IR is better FPS control than Mouse & Keyboard

One thing I'd like to see them implement is the ability to blind-fire behind you while running. They could easily accomplish this, as since blind-fire isn't accurate, they just need to know the general direction the Wii-mote's facing.

This... is an awesome idea. Aiming the wiimote behind you over your shoulder to shoot backwards... oh the possibilities.

 

I'm with the OP here. I'm not a big fan of FPS on consoles because I can't get a hang of the controls well enough to be any good (or at least good against humans). On the PC, this problem is lessened, but I don't get quite the enjoyment out of it, since multiplayer is never next to you (unless you have LAN parties...), and [local] multiplayer is one of the things I like most about games. So the Wii controls give the best of both worlds - good enough accuracy, and easy enough controls, with the ability to have local multiplayer (though only CD3 had it, so still waiting on that...). Overall, it's just a more enjoyable experience.

With Wii Motion+ Addon it should be possible to take the Wii Remote over the shoulder and blind shoot or this and possible turn the camera in a limited way so it looks like the charter turns the head slightly back.
