Same here - I'm only just catching my stride thirteen hours into the damn thing! (I do have to applaud the designers for building in a pretty brilliant degree of compartmentalization - as someone who rarely has the patience for gigantic sprawling games, it's a huge boost for the game to be structured by goals which can be accomplished in an hour or so, like "find the tears" or "get into the castle" or whatever. Maybe this has been an element of Zelda forever and it's just new to me since TP is the first Zelda I've ever owned and therefore had the time to obsess over; I 'unno.)

red steel is atrocious. terrible graphics (made worse by the fact that the game relies on long range shooting, often far away enemies can only be detected by gun fire or when they hit you), unresponsive controls, it is neither realistic nor fun to simulate opening a door with a flick of the nunchuck, so much time spent fucking around trying to escape through doors while getting shot the fuck up when a simple button press would suffice, ditto sword fighting, it just doesn't work. the music sounds like fucking propellerheads or some shit, like 10 minute tom rolls and played james bond melodies into atmospheric exhale drones/corny fake "j pop" drum n bass with insulting fake japanese vocals, terrible enemy ai and voice acting ("he's gone..", no i'm fucking not i'm shooting you in the head, dick). it's not so good. i just can't believe they fucked the controls up so bad, like who tests this shit?? how does it get through??

I'm surprised by how much fun most of these games still are, usually with emulators i'll play for a few seconds and then switch off but I was well into Robocod the other day. Alien Breed too was something I couldn't stop playing last night.
