Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Lots and lots of fun. Most intense Wii shooting game yet!
Although initially the game did not look very good, I was definitely satisfied after finishing the first mission. The first mission was dark, barely able to see the so called graphics people were raving about. However, as the game progressed, the graphics were truly on display. The battlefields, scenery, tanks, weapons, soldiers, everything was clearly defined. You may find the scene of air support missiles completely destroying a given area that you coordinated particularly pleasing to the eye!

Wow, talk about being immersed into war. All the sounds of war - gunshots, the grenade explosions, the Banzai and Nazi screaming into your ears, commands and objectives, and much much more were orchestrated perfectly.

Controls:
Well, I started out using just the Wiimote and nunchuk and I was just plain frustrated. Immediately, me and my brother went out to get the Wii Zapper. With Wii Zapper in hand, you'll experience a game experience that other consoles cannot offer. The Wii Zapper is fairly accurate once you get the hang of it. It's hard to go wrong when the controls are based on the natural stance of shooting. It beats sitting down and aiming with a D-pad or analog stick.

I must say that this game is a must for ANY WII console owner. It's an experience you cannot miss. One more thing: keep your forearms in shape, you'll get tired very soon!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - call of duty world at war, NOT for beginners
This might be a great game but NOT if you are new to FPS. There is no tutorial, No directions came with the game. I should not have to look online, even then all that would be given are cheats. (why buy if your going to cheat). I am sure if you have experience with these kinds of games, it would be amazing. If you are a beginer to the "style"... I think it a waste of money. Start with an easier game. Had I known I would not have gotten it for my husband. I could find better things to do with $50. especially on the Wii.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Another Wii-son to Love my Wii
This is definitely one of the Best FPS games I've eer played and part of it has to due with the motion controls of the Wii. I, unlike the top reviewer, own the Perfect Shot gun instead of the Wii Zapper which allows the same controls but with better control over movements. I know that sounds repetitive but it's true. Because you hold the nunchuk with your left (or right if you are left handed) and your other hand holds the handgun. I originally bought this for Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles where it works great also.

But back to the review, I find the Wii version to be better, and I have played it on X-Box also for the same reason I still prefer the Wii versions of games like Madden 09, Star Wars The Force Unleashed, Need for Speed and the Wii console overall. It's not all about the graphics for me. I actually prefer great gameplay and simpler controls. In my opinion using the Perfect shot and aiming at the screen actually makes it more realistic any way because nobody fights wars in real life with joystics and mashing buttons. You aim and shoot. Even sniping is more fun this way. There is even a feature where you can move the Wiimote forward and you will stab with your bayonet or gut butt the bad guys.

There is a reason that many bars are now putting Wii's in and so are old folks homes and now even Marriot and Renaissance Hotels are adding them to their business suites. Wii is just more fun. So great game. I agree that the Russian Part is more fun because it is original at least to me. If you do get this on Wii I STRONGLY recommend investing in the Perfect Shot to add to the realistic feeling which is cheap and can actually be found right here on Amazon and Have Fun!!!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME GAME
This has to be the greatest game that I have ever seen for wii, or at least the best shooting game! This game deserves 1000 stars if it were possible. The game's image are nearly real, it has a great story line, where you go through an assault with Sgt. Renvous, or something like that, and the game gives you a good time. The game has a long campaign, good though, and good multiplayer. The game includes a snipper mission, assaults, and the normal killing routine. There are very few glitches. I have seen one or two. The only glitch that was worth happening, is in one level, a sniper was running at a wall, went through the wall, and I am assuming he died. There are very few bad things, such as: in multiplayer, there is none, unless wifi. This game is not like halo. The only way to play with other people, is by having wifi. You can not play against the people in the room. Just on wifi. A thing I don't get, is that you can play wifi. You can play with two people. Why not four? I don't understand. Another thing, it is two player on campaign. I thought, oh, great, my brothers can help me. I was wrong, there is no split screen. There are two aimers on one screen. It is hard to snipe a guy in a window across a window with a aimer in your way. It makes it more difficult, when it is suppose to be better and easier. Even though this game has some bad things, it still is great game, amazing. It deserves five stars, period!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - brief review from a casual wii user
I am not a big gamer and this is the first FPS game I have for the wii so I can't really compare it to other wii FPS games. Being a family man, most of my time is spent with mario kart or wii fit. That being said, I love playing this game! So far, I have actually preferred the campaign over the online multiplayer. This may be due to the fact that I am not that experienced and when I have played online, I have been easy prey for the other players. :-) I use the wii zapper and think the controls are excellent, especially melee, which occurs by shaking the zapper. Graphics are plenty good IMO. I will reiterate what another reviewer wrote about it being inappropriate for children. A game about war should be violent and foul-mouthed. Therefore, realize it should not be played around young kids.

Perhaps the only improvement that could be made is if the campaign could be played online with other people. Otherwise, I am 100% satisfied.
