GoNintendo just posted a link to this Red Steel 2 trailer. I’m not sure where this trailer came from, Ubisoft hasn’t published any official trailers yet. Let’s just assume that it has been leaked.
We can clearly see the 1:1 motion in this trailer. Red Steel 2 keeps moving up my list. The Holiday 2009 release seems so far away.
Update : I just noticed that at 1:08, the dude is holding his remote sideways. The gun isn’t sideways in the game. Did we lose that feature from the first Red Steel? It was a useless feature, but I felt badass holding my gun sideways while playing.











I was worried about how they would use the cel shading, but this looks pretty darn good. sure it’s not actual footage, but if they get the final look close to this it’ll be really nice.

FYI, this trailer isn’t real gameplay, it’s a proof of concept similar to the first trailer for red steel.

@Takam - That would explain the gun thing

Goddamn that looks exciting, even if I know it isn’t final gameplay. If they allow you to switch between gunplay and swordplay like that, I’m gonna love the hell out of this game.

Mmm…if it looks close to this it’ll look pretty awesome. I like it’s style. I hope we see actual gameplay soon though.

Are we sure it’s only a “proof of concept”? You can see some jaggies around building edges that are angled… so let’s wait and see. If this IS gameplay footage… daaaamn!

I assure you it’s not actual gameplay, too many effects going on in it, the anti aliasing is too nice, the lighting is too nice.. It would be great if it’s real gameplay, but I REALLY doubt it.

omg, this is what we all imagined when the wii was announced!
but oh wait, the game won’t look anything like this, or be good.

also i’ll never be as badass as the guy in the video when i’m playing a video game.

RE: UPDATE: You can ‘ol’ it gangster-style.

So…I think after seeing that, I need a Wii. Yes, I’m one of those weird people that frequents this site and doesn’t have one yet. Next console buy for sure though.

I tried contacting Ubisoft, to know if this was in-game or pre-rendered. And I just got a no comment

ubisoft is pretty brave ‘cos they are using cell shading and only a few like that.
they are mixing samurais with cowboys so only Americans like that. And also there were a lots of intents doing the same with different results.

Here’s a link to the video since the one in the post seems to be broken:

I think it looks pretty damn sweet. The graphics are smooth and I could see this being a lot of fun.

dudes, it’s a target video… CG… Obvious. So 1:1, whilst being alluded to, isn’t proved by a guy ‘acting’ the controls.

Уже более 4х лет постоянно обеспокоен этой проблемой и считаю ваши аргументы немного поверхностными

Где то около 2х лет стабильно занимаюсь этим вопросом и считаю ваши аргументы черезчур легкомысленными
