It's quite hard to explain the feeling of playing a FPS on the Wii for the first time, especially to an HD gamer who won't give the Wii a chance. Try it out.

I had a Wii and I've played FPS games on it. So if anyone wants my advice sell your Wii now and get an Xbox 360. Its a much better experience in both gameplay and control.

 


You're talking some serious bullshit now. Sounds like you're in denial.... Hey, I'll agree with you that most xbox360 shooters out there have better gameplay and gfx atm, but control?

I'm also pretty positive that the gameplay in the conduit will be amazing.

 

Well lets say a FPS game allowed for both 360 and Wii owners to play the same game online. Like some sort of online death match such as CoD World at War. Who do you think has the odds of performing better, people playing on a 360 control or people using a Wiimote?

 

People using a Wii Remote. 

Let me guess.  You've never tried it.

Not only did I try it... I used to own it.

Well, I own the 5 current gen systems, and if anyone wants my advice, sell all but the Wii. It's a much better experience by all means...

Really, why do people care about writing stuff like this?

You must have owned Far Cry: Vengeance.

The aiming with a Wii Remote is not only more accurate then an analog stick but it is also more fun.

The only thing that HD shooters have over the Wii in terms of controls is the turning quickness.

Quickness can be pretty important considering how fast you can die in a game like World at War. Also accuracy I find most people have better aim on a joystick. But whatever... Wiimote is the better option.

I'm glad that you agree.

I knew that you would snap out of it.

Can we atleast agree being a grown man and using a Wiimote looks completely fucking ridiculous? Its almost like finding out someone you know watches professional wrestling... you just respect them less.

It looks good, but I think it's getting a bit too much attention for a game that looks like it'll end up sitting somewhere in between Turok and FEAR 2 on the shooter scale.

If it weren't a Wii exclusive it would be getting about as much hype as Riddick is now. Which is none.
