Wii - Red Steel  - Disaster: Days of Ubisoft's Many Problems II Mysterious industry "insider" Surfer Girl reveals more "trainwrecks" and/or "nightmares" hidden behind the closed door of Ubisoft:

¿ How Martin Tremblay, former CEO of Ubisoft Montreal, was "asked to resign" because a certain then senior producer named Yannis Mallat could not stand him. (Mallat has connection to the the Guillemot family that owns Ubisoft; After Tremblay's departure, Mallat was promptly promoted to CEO.)

¿ How Mallat influenced the editorials to kill an unannounced "AAA" HUDless FPS.

This explosive new trailer reveals Red Steel's four-player element in full with four models demonstrating just how easy it is to slaughter each other armed only with a Wii-mote, perfect teeth and an aspirational loft apartment. Hit the Movies tab above to check it out. But if you can look past the wholly unlikely scenario, the acting, the gurning and the presence of a girl (as if), the trailer should still manage to invoke strong memories of the fun of four-player ... » Read More

We've rounded up a gang of Red Steel shots as Wii's first-announced shooter limbers up for a shot at the console's launch line-up. It's been a bumpy ride for Red Steel, after an unimpressed response from the E3 crowd in May saw the game yanked back in by the collar of its fancy leather jacket for some visual and control polishing. Soon we'll be able to find out for ourselves if it was all worth it but, in the meantime, check out the shots on the Images tab and imagine your best Wii-mote ... » Read More

Wii News from N4G | Red Steel
Wii - Red Steel  - First Red Steel multiplayer details The basic modes of multiplayer confirmed to us today are deathmatch, team deathmatch and an intriguing game type dubbed Mission mode.

We all know what deathmatch and team deathmatch incorporates, but Ubisoft is planning something very unique for the Mission mode. As the game fires up, your Wii Remote will ring like a phone. You'll then press the 1 button and answer it - yep, just like a phone. A voice will then tell you your objective, which must be completed before your rivals in order to win the round or game.

These objectives include one of the three or four deathmatches (it wouldn't really work with just two) being a 'mystery' player that must be hunted down by the others. The mystery player's goal is to survive the time limit while the other players must seek him out and make a kill for the victory.

We also note that Nintendo is receiving solid support from third-party game publishers, including titles designed specifically for the Wii, such as Tony Hawk Downhill Jam (Activision), Madden NFL 07 (Electronic Arts) and Red Steel (UbiSoft)."

Yakuza-style Wii launch title Red Steel had a rough ride at its E3 showing, but in interviews at last week's Leipzig Game Convention, developer Ubisoft promised that it has taken the criticisms seriously - and is busily improving the title for release. As Wii's first original shooter, the concept of Red Steel 's gun-and-sword antics ended up being a little more exciting than the reality in its E3 showing, with tetchy controls and a slightly disappointing sword-fighting mechanic. We'd hoped to ... » Read More

Wii - Red Steel  - Wii gets no online third-party games until 2007 Gamers hoping for an online component in third-party games like Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam, are in for bad news, because one isn't planned.

Why? Because Nintendo will not release Wii Wi-Fi Connection libraries to third parties until early 2007. Which might mean that no third party launch title aside from maybe Ubisoft's Red Steel and of course Nintendo's own games will have an online mode.
