i got used to the wii controls on codwaw pretty easily. i dont know why you didnt roan...
also, this games controls are FULLY customizable. so its impossible for you to not find a controls that fits your way of playing. and as brad said. connects your brain actions to the game as quickly as possible.
also we all are used to the regular controllers since forever. so thats why you dont find it hard, and thats why you feel you can press buttons without thinking. but the wii is still new. and non of us is used to it as much as he is used to the regular controllers. so if you play your wii constantly. you wont have to think about what to press.

in short: always use your wii to get used to it and feel its pure awesomeness!!!

You're missing the point entirely.

I shouldn't have to "get used to" motion controls. If they were any good I'd be able to catch on instantly and not have to re-work or customize the entire control scheme until I find something I'm comfortable with. That's ridiculous and I can't believe you're even suggesting that it might be better than traditional controllers and control schemes on PS3/360/PC.

There's a very good reason that the dual-stick controller has been around for so long.

witch will make it more realastic than aiming with the analog stick. so its the most realistic until now. IMO

Roan hit the nail on the head. Ideally, the controller shouldn't be about imitating real life actions, it's about connecting brain actions to the game as quickly as possible. So, while it may be more "realistic" to aim a remote at a TV in order to replicate a gun, it's arguably less immersive. Game controllers have been designed so that everything is accessible to you at any time, that you can map your thoughts to buttons and connect it quickly.

Brad does make a lot of good points here, but I don't think motion controls/pointer etc for shooters are necessarily as complicated as Roan has said.

For example, in a game like Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 for Wii, one of the best (albeit bland) FPS games on the Wii, there was only three motion gestures (in multiplayer): throw grenade, twist Wii Remote to zoom for sniper, and reload. Aside from these two, and the pointer, everything else is mapped to the buttons. I honestly do not see how these could be considered "complicated" (zooming was a tad annoying, I will admit), or require any thought of any kind.

Traditional controls are great, no doubt, but playing an FPS on the Wii refreshes the genre in someways that traditional controls simply can not do.

^ this.
also if you dont like any of the motion control options. you can change it to all buttons mode and enjoy the pointer alone. as i said, the game controls is fully customizable.

Twisting to zoom makes no sense ...

Yeah, I know. I guess it would be better than pushing the Wii Remote towards the screen though haha. Then again, they could have made zoom Up and Down on the D-Pad, but I don't remember if they already had functions.

not really surprised tbh

Yikes, it really doesn't bode well when even NINTENDO POWER is rating the game a 6.5

But yeah, not surprised. I'm sure most of the scores from other sites/mags will be in the same neighborhood.

how can they review it when it isnt released yet?

Are you kidding me?

Publishers send out early review copies to most of the major press outlets so that they can play through the whole game, review it and then publish their review on or around the release date of the game.

That review is fake. Sorry guys.

lmao that was funny XD

oops guess i fell for that one lol

you honestly expect me to read a review (I don't as they are pointless, I can tell if I am going to buy a game before reviews even come out; critique is far more important) of a game that i care next to nothing about from a site which i care next to nothing about vs taking a quick glance at the score to see the general impression of the game then waiting for it to be talked about on podcasts that i listen to with people offering their valued (to me) opinion?

reviews are just carp stupid lmao

RO_A/N says:
It's ridiculous

I read an interview with one of the guys from High Voltage. He goes on to say how they had to use a modified version of their PS2 High Voltage graphics engine because the Wii couldn't handle their PS3/360 engine.

Didn't they build a graphics engine specifically for the Wii or something?

---

^ya. that was what they first said... i donno what happened
To can you link us to where you reads that?

---

http://wii.ign.com/articles/982/982962p1.html

Here is the one that states the engine for The Conduit is a PSP/PS2/PC/XBOX/Wii engine. I only skimmed through it so I'm not sure if it the same link where they say the Wii couldn't handle their other engine.

meh mario galaxy looked fine to me though it didnt have the "extreme super awesome HDgasism" of the 360 or PSTriple it turned out just fine (not justifying nintendos often comprimising actions) but the wii aint as bad as alot of 3rd parties make it seem but it could be better and just trying to mimic the other next gen's graphics aint gonna solve much id wish nintendo would smarten up and make the wii hybrid to please both type of gamers and listen more to the people
