Do you want pics? well, you have 'em:

want information? the Endangered blog has this:

"the sword and guns can be twisted in your hand, by twisting the rev's remote. so you can shoot gangster style and block with the sword. also, there is split screen and online multiplayer planned, just no details yet. you can also jump over and take cover behind objects by moving the rev's remote towards a upturned table or a wall, and reload by pulling the remote back."

You will also be able to lob grenades by imitating throwing a ball with the controller in your hand, or even roll it along the ground with an underhand throw..."

'The longer we played with it the more natural if felt, and the more quickly we mowed down the targets. strafing around the targets is incredibly easy, as keeping the controller pointed at the object, while you move around with the analog stick keeps you focused on the target. Aim felt similar to using a computer mouse, as it is possible to quickly explore every direction in a three dimension space with quick gestures.'

“In many situations, there will be a higher-ranking enemy who commands the others in the area. By defeating him, and sparing his life, he will offer you his respect, and help. The enemies will surrender their guns, and the boss may offer you a new weapon, a special path, or another reward. Any time you spare an enemy, you will be rewarded. As it always takes more skill to spare a life, than to take it”

“Although the majority of Red Steel’s gameplay will stress ranged combat, there will be times you need to get up close, and personal. You can switch to the sword at any time, and if you can get close enough to an enemy, you can use it for one-hit stealth kills. In other moments you’ll find yourself locked into intense one-on-one sword duels.”

Endangered says that the pics are ingame 100%. But, I found this interesting thnig about Red Steel in the most popular blog about Revolution: nintendo-revolution.blogspot.com :

As you know, FalafelKid and his blog "Nintendo Revolution: Definitive Speculation" is off until E3 '05. Falafel gave clues that he is now under a NDA. And then, he gives us that reason: http://www.extravagameza.com/redsteel.JPG
Obvious, the Red Steel game that he posted isn't the Revolution Game, he only took the name. And he has said after the unveilement of GI:

Since GI took the liberty of publishing the story already (ahead of the arranged embargo, as far as I know), allow me to point out that what you see in those scans are ´tentative screenshots´ if you will. I can´t go into detail, but it´s not certain that we´ll end up with those graphics precisely. Then again, ´Red Steel´ will shine by gameplay merit alone. Trust me. They could be screenshots alright. But they could be running on all sorts of hardware.

So, is Falafel a new "insider"? we hope that he is right and he's not fooling us.



Altough it, What Game Informer publish is really interesting. And the images are great if they are in real time actually. The first unveiled game of Revolution System is here. The Reality Simulation is within us.
