wow.....watching those guys play really anoyed the hell out of me.... they suck and are to slow...

but the game does look alot better than it did at E3 though.

[SuperLuigiBros]

Its definatly passed GC by a long way now. Lookin good.

[IEatFriedPikmin]

looks freakin awesome overall. the sword fighting looks questionable though.

[Generosity of God]

personally i had no worries about the graphics. with Ubisoft dedicating alot of time, money and effort into the project, i always thought it would be at least RE4 quality. my opinion is that it has surpassed RE4 quality on many levels.

fire, explosion and lighting effects are amazing. physics are pretty good too. bullet holes and destroyable objects are plentiful.

the only thing i dont like (only a little) is how shiny alot of things are. but i'll just give the developer credit for using that style to take advantage of the ligthing effects.

i think the main worry i had was control wise. it has great potential and i want it to at least show the potential FPSs have with the Wii Remote. i want it to set a level of quality that other FPS should at least achieve, much like goldeneye007 did for the N64.

the turning in Red Steel certainly has been improved, as you can see in the videos that you no longer have to go right to the edge of the screen to turn. the sensitivity can be adjusted but i cant tell if it is preset levels or scale adjustments. i hope that there is also an option to adjust the aiming box size to our liking as i'd prefer my targets to be fairly close to the center of the screen.

the swordplay looks to have been built upon rather than made 1:1. i'm still not sure i prefer 1:1 but with what they have gone with i am not entirely hapy about the way the swords and arms are fairly still. i dont mind that the striking isnt 1:1 but they could at least allow the sword to follow your movements while waiting for the opportunity to strike.

the enemies have fairly good AI. almost always taking cover, shooting when the shot can be made, occasionally changing where they are taking cover and only standing still when they have no other choice.

overall i think the game is turning out better than most people would have thought. aside from wanting my character's arms to not be stiff but rather have 1:1 during sword fights (dont mind if swinging isnt 1:1) i see nothing worth complaining about and i eagerly await the Wii launch so i can finally get my hands on this Ubisoft Masterpiece.

[Hylian-Advocate]

I'd have to agree about the game from an onlookers point of view...

It looks a ton better than it used to and the graphics are better that what you'd typically see on the GameCube.

But you guys are right... ...I almost think the sword fighting looks like it may get boring after a while... ...I hope they have some variety to mix things up a bit..... and yes.... they didn't have to make the idle animation so stif.

I am going to be playing this game at launch... and if it turns out to be just mediocre.....oh well... but my guess is that it will be at least above your average completely half-assed shooter.

graphics are still suck .


I hate to say it , but man , i really wanted more from this system.


Anyway hopefully game play is good , i'm hearing its not

hey man no need for any of that.

graphics are good. just because you like to be rammed up the wazoo with 360 and PS3 graphics doesnt make Red Steel's graphics suck. your problem is you see Wii=bad and PS3/360=good when in reality it is Wii=good and PS3/360=better.

graphically the system is still getting started. most developers didnt bother to utilise the GameCube's power and you automatically expect the same developers to take advantage of Wii's power from the start. there will be plent of games that will look better than Red Steel. you just need to suck your shit back in your mouth and only let it dribble out for games that deserve it.

you keep hearing the gameplay is bad because you keep going back to the same sources who havent played the latest build which was only shown less than a day ago. all reports from the Paris event say the shooting element has been improved. sword fighting hasnt changed much though which is what i said earlier.

the game looks like it will be fun to play and actually quite intense in alot of the shooting areas.

i know you're not being a troll but when you pretty much always post that same opinion, it becomes quite annoying. Wii doesnt match PS3/360 graphically. get over it or stick to the other consoles.

Red Steel has "going to be awsome" written all over it, says Dncardman.

[Fallax]

According to the Official Nintendo Magazine (a European publication), Red Steel's controls are "vastly improved, thanks to software tweaks by Ubisoft and the final remote/sensor bar hardware from Nintendo."

And the graphics SUCK? They didn't suck in the first place. These new screens honestly own anything I have seen on Xbox, and not by a little bit either. When did the Xbox graphics become "suck" quality?

[nwo504]

graphics are better than everything else ive seen on the wii wii wii. They still look like a polished turd.

[Hylian-Advocate]

^wow... ...I dont understand why some of you still post things like that...

I'ts not an Xbox 360 or a PlayStation 3... ...it's a Wii

The graphics can't be up to 360 or PS3 standards but they are still really good. Right now, if you were to go back and look, they are better than the original Xbox... and none of you guys were complaining then.

Then don't buy it or a Wii. Nobody's holding a gun to your face demanding that you buy it. Some of us aren't so shallow and silly, though. The PSP serves as an excellent recent example of a more powerful, graphically superior piece of hardware getting it's ass handed to it by a graphically inferior system (DS), so obviously there's a hell of a lot more to gaming than just how nice your graphics are.

If you're one of those that are more concerned about the icing than the cake, you can always snatch up a PS3 next month. You can find the PS3 boards here (click).

People usually post screens of a game to show off the graphics and I posted my opinion about them. Do you want me to say they are amazing? Don't get so offended when somes says something negative. Just because the graphics are weak dosen't mean I won't get a wii. It's just one less thing to get hyped about.

i disagree. splinter cell , ninjagaiden and riddik still hold their own to red steel and xbox graphics became suck quality when 360 came out.






this is why 360 took alot of heat (pun) at launch

[TheGreenElf]

my opinion is that it has surpassed RE4 quality on many levels.

I wouldn't give it that much credit. This looks better, but Capcom squeezed GC for every bit it could when making RE4, I doubt Ubi has done that quite yet as the system is still fairly new to developers and it's a launch game.

[Hylian-Advocate]

I still disagree with you nwo.... the reason nija gaiden looked so hot was because of the character models...

and most levels in Splintercell dont have that much going on in terms of geometric detail

bottome line... the Wii is better than the xbox and there is really no point arguing that...its just known fact... the outdoor level designs in that one red steel pic are more detailed than any of the three pics you showed... the only thing I kinda don't like are some of the character models in Red Steel... I think they could have higher poly counts... but besides that... it looks prety hot...

Is it better than everything I have seen from the GameCube/xbox....mmmmm.... probably not... there are certain parts that look better than others....

To tell you the truth.... I think the graphics in Super Mario Galaxy were prety hot!

[nwo504]

does the nunchuk have motion senseing too? in the video the guy was swinging it like it was.

I don't see why I can't comment on the graphics . WTF else is there to comment on from looking at stills ?

Honestly please tell me . Should I comment on the great voice acting i'm hearing from the stills ? The great animation ? How awsome the controlls are ?

Guess what dude , none of that shit can be told from screen shots .


(and yea the youtube video is there but sucks ass )

i didnt say you can't comment on the graphics. i said your constant hatred of the graphics of any Wii game should be reserved for games that actually do have graphics that suck. Red Steel is looking good but because you glorify PS3 and 360 graphics, your opinion is automatically tainted because Red Steel doesnt look spectacular like games on those consoles.

Wii obviously cant compete graphically yet you still come here expecting so much. red steel is a launch game that already looks as good if not better than RE4 and Ninja Gaiden, games that have good graphics. the other next gen consoles have set the graphics bar higher but that doesnt make Red Steel's bad.

finally, i'm just going to say it straight. you are a graphics whore. main proof is that you can't bring yourself to acknowledge the improvements made on gameplay because you got distracted by the video quality of youtube. you automatically say a game will look bad on Wii because you already think the definition of good has changed to whatever PS3 and 360 have.

just keep your graphics comments where it counts. and it doesnt count here.

Once again what should I comment on ? The videos are poor quality and not english , so i can't comment on voice work. I can't comment on the controls as i'm not playing it.

The only other thing is to look at videos

Nintendo has been saying 2-3 times more powerfull than the gamecube. I was hoping for some graphical improvement and the games are lacking that imo .

Yes a launch game on a 5 year old console that has been clocked higher and given more ram .

Hardly much of a diffrence from the gamecube . I would have hoped that games looked at least as good as 2 year old games on the cube . If they looked worse than gamecube games then nintendo would have been screwed 6 ways from sunday .

LOL bullshit . If a game plays well that is great . I love it . I will buy the game (if i own the platform or like the type of game it is ) However wtf am I supposed to say in a thread where there is nothing about gameplay ?

Should I say huh wow ... Grpahics look like ass but um from the video it looks like controlling it is easy ? How would I really know ?

How do I know the A.I is good , or the level design is good or the control scheme is well thought out ?

No this thread is purely about graphics as that is what we were presented to discuss .

just keep your graphics comments where it counts. and it doesnt count here.

No your comments and insults have no place in the thread. Once again , if you want to talk about game play then point to a recent article about gameplay of red steel . Do not come into a thread with pictures and videos and get mad when people discuss those pictures and videos .
