Metroid Prime 3 may be an FPA, but it's shooting elements are still better than 99% other console shooters.

Ah no, lock on FTL.

Doesn't matter. It still proves that FPS are best on the Wii.

Red steel says hi and so does 360 and PS3.BTW dats the stupidest thing i have ever and ur a real sheep

Hour of Victory says hi. You lemmings/cows are all in denial. The Wii is BEST for FPS. I didn't say it, Gametrailers and IGN did. GET OVER IT.

ok 360 is a shooter system i don't expect all of them to get AA or A.One of them is going to do bad out of all the amount they have

"Red steel says hi"

"One of them is going to do bad"

Okay, I guess you just proved yourself wrong.

Well guessed wrong then.What im saying is that out of all the shooters 360 has,the odds of it having a very bad shooter is big because 360 library of shooters is big and because they have the most games out

But apparantly, according to IGN and Gametrailers, the Wii is better for FPS.

Noooo, they said that the controls are better. Thats all. Controls are just one aspect of a game.

A very important aspect. And better controls will contribute to better gameplay.

I was just about to respond with that... But yeah, I would much rather have a game play well than a game just looking well. After those two aspects, an FPS can go anywhere.

Why do shooters need top of the line graphics to be good? I think that's stupid.

And what about graphics, AI, physics, and online multiplayer? Those are all "very important" too, yet the Wii has no chance of being better in those areas.

I also fail to see what controls really have to do with gameplay, in the general sense. As a hermit who has argued the superiority of the mouse for years with console people, I can tell you that controls only go so far.

Okay, I'll use MP2 and MP3 as an example. MP3 has much more convinient controls than MP2, therefore more enemies can be attacking you at once. More enemies = more action= more fun. Graphics, I don't see why they would matter to anyone who's not a graphics whore. I think Wii could handle the AI and physics. SSBB is using a physics engine that a lot of other 360 and PS3 games are using. Online might be a problem, however shooters can be good without online cough cough Bioshock.

Your example doesn't really work. Wouldn't aim-assistance or more powerful weapons give you the same effect?

I'm feeling nice today, and pretend you didn't just use the term "graphics whore".

SSBB is 2D game, therefore all physics are in 2D. GameCube, PS2, and Xbox all used Havok too, ya know...just because SSBB licensed their physics from the same company as PS3 games it doesn't mean Wii is capable of the same kind of physics.

I'd sacrifice some graphics, physics, and AI for Wii controls, but that's my opinion.

[QUOTE="gingerdivid"]It could be argued that Metriod is a FPS.sexy_chimp

I think Metroid is an FPSAA. A First Person Shooter Adventure Action game. That's what I call it.

Bingo. Well done. :)

Adding on to that last post, only if the game was on the Xbox or PS3, and not the PC.

[QUOTE="samusarmada"]Both IGN and gametrailers say that the shooting in corruption kicks dual analogue out the window.

Lilac_Benjie

I like to word it like this.

Halo: CE introduced console duel analogue. Metroid Prime 3 renders it obsolete.

MP3 is an exception. It's one of Nintendo's three flagship franchises (Mario, Zelda). If Wii can do this in a real FPS, that would be fantastic. And it's not like they can't. MP3 proves that the greatest controls in a FPS ever in a console can be done on the wii. So why can't other companies and Nintendo itself do more FPS?

Um...it's a shooter. You're killing people, aliens whatever. The more realistic they look, the more fun it is to kill them. Sounds psycho, but unless they're photo-realistic graphics, incredibly made enviroment and opponents makes the game more immersive and opponents much more fun to kill, thus enhancing the gameplay.

No... no it isn't. It doesn't follow the standards of actual console FPS's. Most console FPS's pit you against many enemies over different levels with simple A-B level structure. Metroid Prime lets you freely explore a vast world using puzzles as a main way of providing resistance to player movement. It may be in first-person and may have shooting elements but it is NOT a First Person Shooter. Heck, Myst is in First Person, does that make it a First Person Shooter? No. The Metroid Prime series (not including Hunters) is a First Person Action-Adventure game. One that puts as much, if not more emphasis on exploration and puzzle solving as it does shooting.

Crystal ball theory FTL!

There is no evidence to prove that the Wii cannot have good physics and AI, it takes very little processing power to have good AI, physics is a whole different ball game though. First off you need a good physics engine and that takes developing time, I am 100% positive that the Wii would have no trouble running something likethe Half Life 2 physics engine in a game. The Wii has proven to have a good working online system with Mario Strikers, plus we have Batallion Wars 2 coming out which will be online and if Smash Bros Brawl is online, maybe then all you Wii haters will STFU about how it has no good online. There are more online games coming as well and even Metroid has an achievements system.

And please dont call the game in the sticky above a FPS.

The wii really needs a AAA killer app online FPs to seal the deal among the hardcore.

So what your saying is that MP3 is a Next Gen FPS. A FPS that's not mindless, doesn't include all grey scale colours, 20 hours long (this is extremely long for a FPS), a almost perfect control scheme and most likely could be game of the year.

the new medal of honor seems like it could really open up some online wii FPS action, they even sacrificed normal spilt screen to just focus on 32 player online.

Itis a FPA/FPS hybrid. But the adventure part usually far outweighs the FPS portions of Metroid Prime games, therefore it is labeled a FPA. FPS have a lot more action andshooting portions and far less puzzle solving in them. Metroid Prime games have a lot more puzzle solving and a lot less shooting, making it much more of a FPA than FPS.

Nope. If you want a good shooter then the Wii is the last place you should look.dracula_16

Play RE4 for the Wii and say it is not one of the best shooters ever improved.
