Red Steel Review

By GR Staff

A Swordsman Wii Ain’t

UbiSoft almost had us. Give a bunch of gamers a remote to swing and of course we’ll want to use it as a sword. Predictable? Infantile? Yep. But so is Red Steel, which is as childish as shooters come, and definitely not the game we wanted for the Wii’s launch.
  • Some memorable visual design
  • Motion controls work relatively well
  • But are only the gateway to boredom
  • Blurry, indecipherable textures
  • Painfully constrained swordplay…
  • ...that barely breaks up tedious railed levels
  • Bargain basement writing and voice acting
