from what i hear this may be the best game of the second half of '08, and as far as 3rd part developers are concerned, may be the best game yet. this is especially true for games being released on all the major consoles. will this change anything, or just fill us with a false sense of confidence and security?

Have  you seen any confirmed Wii screen shots? Because the 360 and PS3 versions are using the COD4 engine and the Wii doesn't have one of those.

I'm seriously reserving judgement on this until I can find more Wii specific items

Is there capture the flag mode? I need something else than ten different death match modes, where players just run in a merry-go-round. They said that Wii version has everything, but every day I hear about some feature that gets dropped. Online co-op. Im not mad that it isn't 4 player, I'm furious for it is not co-op at all, its "Mario Galaxy"-co op. Why not 2 player online co-op? No vehicle mode, thats fine, I can live with that. I don't need 32 players either, I play mostly with friends, so 8 players is just (barely) enough. But I cannot live with mere deathmath! I'm excited of Wiis ir-aiming so Wii version would be my first choice for any 1st person games. Any one got this already? Is there anything else in multiplayer department, than just deathmathes? If CF got dropped too...then devs, theres no explanation for this other than youre just milking Wii-customers!

i watched a video and from what i have seen, not all the online modes that are in the other versions like search and destroy and a few others are not optional in the wii version. too bad cause i enjoyed s and d on cod4, but i guess it wouldn't be much help if you cant talk to the other players since it's all about team work in those modes. oh well, the controls better be awesome cause i am placing that above the graphic, voice chat, those few missing modes, and team co-op.

S&D hardcore is the best part of CoD4. World at War has some cool new game modes like war where you work together to capture strategic points, kinda like BF2.

Just look up "Call of Duty World at War" on this site and scroll down to the Wii version.  It has many pics of the Wii version.  Looks great too.  Oh yeah, the Wii version also uses the Call of Duty 4 ENGINE.

it looks good for a Wii game but honestly it just looks a lot better on 360/PS3. Its just so much smoother and visually appealing.

Yeah, but the Wiimote aiming makes 1st person games so much more fluent and frankly next gen, that they are completely in another league. The feeling(this is important) of shooting makes it even better than othervice more agile mouse+keyboard combo. With last gen controllers gunplay is just awkward, and really not appealing at all. They make their gameplay gimped with autoaim and make the action look funny. But the developers don't seem to get this Wiimotes killer aplication(biggest rly until motion+ comes). If someone just would make 1st person shooter that doesn't suck, and game that is reduced only to deathmatch suck, it would instantly be the best game in its genre. And theres room even after Conduit. Its surely great game, but plasma weapons shooting ammo that are slower than tennis balls, and not to mention almost as effective, greatly reduces that (important)feeling. Also historical setting might be somewhat more inviting for us old scool boys, and certainly for the expanded audience.

And this is surprising?

You didn't have to buy a 360 to tell us multiplats don't look as good on the Wii.

I know, but, its just smoother running on the others. I can't explain it, its probably the frame rate.
