What games are people expecting Epic to bring to the Wii? Gears of War is impossible because of the hardware issue and so too is the new Unreal Tournament 3.

I don't see what people find so hard to understand about the company's choice. There is no money to be made for them on the Wii so why should they bother when they are profiting immensely from Gears of War. I've heard people complain about Epic making Unreal Tournament 3 and not concentrating on Gears 2 enough. What would happen if they created a Wii game.

For a cutting edge next-gen developer, the Wii is a step back in terms of what developers such as Epic are trying to achieve in their games. They can't go much further than what was achieved on the Gamecube, where on the 360 and PS3 they can go beyond what's already been done so you see their engine being used in games such as Mass Effect and Bioshock. These games will never be able to work on the Wii.

1. Not that many of us are asking for them to make a game for the Wii. We just think his excuse sucks.

2. Wrong. The Wii is forward, just not AS forward. It would have to have LESS specs than the 6th gen to be a step backwards. That makes that line from him, and you agreeing with it, an outright lie.
