I like the fact that this took me back to the days of Area 51 in the arcade. It was rather nice remembering that. I enjoy the shooting and what not, but with what the game was trying to do, they should have stuck where previous success prevailed.

Pros:
-Plays like an arcade shooter... er... sort of.

Cons:
-Reload button (why not just shoot off screen?)
-The game is just not fun. -Same crap, different room.

Game motto:
"You kill that guy, and that guy, oh god look he is hiding behind a plant again..."

Please for the love of god don't buy this game new. GameStop and what not only give you 5 dollars credit for it. Wii Play gets more $ than this paper weight.
