FYI, MSN Brazil leaked the footage when they weren't supposed to so Ubisoft is now scrambling to get the footage down and all the youtube videos of the trailer down.

Nobody's suspicious of that "Destination Playstation" in the beginning?

Destination Playstation is a retailer only event, maybe Ubisoft was also showing off some Wii products at the show for some reason.

Not a chance, the trailer is insulting, and the source footage sucks.

That's why I'm suspicious. A Wii exclusive, as far as we know, being shown at a retailer only event that I suppose was only for Playstation products.

So, Red Steel 2 is multiplatform now?

Well you know Wii has bluetooth, Wii Remote is a bluetooth controller, PS3 has bluetooth, and PS3 controllers are bluetooth controllers

I'd buy a PS3.

this trailer is awesome!!!!!!!! I usualy never get too hyped by the over cool trailers, that I know wont play like it looks. But because of motion pluss I am so hyped for this game and the graphics are freakin awesome!

Yeah we'll see how the graphics turn out. Pro seems to think none of it is actually Wii gameplay but then again I think he has Red Steel 2 jealousy!

Just rewatched it. The main character's hat is bad ass.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #189 on:** May 05, 2009, 02:34:31 AM »

Just watched it and I love Motion+.

DAaaMan64 · « **Reply #190 on:** May 05, 2009, 03:20:24 AM »

Pro maybe right. Make sure we are careful about what kind of footage we are looking at.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #191 on:** May 05, 2009, 04:39:29 AM »

It doesn't look like more than the Wii can handle, remember we're talking about two Gamecubes taped together, not two N64s. Maybe the texture detail is a bit high but I wouldn't say it's impossible to do. The geometry detail is fairly low, the environments are fairly simple, just a few bleak walls and in the town zoomout you don't see a lot of geometry detail either.

I do find it curious that they cut away from the game footage whenever the sword would hit the other guy, either they want to hide the lack of blood or they just haven't implemented the alternative hit effects yet.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #192 on:** May 05, 2009, 05:24:02 AM »

The resolution bugs me. I don't expect textures and object edges to sharpen from a 480p game output that's upscaled to HD (introduces scaling interpolation/blur) then downscaled and recompressed to YouTube falseHD (compression artifacts and additional smudging).

The core degree of detail of the environments and characters are in the realm of Wii gaffix, but the sharpness of what's supposed to be a *Youtube* video suggests otherwise. The details have a finer presentation than Wii games I see in person. And with it coming from Ubisoft, I'll leap and cartwheel to skepticism. If you can imagine tracing the steps it took to generate this footage, it's like the Wii assets were running off a 360 or PC.

Nick DiMola · « **Reply #193 on:** May 05, 2009, 06:56:54 AM »

I'm with Pro, there is no way that was being output by a Wii. There was upscaling going on there to make it look so smooth.

It still looks like the sword fighting is arena based, so fail anyway.

Plugabugz · « **Reply #194 on:** May 05, 2009, 07:56:44 AM »

I watched in HD (FauxHD as Pro refers to it) and it doesnt seem like it's Wii originated. It seems so silky it'll give Toni Braxton's legs a run for its money.

Tanookisuit · « **Reply #195 on:** May 05, 2009, 08:59:42 AM »

I dig it.

Rhoq · « **Reply #196 on:** May 05, 2009, 10:03:46 AM »

The trailer looks great, but there is no way it was running on a Wii.

The Wii can look very good (Super Mario Galaxy has some impressive visual effects that I haven't seen in a Wii game since), but this trailer looks too good.
