Red Steel 2 Behind the Character on Nintendo gaming news, videos and discussion

Ubisoft have put together a short video describing the mysterious protagonist from Red Steel 2, and how he came to be.

Why the long coat and hat? An eagle on his sword? Two members from the team at Ubisoft discussed some of the decision making behind the lead character in the sequel, and why they chose to present him, and subsequently the game itself, in this way.

That second guy is a complete numpty, he moves too muchm he's too expressive. Puts me off the character IMO. Still good game I think (hope)

Yeah the 2nd guy is freaky. I think I've seen him before though... in another interview?

Heh, main guy looks like a brown-coated version of Vash (Trigun) and Alucard (Hellsing), and that\'s definitely not a bad thing. Though they did probably rip those guys off when creating Mr. Mainy.

~Getting on C3's massive tits since 2K5.~

Or maybe the got inspiration from the same place that inspired the Alucard and Vash designers - American Westerns.

Oooooooh. This excites meSmilie. This seems much better than the regular old middle aged guy who got his wife stolen. Smilie

I've never quite seen the designs I saw on Vash/Alucard on any Cowboys, but if you're willing to link me to some stuff?
