How would you feel if someone gave Killzone2 a 7 without seeing multiplayer

It is extremely rare too see a high rated shooter with poor graphics. For shooter fans (in general), graphics are very important, and seem to play a greater role in creating immersion than in other genres.

This reviewer took it too far, but too my mind he has a point. From the outset when Nintendo created the Wii with the specifications they did, they were choosing to ignore much of the shooter market.

Well to be fair, the shooter market was a seedling last generation in comparison to this one on consoles. Nintendo didn't really "choose to ignore" anyone. The two HD consoles created a dominant shooter market and happened to be graphical powerhouses in comparison to the Wii. So yes, Nintendo is having trouble benefitting from it, but it wasn't really there as they were planning out the Wii to be a deciding factor on how powerful to make the console.

In my opinion though, I think the failure lies more in the lazily implemented online setup the Wii has, as opposed to the dip in graphics.
