentarily, pause everything and "tag" whatever you want. then when you exit focus mode everything you tagged gets shot. you can get some easy head shots or even shoot people's guns out of their hands causing them to surrender.
7.5

The Sound
the people say the same things over and over.... gets real annoying hearing "PUNK!!!" over and over.. nothing else really stands out besides the wii-mote making noises when you reload and crap..

Lasting Appeal
the game itself isn't real long but it does have multi player thats pretty darn fun so you'll keep playing it for awhile.
7.5

Presentation
lastly presentation. its got a stylish look to it and uses the pointer well. you have to drag and drop stuff to go into it which is cool at first but gets old real quick.

ok so in conclusion id give it an overall of 7.0 right there in the C-D range.
