"Amazing - Best game I've played in a long time."
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Very fun game. Switching between gun and sword during battle is awesome. It requires WiiMotion+, which makes it less waggle and more defined motion. Satisfying finishing moves. Feel like a total badass after boss battles, especially when there's a sweet cutscene at the end. Icing on the cake: Probably the best looking game on the Wii. Seriously, it looks amazing, all running at 60fps. The only qualm I have is that the voice-acting is somewhat cheesy at times. Apart from that, it's fantastic! Definitely recommended.

"Action-Fighting game at its finest."
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

With The first Redsteel being a bit of a let down Redsteel 2 goes in a completely different direction and most definatly succeeds.

I've played through Redsteel 2 and I am pleased with my purchase without a doubt. With sweet music, arguably the best visuals on the Wii to date and amazing combat thanks to the wii motion plus which gives you precise controls, its a must have for any Wii owner.

So why dont you just go ahead and click that ‘Add to trolley’ button :)

3 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I was unsure what to expect with this I hadn't played the first but this turned out to be well worth it the remote moved very well the gameplay is great fun with a switch at anytime between gun & katana the story can be a little cheesy but I still really enjoyed it so yeah intead of hireing like I usually do when I'm unsure I took the risk which was well worth it one with a great game & two with Mighty Apes great price :D

"The sword-slinger has returned"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Redsteel two is the most amazing graphic game I have played so far. The kusagari moves are amaizing tatics to force your opponet to his knees or keeping his off you.

The great cast of weapons allow you to practice on many kick-butt enemys with the whole set of guns, your handgun, your shotgun, your rifle and your machine gun.

I really enjoy swinging around my wii remote and preforming one of the hidden strikes. Believe me when I type this game rocks.

"Good game, Great controls"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Good game, not great. Light years ahead of part 1. Red Steel 2 has some fantastic and fun controls. As you progress through the game you pick up finishing moves and “Kusagari” powers which can be utilised in many different ways to kill your enemies which is a lot of fun. Switching effortlessly between your gun/s and Katana sword is pretty mean and you can purchase meaningful upgrades for weapons throughout the game. It is my favourite Wii game in terms of graphics and controls, but compared to other games the story, characters and side missions needed more attention. Overall however, a worthwhile purchase.

"Best Wii Game Ever!!! :)"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This is one of the best games that you can get on Wii!!! If you like shooting and swords this game would be great for you…But the story mode is a bit to short and if your reading this can you please tell me how to use weapons from the pre-order package!!! :)

"Sword Slashing Fun."
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Your going to get sore arms out of this wii game with all the action thrown at you that you've got to chop out of the way. Weilding a sword & using brute force to fight your way through the levels makes this an exellent game for anyone who enjoys a good fight with a weapon.

"Different and a lot of fun."
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I haven't been playing RS2 for very long, but am having a lot of fun with this game. I admit that I have mostly played wii sports only since getting the console last year, but I find that this title gives me a bit of a workout and I get lost in the fight as I'm slashing and blocking really using the control as my sword and not just as a control gimmick.

The sword fighting element of it deffently sets it apart from your usual first person shooter.

"What the original could have been"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Much better game then original, not buggy at all. Not 100% sword movement, but enough variation that you don't really notice. Good mix of shooting and slashing, when you choose this time. Good fun.

"Played 1.5 hrs and have forgotten about the real world "
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

From the beginning its exciting with great graphics. Sword play with the motion plus is awsome. This is a lot different to the first Red Steel a great improvement having the choice to use the gun or the sword at anytime during game play. Collecting money is a must to be able to purchase weapons and unlock sword fighting combos and techniques. Overall so far an outstanding game.

"Never felt cooler in a game"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

It's not the COOLEST game, but you will never feel cooler than when you're slashing stuff up and blowing people's faces off. This game is pretty much what everyone was hoping for when the Wii was announced. Also, smooth gameplay, cool storyline, beautiful cel-shaded graphics and a bitchin' soundtrack. Seriously, if you own a Wii or a Wii U, you have to own this game.

"Great fun"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I love games that have a story with them, so I really enjoyed this game.
