Forums - Nintendo Discussion - My Friend Wants Wii FPS recommendations

Call of Duty 4 : Reflex wii is by far the best one on the wii. Call of Duty W@W up next but online full of trick jumpers and glitch exploiters now sadly ... . Medal of Honor Heroes 2 is a solid title 32 multiplayer online great controls.

MP3 is the best if you consider it a FPS.

I still need to get Call of Duty: Modrrn Warfare... World at War is pretty good though.

MOH: Heroes 2 is a great game for as cheap as you can probably find it now. The controls are great.

If he wants an on rail shooter, tell him to get Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles or HoTD: 2 and 3 The Return. Dead Space Extraction is horrible. Don't listen to those suggestions.

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. 

Sorry about the abbreviation.

I notice nobody is saying "The Conduit". I thought that game was supposed to be pretty good.

Well it's getting a sequel. That's about all I know about it. Oh, and it didn't sell very well, lol.



Bah!

Its a good game but the best part is the multiplayer (when its not full of cheaters), and Toddifer already cleared that the friend its looking for a good SOLO game, and that's the worst part of The Conduit. In that case the others are better options.

Well, Call of Duty 4 is out for the Wii. How bad could it be? And, Red Steel 2 looks really, really good!

This!

 

It's an FPA but your friend should try Metroid Prime 3 or Metroid Prime Trilogy!

Well like I said I had recommended RE4, and he said no to it. But he didn't say he was against first person adventure games in general, he just said that if he were going to play a zombie game he'd prefer to not be hunting the zombies but rather be the zombie himself that is hunting down and trying to eat people, which I can respect. So maybe Metroid is a way to go...


FANBOY RAGE: NO, THEY ARE NOT ZOMBIES!!!! THEY ARE GANADOS AND THEY ARE INFECTED HUMANS!!!!!!!
Sorry, it just bothers me every time someone calls them zombies.

He didn't give me a lot of details about what he was looking for, but I do know this much.

He only owns a a Wii. He does enjoy playing games online (example: we both play UNO online via Wii, and he likes that), so presumably an online component would be good. Also, he just recently purchased the Wii (couple months ago - thanks tax refunds!), so he only has a couple games, like NSMBWii, Wii Sports, and I think Wii Play. Also, he lives alone and works really odd/varying shifts/hours, so I think a solid single-player experience would be key for him. I do not know of any prior consoles he owned, so details beyond that are kind of sparse. I will have to ask him for more specifics...

Based on your answers...Tell him to test some of this:

The Conduit has a good Multiplayer component AND is very cheap
Red Steel 2 is a great 1 player only game BUT requires Motion+
Call of Duty Modern Warfare and World at War, are good in both 1 player and Online multiplayer

Try at least 1 Onrails shooter, Dead Space Extraction its great and its cheap, or for something with a more arcade feeling House of the Dead its a good choice.

 

Okay so I got some more details: He doesn't care at all about an online component, as his hours are wacky and he knows he'd rarely find someone to play and then when he did he'd probably get destroyed and that would frustrate him, so mostly he's looking for a good 1st person story and single player experience. He said he doesn't want to be 'guided' through the game, so that, I would assume, would mean no on-rail types. Plus he said he used to have a game for the original Playstation in which he went and killed Nazis, so if there was something that would fit that bill he'd enjoy that a lot. I'm assuming that really only leaves Call of Duty?

given this i'd say Metroid Prime Trilogy (great story and experience, you are NEVER "guided" through the game, on the contrary you have to explore and figure the way out to proceed. they are 3 of the best games ever in one package)and Call of Duty: MWR (best war fps you can find on wii. period.)
