FPS will always be around. Good and bad. As for red steel 2.. I believe they are still waiting on developers to jump in on the title.. I hope some good ones are in this time! lol

After the release of Metroid, and after that game shows developers how FPS's are done on the Wii, then you will see an explosion of FPS's on Wii. But until then, don't expect much. Metroid will set the standard for FPS's of the future.

WTF Farcry is heaps fun.. i have red steel AND farcry, and farcry is sooooo...soooooooo much funner, u feel WAY more in control than in redsteel,
the graphics do suck but its no were near the point were u cant play it.. just get past the first nooby half hour in Farcry and you'll be having a blast

First off, we need better graphics. The Wii is capable of much more than what we've seen. Th controls need an overhaul. IMO I think the cross hairs should remain centered and the Wiimote will rotate your entire view, much as a mouse would playing Counterstrike, or Unreal.. I think that moving your cross hairs to the side of the screen to turn in that direction is a terrible idea. Look how bad it works on Red Steel. If you move it over too far it disappears off your screen and actually ends up on the opposite side. Online and voice chat capabilities are a must. Halo, Counterstrike, Socom, all the major popular FPS franchises have great online capabilities and voice chat is such a great feature. And how about some beta testing? It's like Socom3. It was so buggy when it first came out, there were 3 major patches in the first month. Just because a console has online and can easily download software updates to fix problems, doesn't mean companies should release beta versions of games to the public and fix the bugs as they go. Take some time and release a good game.

So, for Wii to compete in the FPS market we need.

1: Better use of the Wii's graphical capabilities
2: WAY better controls
3: Online capability (which we know IS coming)
4: Online functions such as Headsets, ranking systems, friends lists.
5: We don't want no stinkin' Beta.


or at least that's my critical analysis.

I was AGREEING with him. I was pointing out how many people I hear say "funner" when it's not in the dictionary.

Same goes for "yoo cutted me in da line."

sorry, Not going to happen.
Call of Duty 3 will never hit the PC, but Call of Duty 4 will. EXCLUSIVELY. Therefore there will be neither a Call of Duty 3 for the PC, neither a Call of Duty 4 for the Wii or any other console. BUT Call of Duty 5 (which has already been "confirmed" [they said, Call of Duty 4 will be a fictional Game, but Call of Duty 5 will take place in WW2]) will hit every Platform again.

@tank

Word. But I want to add and change a bit:
1) Word. The Wii is cabable of graphics that PWN Halo2 or RE4.
2) As for your suggestion. Call of Duty 3 supports this option, but I don't own it by myself, so I don't know how good/bad those controls are.
3) Word.
4) Word.
5) Word. That's why I don't want an EA Game on my Wii

cs to wii would be horrible online
theres never been many popular FPSs on ninty systems, because in the past ninty mostly makes the good games, which arent fpss (and if you beg to differ and say MP3 is a fps! then your wrong in your own "saying your a ninty fan" mind, cause its a First Person action game i believe)

Infinity Ward is supposed to be bringing Call of Duty 4 to the PC as well as consoles.

Call of Duty 4 is said to step away from the war torn locales of World War II, instead focusing on the battlefields of present day. It is unknown if it will take the same path as Electronic Arts’ Battlefield franchise, placing the spotlight on the Middle East.

So I think you are proven wrong Secumfex it is not fictional and will come out for consoles as well
