Oh come on. Why do Wii/HD cross-plats have to be compared with each other?

Rainbow Six: Vegas came out on PSP and PS3, and yet the PSP one doesn't get knocked because it doesn't look as good as the PS3 version.

Wii shooters should not be compared against the HD versions. Not the same league. Why is this so hard for reviewers to understand? Why are they so desperate for the Wii to compete on a level field with the HD consoles?

I am fine with that as long as they use the same scheme in cases where Wii wins.  When there is a version of a multiplat shooter that has MOHH2 level controls I just want them to rate the playability on the HD version a 6 or 7 then.

Hmm, I really want to get this game, but reading the review, I know I probably shouldn't.

I really don't like deathmatch, I'd rather have objective based gameplay, even without communication possibilites. Also, no vehicles? No friggin zombie mode? Only 8 players?

That said, the review is kind of weird though. Bozon keeps telling us that the control isn't perfect, but still is really good, and the campaign is really intense, yet the gameplay looks to be the weak point of the game scoring only a 7.

He praises the graphics in the review, yet it gets a lower rating on graphics than Medal of Honor. Something just isn't right here.

But yeah, should I get it? I can't wait to play a nice FPS on the Wii again, but the game just feels so gimped!

 

 Because they knew they have nothing negative to say on this game and Bozon just shooting his reasons out of proprtion. I've read it all, and with the things he say I  thought he will give this game a good score till he compared the ps360 and Wii version in page 2 which is uncalled for because the HD console and Wii version is very different. He even mentioned about why theres little gore when you kill somebody compared to the PS360 versions...



end of core gaming days prediction:

 

E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced

 

E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.

 

E3 2010- Tape runs out

I agree with Chrizum..

A lot of IGN reviews have felt like that to me recently.. I really don't know whether to trust them to be honest..

I'll be buying the game anyway though so I hope I enjoy it and it can tide me over until The Conduit..

Graphics look really good though. Check out this video, it looks better than Call of Duty 3 on the HD consoles:

Lol the HD version got a 9.5 in sound while the Wii version got an 8.5

IGN Wii is hating, there's no way sound is that different. Even sound gets scored the same on multiplat music games. I'm starting to hate the anti Wii consensus that is spread all over the gaming media. Just FUCKING review a game without bias in mind, stupid cunts.

Well MOh had 32 players online, and incredible controls. Not to mention this is a year later and the expectations are higher , and controls should be even better. Im still picking this up tommorow though, because it looks really awesome.



Support good third party games on wii. Buy games like house of the dead overkill, de blob, madworld, the conduit and boom blox.

Well people have said that MoH could handle 32 players coz the graphics were absolute shit and this game looks nice so that could be why..

Call of Duty 3, honey.

I personally don't take anything IGN says seriously, or any other review sites for that matter. These guys get paid to make these reviews. How long did they even play the game? Furthermore why do people let these sites dictate what games they should get? I know people are curious, but why not just rent the game or something? Anyway, just rent the game at least, decide for yourselves.
