Why is it that the Wii has so little FPS/TPS and so many rail shooters? EA apparently did research and decided Dead Space would be better as a rail shooter... Is it because of feedback from game reviewers saying the Wii doesn't work for FPS/TPS? It is really sad that we still don't have any more third person games that control like Scarface for Wii. Honestly, I think HVS is wasting money on Gladiator A.D. It may be a fun game but I don't see it selling anywhere near as well as The Conduit or The Grinder. If they were going to venture into another genre, personally I would have gone for a TPS because it is far more popular than fighting games... I mean, when you think of the 360 you think Halo and Gears. The PS3 is Killzone 2 and Uncharted/MGS...although LBP and Final Fantasy/Gran Turismo come to mind as well... Where is the Wii's FPS/TPS combo? |
You're right about everything you said. I got Scarface and GTA4 and i'm like I wish i could control GTA like Scarface and Godfather(for the punching) but the wii will never get a game like GTA, Uncharted or Killzone because they are trying to get that wii fit money and those TPS/FPS on the wii will never see those numbers and the wii fit audience will never play those games because the control is more advance than wii sports. Which make them think if its simple like a rail shooter they could get that audience. I still know some friends that can't point and move with the analog stick. I just hoping that the PS wands will have the same button layout as the wiimote, have some type of pointer for FPS/TPS and a patch for older games to use it like MGS, RE5, Uncharted, Killzone, etc. Then i won't need the wii no more until Zelda.
As for the Gladiator A.D. game... it would be a great game if you could control it like the PS wands demo with the man hold a sword and shield. Well at least the sword part.
