Tough luck. Get over it. When you bought your wii, you should have known what product you were buying and what games would be available for such product. I knew exactly what I was getting when I bought my wii, a good bit of amazing games with great controls that both were and will be coming out and then a bunch of carnivalish games and lousy ports. But if you wanted to play the version of Dead Space on the 360 and PS3 you should have bought one of those systems to play it. EA never lied to you, never said it was porting that game, it's your own fault for thinking they would. The quality of this title can still be great, but if you wanna whine because it's not a TPS just don't buy it don't act like someone stole your lolipop when you were five over it. Sheesh.

 

The point is people on the wii want to play a 3rd person shooter with the wiimote. I have a 360 and don't want to play it there.

And my point is, when you bought your wii did you see any TPS games coming out? I don't think so. Furthermore, EA never claimed this was going to be, you yourself put that stupid thought into your head. It's rediculous to complain to EA for that. Along with EA, go complain to every other publisher about their games not being TPSs too. 1) When I bought my Wii, I saw the trends that were going on and knew what I was getting into and I don't blame anyone else for it. While the public has adopted the wii, developers haven't. Developers want to push graphics and the technical side as much as they can. That's what developers have done through time and why developers begin to make games, 2) technically they like to push the boundaries as much as they can. The only thing publishers are going to want to publish is cash ins and ports so they can then get your money and then use it to make next generation games and push the evelope. If you want to bitch to someone, bitch at Nintendo for limiting the technical capabilities of the system to what they are now. When the next wii comes out and is in HD it will blow away the competition, and rightfully so, but until then we got what we payed for.

 

 

1) most people on here would of baught a Wii at launch. There was no real trend that could be determined as a fair few core attempts at games come out. Just look at the games that come out at launch Zelda, Red Steel, Far Cry, Call of Duty 3. Sure msot were not that great and had bugs in it. However did any of these games indicate at launch that the Wii would be an on-rails system?

 

2) technically you say, you do realise that a NEW FORM OF CONTROLS is a technical boundary? Just because it isn't easily seen on screen (i.e GFX), being able to control something in a new way which ENHANCES game experience is a thing as you put it that "push the envelope".

There have been developers who have bitches about the Wii remote being to hard to program for to get a FPS game type right? Well if they REALLY like to "push the envelope" they wouldn't be so scared and take on this technical challenge.

 

 

 

BACK ON POINT

 

I agree with OP, but he has gone about it the wrong way. The aim shoudl be to point out that their are games liek RE4, COD, MP3, MOH that do work without the need of being on rails.

 

Will I be dissapointed? probably not as long as the story of the game is good. Otherwise I would rather an RTS style game to make it more interesting.
