I love FPS.

 

When I first learned of the Wii controls I immediately began salivating over the many possibilities for FPS games. Since the release I've been sorely dissappointed with the amount of FPS content.  After reading reviews of call of duty 3 I decided not to purchase. MY desicion was based almost entirely on the fact that I've heard that the controls are sloppy.

 

Was that the right choice?

The controls on CoD3 are really good and it makes great use of the remote. Sadly, the game really isnt that great and it's way too short. I'd advise Red Steel over CoD3 only because it's a bit longer and has better level design (even though the voice acting sucks and the controls are too sensitive).  Also, CoD3 has no multiplayer, Red Steel does.

I prefer MoH Vanguard since the review are bad for this game you can rent it. The controls and graphics in Vanguard are superior than COD 3 (my opinion) The cover system in Vanguard works well you hold A on the Wiimote and with the nunchuk stick you can peak left right and up. A  FPS should have a great peaking system when you are in cover.

Yeah RS has better value for money and there's little to pick between them in terms of quality. But I still have to say COD3 is the better FPS personally.

It's okay, but not a must-have.  Especially with no multi.

That peaking system sounds dope.

 

I  could care less about multiplayer honestly... It's sharp controls I'm looking for. And I've beaten COD 3 on my xbox already.... so story isn't an issue.

 

Maybe vangaurd is the way to go.

I would say no, wayyyy to short, and no multiplayer. Also annoying howyou have to sit through the opening sequence of each chapter every time you load it

Controls in COD 3 work really well, and are the best we have seen so far. The game itself, is really short, and the graphics are lackluster.

Their is no multiplayer either. - id say RENT IT.

CoD3 controls are pretty decent, but it looks absolutely horrendous. To the point where it's barely playable. If you want a Wii-FPS, I suggest Red Steel. Highly underrated once you get the hang of it.

I'd "rent" it if you have the ability to, and when i say rent i mean buy it used from gamestop, beat it in less than 6 days, and return it for full store credit. im doing that now, and its very fun.  red steel is a better buy, imo
