Just a little while ago, it seemed like the Wii might just be a gutter for Spongebob games and lazy PS2 ports. But things are changing - and that's good. Dragon Blade may suffer from a painfully generic title, but it befits the content of the game: a hack-and-slash adventure where your sword has been possessed by the spirit of a powerful red dragon. Better yet, the game looks to marry traditional adventure gameplay with Wii Remote control.
Sometimes you have to slog through the beginning of a video game, hoping and assuming that the first level or two of bland and boring gameplay will lead to something better.
Surely a game couldn't hit the market and sell for about $50 if it was really that dull and underwhelming?
Unfortunately, sometimes first impressions are accurate. And the final word on "Dragon Blade: Wrath of Fire" for the Nintendo Wii from D3 Publisher of America is that it's just as bad as it seems.
What promise? It was worse looking than a N64 game, had terrible camera and level design and more problems.
Well when first announced a lot of Wii owners were thrilled of the consept of this game. I was one of them. Sadly this game should not be bought and you can quote me on that. Bad game I bought it and ugh...
Gamespot hands Dragon Blade: Wrath of Fire a 4.0 declaring it a wimpy action game easy on the wrist, but hard on the eyes.
I think it's a bit too much. I mean, it's a full $50 game and yet looks like a PSone game ripping of God Of War and failing. If this disaster gets a 4 then Conan should get 11 out of 10.

that sucks for wii owners, but i really havent heard about this game til now, so hmmmm unless im wrong, but i dont think alot of people were watching for this one
Sure, the PS3 and 360 have Devil May Cry 4, but the fortunate Wii owners get something entirely original - in theory and in name, at least - in the form of Dragon Blade: Wrath of Fire. It takes elements of action RPGs of yore and tosses them together in a very pretty, if strictly linear, fantasy setting. Add to this a whole bunch of flaming weapons and a lot of cool effects and you have yourself a tasty proposition and our immediate attention.
