Like I said two days ago. Its an average game, the controls aren't 1:1. But its fun. Just Rent it.

damn just when I'd finally broken down and allowed myself to buy a Ubisoft game full price.  Now I'm back on the fence.

1:1 swordfighting is impossible, for any game ever.

A wii controller has no weight, but a sword does. Do you see yourself swinging a sword back and forth multiple times per second? I don't think so. It would look totally ridiculous and gameplay would be broken.

1:1 would be tricky, but a proper game design would be able to deal with someone flailing a sword around like crazy.  Sport resort already handled it actually, you just have to stun the player for a bit whenever one of their strikes gets blocked.

 

besides which, fencing foils aren't that much heaviuer than a Wiimote relatively speaking, people wave them sumbiches around like crazy in real fencing.

"Wii sports resort's sword fighting" has 100 times better gameplay than Red Steel 2
