EA is choosing to give Wii owners an awesome visual horror experience, at the expense of a free-roaming environment. They can hone the constrained rails environment to a fine edge, and it will look spectacular on the Wii -- probably very close to what the HD console Dead Space looked like on a 480p display. Heck, maybe better.
If only owned a Wii, I might gladly take hot-looking-game-on-rails over a free-roamer that looked meh. The Wii only has like 24MB of texture memory, you know.
