Wow, 1 up gave it a 56. That seems absurd to me from what I've heard about the game.

I stopped reading 1UP's reviews a long time ago, they haven't been a credible review site for several years.

The bad thing is that people will take this review seriously and thus hurt the sales more.

God damn it, wall banger moment.

The beat-em up can be completely revived with games like this.

Depends on the batteries, the set that came with my black Wiimote is still at 4 bars after about 5 hours of RS2 (and some WSR before that).

Man, Shinjiro is a bitch, I just fail way too many blocks.

Blocks are hard, I think I hyper extended a tendon. That's why I usually dodge.

DAMNIT SPINNZILLA!

Now I'm going to have to read another 10 posts of TJ Spyke arguing with everyone about the legitimacy of VG Chartz.

Why do you hate me so?
Why must all things be so bright? Why can things not appear only in hues of brown! I am so serious about this! Dull colors are the future! The next generation! I will never accept a world with such bright colors! It is far too childish! I will rage against your cheery palette with my last breath!

I haven't touched this game since the day the review went up, and reading what everyone says makes me want to go back to it again.

It's stuff like this that reminds me how I like games that toy with the first-person shooter genre (Portal, Metroid Prime, RS2) than games that are pure first-person shooters. If you expect or are looking for a pure first-person shooter, you should really just play Call of Duty, or get the hell off the Wii. If you want a game where you beat the crap out of a solid variety of enemies with a sword/gun combo and upgradeable moves, this is fantastic.

I should have just put that in the review. Stupid week-later revelations!

Hey guess what guys, Red Steel 2 sold 68,000 worldwide so far.
No I'm not citing from VG Chartz, this is absolutely my own guesstimate. ;)

I just got the game and I love it right now.

The intro is really cool and gave me a bit of time to shoot things before they introduced the sword.  The sword comibat is great so far too.  So far I've taken everybody down pretty easily besides Big Bill, should I play on hard or stay on medium for now?

The westernish setting is great.

Medium was suprisingly easy for me, but there are still a few challenging spots. When they throw a ton of varied enemies at you it can get tougher even with all the power ups.

protip: you can buy ammo and power up your bullets by clicking on the ammo boxes next to the guns at the sheriff's store.

Well I just got it today. My only initial complaint is the lack of setting change for lefties. The game is still playable but the sword swinging can be iffy at times. Find myself relying more on my gun just to avoid any sword play slip-ups.

I'm left handed, but I've gotten use to playing Wii games with my right hand. The sword play gets easier the more you play it.

I'm the same but it will be interesting to see how this turns out.

Eh after playing it some more I'm keeping it left-handed. As long as I can keep the darn thing charged it doesn't seem to matter as much. Is it my Nyko charge battery that's failing me or is the Motion Plus really that big of a drain?
