Red Steel 2 hopes to improve on the first game with some some solid graphics and a MotionPlus peripheral that's very much underused. Red Steel 2 starts off with a bang. The character is dragged, hands tied together, behind a motorcycle. After that it's time for some combat. The short scene is exciting, brutal, and fun. It's all downhill from there.
Phil writes, "Too often we see video game sequels that don't quite live up to their predecessors... but we already have an article series dedicated to those games. Instead, let's take a look at those video game sequels that not only live up to their predecessors but greatly surpass them in quality. It's time to bring back The Most Improved Video Game Sequels (you can read part one here) to check out these sensational sequels that delivered and did so in a deliciously delightful manner."
Resident Evil 4
Ratchet & Clank 2
Silent Hill 2
Street fighter 2
Castlevania: Symphony of the night
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
Assassins Creed 2
Metal Gear Solid (not first game in the series)
Tekken 3
God of War (2018)
Mortal Kombat 9
Devil May Cry 3
Virtua Fighter 4
Luigis Mansion 3 doesn’t really belong in that list because the first game was great and it’s sequels didn’t really redefine the series.
There’s more to Ubisoft’s back catalogue than its Templar-bothering flagship franchise and we’re here to prove it. By grovelling for remasters, of course.
With the Switch bringing interest back into the realm of motion controls, it seems as good a time as any to dip back into the backlog and retrieve some lucrative nuggets from the one that launched the phenomenon in the first place: the Nintendo Wii.
the graphics for the game looks really good this time. hopefully it will be better than the first game, not to mention its should be a very accurate game now that it uses wii motion plus.
Hmm...
If only they used it properly and made it so you can move the sword completely freely...
But then for me this game would be way too easy XD (do fencing)
I never liked the first Red Steel. Horrifle graphics. Poor gameplay. Action is non responsive to the remotes. I think they make it too quick just to get their sales without correcting the bugs or error in the first game.
I true Ars and this may be a problem in the early build. It actualy seems like Ubi is dumbing the game down which would suck... I hope they have two modes of play. This one and a expert mode. Man I love their graphics but they are going to get ate alive if they don't get the sword right. Any thing from strider to shinobo is just waiting to crush ubi if they don't get it right the first time. I hope they pull an HVS and listen to the negative comments.
