Red Steel Information Trickles In |
Ó
The information contained within the Game Informer article has leaked to the internet, and we have them here for you. Use the picture included of the Revolution Controller to better visualize how it will be used in Red Steel.Development Information
- Development started soon after E3 2005
- Ubisoft demoed controller before E3 2005 (Official controller unveiling was at TGS 2005)
- Ubisoft Paris took idea directly to Miyamoto and Iwata who gave the green light
- Nintendo worked very closed with Ubisoft on project
- Game Informer saw the "latest version" of the controller during their interview
- Martial Arts setting
- First third of the game requires you to be brutal out of neccessity
- You use quick and dirty weapons at first and move on to more precise and clean weapons as you progress
- Eventually, you'll go by the philosophy of "five bullets to kill five enemies"
- Music reflects your play style - calm and peaceful when you're precise; intense when brutal
- Freeze Shot Gauge fills up as you fight efficiently, decreases when you fight brutally
- Full gauge lets you freeze time to pick off specific body parts
- Shooting guns out of enemy hands might be more beneficial than headshots at that point in time
- After defeating enemy leaders, sparing their lives can help you in the long run as well as earn you respect - weapons, new paths, etc.
- Respect is very, very important
- Having your sword flailing around isn't smart
- Controller can be used to pull off combos - i.e.. draw an "X" in the air to do a special attack
- Special attack can be cancelled by stopping your movement
- You will learn new moves through two different mentors - a gun mentor and a sword mentor
- If you do not give your mentor respect, they will not teach you
- Yes/No answers answered by moving controller up/down to nod or left/right to shake your head
- Bowing to the masters shows more respect
- Ubisoft is thinking of more controller functions even now
- No cut-scenes in the game, everything done in real time
- Walking away from a conversation shows disrespect to the person talking to you; they will get angry
- Mentors give you missions that can be done in any order as long as you are respectful to them
- Main villain's name is "Tokai"
- You can try to get rival gang leaders to join your side, if not, they will join Tokai's side
- To prove yourself worthy, you must fight the rival gang leaders first
- You win by stopping a deadly hit milliseconds before it hits you
- Getting rival leaders to join you is vital - otherwise you'll be screwed against Tokai in the eventual confrontation
- Two triggers on analog unit let you jump and duck
- Movement controlled by analog stick (no rails)
- Remote used to aim and shoot (duh)
- "Aiming with the controller is as simple as using a laser pointer. You point your hand at a target and hit the trigger on the underside of the controller to fire."
- "Unlike other FPS games, which the the camera and aiming together, Red Steel's camera follows your aim with a slight delay. If, for example, you point to the edge of the screen, the camera will turn to re-center on your view after a second. With the sensitivity of the controller, a standard FPS control would move too much, potentially making the player feel ill."
- "Thanks to the improved reaction that the controller offers, the team can create gunfight scenarios that would be extraordinarily diffilcult with a standard controller".
- "[The AI] won't walk around a table to get to you. They will simply jump over the table".
- Unlike most console FPSs, enemies are arranged on both the horizontal and vertical plane; possible to due to ease of use of the Revolution Controller
- Speed of aiming is equal to however fast you can move your hand to the desired position
- Targets popped up in second story windows, rooftops, and cover points on ground - all were equally easy to target
- Does not feel like a light-gun game - takes the best of console and PC fps games
- Takes three seconds to fully turn in a console shooter, takes a quarter-second in PC shooter, take one second on Revolution
- AI is intelligent - cover while you're attacking, attack while you're reloading
- AI is based on the benchmark set by F.E.A.R according to lead designer Oriola
- Split-screen multiplayer available with deathmatches
- Original multiplayer modes will be revealed at E3 (Sword fights? Please?)
- Will contain Nintendo WiFi Connection play - nothing revealed due to NDAs

I realy like FPS games like HL2 and MP:H. This looks like a winner. I hope it comes out good!
the game is superiour to the other consoles lol!
Dam, you guys post it now, it was on wikipedia long ago.

nintendo are spot on. this is just what i want from my next gen console. I love Sony and once the $$$ drops Ill buy one(ps3) but Nintendo are giving us something new. I have loved Nintendo since I can remember. But as with everybody. We got PS1 then PS2 and a PSP soon followed. Never looked at a ds since it was In my eyes Inferior. Then I played one and my nintendo memories flashed back. Of course PS3 is going to be great but its going to offer us music/video/etc. Trying to be a PC. Where as Nintendo r giving us everything. I can play with every single person I no. Welcome Home Nintendo I never knew how much I missed you till now.
^I feel that way too...

same here and im defanley buying a rev now
same here and im defanley buying a rev now
i have nes, snes, n64, and a gc. like a year ago i was gonna get a ps2 and move to sony. i decided not to bec next gen was comig out and i would get a ps3. i was hesitant when they showed off the revolution console...what if it was better than ps3? i waited, and when they showed off the controller i was sold. nintendo fanboy again and forever. nintendo live on!!!
The dooms day for ps3 and xbox360 is the day the Nintendo revoultion launches.
Laters to the Xbox360, its gonna be the worst console in the next gen market. Revo>PS3>360
THe NR will destroy the crap out of every console ud be surprised...you have any idea how much IDEAS can be brought using this Controller?
At first,i was un easy with the concept if nintendo,well,all of the three consoles but now, the 360 seems to be doing good,ps3 might not be a total crash at launch but am impresse about the revolution,that controller can do stuff that you usually have to go to the arcades for.I got high hopes~
This sht rocks!!!!!!!!!! OMG i love the gameplay dang cant wait for this game. im saving up for the Revolution NOW!!!
Aint NR going to be the cheapest Console since Its not putting in a DVD player.?????????? Another smart move. PS3 is god noes how much but Blu-Ray is jacking up the price and Xbox is quite pricey. I only really like the HD of Xbox
nocomment
The whole gun mentor things got me hoping for some Equilibrium style ass kicking
The Revo has a DVD player, it just needs a dongle similar to that of the Xbox to actually PLAY DVDs.
Nintendo changed that the donglething it was scrapt reggie has already said in a interveiw that the revoultion will play dvds and will be wifi compatible out of the bow
i am definetly buying a revo with red steel and metroid prime 3
