Red Steel.

Call of Duty maybe second, but it got bashed when put into Wii.

Red Steel was Designed for Wii, so its got cool controls.

And prepare yourself for Idiot "Use Search Comments" Just ignore em.

I would have to go with COD3. I really don't care much for the sword fighting on Red Steel. COD3 is constant action and stuff is always going on around you. Plus, I enjoy hearing COD3 with my Logitech Z5500 surround sound!

Ya haha, not much help :P

Both games have had their rants, but public is public. Both im sure are fun. Im borrowing Red Steel from someone tonight, so i get to try it. And since im borrowing red steel i may buy Call of Duty 3 later on.

Red Steel has smart Ai's i heard. Call of Duty has more to kill im sure tho :P

Well, let me put it also like this. I've beatin COD3 and would play it again to explore alittle more. RedSteel on the other hand, you have to kinda follow the direction it points you in. Meaning, you can't go thru every door that is in a building or room. YOu are only allowed to go into select doors so that you stay on track. I like games where you can explore alittle bit instead.

If you want a game with TONS of killing and exploring tho, Farcry is the bomb lol. Levels r HUGE. Too bad they shitted on the graphics a bit. i love it either way tho.

I'll have to recheck...but i could've sworn that COD got much better reviews than RedSteel on Gamespot and IGN.

Just checked:
IGN: COD3 = 7.7
RedSteel = 6.0

GameSpot: COD3 = 7.2
RedSteel = 5.5

I can tell you not to waste money on ultimate alliance, unless you're a die-hard marvel fan. Very Repetitive and boring. I played for 3 hours to give it a chance and became extremely bored.

I have CoD3, and it is pretty fun. Action is always going on, and it's only problem is no multiplayer. I don't have red steel, but I heard it was pretty bad.

I would get COD3 i ahve both and red steal is fun but COD3 is much more action packed. Its storyline is better too since its real history lol. I love COD3 and hte controls are about the same. COD3 has little bit better graphics not much. But its in surround sound!

also splinter cell double agent is a fun game too. Except for the BUZZZ and freeze glitch that happens. I only had it happen once. But I Almost finished it and hasnt happened since.
