"bringing multiplayer would attract some people" ?. if its great like 100's or 95's in review scores cause of its controls and multiplayer, you think it will only attract some people?. i think it will attract a LOT of people, even "fps nerds" that are so used to the mouse if they heard the wiimote is a lot better would buy wiis, not like wii sales needed more moving, but still, i bet it would attract a lot of people.. " how can that be less valid?. even if i havent played MP, i still think its valid.. and naznatips im not trying to put down the game, i know it can hold its own with just single player, but wouldnt multiplayer be great?. and this might sound something coming out from from "LA LA" land or something but what about a "perfect" single mode with great multiplayer.. devs might surprise you.. but like i said im really interested with MP3, and reading about how its wii's biggest chance to capture the fps genre, i think multiplyer could really help it.. and retro was thinking about multiplayer which meant it was probable before.. and what other multiplayer fps with wiimote controls game?. |
No, you don't understand. It's hard to get you to understand when you haven't played it. I never thought you were trying to put down the game, I just understand that you really have no clue what kind of game you are trying to force a multiplayer into. The place I highlighted is where you go wrong. That's where your entire argument goes way off in the distance. Metroid Prime 3 is NOT AN FPS. Metroid is a First Person Adventure. Yes, the primary form of combat is guns, but it's an adventure game not a shooting game. Metroid is no more an FPS than Resident Evil 4 is just a 3rd person shooter. You don't understand the game, so you are really arguing that a game you don't know much about should have a feature that isn't good for it's style of play.
As far as better options: Red Steel 2 should have online multiplayer. No, Red Steel wasn't good, but it was a rushed release title. A from the ground up shooter for the Wii built with time and money with good controls is what the Wii needs for online play. METROID IS NOT THAT GAME. I really am tired of trying to explain this to someone who hasn't played the games before, because they don't understand.
Shams, I turned on MP2's multiplayer once and never touched it again. I have beaten the single player 3 times 100% completion though.
