Really such a fail review honestly, I'm usually behind Bozon's reviews but he got this one wrong big time, he complained about the controls I'm not sure if he found the "more options..." menu on the controls menu but if you put everything on max it will control much tighter then Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 on Wii.

The package all around is much more solid on CoD then MoH even the online and I'm saying that with only 8 players and friendcodes when I hate both... I mean really with the game set up the way it is I would only want 12 to 16 players max and it would be hell of a lot of fun, even now it is.

I only had one set of games with lag and it was individuals with horrible connections not the servers, every other time it's VERY solid online, easily 30-60 frame solid, no dips, and very visually pleasing. On my SD TV I played CoD4 on the 360 and now WaW on my Wii and I've gotta say it really keeps the solid looks.

Simply put I would recommend the Wii version for console only owners and PC version for anyone with a good PC.

So goodbye to COD 4 engine on the Wii then, its sad because of Treyarch's time and effort to push the Wii's hardware to the limits this is PC/PS360 engine we're talking about here. But I guess only few people buy this game so... Goodbye COD 4 engine, hardly even knew you.

And if you think this is Activision's wake up call if you didnt buy this game, then sorry it only make more reason for Activision to excuse themselves not to develop core games with good graphics because it didnt sell well.

Say hello to COD 3 ps2 engine again...

 

Huh? An 8 is a pretty good score. Reading the review it convinced me to get this game. I also think you'll be surprised about its sales. I won't be surprised if it sells close to a million. After all around 10 million Wii's will be sold in Nov/Dec and CoD is one of the few more mature titles available.

I think the difference between the Wii and PS360 reviews is retarded, but that's just the way it is. It's sad that the media still hasn't adapted to Wii. I have to say that I think Bozon's review is fair, but the discrepancy is too big imo.



I have both the xbox and the wii versions

i prefer the wii one anytime

guys you should stop reading game reviews they are all lame. better go to youtube and see videos there

and judge alone

in multiplayer reviews they don't mention the simple fact that wii controls are more fun than the boring gamepad

the online also is another part that i enjoy more in the wii version

the battles seem to last a little longer

in the xbox version each encounter with an enemy last 1 second sometimes less

so the gameplay seems boring u just walk around and u fall down with the 1st hit

maybe its similar to real life conditions but it hurts the online gameplay big time

as for the graphics the xbox has of course better ones but it loses so much in the controls department

this is for me what makes this game simply boring on xbox



Man, it seems that a lot of gamers have become total pancies these days. You won't buy a game because it has an 8 person multiplayer?

I mean seriously, that has to be one of the stupidest and most childish reasons i have heard thus far. If there's a good game coming out, and 8.0 games are good (especially since the grades given by ign really don't reflect their oppinion on it.)
than what's the problem?



Huh. Who would've thought that beggining anew in my real life would coincide with starting anew on vgchartz?

Any day now, the dollar will be worth less than 2 zloty......any day now.....and my life savings will be in total jepordy ;(.

Hmm, I really want to get this game, but reading the review, I know I probably shouldn't.

I really don't like deathmatch, I'd rather have objective based gameplay, even without communication possibilites. Also, no vehicles? No friggin zombie mode? Only 8 players?

That said, the review is kind of weird though. Bozon keeps telling us that the control isn't perfect, but still is really good, and the campaign is really intense, yet the gameplay looks to be the weak point of the game scoring only a 7.

He praises the graphics in the review, yet it gets a lower rating on graphics than Medal of Honor. Something just isn't right here.

But yeah, should I get it? I can't wait to play a nice FPS on the Wii again, but the game just feels so gimped!

 

Well... while it IS gimped compared to the HD consoles, it is a damn good game on it's own.

The graphics are pretty good, except for the horrible character models. The fire looks amazing, and when there are trees and stuff you can see that the graphics are good. I dunno how or why but the trees look amazing lol. Also, the explosions and smokes look awesome.

Only bad point IMO is the frame rate because it's not even 30 FPS locked. I mean come on, it's a shooter.. it NEEDS a solid frame rate and while it doesn't slow down a lot it does at the worst points.

Controls are very good, just not MoHH2 good.

All in all, this is the best FPS on the Wii IMO.

this is true!! : ) 

i have the Wii version, it's as great as you say, also, 8 people online than 16 is so stupid reason, for god's sake!!

 

the Wii version and HD versions are identical except conrols and graphics, IGN has lost it (not the 1st time)
