Having spent the evening scurrying around the alien universe created for this new FPS, the first outing of the genre via Wiiware, with a group of online friends I'm surprised at the lack of enthusiasm within the video gaming community. The usual comparisons between the graphical output of the Wii and the other two current generation machines are being bandied about, and the general apathy towards the game is remarkable.
And misplaced.
Of the online enabled titles available on that console this game is, without doubt, the best budget online experience. The online features are a touch awkward to navigate at first but once understood they provide no barrier to the gameplay itself. The motion controls are smooth and accurate.
For a measly £7 I've had over 5 hours of high entertainment so far with the prospect of many more to come. And that is value for money.
