It's nice to know that while Corruption may not have anywhere near the graphical muscle of it's 360/PS3 counterparts, it still looks fantastic. Score one for the art department!

As for the game itself. I'm cautiously optimistic that the Wii FPS control scheme will be an improvement over traditional controls. Very cautious.

Personally, I think at some point the controls will be better than a game pad, but still inferior to a keyboard/mouse. There are a few obvious obstacles to overcome, and it's simply going to take some clever thinking to circumvent them. 

The easiest and most important example is centering: if you're pointing the Wii remote at the screen, and are already on the far left side, it's hard to turn farther left. With a mouse, you simply pick it up, put it back on the center of the mouse pad, and drop it again. Done. Nothing like that is immediately possible on the Wii mote, but I can think of a few lame ways to get around the problem. We'll see. 

Please note that I say this will be true at some point: it may not be Metroid Prime that jumps all these hurdles.
