Oh, look at those fish! Are they not pre-?Red Steel is not about fish, sorry.You, Scott Monroe, begin the game viewing some fish with your fianceé, Miyu Sato, right before a nice dinner the day you are to meet her father, Isao Sato. Unfortunately, rival yakuza aiming to take over the Organization (that Isao turns out to lead), kill Isao Sato, and get the Katana Giri, Sato's sword and symbol of his leadership. This ends in Miyu being kidnapped, and Isao being betrayed and dying, but not before entrusting the sword to you. You shoot and slice through Los Angeles to LAX where you get knocked out right after seeing the plane with your fiancee take off.You then follow your fianceé to Tokyo, where you get acknowledged as Sato's successor by the Sanro Kai, a Yakuza board of directors (after shooting or slicing their subordinates), which then asks for your help in defeating Tokai, the Big Bad and the one holding your fiancee captive. You proceed to slice, shoot, and/or spare his subordinates.Red Steel is a First-Person Shooter game released by Ubisoft, and the first game ever designed specifically for the Wii. This game has become infamous for its gameplay mechanics since before it came out due to its rushed release (the bane of every launch game), late design changes, and unfamiliarity with the new motion control scheme (especially expectations of 1:1 motion).If you're looking for the In Name Only sequel, see Red Steel 2. For the Dungeons & Dragons setting of the same name, see Mystara. | |

They Look Just Like Everyone Else! | |
| Red Steel (Video Game) / int_19a5d773 | comment |
They Look Just Like Everyone Else!: The Big Bad Tokai is only mentioned in passing for most of the game, but finally appears as a fairly average-looking young man (incidentally, the same one who shows up sometimes on loading screens). | |

Regenerating Health | |
| Red Steel (Video Game) / int_1f92e4c6 | comment |
Regenerating Health: An interesting variant. Regenerating Shield, Static Health is inverted in normal gameplay, with health regenerating while armor protects from all damage but needs a new vest to replenish it. During sword duels, however, your health doesn't regenerate until they're over, due to their generally slower pace meaning that you'd otherwise be able to endure anything that anybody could hit you with during them. | |

My Master, Right or Wrong: Even after Scott learns that Sato is a Yakuza boss, he stil follows his client's instructions and wishes. It helps that Sato was trying to go legitimate and that his daughter was kidnapped. | |

Breakable Weapons | |
| Red Steel (Video Game) / int_af8974a3 | comment |
Breakable Weapons: All katanas may be broken, with the exception of a couple enemies who use the Katana Giri against you when it gets stolen. It's an unusual variation in that the weapons in question wear out through action undertaken by you, rather than just from simple use. In-story Scott still finds use for such a weapon as well, taking a broken sword after his first sword duel and using it together with his regular one until he eventually upgrades to a proper tanto. | |

Standard FPS Guns | |
| Red Steel (Video Game) / int_bfc659ba | comment |
Standard FPS Guns: As standard as you get. Two pistol variants, a much stronger revolver, two nearly-identical submachine guns, your choice of a pump-action or semi-automatic shotgun, full-auto or burst-firing assault rifles, and a sniper rifle. The only real standout is that your Quick Melee option takes the form of shanking people with your tanto rather than a more standard knife or smacking people with your gun. | |
