Forums - Nintendo Discussion - IGN gives COD: WAW an 8.0 FAR LOWER than MOH:H2

No wonder it takes 10 minutes for a room to be full and everyone can play as someone posted on IGN boards. Do you know that some people bought the game not because of multiplayer right?

@Leni----> Just let them be, they never knew what they have now till they lost it.

 

Sounds like poor matchmaking.

Not really, gamespin the one that first showed us the gameplay videos on youtube says he cant go through online because no one playing it online. Mind you, this is pre-release date when he post that BUT STILL...

Well I have the game and this game is intense on Wii haha. I mean I'm sure it's intense on PS360 but I think wiimote controls make it even more intense.

I'll be real with people about it... this game is not MOHH2 haha. But it has it's tradeoffs. The controls are nowhere near MOHH2 but if you play it long enough you will adapt and you'll hardly notice they aren't as solid. But the best trade off is this online beats the crap out of MOHH2. NO LAG which is expected with only 8 players but it's good to know.

As for graphics it has it's moments of being good and it's has its not so great moments. But it is definitely one of the better looking Wii titles, especially the effects.


So here's the lowdown for people looking to buy it. This is a great online shooter and if you are looking for that on Wii then I'd probably even recommend it over MOHH2. However if you can wait, The Conduit is probably going to be a better package. But your not wasting your money by getting this game on the Wii.

from what i get by reading bozon review he gave it a decent score but he is to harsh when comparing it to xbox360 or even ps3 game. a lot but a lot of sites do the samething when they review a wii port it gets that kind of treatment they always say why did the wii get left out of these particular things or what have u. but people who have wii or people in this site know that it will not have everything that is on the ps3 or xbox360 their disc alone hold more info than the standard dvd disc. and plus their graphics will be better we all know that. it is fair questions to ask the developers but it is not fair to knock the wii version because of it.

"The objective matches and vehicles are out, so you won't get tanks, any of the CTF, Search and Destroy, Headquarters, or War mode, but what is in there runs smooth."

so okay we don't these in the wii version they should be asking the developers why they left these out of the wii version instead of holding these particular things over wii's head. i knew the wii would not have dismemberments shoot they didn't have real fatalities in mortal kombat 1 on snes they even had green blood. they should ask the developers these particular question instead of probably taking points away from wii version.

"Multiplayer is a bit thin on modes, but what's there works very well, and is a blast to play."

so bozon u liked the multiplayer modes right or u going to take points again because it doesn't have all the features on the ps3 and xbox360.

ign should have a blind reviewers that play the game on a particular machine and they can't play it on any other system when giving a review for a particular system. just give me a fair review and tell me if u liked it is it good i could careless if the xbox or ps3 has this and wii version doesn't. but i can see were they are coming from.



Whoow! Have to say this game looks awesome for a console which tech is similar to the Cube and on par with the Xbox!... It can compete with CoD2/3 on the 360 sort of... Not the textures etc... But the overall look is stunning!... Have to give props to treyarch for pushing this system!!!

And for the score: We know it's the Wii... So IGN shouldn't be bashing it like this because it 'doesn't look as good as on the HD-consoles'... Because that's obvious! For the console! It's totally awesome and stunning visually! At least an 8.5-8.7!!! So that people who read the review know their dealing with an awesome game!

I think the Wii-Version will sell good. Crappy ign reviews will not change that. :)

Most reviewers of multiplat Wii-games often compare the Wii-Version to the PS360-Version, that's fine. But why don't they do same the other way around? The PS360 controls are bad compared to the Wii controls, especially on shooters.



Having now played both MOH:Heroes 2 and COD:WAW I can say that COD blows it outta the latter outta the water. Ok I own COD4 on 360 and am surprised how well the core mechanics have translated to Wii so while I loved the 32 player action on MOH:H2 it still can't match the 8 player CODWaW!

I kinda wanted more of the same in COD:WaW 360 and even with the Wii version and it's missing features has seen me preorder both versions!
