Would be nice if Ubisoft hadn't shoveled so much $#!t onto the console before finnaly making something good.  I'm not feeling it at all, but I'll probably pick up RS2 today just to support M+ development.

Be nice to Ubi they've done Shaun White - good; Anno - superb; Rabbids - decent and now this. Plus they've published some cool games in the States.

I have RS2 but can't play yet due to family watching TV. Gah!!

GOD i hate x-play. They gave RS1 a 3/5 and gave this game the SAME SCORE. Doesn't that imply that it didn't improve at all?? Isn't that....yuh know...not true??

GEEZ.

No, it just means that it's a 3/5 game. And standards have changed, launch titles usually get much more leeway than titles that come this late in the generation.

I agree.  I actually liked the first Red Steel.  It wasn't an epic game-changer or anything, but the controls were fun, and I liked the campy story(-telling).  I think the reason everybody hates Red Steel is because it came out the same day as Twilight Princess, and they were supposed to be the first 2 epic motion controlled hardcore games.  Comparisons with Zelda are deadly like that.  Beating Zelda to the punch with Motion+ could do wonders for Ubisoft.

And all these comments have made me suddenly want this game.

Okay, I may end up regretting this, but I posted a video of myself playing in the OP.

Agreed, Wii needs more games like this. This looks like the first core non-sports game to actually take the motion controls seriously and as an integrated part of the game rather than tacked on waggle.

I think the internet needs more videos like the one in the OP.
Seeing people's reaction to the game in video form would help the game go viral, like Just Dance.

Played it now and it is very good fun. Well done Ubisoft...

Looks good but I'll wait until it goes down.
