The original Red Steel had so much potential, but it sadly didn’t live up to the hype. Now we’ve Red Steel 2 on the way, and it has some huge hype building up around it, thanks in huge part to the Wii MotionPlus. The extra attachment that should have been a part of the Wiimote in the first place is promising a 1:1 replication of your movements with that of the game’s character.

I played through the section many people played through during E3 09. In fact, Anthony played through the same level, and he didn’t like the controls all that much. I, on the other hand, actually liked the controls, but I had some issues with other aspects to the game.

Hit the break to see how Red Steel 2 is shaping up.
