Now for their next trick - figuring out how to get FPS to SELL on the Wii.


It's a shame MoH:H2 isn't selling better. Not a great game, IMO, but poor sales will result in few FPS on Wii.

MoH has 2 things going against it:

The WW2 theme. We've had far too many since the month apart release of MoH: Allied Assault and RTCW back in (I think 2001).  

The stench of EA. Not sure how much of an impact this has, but my guess is it has enough. When BioWare sold out to EA they had probably around 100 pages of posts saying some variant of "I will never buy anything BioWare again, and I've been a loyal fan since the beginning. Enjoy getting raped by EA." EA has made a very, very negative name for itself over the years.
