I tried Borderlands tonight, I've heard people say it has a similar art style to RS2, but I don't see it. Borderlands looks more like Crackdown to me, and Red Steel 2 is like a prettier version of XIII.

I'm at Shinjiro. Is that the end of the game?

ShyGuy · « **Reply #627 on:** April 10, 2010, 05:16:01 AM »

First time for Shinjiro is about the halfway or two thirds point.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #628 on:** April 10, 2010, 05:44:57 AM »

ok, because I haven't unlocked all the moves nor got all the trophies and I still have 1 available gun slot open.

You'll know when it's the end of the game, the first Shinjiro fight doesn't feel anything like an end game.

I fought him twice and got my butt kicked (got him to 50% health though), but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't at or near the end since I hadn't got everything yet. I would have been disappointed if the game was that short. I'm having fun playing it.

I have played the game and the controls are very precise. Although the wide swings of the wii mote can get your arm sore if your used to it. Overall the game was fantastic in both gameplay and animation. This game is truelly a gem and all wii owners should have this game in their collection. Based on this game, why can't there be a Borderlands for the wii?

Because Red Steel 2 would strip Borderlands of its pants and everything else and parade it around town naked. Seriously, BL is bad, RS2 trounces it.

Just started playing today and having fun with it. It's a little frustrating how picky the game is on swings because I'm lazy and refuse to stand to play it but I'm getting the hang of it.

Where do I save, though?n I can't find the save option for the life of me.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #634 on:** April 10, 2010, 05:10:15 PM »

It saves automatically after you do certain things or enter/leave =certain places at certain times. You'll see the little icon pop up in the upper left corner to let you know when that is happening.It makes me uneasy about quitting and turn the game off since I'm not always sure when the last time the game saved itself.

Stratos · « **Reply #635 on:** April 10, 2010, 05:12:29 PM »

I was hopping for a manual way to save for that exact same reason.

This is really one of the best games I've played in a long time.

I'm really glad I someone here mentioned the bullet upgrades because I hadn't noticed them yet and it helped me catch it while its still early in the game. Unlike other people here I use guns all the time. They are great for taking out the machine gun guys, wounding and stunning enemies, and finishing off the dearmored guys. You can even use them on the big hammer guys.
One of my favorite uses is on the armored guys. They jump at you and you unload a shotgun in their face, it knocks them back and stuns them letting you rip apart the armor.

I just beat Shinjiro on ninja and he really beat the hell out of me again and again. My winning tactic was to attack with guillotine and stab him but if I used tiger unload two shotgun blasts into him at point blank. The new shockwave attack you get looks really cool.

Because the games are so similar that one of them would definitely take a bite out of then market share of the other, right?

Four-player co-op>>>>>>>>>>single-player only. Borderlands would rape RS2 in sales if it had been on the Wii. I would also be interested to know just what's so "bad" about Borderlands, given that it was received extremely well by both critics and consumers.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #638 on:** April 11, 2010, 04:44:19 PM »

It's completely boring. I heard some people liked it because they played it with 4 players but anything else and the game is a repetitive chore with a crappy mission structure.

Stratos · « **Reply #639 on:** April 11, 2010, 04:45:53 PM »

So Red Steel 3 should have 4-player versus and co-op. If we even get the sales to warrant a sequel...

Peachylala · « **Reply #640 on:** April 12, 2010, 12:01:59 AM »

Ubi was 90% troll this gen, so 90% of Nintendo fans (aka not us) might not give this game a chance just because of that.

We can never be pleased. Ever.

EasyCure · « **Reply #641 on:** April 12, 2010, 04:24:17 PM »

ugh i tried replaying the game after my initial playtime with it, and it froze on the load screen.. twice!

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #642 on:** April 19, 2010, 12:30:32 AM »

I predicted 20K. 2 is like a 5, but flipped. So I win.

Peachylala · « **Reply #643 on:** April 19, 2010, 07:12:04 PM »

I find that logic iffy.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #644 on:** April 19, 2010, 09:00:18 PM »

It's sound logic really.

I went to a furniture store with my girl yesterday to look for a kitchen table. She saw one that she liked, a sort of large for the available space 3 piece sectional with 4 or 6 chairs. I was the one that had to break it to her that the price of the table was $750 dollars(waaaaay above the price range).
To which she replied "Well I don't need the middle piece...."
and I said "If only they could remove the middle piece and take the middle number with it."

Is that only Nintendo fans? Given the increasingly horrific DRM that Ubisoft is throwing into their PC games, I wouldn't be surprised in they loose the interest of yet another demographics.

Speaking personally, I'm already on that bandwagon. And I was dying to play Assassin's Creed II.

Pardon me, didn't read the whole thread, so if this has been discussed already at length, I do apologize. Is it a common glitch in this game to fall out of the game world? I had that happen to me this weekend and stared at the screen for a while to see if it would ever resolve itself. It never did so I had to re-start the whole thing. I never did manage to duplicate it, but falling into an endless void was certainly unexpected.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #648 on:** May 04, 2010, 01:32:55 AM »

I saw something about that glitch on GoNintendo a month back but never encountered it myself.

SixthAngel · « **Reply #649 on:** May 04, 2010, 02:55:48 PM »

I was glitch free my entire playthrough.

The sidewinder with explosive rounds is the ****.
