If you think the PS3 and 360 versions are amazing, you need to see what it's like on the PC. I don't know if they fixed the issues on FPSs played on dual analogs, but they felt like they were played in slow motion when I tried them out last gen. The PC fixes that issue. Battlefield on the Wii would be great IF they could get at least 32 players online.

If you want 32 player online you go to Medal of Honor Heroes 2.

When the Wii gets a better online service, that's when the Wii will get better online games.

MoH Heroes 2 and World at War work slick and fast in wii online MP. But if you feel like you're missing out on something significant with BF1943, maybe you have the wrong console.

You could also play them on the PC. Get Half-Life and Day of Defeat + Natural Selection. Natural Selection in particular exhibits a greatness unmatched by any team-based FPS I have ever played. BF1942 should run on your PC as well, unless it is quite old.

It's not the same. CTF is alright, but it's not taking over territory and holding it.

I don't really want one.

The Conduit is good enough, in my opinion.

The Conduit was our ticket for developers to open their eyes and see the Wii as a console that fits well with this genre, but with all the wrongful trash talking from gamers(many on here) and moronic reviewers giving it incredibly underrated scores, sales will not be as good as the game deserves and the chance for an even greater FPS is lost.

We only have 3 decent FPS games that are considered decent.

Call of Duty: World at War

Medal of Honor: Heroes 2

The Conduit

they all have their strengths, and weaknesses compared to one another, but they are fun if you enjoy the genre.

If you're expecting anything close to the equivlant of what the ohter consoles can do, you might as well go buy that console. Wii has the ability to produce a decent online service, but it's just not going to compare.

I just can't believe there aren't more FPS, and we haven't had one 3rd person shooter on the system unless you count RE4.

Why do people say that? Not everyone would enjoy a shooter on the PS3 or 360. Dual analog has a way of killing the fun.

that's not it at all.

there are quality titles (that I mentioned above) when it comes to Wii's capabilites.

The problem is, companies aren't giving us any. They aren't compareable to the other consoles, no, but that doesn't mean they're not good games.

I think The Conduit and MOH Heroes 2 are up there with the likes of Reistance 2, Halo 3, and Call of Duty 4. I have fun playing all those games.

I think we have enough good ones for now.

Call of Duty and The Conduit. I'm not really a fan of the Conduit but I play WaW everyday. Never gets old to me.

But i'm sure they will release something good in the future.

It has occured to me that in over 2 1/2 years time the Wii does not have an online FPS that is lag free :( Batallion Wars 2, Mario Kart Wii, Rock Band and Guitar Hero franchises, and I'm sure a couple other titles experience zero lag. I'm enjoyed The Conduit's online for the rental time that I had with it though.

If it's going to happen, I would say it will happen very late in the Wii's life. This is when all of the technology (developmental, and hardware-based) have been paid for (many times over). This means that there will be a) lower production costs b) larger audiences c) refined infrastructure for online connectivities.

Yeah, if you love FPS then the WIi won't satisfy your cravings. But hey, I enjoy The Conduit a lot and I have played many FPS games. It's so hard going back to Dual-Analog Sticks after racking up hours into The Conduit. :P COD4 is still the top game though.

World at War is great! One problem with the game is I can't seem to hit people when they're running, it may be a glitch or I'm just bad at aiming. Another is the number of players online. It would've been the best online FPS in my opinion if there was atleast 6 vs 6.

I'm crossing my fingers. I hope The Grinder turns out better than The Conduit. Don't get me wrong I like The Conduit but I think the online needs to be changed. Too many glitches, and much too long of a wait to get into a game, also the fact that you can't party up with friends before entering a public game makes meeting up with a few friends difficult. Hopefully The Grinder can fix any issues and turn a good game into a great game. Like I said I'll keep my fingers crossed.
