well hopefully they will fix the unresponsive sword fighting this time...it ruined the first red steel game

Since they aren't under pressure to meet the console launch hopefully the game will be decent.. the first one wasn't bad.. nowhere near the best but far from the worst FPS.

The first one was pretty bad. Hope they can turn it around with the sequel.
