medal of honors control is exceptional.

but yea when iot comes to fps on the wii check on review sites before you buy. but finding a review site might be hard....

I agree with everyone before me, don't judge a genre of video games on a console unless you have at least tried 3 of that genre.

Also, the Wii Zapper is making it better for FPS.

Metroid Prime 3 is an excellent adventure-FPS hybrid but the Wii really does need more.

MOH:H2 is decent but overall has way too many drawbacks. No split-screen multiplayer both online and offline is my biggest complaint. The physics and graphics in the game are PSP quality, the Wii can do much better. The campaign mode is somewhat shallow (not really a big deal though). On the bright side the game does have good basic controls, and the online is lagfree. But if I see anouther WW2 shooter I might just barf.

I'm hoping that Nintendo steps up and makes a must-buy console-selling FPS game to compete with the likes of Halo. The Wii-mote is perfect for FPS games and it amazes me that no one has even tried to make a cult FPS game for the Wii. I'm still hoping that Timesplitters 4 is a Wii exclussive and at the very least included on Wii.

edit: A headset would be nice too.

Actually, the wii zapper isn't that great.

Metroid was great, and MOH:H2 is amazing (especially online), But I'm wondering why the crap there's only two good ones. Start making more shooting games! thats practically what the wii was meant for!

Also, I'm praying to God that someone figures out how to make splitscreen on the wii, and gets frickin online chat! If someone figures out how to do that, their game will sell out as well as the wii did.(and still is)

From what I have heard the Wii Zapper is pretty bad. But a third party gun works very well.

So you ranted about something without having any information on the subject?

Well it's not the first time it's been done here but I can't say it's something you should try regularly

Just a point about the Wii zapper, if you play at ranges between two and three metres from your TV the zapper is superb. The only FPS designed for it is Medal of honour heroes 2 at the moment and for some bizzare reason i rock when using the zapper in multiplayer and suck when using the elite default controls. The zapper adds that bit of extra stability making it possible to get a head shot with a .45 at it's maximum range of 50 metres (god how it suprised me that a developer bothered with actual combat ranges in FPS, usually they make you blast each other at point blank range or rely on a sniper rifle for anything beyond 30 metres). As for CoD3 i traded it in because of the dire snap to grid aimng bug that occurs in every level causing you to swivel endlessly, even far cry wasn't as broken and i managed to enjoy that til the ending. Metroid 3 is brilliant but for different reasons as like most FPS games it relies on the point blank shoot an dodge mechanics, but it is done very well, simplistic but well. I enjoyed red steel, that is only poor due to the katana fighting not being to everyone's taste, the gun fughts are great imo. haven't tried MoH vangaurd so cannot comment on that, but if i was reviewing CoD3 was the worst(even if it did get good reviews on GS, they are wrong).
