I would say it deserves a shot, if only because the world it is set in is so rich.

Not completely confirmed yet, and I'm sure there's a lot more information out there on the topic.

Basically, Craig signed to at least two Bond Films, but is considering breaching contract unless the second film (supposedly a follow-up to Casino Royal) features a homosexual lover, or at least a homoerotic relationship.

I've never been a huge fan of the Smash Bros games, but Brawl may at least be innovative. Corruption looks fantastic, so I'm getting that one for sure. :)

Friend talked me into coming up to wal-mart with her so she wouldn't be alone. Turned out five other of our friends were also getting one. I was 18/20 in line. Had to work that night too, so at about 10:30, I did a dangerous thing. I handed my little brother (16) my credit card and thorough details of his death if he were to misuse it. About an hour into my shift, he came by and dropped off the Wii, Twilight Princess, and Redsteel.

Redsteel is a solid Ubisoft title. They definitely have the shooter genre figured out. Only problem is that being as its a launch title, its going to have some pretty bad glitches. Mainly a few view control problems (my TV most likely) and the some event trigger issues. Baddies not attacking until you walk through the right area in the room kind of thing. The sword fighting system  is not quite as intuitive as commercials have played it out to be, but the further you progress, the more intricate katas and special moves you learn, making it at least a little more fluid. One thing I've noticed is that new players will try to 'chain' slashes and moves. I.E., they will start a left swing when the right swing hasn't quite completed itself on-screen. Redsteel does not respond to this at all. Other video games which would implement a kind of 'action queue' has trained us to just chain up events and, technically, abusing the program. Simple and efficient timing is what is required, and when executed, is greatly rewarding. Also, the tiered-out missions in the latter half of the game is quite enjoyable, giving you a base to branch out from, rather than a never ending roller-coaster of a game. My only personal complaint so far would be the weapon variety. Sure, there are a good number of guns, but I'm used to the more potent weapons not being unveiled until further in the game. Rather, you are introduced to the Type-12 (automatic shotgun) in the first couple of missions.

Twilight Princess is actually a GC title that was pushed into being a Wii launch title by forces unknown. I would like to see how it actually preforms on the GC with its control scheme. Otherwise, THIS GAME IS THE SHIT. PERIOD. Each and every weapon introduced (sword, shield, slingshot, boomerang) and its unique controls and functions have not yet ceased to amaze me. The boss fights thus far (I'm only on the ice temple, and I haven't even made it through the front door yet), while not quite tactically challenging, have been fun and interactive. I'm still in awe over the forest temple boss. (Fire temple boss? Not so much so...) The first thing that really caught me off guard was when they started introducing the twilight. WTF? Pixel art? Black stuff? WHY THE HELL AM I A WOLF?!? OH WAIT, I CAN DIG AND SMELL, THIS IS PRETTY COOL. And stuff.... :D   The progression has had an interesting formula so far. Find spirit, kill bugs, cleanse twilight, do temple. I'm coming up on the third temple though, and thus, the last piece of fused shadow, so I'm not sure if the game is going to take much of a turn in events or how it is going to continue. More on this when I hit it. :)

Good work man! Nice idea to use a SG as a base template to vector. :)

BTW, the pen tool is God's way of telling us "WHAT the hell are you thinking?"
