Nintendo Wii that will put the weapon in your hands like never
before. The engaging storyline opens in Los Angeles, as Scott
Monroe and his fiancé, miyu, arrive at a high-class restaurant.
Scott is to meet Miyu's her, Isao Sato, an important business
man from Tokyo. Suddenly, the restaurant erupts in a hail of
fire as a group of Japanese mobsters (known as Yakuza) attack
and try to kip Sato. Scott manages to save his future
her-in-law. The Yakuza attackers run off, taking Miyu instead.
Scott soon learns that Isao Sato is the Oyabun, the Godher of
one of Tokyo's largest Yakuza families. The attack in the
restaurant marks the end of a truce between rival clans that Sato
had guaranteed. The Yakuza wanted to kill Sato and find his
, the Katana Giri. The legendary was once used to
punish dishonorable Godhers, and has since become a symbol of
peace. Sato was mortally wounded in the attack, but before he
dies, he passes the to Scott in exchange for a promise to
rescue and take care of his daughter. Scott has no chioce but to
head to Japan and try to find Miyu.
Once in Japan, Scott seeks out Otori, a reformed Yakuza and an
expert in the art of fighting. A friend to Sato and a man
of honor and tradition, Otori reluctantly agrees to help. Otori
trains Scott in the art of the . Meanwhile, another man
named Harry Tanner teaches Scott all about the Japanese
Underworld. Harry runs a night club popular with the Yakuza, and
he uses his many connections to help Scott on his quest.
Eventually, Scott uncovers the man behind the attack of his
her-in-law and the kipping of his fiance, a power-hungry
young Oyabun named Tokai. With his mistress, Mama San (the head
of the Geisha district and a female gang of Yakuza), Tokai seeks
to take control of the entire Tokyo mafia. However, his real
intentions are much darker and more mysterious.
With Otori's help, Scott must convince the Godhers of all the
remaining clans to join him in stopping Tokai. Kenzo, leader of
the Financial Clan, Tetsuo, boss of the Game Fighting Clan, along
with the heads of all the other clans - all powerful men, all
harbor their own agendas and ambitions. Scott must convince them
all to join him in stopping Tokai, but who can he really trust?
Control the action like never before
Red Steel uses the Nintendo Wii controller in ways not
previously seen in a console action game. By turning the Wii
Remote itself into your or blade, players can shoot and slice
their way through Red Steels ample story mode. When first
equipped with a firearm, the Wii Remote will automatically sense
the location and direction of your hand and the on-screen
weapon similarly. As you rotate your wrist to add flair and style
while picking off enemies, the on-screen weapon will mimic your
movements.
Equipping the is even more impressive. When Scott has the
at his disposal, the Wii Remote becomes a sharp Kitana as
players literally slash at their enemies and run them through.
The play style is incredibly immersive, and lends a realistic
element to action games that isn't often seen. As Scott becomes
more comfortable with his weapons, so too does the player, and
the moves they can pull off with the Katana improve in both
accuracy and speed.
Multiplayer play
As if an impressive story line and immersive control weren't
enough, Red Steel also boasts a number of local multiplayer
modes. In these modes, players can challenge friends to split
screen battles in various locales to see who the real master is.
Try a only battle royale without cover and the ability to
heal. Or, set up a battle with pistols and flanking
schemes for you and 3 of your closest enemies. Whether teaming up
or going "every man for himself," Red Steel multiplayer offers a
fun diversion to the title's main story.
Red Steel is an impressive Wii launch title from one of the most
innovative publishers making console games today. From its
opening cinematic to its realistic and quick-paced play, Red
Steel is a riveting and engrossing title worthy of Wii owner's
time and attention. After a few hours of mowing down enemies with
your side-ed pistol and whisper-quiet Katana slices, you'll
wonder why action titles aren't all this simple and fun to play.
