I disliked the sword mechanics in both TP and Red Steel. In the former it was just static animations that (closely) mimicked your movements, and in the former there was a pause inbetween the real swing and the game swing, which made it feel like pressing a button (which defeats the purpose of motion-sensing, pretty much).
On the bright side, I semi-officially have a girlfriend now. And in case you're wondering, she's the one who kicked me before. And then later kissed me.
Girls are weird.
