I'm really enjoying this. Finally had some time with spring break to get deeper into this and it is a very solid experience. Controls are what I wanted out of the first one haha. Very solid and smooth transitions all around. Still not 1:1 but good enough for me right now. Or pretty much enough where it's close enough to make me feel like I'm doing it but not too close where I let down the character on screen who is an expert and me who knows nothing about how to handle a sword haha.

IF production cost of PS3 did go down I expect the same for the Wii since it's using basically last generation techniques. The average Wii game cost anywhere between $2-$5M to develop and top tier games like Zelda and Galaxy (though I think galaxy is avg now since it's reusing the same engine) cost around $8M-$10M. The average cost of a PS3 game at the moment is $18-$28M. With GoW III costing 44M and Killzone II at over $50M. Therefore the number of copies a game needs to sell in order to produce a profit is significantly lower on the Wii than PS3. I heard Reggie say 150-200K is the thereshold of a profit for a Wii title. That's why we see Sega, Ubi, EA still pumping outsequels/ titles like The Conduit II, NMH:DS, and MoH series on the Wii Message | Report |

@oni - PS3 USUALLY costs 3 to 4 times as much to develop for. I'm sure that RS2 cost a lot less than GoW, but at the same time, Ubi poured a lot more cash into RS2 than the average. Clearly they spent some dough on this game, and I'd speculate that it cost no less than half what the normal PS3 game costs now. Plus it's not as expensive as it used be to develop for PS3 since there is a large code base, and most engines are built, which reduces the costs further. Message | Report |

PS3 also cost 4-5x more to develop. Part of the reason for the lower sales than the original is that Ubi really screwed the consumer on the first game. Many now will tlake a wait and see attitude on this game. You reap what you sow I guess. Speaking of bombs Dante's Inferno isn't doing too hot on the PS3 despite the massive advertising campaign and being a very well made (visually and technically) game Message | Report |

You can NOT compare any Call of Duty game's sales to this game. Call of Duty is the BIGGEST 3rd party name in video games right now. If it says Call of Duty on the box, it'll have a long burn, no matter the platform. Red Steel is in NO WAY in that category with CoD. No way. I hope they get their 500k, and they probably will get there, but this game needed to launch at the same time as motion plus, and they blew it big time by missing that window. Message | Report |

@Buzzi That's not true. First of all, 1,20 million people have the first game, so it IS a popular franchise after all... It's not an unknown game, that's for sure. Second, I'm a Nintendo fan and yes, everybody is right, I buy Nintendo games without hesitating, and when I'm gonna buy a third party game, I actually think a lot about it, since Nintendo games >>> third party games... That's a true, if you grew up with Nintendo you know it... So, it's true, in the end, it's really hard for 3rd party games to sell on Wii, either they are advertised or not... Even companies like Capcom and Square Enix are finding it difficult (well, SE just released crappy games, but Capcom is a HELL of a company!) Message | Report |

@Fededx The fact is that the Wii userbase is not like the HD consoles ones. The Wii userbase is not informed, does not buy magazines or surf the web. If a game is good, they usually buy it, but if they don't know it exists they won't. Actually this game will sell decently, 500k is very possible, but with a better marketing it could open over 100k.

Motion+ exclusive means I am not getting it. But it will be an awesome game nonetheless. Message | Report |

Well, we can change the boxart now. I'm looking forward to this bold new direction Ubisoft is taking. Until then, I'll be keeping my eye on this one. Message | Report |

I also heard that Ubi confirmed that they are using motion plus for Red Steel 2. So now we will be decapitating and dismembering people with good controls and online ;) Message | Report |

If they are working on this game then they are taking their time which is awesome. The first one was a good start but just needed some more polish and online. I read a couple months ago that Ubi was working on the sequel and was addressing all the concerns. Better controls, graphics, and online Message | Report |

What the game needs to do to be a hit 1: better visuals still cell shaded 2: motion plus for sword fighting 3: co-op game play 4: online 5: Wii-speak for voice chat 6: tighter controls Do all this and its a guarantee hit Message | Report |

Hope the make a sequel for wii U. They should make it a tradition and change the setting again. Maybe futuristic or maybe even a world similar to dishonored. Message | Report |
